Bing and I just returned from our escape at Bella Beach. Grammie Marcia and Papa Barn thoroughly enjoyed their three days alone with Maddox. Marcia was very good about sending us little video clips of our sweet baboo. He is getting more and more hilarious, goofy and energetic with each passing day.

While we were gone: Maddox pummeled Rudy (family dog), climbed into a clothes basket to read his book, ate in mass quantities and pooped just as much, refused to be gotten out of bed by throwing himself violently all over the crib post-nap. To our delight, he squealed and flashed us a face consuming smile when we crashed in on bath time, and then, jumped up offering kisses left and right. I know there was loads of fun without us around but, it is so fantastic to be received with such excitement and fervor.

Also, while we were gone: Bing and I ate amazing seafood (and lots of it), scoured for sea treasures on multiple beaches for hours on end, hit up the local outlet mall, ate more delicious seafood (little, raw oysters are yummy), took a candlelit bubble bath, massaged each others' feet and enjoyed several days of childless, marital bliss!



We tried to get cute pictures of the two of us but we both agree they turned out disgusting so, all you get is the corny, yet cute, beach video...

Something about the Randich house does funny things to Maddox's bowels. He has never pooped in our bathtub, nor has he gotten diarrhea all over our carpet. I think they just bring out his crappy side :)

For those who missed it...

I could do without the closet segment but, other than that, they did an awesome job. This is the piece they did on our moving day.

We have been in the house for a week now. WOW! Most everything is situated comfortably; there are a lot of things that we need, like furniture. Two living rooms means multiple couches and end tables and lamps, etc. For now, we have a pretty sweet dancefloor. Maddox is into everything and is really loving all of the room to run. I will have to post more on all of the mischief he is up to.

Sunday we head out for the coast and boy are we excited! We have two weeks of fun, family and friends. We get back on January 2nd and on the 4th I start my new job at Eide Bailly as a Medical Billing Specialist.

Our blessings come in pairs

So... yesterday we closed on the house and spent our first night sleeping out there. Awesome! Today, Bing got a phone call from St. Vincent Hospital and they have 100% forgiven our debt with them. For those of you that don't know, that is a $23,000 burden lifted from our shoulders. Thank you, thank you God!
