Life As We Know It: A little update from the past month

Well Ya'll, it's been a month since I've last posted. A MONTH! Where did the time go? Anyway, here's a quick update on The Schiff's from this past month!

On January 22, Jesse and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary! 2 years! I know... it really isn't that long, but if you think about all that we've gone through... it's quite an accomplishment! haha. I mean seriously, I never thought we'd get to the point where we finally have Peace in our lives. Yes, it took some time, a few fights, and getting rid of a few certain people in our lives...but I'm happy to report that now, we finally have the peace and happiness that we deserve. That our child deserves. It's a good life. haha. Anyway, We enjoyed a nice dinner at Lottawatta Creek which was quite delicious! Needless to say, we came home with 4 boxes full of food!

More news... WE MOVED! Just recently actually. However, our new house is still a mess seeing that we still have TONS of boxes to sort through. Meanwhile, I've decided that I want to go for a different decorating approach. So while unpacking boxes I've been going through everything deciding what to keep and what not to keep. It's tiring. Not to mention the fact that Gabriel Lee has way too MANY toys. Yes, I admit it. He has TOO MANY TOYS! Seriously, they are already taking up half of our new dining room and the rest are comfortably taking up half of our garage. I never thought I would say this because I want my child to have everything he could ever want, but I'm afraid that I'm going to have to start going through his toys and getting rid of a few. Poor kid has too many he doesn't know what to do with them! =)

Speaking of Gabriel Lee... that boy sure knows how to make you smile. He almost has all of his teeth in and he is full of energy... all of the time!!! Our new house has an upstairs and yes, Gabe's room is upstairs. SCARY! I hate it... I don't like him being that far away from us at night. He didn't like it at first either. So, we let him sleep in our room for the first few nights. However, the past 2 nights he has slept in his room like a big boy. He's growing up too fast. He LOVES the stairs. He thinks he is BIG stuff when he climbs them all on his own... well, almost on his own- Mommy or Daddy always follow him. There have been a few times where he's snuck away and made it up about 4 or 5 stairs without us- at which point we yell at him and he just laughs. Yes, laughs. The boy thinks it's funny when he gets in trouble. Man, are we going to have our hands full. =) Needless to say, a gate is now permanently on the steps from here on out!

Well friends, that's about it for now. We have some grocery shopping to do today as well as unpacking more boxes! Have a good one! :))
