We are so thankful for a house with a deck to put our grill and outdoor furniture on. But with this territory comes some minor hazards. Erich is still learning how to use stairs and decided to try it on his own. Of course Jonathon and I were standing right there, but these things, as we all know, happen faster than we can react. After some hugging and peroxide I think he will survive. No evidence of a subdural or epidural hematoma noted.

Springtime!!!!
Spring is finally here!!! Although we know one last snowfall may be just around the corner, we are very thankful for our warm(er) weather and the budding flowers and trees. I'm premedicating with allergy meds, so hopefully I will be able to enjoy Spring this year!

Is there a Doctor in the house?
YES!!!!
Jonathon successfully defended his dissertation on Thursday, March 27, and can now add the letters PhD after his last name. We are both so relieved this hurdle has been jumped. He still has more work to do in order to publish some of his writing, but all in all, he feels a real burden has been lifted.
Now, do you all know of any job openings for an ecologist?

A Christmas Story?
No, this is Easter in Michigan. What a surprise to have an Easter Egg hunt with 4-6 inches of snow on the ground. At least it was sunny. Erich had a great time "finding" the eggs in the snow. He caught on really quickly. He even learned how to steal eggs out of someone else's basket. My thieving little bambino.

Erich's first haircut
Our little man finally got his first haircut. He cried really hard while Jonathon was getting his haircut, but was stone-still while he got his own haircut. He did such a great job and looks great. There are more photos of the event on our flickr site.

Lunar Eclipse
This is a little late only because I just downloaded my pictures.
This was taken on Feb. 20 at 10pm during the most recent lunar eclipse. I only wish I had a better zoom lens to really capture it, but I think my camera did a spectacular job.

We're back online
We finally have a functioning computer at our new place. Sorry it has been forever since you all heard from us, but I assure you everything is just fine. Jonathon is currently stuck in NJ due to their "major" winter weather (yeah, okay...). His three-day work trip turned into a four-day trip, so it's not all that bad. He was able to get a lot done and feels good about his progress.
Erich is doing well, learning all sorts of new words and phrases. Just today, in the public bathroom with my mother-in-law, Erich proceeded to say "poopy?" about 100 times. He also discovered how to check under the stall walls and meet his neighbors also making "poopy."
And I am currently putting my feelers out and thinking about switching to another department. Just this morning I had an interview with Infusion Services (doing IV therapy for all sorts of people). The interview went really well and I should know if I'm in next week. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of seniority so I'm not getting my hopes too high.
