I know I am really bad about posting. We got busy with work and Mikey and time snuck up on me. We had a great Christmas with Mike's stepmom Karen in central Florida. It's on a rural river so it is super relaxing and a much needed break from all our stress. Mikey got a few fun toys and we got a short vacation (present enough for us). As I'm sure is no surprise to anyone, Mikey is super active and constantly on the go. He loves to go places and wants to walk all over (still needs help with that from us). He is really working on crawling but gets mad when he can't get places fast enough. He has a walker that he loves and he runs after Tibo all over the house. Giggling all the way :)
As an update on the rest of us, I am no longer working at the emergency clinic. There was a whole variety of reasons for me quitting there but the most pressing was that it simply wasn't a happy place to work anymore. I'm going to be working part time at a regular family clinic after the holidays with occasional relief days for the humane society. Hopefully I will be back to full time in March but for now I am loving the extra time with Mikey and the break from the recent stress.
This next month (February), we are finally going to visit the family. We will be spending a few days in Logan and then a few days in Palm Springs. We are looking forward to meeting my sis-in-law Jamie and nephew Austin and introducing Mikey to everyone :)

Wow! Mikey's getting so big!! I'd love to get together for lunch sometime when you're in Logan. Let me know your plans. :o)
YEAH!!!!! I'm so excited for you guys to come out here. I can't wait to meet you all. Hopefully Jon and Mary can get out too and we can all have a "family reunion"
Is there anything specific you want to do while your here that we can get planned and ready for you?????
Wow, I am disturbingly out of the loop; I hadn't heard about your job! I'm glad it's a positive change for you, and hopefully everything will work out just the way you need it to.
Mikey is COMPLETELY adorable, and I'm sure Karen loved having you guys for Christmas! Our holidays were insanely stressful, but also really fun, and now that it's over, I'm just feeling really ready to start a new year with less stress!
We REALLY want to come in February, but I think we're just gonna watch the weather before we can commit to coming. Airfare for 5 people is too expensive, and February is a really risky time to drive over Donner Summit. I'm also going on a girl's week-end/ski trip with my old college roomies to Idaho in February, so I'm trying to figure out the logistics of how I can be traveling so much in the first few weeks of that month. Anyway, I'll let you know what our plans are, and if we can't make it to Utah, maybe we could hook up in LA for the one day that you'll be there. Do you already have plans with Mike's fam for that day?
I'm glad you guys had a good Christmas, and I wish you the best of luck in your new job. It's always hard to start working in a new place, so I'll keep my fingers crossed that it is a smooth and easy transition for you.
Take care, Jill! And Happy New Year!
Pat and I will be going to Miami-Key West in April. Maybe we can stop by and see you for a few minutes. this will be my first trip back in many many years. I am so excited!
