New to the whole blogging thing...

This should be interesting. I figured it would be an easy way for family and friends to keep updated with Brandon, Lily and myself. We'll see how it goes!

The latest on Lily-she's rolling over from her belly to her back! Brandon and I are of course proud parents and think she's a genius! It's amazing how quickly she's growing. Soon she'll be all over the place and I'll be chasing her around. She's such a happy girl...hardly every fussy and always ready to greet Mommy and Daddy with one of her beautiful smiles.

The latest on Brandon-he's still working at Dick's Sporting Good, in the Lodge department. The holiday season is soon upon us and with that comes long hours at work. He'll be working every Saturday from Nov. 29th until Christmas and many hours in between. We'll both be happy when the holidays are over!

The latest on Jessi-she's busy with school and staying home with Lily. Classes are starting to pick up and papers are due! She's ready for Christmas break (and to be finished with graduate school) neither of which could be here soon enough. Her days are filled with Lily, watching her grow and change all the time and her nights are full of class and homework.

In other news: This will be the first year that Brandon and I are staying in Bloomington for the holidays. We've decided that we'd like to start our own family traditions (aka, Jessi fixing Thanksgiving dinner and Christmas dinner) instead of traveling down to Springfield with Lily. We have no desire to split time between our two families (which would mean missing out on our own family time together) and would rather stay home and experience the holidays with our own little family for the first time. It should be an interesting holiday season! We're really excited about spending Thanksgiving & Christmas with our daughter and each other!
