Growing Family

Good day! I hope that you are doing well. I thought that I had better update you on some of our recent life changes. I will start with the small stuff and finish with the big stuff! I have decided to illustrate our life with pictures.
1. RT finished his BBA
This was a fantastic accomplishment for our family! It is true that my name is on it, but it is a success for our family! And on top of that, Jennifer did a lot of work in helping me accomplish this. She did a lot of reading, correcting, encouraging, and was very patient with me through it all!









2. Isaiah is growing up.
As you can see Isaiah is no longer a mini Gr., instead he is his own person and loves to be in the middle of things. He likes attention, and gets quite upset when he can't see what is going on.

He is now 4+ months old now and he is days away from sitting up by himself, and weeks away from running around with his brother!

3. And Jennifer is back at work. She is amazing! I don't know what I did to be lucky enough to have her as my wife! And my boys will hopefully quickly understand how much of an angel mother she is!
Jennifer is looking forward to me finding a job, I am sure more than I am! I love you sweetheart!
3.













We got a pet fish. It is a Beta crown tail, who's name is Bruce the fish. Gabe named our fish. Bruce has a deep red color that can be seen in the sunlight. Gabe helps daddy feed Bruce every morning. We thought that we should start small when it comes to being pet owners.

4.
I am looking for a job. I don't want to get back into retail, and I don't want to get into sales. I have been applying at Rio Tinto, the U of U, IHC, England Trucking, and a host of other random companies. I have some talents and characteristics that can't be taught or learned, where as job duties and responsibilities can be.

I have started running in the mornings to get back in shape, and to lose some of my winter hibernation weight. My goal is 215, and I have lost 10 pounds so far, only 10 more to go!












5. And the big news! Gabe is potty training! He is
actively going #1 and #2 on the toilet! He is funny! He sits on it backwards, to avoid falling in, and to watch what is going on down there. He laughs every time he goes #2! It is awesome to watch him grow up so much! I am so proud of him. Way to go Monster Gr.
This is what our family is doing right now. We may not have the most exciting or interesting life, but we like it, and are growing every day.
I am a lucky man to have Jennifer as my wife, and a blessed daddy to have Gabe and Isaiah for my sons. I couldn't have put such a wonderful family together on my own. I have to thank our Father in Heaven for these, my dearest blessings!
