August - October updates

Thing going on...

1. If you did not know, we are having another baby. He (according to the ultrasound technician) is due January 12 or 14 , 2008. We are all very excited. Jo is doing well but is having trouble getting comfortable.

2. Noah Aaron Pruss, son of Aaron and Jen Pruss was delivered via c-section on Friday, October 5th, 2007. He came home Sunday morning and all are reportedly doing well.

3. Elle continues to shock and awe us. Climbing on everything including chairs, couches, beds, playscapes, etc. She is quick to go both up and down the stairs. Loves kicking and throwing various toys around. She has also taken a liking to the bike trailer. I am so pleased she enjoys riding in it now.

4. We took Elle to an Apple Orchard for fresh apples and cider. We also took a wagon ride around. Elle was not terribly excited about this at first but warmed up to it after a few minutes.

5. I am still in school. I have two classes this fall and two more in the winter and that is it. Very exciting. Just in time to start looking for another job because my employment with Pfizer is scheduled to end in June 2008.

There are many pictures to update. I hope to get them up soon.

Until later...

It's Daddy's Birthday!

We'll celebrate when he gets home from work, we got Balloons for him! Ok, so really they are for Elle but it is because it's Jason's birthday.

Weekend away

Elle went on her first visit to Caseville this past weekend. We (jo and elle) went up with Grandma and Aunt Karen and Jake, Uncle Dick came up for a few hours with Lucky too. We all only went down to the water once, but when her shoes and socks came off she went running right towards it. It was a little cool outside so she didn't get to do any swimming or actual play time in the water this time. We did do some shopping and Elle now has her own Caseville t-shirt that she can wear when daddy wears his sweatshirt!

Diver down

Elle has been taking swim lesson at the Livonia Rec Center. This last Monday (July 9, 2007) she did her first dive. She was not exactly what I would call thrilled...but she at least kept playing in the water. We have a couple of lessons left. Let's see what else she can do.

Toddler

So on July 4th Elle turned 18 months old. Officially a toddler in our minds. From what I hear from Johanna... Elle took it to heart! She was wild crazy on July 5th. Into everything should could find and was just a whirlwind of activity.

I hope to have Johanna up and running on the blog and pictures very soon. So this will hopefully lead to more regular updates.

Until then...

Welcome!

Welcome to the new blog location!

Although I like the style and layout of the old blog it is too slow. I hope the performance of the new blog space is better.

The pictures are being re-located as well. This will give everyone the option of purchasing prints of their favorites.
