Introductions

Hello,
My name is Vanessa Angel, this is my husband Andy, and our son Van on a recent rainy camping trip.

We're adding one more to the family early next year, this blog will allow me to record our lives as they all move swiftly along.

Van Angel
Van is 2.5 years old. Things he loves most: riding his bike and going to Bouncing Bears. I was really nervous when I found out I was having a boy the first time around, because I felt like I didn't know anything about boys or how to raise them. I have been pleasantly surprised. Van is certainly full of energy, but he is also sweet, kind, and silly. I have more fun playing with him than I imagined I would.

Vanessa Angel
I currently have three full time jobs, a mom, wife, and petroleum engineer. I love all three and wish there was more time in the day to spend on all of them. As it is, I do my best to get by on all three fronts, but I would compare it to a firefighter battling multiple blazes. So far everyone is still alive.

Andy Angel
Andy is a geologist and also an artist. He builds beautiful things for our house and is always working with his hands. I think it would be important to mention that Andy is a devout Steelers fan, a bug that is slowly but surely infiltrating the rest of us.

New Baby Angel
We don't know much about new baby Angel yet, only to expect him or her on March 1st. I'm sure there will be more updates on this front in the future.

Hope you enjoy this blog
