Tyler!

So...between facebook, e-mail, and this blog, I clearly can't keep my updates up-to-date! Since my last post (way back in March) a lot has changed. We welcomed our little son Tyler Ashton Croteau to our family on 9/29/09. He was born at 2:46 PM after a few short, painful hours of labor. He was 8 lbs. 1 oz and 20-1/4 inches long. He is absolutely beautiful and perfect! He is now 2 months old and is much bigger (we have an appt. on Monday to see how much he officially weighs now)! He is a great baby and has an easy-going temper, which we appreciate. I have recently resigned from my position as Comp. Health Planner at the Maine CDC. The commute is just WAY too long for me with a little one at home now, so I know I made the right decision. I am interviewing now for a CNA position in the Portland area as I finish nursing school. I am on track to finish in May 2011...only 2 semesters later than if I had stayed in the accelerated program. I love what I do and can't wait to be a nurse. I especially love being a mother and a wife to two of my favorite guys, Tyler and Keith. As the holidays are approaching, I am thankful for all that I have and feel blessed every day of my life. Happy Thanksgiving to all and I hope to post again sooner than in 6 months!
