An even longer time, no blog

So, our last blog was over a year ago, and boy have things changed.  In a nutshell here's what has happened:

we got pregnant in February

I got a job with a neurosurgeon in Birmingham in May...and then I quit that job to take another job in Opelika with a urology group in June, which means that we have since moved to Opelika.

I turned the big 30 in June and we celebrated by going to Atlanta to a Braves game and the aquarium on the hottest day of the year.  Kimberly was a trooper since she was about 5 1/2 months pregnant at the time and it was only 104 outside.



So, I started working in Opelika in July while Kimberly stayed in Birmingham to finish up work, pack the house, etc.  We closed on a great house at the end of July and promptly moved in.


We unpacked all the months of July, August, and September (we don't like unpacking) and got reacquainted with Opelika.  For those who don't know, I grew up in Opelika and Kimberly lived there for a few years as well and she had always wanted to move to a smaller town.  Having grandparents close by with a kid on the way made it an easy choice.

October came around and we were in full baby mode.  Wells (we were expecting a boy and that's his name) was to be due at the end of the month, so final preparations were being done...until he decided to come two weeks early.  To read about that eventful evening I will refer you to Kimberly's blog here.






So here we are January 1, 2013.  I'm going to try and update more than once a year.  Who knows if I'll have time to with a newborn at home...
