It is amazing how fast time flies, but it is even more amazing how quickly a baby become an infant. She is now 15 weeks old. She has been rolling over on her own for the past month and is now trying to talk. She ooh’s and ahhh’s with the best of them. The best part is she seems like she is having a conversation with me. I swear she is saying I Love You, but that may just be my imagination.
In addition to Ayla growing our new Residential Construction company is off and running. Tandem Homes is alive and well in Corpus Christi. This has been a long time dream of mine and I am excited to be able to pursue it. I will be talking more about Tandem in the future. As a builder my goal is to help people Live Eco Smart. We are working to create a balance between Ecologically Friendly and Economically Friendly. We will be building homes that incorporate Earth friendly elements that still make homes affordable. Many of the things one can do to be Earth friendly don’t even cost, they just involve doing, such as recycling. I am by no means an “Eco Freak”, but I do believe that if we all take steps we can make a difference.
Back to Ayla, she is a definite blessing to our family. Thank you for reading. Here are the pictures you really came to see.

Ayla loves the remote control.

What a beautiful little baby girl. Your mom has shared this with me and I hope you don’t mind. What a blessing.
Will be praying about your new company venture. That God will give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed -Psalm 20:4.
Thanks for sharing your life with others.
