Ok, well part of the changes that I talked about in my last post have actually now happened. We have put our pictures up on Flickr. To see our pictures from now on, head over to http://www.flickr.com/photos/tjamimms/. Hopefully soon I'll get our domain name transferred to this blog and then if you type in http://www.tjamimms.com/ it will come here. Not to worry though, you won't have to change any bookmarks or favorites that you may already have pointing here, http://tjmimms.blogspot.com/ will still work.
Now for some Austin updates....I think many of you may already know but Austin LOVES the water. He loves playing on the steps in our subdivision pool. If we would let him, he would jump off into the deeper water. He's feerless with it right now. We can't let him try that though since he has his tubes in his ears. I think if he was able to actually try it, he may not be as brave after that ;-).
Seems like every time we go to the pool, a helicopter will fly over. Austin now loves helicopters too. It's happened so much at the pool that now as soon as we get to the pool he will start pointing up to the sky and looking for the helicopter to fly over. He's big on helicopters and planes. Even if he can't find the plane, if he hears it he will point to the sky.
Austin now also makes 'vroom vroom' sounds for cars. He'll run his hand back and forth across his chest or stomach and call out 'Vroom Vroom!!' When he is talking about a car or truck. The whole hand across the chest/stomach thing started with him having a car in his hand and rolling back and forth across his stomach/chest. Now he'll do it with or without the car.
Jen's been talking about her having to go back to work next Monday. I'm not sure what the big deal is, I've been working all summer! ;-) Just kidding honey! We both think Austin is going to have a bit of a hard time readjusting to being dropped off at preschool. When we leave him with childcare at church or with anyone, if he sees us leaving he loses it and starts crying. Sometimes it's almost the kind of crying where you have to tell him 'Ok Austin...take a breath son....breathe Austin!' He has just really gotten used to being at home with mommie. We know he'll be fine but it's gonna take a few days.
I've started working at my new school. I started at the beginning of July. It's going well. I've had to learn alot. I think I'm going to like it. It's only 2.5 miles from the house so it can't be too bad right ;-). The next couple months are going to be really busy though as school starts up again.
I think that pretty much brings you all (ya'll for the southerners) up to date. If I've left anything out, I'm sure Jen will post about it.
