Starting our Blog

So this is my first time blogging. Jason & I (Amanda) had our first child this year. Jordan Michelle was born monday, January 14 at 6:15pm. She decided to come to us 10 days early. That was great since it meant that I didn't have to go to work on Monday. Since she was born I have been staying home with her. This has been quite an adventure. I love being able to be with her as she learns new things. She is now 8 1/2 months old. She started crawling just before she turned 8 months. She loves playing with her daddy. He comes to tickle her & she crawls away as fast as she can laughing. This summer she go to do a lot of fun stuff including swimming, which she loves. Her Grandpa has come to visit from Oklahoma several times. Her other Grandparents live very close and she gets to play with them at least once a week. Jason has had to continue traveling for work every couple of weeks, so when daddy is gone Grandma Jahn will sometimes come stay with us. Jordan's other favorite activity is bathtime. She doesn't ever want to get out. She also loves the outdoors, even if it is only to get the mail.

Now that I have gone on & on about Jordan here is a little about the rest of us. Jason & I got married June 12, 2004. We purchased our first house in Aurora that August. Jason has been working for Boeing for the last 4 years. I was working for a credit union until Jordan was born. Jason is getting ready to finish his second masters program. Once he is finished I plan on going to school to get my nursing degree. We have been going to Colorado Community Church since before we even met, in fact we met through one of the singles groups there. We were one of several couples that started a young marrieds group that continues to meet every thursday. We have met some of our best friends through this group.

I can't think of anything else to say at this time but I hope to keep up with this blog.
