The World Welcomes Another CPA!

Congratulations to Drew who found out this last weekend that he passed all four parts of the CPA exam on his first try! He won't be certified until he works as an accountant for a year and passes an ethics exam but the hard part is over. My parents got the last results mailed to their house (we were using it as a permanent address) so we tricked Drew into going to a fancy steak place and had the waiters put the test results in his menu. It was a very fun evening!

Spencer is One - well actually 13 months now!

Here is the latest Ableman good news - Spencer is walking! It looks a little more like a drunk march than a walk but we think it is cute. He started just a couple weeks ago and has not stopped! Drew started his job and we got our first real paycheck. That's exciting! Here are some recent pictures to keep you updated:

Spencer really enjoyed his birthday cake. At first he was a little afraid of it but as you can see, that didn't last!

Now that he is walking, he loves to do it and gets a little angry if he is picked up!

Spencer has such a goofy little personality. He is his own person for sure!




Although, he does come by it naturally. Here is Drew having some fun getting stuck in one of Spence's new toys. Drew is going to get me for posting this!

Spence loves the Zoo. Maybe it is because he finds kindred spirits there!

We've moved!

Another long delay but this time I have an excuse: moving! We are finally all set up in Portland. We are enjoying our new apartment and especially its location. We are close to everything! Spencer is crawling like a mad man and pulling himself up onto everything. He's getting even cuter, take a look:

Congrats on the Graduation Drew!

He sure loves his baths

This is Spencer's first trip to the Zoo!

Aren't my boys cute!

And this is Spencer's first swim. He really enjoyed it!

Last but not least, these two give a good glimps of his little personality! And his teeth!

Graduation is almost here!

Here are some updated pictures of Spencer. He is a budding pianist.

We are so lucky to have such a happy baby. But that doesn't mean we don't have our moments...

Drew didn't like the hair in that above picture but I thought it was funny!

Spencer is helping mommy pack! This is about all I've done!

I love the bum-in-the-air sleeping position. This can't be comfortable :)

Seven Months!

Well the last seven months have flown by. Spencer is closer to his first birthday than he is to his birth! New to the last couple of days is the beginnings of a little tooth. You can't really see it yet, it's just a little white point, but you can feel it. Here are some cute pictures:

The laundry basket is a fun toy!

And Drew wanted me to add this one, even though it is a little late!

One more picture!

I think this one is funny. My nose is smashed and Drew is munching Spencer's eye but Spencer is just smiling away!

Sorry it's been so long!

I really struggle to keep this thing updated, sorry about that! Spencer is four months old and growing like crazy. He rolled over for the first time yesterday but I wasn't there to see it. He chose to roll over for the first time during the only two hours I was gone yesterday. Drew witnessed it though. He hasn't done it again yet...

We got Spencer's pictures taken and they are so cute! Drew didn't want me to put them on here because we are giving them to our family as Christmas presents but I couldn't help myself. Here are a few more:

Merry Christmas!

And here is one of all of us:

Finally this one, Drew loves it!
