Where did the time go?

Dear friends and family,

I'm long over due for a blog posting!! Where did the time go? I feel like I blinked and all of a sudden the summer is gone, I'm back at work full time, Alex is traveling all over the world trying to maintain world peace, and Luke is crawling his way into mischief every chance he gets. I feel like I'm truly experiencing that frantic part of life called parenthood.

To recap - the summer was great! We took one final long trip back to the states to see friends and family in August, and soaked up the warm sticky humid DC summer days. We loved every minute of it, especially Alex who reveled in his home culture. We've posted all of our pictures here. (for those interested in getting real prints (Ron, I'm especially thinking of you), you can order the pictures that you like by clicking on "prints" and following the directions. They will be mailed to you wherever you live in the world!)

We returned to Brussels in late august and I promptly started my new job at the Brussels Department of the Environment. The work environment is good, and I enjoy hanging out with my interesting and fun colleagues. But the work is very slow, a very different pace than what I'm used to. A little too slow to my liking actually.

That's about all I have time for tonight. I have a feeling that these blog postings will be a bit more sporadic than in the past, but I will do my best to keep up.

xoxo, Anouk
