Father's Day, Preggo Vid

Happy Father's Day!

We were in Walsenburg with my family for George's first Father's Day...

George, my Dad, Uncle Mike, & Cousin Mike (and yes my dad is also named Mike) all sit together at our breakfast for "Our Four Fathers."

I made coordinating tops for Regin & George.

Regin's said "Lil Player" and had a pawn chess piece, and George's said "Big Daddy" and had a king chess piece. They were so cute :)

A Little Belly Dance

So when I was about 7 months pregnant, I made sure to get some video footage of me dancing salsa. I wanted proof that I did it. My last dance was only about a week and a half before Regin was born, too bad I don't have video of that! Anyway, I actually have two videos. I've been trying to figure out quality issues with YouTube and therefore haven't posted the videos on here. But then this morning, I realized that one of my tests on YouTube has been public & viewed for like 5 days! So I figure I will just leave that one as is and continue to let the world view it. Including you guys...

I will have the other video up real soon. Maybe tomorrow.

Back to the full blog...

How we're doing right now.

April 6th, 2009
Oh man, moving back home has been quite a transition! For Regin especially. It has taken him three months to return to being fully, or almost fully, potty trained. But we're home and happy to be with friends and in an environment where things are easier.

But of course, not everything is easier. George's first day back to work he learned that the company was exiting the business and he and all the other people that work on that product (including all those people he trained in Penang) were told to look for other jobs.

His last day was March 31st. No time for that cozy little 'sabbatical' though; after he finished his last day of work, his family called and told us they are coming (from Florida) for a visit on the 10th! This would be no big deal (other than being terribly exciting) if we were fully moved back in, but of course, until now, we've had VERY little motivation to fully unpack! So now we're preparing the house at warp speed!

You know, I do miss Penang. Hard to say what I miss exactly, because I know it's more than our friends there, but I feel a certain pang. And all the time we were there, other than missing family, friends, easy living, and snow, I never once actually missed 'Colorado.'

When we got back to Colorado, I expected to have a new and complete love for the place. I do appreciate some things a lot more, especially visual things. I see beauty where I didn't before. But it hasn't been the feeling of home that I expected, and I still have some of the same issues with the place. But what I do love IMMENSELY and will always love IMMENSELY is the people we have here. And it's been absolutely amazing to see how Regin has picked right back up where he left off with his loved ones here. There's no doubt in my mind that he somehow remembers them.
