Well its been quite a while since I last updated. It has been rather busy around the Reiners house. Ty is growing like a little weed. He is starting to be interested in rolling over but can't quite master the idea of one more push of his foot and he'd be there. He rolls from his front to his side really good. Not too much longer and we'll have a roller around here. I can't wait until he has reached his next stage in his life.
Work is going really good. Ashley left on Sept 8 to have her baby, a little boy. I am taking her place at work until she returns in 8 weeks. Work is busy but its a job and it gets food on the table and shelter over our bodies so I shouldn't complain too much.
Dustin starts his new job next Monday, the 29th. He is really excited. It will be good to get away for a while. Away from home, me and Ty... just get away.

Our lives are finally coming together. Coming together quitely nice if I can say so myself. Both of us are employed, we are in our own house, Ty is growing and healthy, I definitely count my blessings everyday for everything God has blessed us with. We never quite realize how great we have it until one day we don't (have it).

Dustin and I's relationship has never been better. Our love is stronger now, and his smile will always make my day better no matter how bad it has been. His arms will always make me feel safer and secure. His kisses always make me feel irresistible. I can't ever imagine having a greater man to marry than Dustin and although I don't tell him as much as I should, when we go to bed at night, I know he knows that I love him and everything will always be okay. You know why? Because "God won't ever give you anything He knows you can't handle".

Well have a good night. I'll leave you with some new pictures and a video of Ty I took last night. Good Night

settling in...

We have officially moved into our new house. With only a few boxes left to unpack it is starting to feel like home. Ty's room is full of animals and he coos at them all the time. Ty has gotten so big over the last couple of weeks. He talks a lot more now and babbles and makes bubbles. He notices more things and he even laughed the other day. I was so excited to tell everyone that he did that. We are working on rolling over now and he will get 1/2 way there and get fussy. Dustin says he has patience like his mother... HA HA HA thats not funny, although he has a good dose of both of us and our attitudes. He has finally gotten over the bilateral ear infections he had and I can safely say with the exception of a couple fussy days, he acts like he feels much better.

Dustin got his job at Bertie Corrections and today he went to do his psychological evaluation in Greenville and after that report comes back from Raleigh he will be all set to start his new job. I am so excited for him and getting this job. He has been so ready to start work again since we've been home. He has been staying home with Ty while I've gone back to work and actually I think it has been really good for him and Ty as well. Dustin has gotten the chance to be with Ty and play with him throughout the day unlike most fathers to newborns. usually it is the dad who goes back to work and misses out on the joy of being home all day with the baby and instead I am at work and Dustin has been at home. It gave them time to bond.

I am so happy that our lives have finally started to come together again. And this time it's for the long run... Right now, my life couldn't get much better than this.
