Videos of Nathan and "The Encounter"

Just wanted to share with everyone some of the fun things Nathan is up to.


Nathan got a serious case of the giggles...

As you can see, Nathan is a busy guy. He is such a joy! Andrew and I just can't get enough of him.

Now, a tragic story I would like to share with you. Over a week ago I walked into my bedroom and came face to face with one of my greatest foes. This enemy has crossed my path countless times and has taken advantage of my squeamish disposition. Sometimes I am beaten by the enemy and he escapes, leaving me in fear of our meeting again- especially in the night. Sometimes I conquer the enemy, but often shaken by the encounter, Andrew, my knight in shining armor, must dispose of the remains. Well, as I was saying... recently my foe and I met again. I was determined not to lose this fight. I was willing to do whatever it would take to walk away victorious! Who is my foe? Watch the video to find out and to see the remains of our battle.

Home Sweet Home

Hello all! Just wanted to update everyone on the comings and goings of the Moore family. Nathan is still a growing, healthy and happy little boy. Mom and Dad couldn't be prouder! He's laughing at all of his father's antics while I can only get smiles from the kid. Who can blame him, right? His dad is just hilarious plus that beard just tickles. When he laughs, we can't help but laugh ourselves. Before we know it, our stomachs are sore from laughing at Nathan who is laughing at us, who are laughing at Nathan, who is laughing at us... you get the picture.

Andrew is studying hard for his CCIE certification which entails a written examination and a lab. It's a toughy, but I'm sure he'll do well. It's in his nature to succeed. I mean, look at him- he's happily married to an incredible woman (wink), he has a great job, he somehow managed to fix up this insanely scary house, and he has a son who adores his daddy! Life is great!

I'm not doing too shabby either. After discussing with Andrew our options, we decided it would be best for me to stay home with Nathan. So, I'm home! (Hence the title of this post- "Home Sweet Home") I feel so blessed to get to stay home and raise my son. It was killing me the idea of missing him grow up, which I've learned happens so fast.

So, just an update on our house, which is on the market now. You can check out the listing on allentate.com and search for the house using the street name: Rothgeb. The address is 2705 Rothgeb Drive in Raleigh. We had an open house a few weeks ago and had a couple nibbles, but no bites. We've also had several showings, but again, no bites. Looks like we're just going to have to enjoy living in this house... dang.
