Puppy Plus

There have been and continue to be so many changes in my life and the lives of my family members. My wife while continuing to care for our baby son Alexander is now studying for her NCLEX for the second time. She is using an online preparation course we purchased from Kaplan. So far she has found it to be quite helpful. We also just got a puppy. The puppy is a nine week old German Shepherd and Siberian Husky mix that we have named Odin. I have spent the better part of a week over the extended Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend trying to crate/house train the Odin. So far it's working, but I am very tired. We also have some changes that will involve a redistricting of churches and new responsibilities on my part. All in all it makes for some pretty hectic times. Hopefully the dust will settle soon. I need to see where I am going. Oh and getting some sleep would be nice too.

Okay so this entry is about four years late. Four years ago my little Olivia came into this world. And ever since she has been ball of energy and spunk.

Olivia changes every day and her sparkling eyes light up the room. Olivia keep your sparkle and keep the light that you have because it brings me joy!

Sugar and Spice

Just about everything is ready for Isabella's arrival. We've painted Isabella and Lex's room a soft yellow or off-white and we painted the closet and trim a color called nature's green. We aslo rearranged the room and added a crib, changing table and several other things to make the room look really nice. We put together the new stroller that Liz was given at her baby shower at work and put the new carseat stand that goes with the stroller in the truck: the vehicle that Liz will be using. Over the past several weeks we've made additional changes to both the inside and outside of the house. Liz painted our bathroom a bright light green. We raked up the leaves in the backyard (although more have fallen since) and we put in a true compost pile in the back right corner with wire fencing that Liz attached to some metal stakes. I also planted a red oak in the front yard to replace the maple tree we had cut down and I planted a photinia bush to close up the gap between o...
