Update

Things are great here but very busy. Zachary is turning four years old on May 15. He's very excited about his birthday and all of the toys he's going to get (so he thinks). ;-)) We are both excited to be heading to Tennessee next weekend to visit with our dear friends from Texas. This will probably be the only vacation that we take this year as I have some really big news to share.

I am running for office! That's right, I am seeking office as a NC State Representative in District 101. Having said that, I will be campaigning over the next six months so there won't be much time for blogging. If you want to follow my campaign, you can visit my website at: www.SteenforNCHouse.com. I filed for office in February and have been attending events, networking and campaigning some along the way. Now that the primary is over, I'm hitting the pavement, daily, going door-to-door to promote my campaign and gain support. November will be here before we know it!

We are also on FaceBook so please look us up. I'm listed under "Rebecca Harmon Steen". Just let me know that you are a blogger friend in the initial message.

Hope everyone is doing well! Have a wonderful summer!

Zachary's walking, mommy loves her new job and so on...

It's been a little while since we've posted. We have been so busy. I absolutely LOVE my new job!!! The people are great and it's nice getting a $12k raise! ;-)) So here's what's been going on. Last weekend, we went home to see our family. We had a great time! Zachary is walking everywhere. He is SO proud of himself. He continues to be such a happy baby and oh how he loves his mommy!! He has really gotten adjusted to daycare. He loves the other children and plays well with them. He is also eating lots of table food. I'm really happy about this. I was wondering when it would happen. ;-))

I have attached some pictures from the last couple of weeks. Hope everyone is doing well and staying cool!!

Quick Update

We have been busy and I have been slack about posting. Things are going well...just staying on the go. Z-man is keeping me on my toes. It's hard to believe but he turned 14 months old yesterday!! Over the last couple of days, he has taken up to 10 steps by himself. He's getting the whole balance thing down. Next I guess he'll start running across the room. Wow...I'll really be in trouble then. ;-))

He is such a precious child and he just loves his mommy! He is going through a clingy phase right now. He is teething and when that happens he latches on to me. Of course, I don't mind at all. That gives me more opportunities to kiss those little cheeks.

Zachary and I are both dealing with stuffy noses right now. It's especially bad at night. I know exactly where he picked it up from. You got it! Daycare. Oh well...what can you do. Right now, I don't have a choice but to take him there. If my side business continues to grow, I'll be home with him in a few years. Nothing would thrill me more!

I started my new job today. Things are great there. I definitely made a good move. We have the greatest office manager! He has a lot of personality and he's very professional...and also has a sense of humor. This is a welcome change from the one that I was used to on my last job. I really miss my co-workers from the last job...and some of my attorneys....but I know I'm in the right place at the right time now. ;-))

Well, I'm going to go for now. I promise to write more very soon and post some pictures. I am in the middle of a great book so I'm going to wind down and read some before I go to sleep.

Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Hugs!
