It has been awhile since I have blogged about a general life update. It's funny because I told myself a couple of weeks ago that I should blog about all of this even amidst the uncertainty and chaos instead of waiting to be on the other side. And of course, I didn't get around to it until today, and things are definitely much brighter now haha! But I wanted to write about this, mostly so I can look back and remember how God carried us through this season.
Read MoreI thought I would take some time to blog about our apartment hunting journey and move. It's a bit long and perhaps a bit boring to some, but I love to look back and see how God perfectly wove this story...
Read MoreAs we close out 2014, with a little less than 12 hours left as I write this post, I just wanted to share some of our thoughts as a family throughout the past year. It has been a pretty crazy year for us, everything from illnesses to job changes, to adjusting to having a toddler now! But It has been a great year too! We rang in the new year last year in Oklahoma, at a good friends home. Aly was about 6 weeks old, and asleep for the night, Brooke was playing Supernintendo with Jamy and I was laying on the couch near by watching TV. Fast forward to today, a lot of things happened from then until now.
Read MoreSince I am no longer posting weekly about Miss Alynne, I decided that I want to take that time to blog about various other (mostly mommy) topics. Between tot school posts, a monthly Aly post, and these, you should hear from me quite often haha!
So today I wanted to take some time to write about why I love raising Alynne in New York City.
Read MoreThis has certainly been a wild year for Brooke and I. It started off with both her and I being sick on New Year's Eve 2012 and going to bed before midnight. As first month of 2013 progressed and the holidays were over we had gotten back into a routine of work and school since at the time both of us where in graduate school and Brooke had just transferred to the CUNY Graduate center.
Read MoreThe wonderful drawing was done by none other than my lovely wife. She drew it on a card that she gave to me on our one year anniversary and at that time she was six months pregnant and I was two weeks post op after having had ACL reconstruction. Looking back at this image made me think about a few things about marriage, not that I am at all the authority on marriage nor do I have years of experience and wisdom under my belt, but I wanted to share what I've learned in the last year for anyone who would care to read.
Read MoreSo it's been a while since I've written a post, Brooke has written the last three I think and I've enjoyed reading what she has to say about Aly and looking at all the pictures of her crafts that I've seen her make these past few weeks. But this post is more about what's been going on in our lives the last 2 weeks or so. Firstly I had ACL surgery last Friday, August 16th.
