So thanks to aunt Jo at becky's wedding I was politely informed that we are Stalschmidt which is a german name. The whole time I thought we were Irish. Im still keeping my Ireland shirt (even with the two holes in the armpits) Now thanks to Jacob's new shield referring to Steelsmith-Stalschmidt and the SS symbol Im confirmed Im a Nazi of some sort.

Ha ok serious. Things have been good with me. I just moved from Issaquah to bothell to be closer to my work. I cut 45 min down to 10 and what a surprise Im more late than ever. Funny how that is. I live in a nice 3 bd 2.5 bath house with my same roomate/friend Jason and my friend Chris. We all get along pretty well and are equally messy so it works out. Chloe our cat is going crazy with all the running space. She jumped up on the stair case ledge and almost slipped off to a good 15 ft drop. Im not anticipating her demise by stairs. But its possible.

My girlfriend and I finally got over our nasty colds and got to go visit Jacob and Jennifers little one. It was truly the first time I ever held a baby. Was very cute baby I must say. I can't wait to see him grow up. I never had younger siblings to harass so it should be fun. Uncle Matt needs a drink! Uncle matt needs a nap! Ha can't wait. Anyways everything else is good here as well. Im climbing out of financial purgatory after moving in the house. By the way anybody wanna buy an Ipod, Snowboard or stools? :-)
