We're still here
Well, Thanksgiving is over, in ways I'm GLAD! :) The holidays are always hectic and although I don't consider myself a scrooge, sometimes I just like to be home relaxing with nowhere to go. This year, I got just that. Bill had to work so Liam and I stayed behind and spent time with my family here. While that part was nice, it was awful not having Bill here. That was a FIRST since we've been together.
Christmas is upon us, sooner that I realize I think. My mom has been talking about going away because it will be very painful not having dad around this year. Bill will be working again so not sure what Liam and I will be doing quite yet.
The Florida Gators Lost thier SEC Champion title to Alabama this past weekend. While I would have LOVED to see them win it again, I was more upset that Tim Tebow was so disappointed in himself. That was tough to witness! Poor guy.
Bill has some "things" going on at work. As of Jan. 2010, he will be upgraded to Capt. flying the CRJ 700. It is the 70 passenger jet opposed to the 50 passenger one he is currently flying, while it will more than likely be very temporary, it will be a good thing in the mean time. More studying for him to prepare for the change right now. Poor guy, does he ever get a break???? Liam is growing so fast. He hasn't had an interest in his pacifier for months now. For about four months to be exact. Thank goodness for that, just one less thing I have to worry about. He loves flying and has taken a HUGE interest in airplanes, Pointing up at the sky everytime he sees or hears one fly by. He has been around them a LOT so maybe, just maybe we have a baby pilot in the making. God help us. :)
Looking forward to 2010. 2009 was a ROUGH one for sure. Bill has some possible BIG changes with his job coming up in May. Keep us in your thoughts, that things work out for the best. Not real sure how things could get any worse in the airline industry anyway. :)
That's it for now. Til next time, here are some pics of "us".
Everytime Bill comes home from a trip, I always TRY to make him a "goodie". Not always possible with Liam, but here is my recent one I made for him this past weekend. A chocolate-peanut butter pie. :)
Hands down, one of my FAVORITE times with Liam. Cuddling, a sleepy baby is the best!
At the in-law's in Atlanta.

I miss you Daddy!!!
This year, things aren't going to be the same for Thanksgiving. It was Dad's favorite holiday and it has been really hard on us all lately. We miss him very much and it seems like crying is the only way to get thru the tough times. I have had my share of crying this week and last for sure. Nothing will make us miss dad any less but having family around will make things a little easier. Thank you Rayana, and Ria for bringing your families here to be with us and Im sure we will all do our share of crying on thursday. Love you all! and We all love you Daddy!!!!

I will never tire of looking at these pics!
a HUGE thanks to my sister who got these pics the day Liam was born. I was going thru her phone the other night and found them and ofcourse I had to steal them. I had never seem some of them and it melted my heart!!! Bill looks so fascinated doesnt he? ALmost "studying" the new little guy!
and THIS right here is the feeling you will never be able to describe to anyone, no matter how hard you try, the words dont exist, only that feeling in your heart!!

We're still here!
We have been so busy and I feel so bad that I have neglected the blog so much. Bill's schedule is really tough these days so Liam and I spend a lot of time traveling to Atlanta to allow us more time with him. THanksgiving is this week and to be honest, im not even excited like I normally am. Daddy isnt with us this year and I've cried more than I care to mention. So has my mom, my sister and Im sure my brother too! ALso, this is the FIRST year Bill wont be home for thanksgiving. Im so sad about it but, tis the life of a pilot wife right? Uhhh!!!! :( If Bill dosnt get called for a trip, Liam and I will take an afternoon flight to Atltanta to eat Turkey with him Thursday night. Dont want him to miss out spending the holiday with his little guy! (and me too).
Other than that, things are good. Bill was home this weekend for the first time in months. We went to a filipino dinner party at my mom's house Saturday night. Good fun, met some really nice people!
Below are some recent pics of our reason for living! He's is growing up so fast. I often want to push the "pause" button on life so he stays little just a while longer. I love this little guy soooo much!
he cried when we had to go....... :(
Silly, silly boy!!!!

For those of you that know Bill, know that he has been LONG overdue for a new vehicle. He has been looking for quite sometime for the right deal to come along and he finally found it. He has been driving that pathfinder for way too long! A funny story about the pathfinder: When he was in the car business (before he started flying) he sold it to a good friend, Nick in 1992. Nick drove it for quite sometime and when Bill decided to get out of the car business and to go to flight school he was in need of a vehicle (since he always drove something off the lot as the finance manager). Well, Nick was getting rid of the Pathfinder (that Bill originally sold to him) and Bill bought it back from him in 1999. Funny huh? So, here it is,,, 10 years later and Bill has gotten a new truck! We still have the Pathfinder for now. It makes me sad to get rid of it... it picked me up on our very first date. Saw us get engaged and married... our first baby and so on. We may just wind up donating it to good will or something if he cant sell it......As for now, Bill is really enjoying his new ride! :) Maybe I should say, I am really enjoying MY new ride,, I have been driving it more than BIll!

A nice treat
We knew that October was going to be a really slow month for Bill at work and now that his hectic summer is over,,, Liam and I are getting some opportunities to go to work with Bill. Since he is on reserve and crashes at his Mom and Bob's it's a perfect chance to kill two birds with one stone. For Liam to see his grandparents and for Me, Bill and Liam to spend a little more time together. This weekend was perfect. We were there the whole weekend and Bill never got called to Fly! What a treat. Here a few pics from my iphone.
Bob made a cranberry apple upside down french toast for breakfast.... yummy!!!
A family pic with Liam's first pumpkin,,, (beleive it or not,, that pumpkin is actually a candle)
Bill and I got a date night on Saturday night. We went to the new Buffalo Wild Wings in Buckhead and it was great cause Liam slept in my lap the whole time!!! :)
Liam finds pleasure in the simplest of things.... an empty milk carton!
Bathtime fun in Grandma Mary's sink!
BAthtime
THis little guy was sooo tired from staying up late from watching the game that I didnt have the heart to change his clothes,, so he went to bed in his gator gear! :)
