December 2010
Dear Family and Friends,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We hope that 2011 brings happiness and joy to all of you. This last year has been an eventful one for our family.
My husband is officially half way done with law school. After a year and a half of living here we are beginning to get used to the traffic, city life, and increased cost of living. This is good because my husband recently accepted an internship here at a great law firm, which means that, if all goes according to plan and they make him a permanent offer, we may be living here full-time. This year my husband is working on the Law Review journal, working as a writing adviser for first-year law students, and participating in moot court. He is also working as an apartment coordinator. He recently got called to serve in the nursery of our church, which he is very happy about since he gets to spend time with Jif.
I finally got my nursing license transferred here, but I don't see myself going back to work any time soon if I can help it. I keep myself very busy during the day taking care of Jif and Reece. I am currently serving as Relief Society President in our church, which keeps me extremely busy. It has been a very difficult calling, but she is learning and growing a lot through it.
Jif will turn 2 years old at the end of January. He is a very active and energetic boy. He is absolutely fearless and loves to climb and jump, which makes his mom very nervous. He knows all of the numbers and colors. He loves to play with toy cars, read books, snuggle with his stuffed doggie, and talk about Elmo on T.V. He is a very helpful big brother and likes to give sister her pacifier when she is sad.
Reece was born on December 5, 2010 at 4:42 pm. She weighed 8 lbs 12 oz and was 20 ½ inches long. She is a very good baby. She sleeps well and wants to be cuddled and held at all times. She only tolerates being put down when we swaddle her in a blanket. She is a very beautiful girl with fair skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes, and has stolen all of our hearts.
Our best wishes go out to you this New Year. We appreciate all of your love and support.
Love,
The husband, Choosy Mom, Jif and Reece
