Miles Away

This blog is dedicated to my wonderful son, Miles. Many of our friends and family don't live in Reno, so this is a virtual way to see how he's doing and how quickly he's growing.

The most recent photo

Granted, it's not the greatest or most flattering, but it's from this morning at my folks' house. Apparently, it was the only way they could get him into his high chair to eat breakfast.

Feeling guilty...

So I've been feeling very guilty lately about not posting on this blog. Not because I think people are looking forward to reading regular updates on how my son is doing, but because I feel I owe it to him to keep a diary of what he does and how much he means to us.

These last four months have been rather crazy (literally) in our family. I finally quit a job that I had been working at for almost four years, and it was one of the hardest things I had ever done. It was the worst place for me because I was miserable being there, and I was starting to take that home with me. I now work for an amazing company as a recruiter and absolutely love it. They believe in my abilities so much that I am not micromanaged (like I was at my last job) and am getting paid almost twice what I was making.

Because I'm getting paid more, I figured it was time to move back in with my husband. He is a professional fighter and has been living and training in a small town about 90 miles away from where we had been living. Miles and I first stayed at my parents' house, then we stayed with my cousin for a few months. Living together and eating together and sleeping together and laughing together and loving together is the greatest. I can't believe we had gone eight months without it.

So, with looking for a new job, getting a new job, and moving to a new city (and state for that matter) -- all while being a full-time mom -- I have been rather busy. I have a lot of updates and pictures that I will be posting in the near future.

Stay tuned...
