Today was Ashtons *official* first birthday. I took the day off and we went to the Maryland Science Center. They have a cool little 'babies only' room that he had fun playing in. The rest of the place was swarming with obnoxious school groups - so it was nice to have a break from that (we were the only ones in there - so he had the run of the place

Happy Birthday Ashton!
(I'm sorry I'm such a crappy friend and I totally owe you guys a HUGE package by now. I'm penciling you in to my new year's resolutions right now! ;) )

I hear really good things about Austin.
Bend is probably out of the question if cold weather is a problem, my Aunt lives in Redmond (neighboring town) and they get almost as much snow as we do here. I can't picture you in Atlanta, but I can't picture you in Baltimore either.

No worries :) I've heard great things about Austin too - but for the points it gets in 'coolness' it loses in 'cost of living' and high taxes....damnitt.

Yeah, Bend would be more for family reasons than anything. I'm sure you understand - sometimes I miss my family and friends soooo much - escpecially since I've had my son.

Happy Birthday Ashton!!!! science = RAD.

And hey - Austin is "just like Portland". Everybody says it, so it must be true!

Ashton says THANK YOU!!!! Poor thing though - I took him for his one year appointment and found out that not only does he have a cold and is teething...he also has his first ear infections! :( He's been coughing and crying and waking up for the last 2 hours.
