New Changes

You may notice that I've changed my blog a bit. I also added pics. I figured 1) new year, new layout; and 2) things in my life are changing so why shouldn't my blog? : )

I'm an autie again!!! My cousin had a beautiful baby boy on January 11th. His name is Brendan Avery and I'm so in love with him! Mother and baby are doing excellent. Alex & I visited them in the hospital two times and will visit them again this weekend at home. I can't wait to see him...I'm, like, addicted!!! He makes Zoolander-like faces, and when I told him I would take him shopping when he gets a little older his eyes got wider! He's freaking awesome.

The day after we saw Brendan the first time, Alex and I got calls for an interview. The interview went well and we got the jobs! We're working on another temporary project for a big firm downtown and we're very excited. We should start sometime in February...they're waiting for the software to be uploaded and the workstations to be set up. We are definitely getting anxious, but trying to enjoy the last of our free time.

My 31st birthday is tomorrow. I feel alright about it. I'm not freaking out about getting older. I don't really think we're doing anything to celebrate. Alex & I were going to go out to dinner, but St. Louis is supposed to be getting at least 6 inches of snow tomorrow, so I'm not holding my breath. My parents already gave me a bunch of new clothes for my birthday...I really needed them for the new job!

So the next time I blog, I'll be a 31-year old!
