Well, it's true, we are still alive and well, we have just been out of the blogging scene for quite some time. But we have a good excuse. . .we have been having tons of fun traveling across the country on a great adventure. . .and honestly, I just didn't want to blog. So here is a little update on us and I"ll post some catch up pics later (hopefully).
William is 11 months old and is about the funnest kid ever. He loves to laugh (and does so all day long) and loves just about everything else! He walks all around the furniture, but hasn't taken that first step yet (but we are not in any hurry for that), he loves to talk to himself and to us, but so far the only words we can understand are mommy, daddy, dog, and bottle. He loves toothbrushes, footballs, dogs, picks (like the hair kind. . .weird, I know), trains, and throwing anything he can get his hands on (which is cute unless it is during dinner time).
Roland is in his fourth year of medical school (hooray) and we are starting the interview process for residencies. This year has been great so far because we get to see so much more of him and he doesn't have to take any more tests (double hooray!). I am staying home with William and loving going on walks and playing with friends and doing projects (when I can). Overall, life is great!
Here are a few pics:
William LOVES riding on the fourwheeler with Grandpa Batt!
With cousin Grant in Idaho. . .his cousins LOVE him and are so nice to him!
Cousin James playing soccer. . .it was a great game and as James would say, "we were the champions" or, in the spirit of true sportsmanship. . ."good game, I win"!
William intently watching the soccer game!
This is how I found William one morning after he was supposed to be taking his morning nap. . .he had been "napping" for about 45 minutes when I went to check on him and found this. . .what a turkey!
I left him for two seconds to throw away his dirty diaper and came back to find he had pulled out all the wet wipes from the box. . .he loves being mischievous and I found him yesterday pulling everything out of the garbage. . .only minutes after I found him playing by the toilet. . .only seconds after he rolled over during a diaper change and got some icky stuff on the floor. . .I LOVE THIS KID!!!
