The Day Has Finally Arrived.... Lori's Last Day!

At 5 PM today Lori will officially move from Career Mom to Stay At Home Mom! Needless to say, we are both very very excited at this new endevour!

I asked Lori last night if she will miss work... her reply, "I will miss the people." It is hard to leave a job where your coworkers are close to you and a part of your life. Lori has known most of her coworkers for nearly 10 years, so I am sure it will be hard for her. But on Monday morning while I am getting ready for work and she does have to do a thing but take care of Ty, I am sure she will be loving it!

We feel very priviledged to even think about her staying home, let along actually doing it. In today's world, economy and life, it has almost become a neccesity for both parents to work to pay the bills and put food on the table. I feel very greatful we are able to do it.

As for Ty, on Sunday he turned 5 months old. It certainly does not seem 5 months since we were in the hospital but it has. He also has had a big week of firsts... Finally getting over his First cold, First taste of Apple Sauce and First taste of Pears. And boy, does he love the food!


It is so funny to watch him eat! As soon as he sees his little bowl and spoon, his eyes get really big and his arms and legs start moving around like he is jumping for joy! :-) He knows it is food and he knows it is time to eat! After he gets the first spoon full, he looks like a little bird with his mouth open. Looks like he has a BIG appetite, just like daddy!

We also laugh at some of the goofiest things... like mommy and daddy's funny sounds and faces. Check out the videos below and see if you giggle! :-)
