Update

Well, it's been a while since I last posted. Things have been busy, and unfortunately, keeping up with my blog has fallen to the bottom of my "to do" list. Here's a quick recap to catch you up on the last couple of weeks:

Travel: We have been going non-stop. Billy went out of town on a fishing trip; I went to Vegas, we went to Houston to say goodbye to our dear friends, The Carls, before they move to Australia (lucky dogs!); we went to Atlanta to visit family for Easter; Billy's out of town again this weekend for another fishing trip; then we go to Fort Worth to take Will to the zoo and visit family. Whew! Then, later in May Billy and I are planning on taking our first trip alone together since Will was born (we took a babymoon to London and Paris when I was five months pregnant--that was in May 2007). We're not sure yet where we are going to go, but regardless, it will be fun.

Work: I have been in the middle of a major deadline at work. I'm working part-time for a local high-tech company. I was hired to create new messaging, branding and content for their Website, and the project is drawing to a close. We are "soft launching" next week, which means I have been working more hours than I normally do the last couple of weeks. I'm excited to see the end result, and I have been so happy to have this job, but working these extra hours the last few weeks have made me realize how much I DON'T want a full-time job. Part-time is perfect.

Will: When I started my job in September, he started going to daycare two days a week (which he loves). But, he's also been sick non-stop since then. Before he started daycare, he had one ear infection. Since daycare, he's had eight. That's more than enough to win him a trip to the ENT and have tubes put in his ears. He's having the surgery next Thursday. It's literally a ten-minute procedure, and hopefully this will prevent him from getting more ear infections and more importantly, prevent long-term hearing damage.

There's plenty more I could go into, but that's a high-level update on the Fanning household. More to come soon...
