I am finally updating our blog again, sorry it's been so long :) I thought things would slow down after summer was over, but things have remained just as busy into this fall season. I woke up this morning and looked outside at our trees and couldn't believe how much the color has already changed. What a beautiful day from God. I am certainly enjoying the sun today as well since the last few days have been full of rain. I have been enjoying a "normal" schedule the past 2 weeks since I had ACLS classes to take along with a telemetry class. I will never take forgranted being able to sleep at night (rather than try to sleep during the day) when I get off working night shift. I am so much more energetic and just feel so much better. The new thing for me at work is that I am starting to orient (learn) in the Emergency Room as well as in Labor & Delivery. I am trying to embrace these opportunities and remain positive. It's hard because I just feel like I developed a comfort zone working on the medical/surg floor as well as post-partum, and here they think I need to keep on learning all the areas. I guess it's a positive aspect about working in a smaller hospital, I will never be bored as I need to stay current in all areas. 
Brady & I recently joined a couple's group at our church called Firm Foundation. This is a Bible study group that meets every month on Sunday night and we also have a fun activity every month. I am so excited for this opportunity to learn and grow with other married couples. This year we are studying the book "Guard Your Heart" by Dr. Gary & Barbara Roseberg. Another update with Faith CRC was that the Christian Ed Auction was a huge success! There was over $40,000 raised for the Christian Education Fund. Praise God! It's so neat to see how many families of all ages are dedicated to the support of Christian Education. There were tons of creative ideas on the auction this year. Brady donated a vehicle detail that was auctioned for $450 :) I enjoyed helping set up for the auction and Brady helped in holding up the items as they were bid on and passing them out once they were sold. We feel blessed to be part of Faith CRC. God is doing wonderful things there.Brady has been staying busy with his class every Monday night at USF. Exciting news - he applied to take the first part of his CPA (Certified Public Accountant) exam. This is a 4 part exam that is intense. We ask for all your prayers and he continues to study for this exam, I know he can do it and I'm so proud of him for continuing his schooling towards a Master's Degree :)
Maya has been Maya, still so energetic. She turns 1 tomorrow :) Lucky for her she will be getting groomed on her birthday, what girl doesn't like a day at the spa on their birthday...lol. We have come a long way with her in the past year, she is now fully potty trained and she recently learned to sit on command. We are still working on lay, roll over, etc. Everyone tells me that the chewing "stage" will end, but I'm not so sure with her, I think the chewing might be more of a personality trait than a "stage". Regardless, we love her.
I hope everyone has been having an enjoyable and beautiful fall so far.
