Overcoming My Laziness

I've slightly recovered from last week's bout of blogging laziness so here I am with our weekly update. Last week was an absolute blur let me tell ya! It was CORONA week here at Wright Patt and all the Air Force's combatant commanders and major command commanders decended upon the AFMC headquarters. To add some extra fanfare to the event we decided to throw in General Wolfenbarger's promotion, General Hoffman's retirement and their change of command to the mix. We. Were. Busy!
The 4-star promotion was incredible and as I mentioned in a previous post, one for our Air Force's history books. I was working during the ceremony but did get to take a pause to watch and listen to her remarks. I feel very fortunate to have been able to be there! :) My job that day, and for the rest of the week, was to escort our Air Force Chief of Staff, General Norton Schwartz's wife, Mrs. Suzie Schwartz. We spent two full days together while she toured numerous different organizations across the base. What an impressive woman! Needless to say I'm really digging this job and all the opportunities it has afforded me in only one month.

On Friday Jace headed out to Las Vegas for Pete Foster's bachelor party. He organized the weekend for 12 guys and based on the feedback he got he may have a future in party planning! ;) While he was away Easton and I did some mommy/son bonding. It was a perfect weekend after a long week of work. Here are some of our adventures:
Just Easton and Mommy

Now says "ball"...and picks it up and throws it
over and over again :)
Is it obvious he's hungry?

Loves the magnets on the fridge

...and his blankie

When he's tired he does Downward Dog when I say "night, night"

This is him practicing putting his face in the water. He loves it and did
really well at swim lessons this Saturday...even went underwater!

Look at all that hair :) 

Hey, heeeey!

This was today at the splash pad in Huber Heights!
 

SO MUCH FUN!!!

So that was pretty much our weekend. I'm hoping this week flies by because Uncle Jeff says "adios" to the DR and arrives in Dayton on Saturday night!!! Hope you all have a great week :)

Introducing...Easton Douglas Anders!

Easton Douglas Anders - 3 days old More pictures @ http://www.our365.com/ He's here, he's here!!!  Jace and I welcomed our son Easton Douglas to the world this past Saturday, April 16th at 4:22 PM and we couldn't be more proud.  It was an awesome experience...not so much in the "incredibly cool, can't wait to do it again" context but genuinely in AWE of how mother nature and modern medicine can work together to ease a woman and efficiently deliver a baby.  Before I tell you all a little bit about our story (again, no worries, I won't blast all the nitty gritty across your screen) I must say a HUGE thank you to our staff at Winchester Hospital.  Though I know not a single of of those doctors, nurses and other staff members will read this they will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the outstanding service and love they showed all three of us!!  They exceeded any expectations Jace and I might have had and just had to throw that out there. ...

My Bachelorette Weekend

Jace has been in MN since Thursday braving the cold with  Team Franchise at the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championship .  The team made it to Sunday again this year but unfortunately couldn't get by the "Pulled Hammies" this morning to advance to the finals.  Better luck next year, boys! :( So, since he's been gone I've been catching up on projects around the homestead since it's been so damn cold outside.  On Thursday night I scanned in about 80 old family photos that I had received over the years from my Aunt Kathleen.  I decided to do this because I'm building an online baby book for mini-Ma$e and you can add pictures - thought it'd be fun to add some old family photos.  Anyway, I won't overload you with too many but here are some of my favorites...the rest can be viewed here . Moving on... Friday started off with another snowstorm - excellent.  Hanscom was open for business...well, that is, for everyone ex...

Trunk or Treat 2013

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
