That's it for now, folks!

It has been over a year and a half in the making and I hate to say it but I'm going to have to take a long sabbatical from updating this website. I just have so little free time on my hands these days (juggling between taking care of Kate, being on the road for work, getting in shape, reading, watching junk on TV, etc.) that I'm going to have to give up on updating our little website for now. As much as it pains me to admit it, most of you can find me on Facebook (if you haven't already) where I'll be posting up current photos of Kate periodically. Thanks for being a loyal reader of this site and I hope to get back to it someday, but that'll be it for now.

Here's to '09!

I apologize for the extended hiatus, I can't say that I haven't had time since I've been in Colorado for the last 3 weeks without work travel. I guess it is the holidays and the relaxation mode that comes with it. I sure hope you had a great holiday and a very Happy New Year!

It's hard to believe that Kate is 16 months old already, while we are aware that it is completely cliche Jeff and I were talking today about how her life is flying by. She's such a dream. She is signing and talking more and more everyday, which is a joy to establish the two-way communication that life is made of.

Christmas time was fantastic, we were up in the mountains with Jeff's parents and brother. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable time. Santa was very good to Kate, she received lots of pull toys, which are her current favorite toys. She's also become a bit addicted to reading. It is book after book in this house. She brings one over and reaches up to you to bring her on your lap and start reading. After that book is done she scrambles off your lap to go find another to read. I have to replace the 10 or so books in our living room with new ones every 3-4 days so that at least we have some variety in the board book marathons!

Now we are back to the routine of things in 2009. I'm leaving for my first business trip of 2009 tomorrow AM, which will entail leaving the house at 5:30 in full business-suit style. It'll be an early morning!
