We've started a Blog

Okay, so I've seen that quite of few of my friends and family members have created blogs to chronicle their lives. At first I wasn't at all interested in becoming a "blogger" (mostly because I didn't know the first thing on how to create one) but now that Greg, Cooper and I will be moving away from family and friends in the near future, I thought it would be a great way to keep everyone up to date on the goings-on in the Roberts' house-hold. Greg and I are also terrible at writing in our journals and this seemed like an easy way to jot things down for future reading and reminiscing. 2009 has started in a whirlwind for our little family. We are the proud parents of a sweet little guy who brings such a great energy to our home. Cooper is the light of our lives and we are so blessed to have him. He is now 7 months old and changing everyday. He has a great smile, the most contagious laugh and loves to go for daily walks in his "big-boy" stroller. Our walks always seem to be longer than anticipated as everywhere we go someone stops us to comment on how chubby his cheeks are or how cute he is - which I, being the proud mama that I am, absolutely love! For the past three weeks Coop and I have been living in Vancouver. I am out here trying desperately to finish my Doctoral dissertation, with much weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth. Grandma and Grandpa Evdokimoff graciously offered to help us out by renting a cozy suite downtown and are here baby-sitting Cooper while I am in the library with my nose in the books. Poor Greg is at home in Calgary completing his final semester as a Medical Student (all alone and eating cookies and lettuce for dinner). That's right folks - we are in the home stretch of medical school! I'm so proud of Greg for all he has accomplished over the past three years at the U of C. This spring will bring big changes for our little family once graduation comes. We are excited to see where life will be taking us. Life is truly an adventure!
