This blog documents the thoughts, activities and emotion of our path to parenthood. On September 4, 2008 our lives changed as we found out that this was a possiblity. We hope that this blog insipres us to be introspective through the process and allows us to communicate the progress to our loved ones. It is now November 2009 and looking back it has been an amazing journey. We can't wait to see what the future holds for us and are so happy that we have people that follow us.

Long Time No Blog
It has been a few days since our last post; it feels like a lot longer than it actually has been. This past week was extremely busy for me at work, including a long drive to the Cincinnati area and back that cut into the free time. As you can see in the picture, Sebastian is continuing to develop very quickly, he is now sitting up for longer periods of time on his own, and has just about figured out how to go from being on his belly to sitting up. It is only a matter of a few days before he gets the hang of it.
He has two new "tricks" that he is doing recently. Todd taught him how to turn the ceiling fan light on and off in his room by pulling on the chain. It has gotten to the point that if you enter or leave the room and don't turn the lights on/off he gets a little upset. I guess he will be a conservationist if nothing else. He has also learned how to clap when we clap along with him. He gets so excited and loves to do it. I love that he can see me do things and mimic them now.
He has a pediatrician appointment on Friday for vaccines and another general check up. We'll have to go back 2 more times in the coming weeks for his flu and H1N1 follow ups. That's a lot of shots for the little guy in a 2 month period! Too bad we couldn't have timed them a little better, but better this way than not at all.
We're excited about our first holiday season as a family. This year Thanksgiving will be spent here in Ohio, and Christmas in NJ with my family. My middle brother and his girlfriend will be home as well, and we are looking forward to them finally meeting Sebastian.
One last thing- we have been playing with a new nickname for Sebastian; we call him Sea Bass. Cute, right? We'll see if it sticks...
