It has been been a few weeks..

Sorry for such a gap in our posts, but things have been busy with weekend trips, my new job, and the daily tasks around the house!

Things have been going great! I started my new job at LANCO on June 16th and have been LOVING it. It is such a great move for me. I have a set schedule, which has helped Miss Natalie into a routine, great team members and a less stressful environment. The new branch in Willow Street is looking to open on the 21st of July so I can't wait for that and be much CLOSER to home! I do miss many of the gang at the bank, however I do not miss my position or the stress level. They understand that and I hope to see them again soon!

Two weekends ago, Natalie had her first night away from home. My mom offered to babysit so I can attend the races at Williams Grove with Josh. She did WONDERFUL for my mom and it was her first overnight :) We missed her greatly but it was nice to have a night out with just the two of us and see some great friends! We hope to take Natalie sometime to the races but first, must find some ear protection! Natalie is growing up so so fast its amazing! She is getting ready to crawl and once she does, I am in trouble! She is getting closer and closer each night, it is just a matter of time.

This past weekend we headed to Potter County with my grandfather and mom. It was a nice weekend away and relaxing and my grandfather enjoyed the company of Natalie. You can just see how much he loves her and she loves him! We visited with the Furlow's in hoping for mom to see bear but they decided to not come out and play. Mom was bummed of course!

This coming weekend we are heading to the beach for the 4th of July! It will be a great time, as long as the weather is good! We are looking forward to taking Natalie to the beach and seeing what she does with the sand and water. I am sure I will have plenty of pictures to post after the weekend!

We can't forget about Maggie...Maggie is doing great with Natalie and Natalie loves her to death. Over the past two weeks we have been giving Maggie run of the house while we are at work. She has gained our trust and we enjoy knowing that she is not penned up all day. She loves laying out in the remodled room since the windows are lower and she can look out them. It is funny that in the morning, I can see her watching out the one window as Natalie and I leave. She has been a wonderful dog and I am so glad she has learned to enjoy Natalie.

Overall things have been going great and we are enjoying the summer. We hope to have a picnic sometime this summer, it is just a matter of when! We wish everyone a great 4th of July Holiday!!!

Off to a new start...

So starting on Monday, I will be starting my new adventure..a.k.a....new job at LANCO Federal Credit Union. I am super excited but super nervous too! I know this is the best move for me, however I will miss all my old co-workers greatly! Friday they bought me lunch and gave me a wonderful gift basket and cake. I know I will keep in touch with many of them, but I do not think it has sunk in yet that I am not going back to what I am use to on Monday! Wish me luck for Monday!!!

Natalie is doing wonderful. She is growing so quickly that I can't believe she is 7 months old already! She continues to learn new things and amaze me at the things she learns each day. We have her drinking out of a sippie cup and today for the first time she did a little wave for hi or bye. I don't know if she understands what she is doing but to me, I was beyone amazed at that!

Tomorrow is Father's Day and I am sure Josh is excited to be celebrating his first Father's Day! I guess I better sign all of the cards tonight before bed so we can give them to him tomorrow. For now, we got him a picture frame that you can record a voice on it so he can take it to work and I will probably tell him an I owe you for whatever else he wants since he could give us NO ideas! He goes to Richmond in a few months, maybe I will just tell him to buy himself something there as a late gift :)

Alrighty well I better go, sign the cards and soon head to bed...as always enjoy some updated pictures!

After 8 years....

I have decided to pursue a new job! This past Monday I have resigned from my role at Bank of Lancaster County and will be starting a new role at a local credit union on June 16th! It was a very hard decision but with the changes at the bank with the merger with PNC, it was not a place for me. I have been working to many hours and pressured with to much sales and corporate feeling. For those that know me, I am not the corporate type and rather the more relaxed office type or for the saying the bank use to have, make money, have fun..My new job will give me more of a set schedule, more time with Natalie at the holiday's and even weekends. It was one of my hardest decisions because of the people I work with but in the long run, I will and hope to be much happier. So feel free to come visit me at my new job at LANCO Federal Credit Union!!!

Natalie is doing well, growing each and every day! She is starting to show signs of wanting to crawl so I think it is just a matter of time!!! She has her two bottom teeth through which is fun. The teething process wasn't to bad yet, but she has many more teeth to come!
