What a week this has been! Gabriel is just as beautiful as ever and becoming more alert. Not only does this little boy roll over when he wants to but started saying "hi" as well (of course we must repeat it about 10 times before he mimics us).
Another great event this week was the birth of my God-son, Blaise William Perryman. I have not met him yet because he has been in the NICU since he was born. He has not been able to keep any food down and has been surviving on IVs. I ask you to please keep him in your prayers. That family has had their share of difficulties and this is one that really deserves our prayers!!!!
I received an award this week at work which I completely did not expect!!! I helped automate this financial process at work in excel. A co-worker of mine has to input many cells of numbers manually from another sheet (copy and pasting). These financial sheets get distributed to our client monthly. I cut down the amount of formulas she has to deal with from 138 to 1. All she has to do is manually change the date on one page and everything automatically populates across the other 15 or so sheets. I was simply doing my job but was rewarded for it. I love this company--not because I got an award, but because they make you feel good about the work you do. They recognize the work you do.
To top off the week, Erin and I had a date night tonight. We went to Abe's, this Cajun restaurant in Houston, which turned out to be really tasty, and then went to play Putt Putt golf. How fun!!! I won't tell you who won :) We then finished off the night with the Matt and Lucy Coles (they babysat for us) and their friends. We played a great game of Taboo.
I often wonder what God has planned for me in the future, but then remember that I should really enjoy the present. I love having a 2 month old, living with my wife in a humble apartment, and working for a program that might get cancelled. Anyway you slice it, I am blessed and in a fascinating time of my life!!!!!
You won you putt putt beast you!!!! :O)
