Where has the time gone?

I am really getting behind on blogging these days... maybe it is because we have been house-hunting every weekend, feeding Elliott snacks, working non-stop or being ill with stomach flu.   The good news is, the chaos is beginning to come to an end.  We finally found our dream house!  It is in Coppell, which is a small suburb of Dallas, located near the airport.   Growing up, Chris and I both had dreams of having a house with a pool and our new house has a gorgeous pool!   We are so excited and cannot wait to have our friends over- start looking for airfare now. 

At daycare last week, Elliott's teacher asked me if I had snacks for Elliott.  I didn't know 7 month olds needed snacks, so I don't have anything for him.  She explained to me that the other kids all have puffs  and that Elliott tries to grab them, but gets upset when he can't have them.  After hearing this sad little story, I made a trip to Target to buy Elliott snacks.  He wasn't sure what to do with them and didn't understand how to put them in his mouth, but I'm sure he will learn how to do that quickly. 

Work is going well for Chris and I.  We are both extremely busy- which means job security, at least for a little while.  We both got sick with stomach flu of sorts last week, but are feeling great now - that is true love, seeing each other in that disgusting condition!
