There have been many changes in our lives in recent weeks (many of which have kept us away from home and away from the computer). After a full summer spent traveling the East Coast (literally) it was finally time for the unemployment tour to come to an end. BJ went back to work in mid-August, he took a job doing Communications for Lockhead Martin in Greenville. He is still learning the ropes in a big corporate environment, but its a welcome change from the crazy unpredictable world of politics. So a move to Greenville is on the horizon - though we are staying put in Lexington until early 2011 until employment is finalized.
My plan was to go back to work this fall as well, but with so much up in the air I'm trying to embrace the role of stay at home mom and single parent a few days a week until we make a final decision on moving. Its truly a blessing to be able to stay home with Gus though long-term I'm not sure if staying at home is the best option for me, it weighs on me a lot. We spend our days on the move too - we go to the gym, church, story time, and the zoo - we do something fun and different together almost everyday!
Gus crawled for the first time this weekend and even more today - he is now truly a little Man on the Move. He will be 10 months old next week - its so hard to believe - and it really does go by way too fast. He continues to be a happy little boy, though he is giving us a run for our money in the sleep department lately because he doesn't want to miss a minute of this big fun world that he's discovering daily. He still goes through days and weeks of what seems like all the symptoms of teething - but continues to warm our hearts with a toothless grin. He can say mama, dada, baba and likes to clap and wave. His favorite toys are the remote control, mommy's cell phone, and wooden spoons. He loves music and books so much - Brown Bear is a favorite.
