Ethan Turns ONE!!!











Wow, last blog.....January!! WEAK, I know. Well Ethan just turned one, and we can hardly believe how fast the first year goes by. Ethan is doing great, he crawls everywhere and is close to walking. He now has 4 teeth, 3 in the last 2 weeks. He has had his share of runny noses this winter, and had one bout of pneumonia that landed us in the ER. However he has fully recovered and back to his happy, energetic self. He seems to be more "boy" everyday. Exploring everything, and liking to climb on anything he can get on. He weighs about 20lbs, although he feels like he has gained a few pounds in the last week. Hope this finds everyone well, we are happy and healthy here. The Hoovers

We're Back!!











Yeah, my computer fixed itself!! I can now download pics again. So here is a quick update. January has been flying by. Ethan is now 10 months old, and growing up way too fast. He weighs 19lbs and is 28.5 inches tall. He is a crawling machine but prefers to be on his feet. He is always pulling himself up on furniture, and loves to have you hold his hands so that he can walk across the room. He is starting to eat solids yet still has no teeth. It's pretty funny watching him gum stuff to death. He is in a "clingy" phase and is constantly pulling himself up my legs. All is good with Travis, he has been working hard and helping out a ton with Ethan. They really enjoy their "boy" time. Days that I work they hang together. It is such a comfort for me. I have been working part time in the ER and have launched my new company Nouveau Post Surgical Care. We provide personal care in a private setting for people that have had day surgery. It's our philosophy that no "surgery is minor" and even if you have had outpatient procedure your recovery is vital to the healing process. That's where we come in, we recover you in a private hotel suite, adhering to your surgeons protocols, staying on top of your pain management and pampering you throughout. All for less money than you would pay to stay at a hospital. Our website should be up in the next couple of days, check us out at http://www.nouveaucare.com/ I have been having a lot of fun with this and have been working hard, we'll see how it goes.




Hope this finds everyone doing well. The Hoovers
