No internet

We have now been in our new apartment for about 2 weeks and really love it. We LOVE Wilsonville....our new wee town. As stated in the title we don't have the internet in our place yet, so I occasionally come over to the clubhouse to check my email, but Jack is never patient long enough for a post...so this will be short.
So, Ryan was sworn in as an official lawyer on thursday of last week. It was a fairly short, but sweet ceremony. It still hasn't sunk in that he won't be going back to college. We have to really grow up now.
Jack got a really bad cold last week and when i took him to the doctors it turns out he has contracted baby asthma. He has an inhaler that he will only have to take for a few days and then we should be rid of the problem, but it may return when he gets older. He wasn't enjoying the inhaler at all at first, but is quite used to it now and kind of enjoys getting it.
My wee brother, Euan, who is the third oldest in my family, just got engaged to a lovely American girl from Utah. They are getting married this December and I am so excited to go back to Utah for the wedding and see some family. They might come back to live in the states again once Euan has finished his degree....I would love some of my family over here!
That's about all just now. Things are good. And we hope to start looking for a house in the next few months.

Late pictures





A few weeks ago I finally got around to taking Jack in for some professional pictures. I wanted to get them done on his first birthday, but being the boisterous wee one that he is there were always bumps, scratches, and bruises somewhere on that wee face of his. Here are just a few from the shoot. Jack wasn't nearly as cooperative as he had been when we got the 6 month ones done, but then again he wasn't walking back then.

In additional news, we are moving into our new apartment on the 10th of this month. We found a place we really like in Wilsonville. Wilsonville is really a lovely area. The whole town is so clean and it just has a very safe feel to it. We have lots of nice wee parks right by our place and good shopping too. So until we find a house, it'll do.
