This last month we have been very busy with Jared's work. At the end of August we opened our own carpet cleaning company called Atlas Clean. The model for the business is environmentally friendly so we use a smaller vehicle, smaller equipment (that is still as effective), and all non-toxic cleaners. I answer phones, do the books and do the legal work for the business. Jared does the marketing and the cleaning. So far this arrangement is working fine. Business has been slow and so Jared got his general contractor's license and has been taking landscaping and maintenance jobs. Much to my surprise this business has been helping Jared and I grow closer and work together. I am grateful for that. Also Jared is FINALLY HAPPY about his work!!! That is making a huge difference in our life's!!!
Spencer has had a pretty independent month. He is very busy and plays happily by himself for an hour or more at a time. I always keep an eye on him when he is playing on his own. It has made it a lot easier to get things done. He is also babbling more which is so adorable! He figured out what I am doing when I take his picture so lately whenever he sees the camera he gets really excited and either jumps up and down or crawls to me to try to get the camera. It is very cute but has made it a lot harder to take his picture. This month we bought Spencer his first shoes for walking. His aunties and Grammy also sent him his first Halloween bib and matching oncie they say "I love my Mummy and my Mummy loves me." Here are some pictures from this month.
