Sorry it's been so long since I've updated the blog. It's been a crazy 2 months. After 7 days we finally arrived in Rockland on July 20th. Sadly on July 22 my step-dad Dave passed away unexpectedly and the next day Ivan and I were on a plane heading home. Jason had to stay because he had to check into his new boat. We spent 9 days at home and then flew back to Maine. Jason been really busy at his boat and going to different schools so I've been busy trying to get us situated in our new house. The house is really nice and alot bigger then our duplex in Astoria. Ivan turned 2 on September 8th and it turning into quite a little man. My mom and DJ are flying out on the 25th to spend a week with us and we are VERY excited. I really miss my family and friends. We have taken lots of pictures while we have been here so I will try and post some.

Ivan keeping himself busy




Ivan has been such a trooper in the car. Out of no where Ivan started dancing in the car and thankfully Jason got it on video. Make sure you turn up the volume.

Ivan's first time in a swimming pool

He was so excited!

He would only stay in as long as I was holding him
About to go into full meltdown
He started chewing on the life jacket. It seemed to calm him down.
Here is a video of us in the pool. Make sure you turn up the volume.

Visiting the bears!
