Checking In

Judging from other blogs, everyone is super busy right now. It seems like fall arrives, and life speeds up a bit. I can't complain - fall is my favorite time of year, and it's fun to be busy. :)

Bryce is working hard - his current project (Twisted Metal) - is due to be finished by the end of the year. He's also doing a little bit of contract work on the side, so he spends a lot of time programming. He loves to play with the boys, and is such a good dad. He's also growing a beard. I'm warming up to it...let's just leave it at that.Cole is having so much fun at school and will turn 3 in just a couple of weeks. He loves to put together puzzles and play with anything car or train related. He also loves to invite everyone (and I mean everyone) to our house to watch "The Mater Movie." He's now completely potty trained, although we did catch him peeing in the street and waving enthusiastically to our neighbors as they drove by.Jack continues to grow so well, and we are happy with his progress. Now that we have his acid reflux medicine adjusted, he is such a happy little guy. He loves to lay on the floor and kick, and he is able to roll from his tummy to his back. He does not like his car seat one bit, which makes the drive to and from downtown every day very interesting. He is doing well at school, and has his teacher, Miss Yolanda, wrapped around his finger. She calls him "Prince Jack."As for me, after almost five years at the Bookstore, I am moving on to another position. I will be working for U of U Campus HR, and will be the University's Employee Relations Specialist. I'll be handling disciplinary actions as well as service awards and Employee Appreciation Day. I'm the only ER Specialist for the University, so I'm guessing it will keep me busy. I'm also looking forward to doing my cousin Ashley's wedding cake in October.

Well, that's just a little update from the Thomsen household. Hope all is going well for you as well!

You are one brave girl for taking on employee relations! And to be the ONLY ER specialist in the HR department, that is a big job to take on! Congrats on the new job, I'm sure you will be great at it!
