Hey there, Squeakers (a.k.a. Mark) is now falling asleep, and Ethan has just left for work. Thought I would give people some updates and pictures. On Feb. 3, 2008, we had Mark blessed and we wanted to thank everyone that was able to come out and share that special time with us.






Ethan has now officially quit working construction and is working at Armstrong (an internet, cable, and phone company for those not familiar) as an internet technician. They are still only training him, but he really seems to be enjoying it. As many of you know, he loves working with computers, and this job will give him opportunities to grow, so it is a dream come true for our family. I am still work a couple hours a week at Clearview Mall movie theater, keeps us in free entertainment. I am truly enjoying being a mom. It is hard and anyone that says it isn't, is not looking at it closely. It is easily exhausting, but keeping to schedule helps a lot. Mark is doing extremely well. He is growing fast and most people think he looks older than he is. We just started him on rice cereal and he really seems to be taking to it. I like it, because he sleeps longer at night now. He is a lucky little boy, he had two new cousin born within the last two weeks. Ethan's sister Sara, had a little girl on March 25th, Arianna, and my sister, Vanessa, had a little boy, Caleb on April 4. I was excited about it, it means cousins his own age. I hated going to family reunions where there was no one your own age. Now he has one on both sides.

Margaret,

What a beautiful family you have. Thanks for the updates.
We had Benjamin blessed at the beginning of March. He wore the outfit that Jason, Matthew, and Jared wore. My dad, in-laws, Katie, and Jared got to come out for the blessing.
Ben is a cryer! I'm not sure if he's coliky or just an ornery little cuss.
Take care!
