Duck go quack quack







Hannah said her first sentence this past Sunday. Kelly and I took the girls to the park on Sunday to feed the geese. It was Hannah's first goose feeding experience and she did pretty good. She threw a couple pieces of bread at the geese, then decided she'd rather eat it herself! So she watched Jay and I feed them. Kelly kept saying "duck go quack quack" and Hannah eventually repeated it back to her. I totally missed it though! Hannah had a blast with Jay. Whenever I see her interact with Jay, I know she must miss Vivian and Lem. In the picture of Hannah and Jayden holding hands, it was Hannah who reached for Jay's hand. Like I said, it was a much needed girl weekend for both us. This weekend, David and I are looking forward to a relaxing weekend.

A birthday Celebration

This weekend I drove up to Chicago for some much needed girl time. David stayed here, and got much accomplished without Hannah and I underneath him. Kelly had a little birthday celebration for Jayden, her little girl, and me, the second night I was there. Hannah planted her hand in both cakes and went nuts over the freaking whipped cream, as you'll notice from one of the photo's below. She kept putting her hand in the whipped cream and shoving handfuls of it into her mouth. And then she would laugh hysterically. It was great.

I'm back...........for now






Well let's see, on October 1st, David and I moved into a rental house. It's only 3 streets down from Amy and Tom, David's mom and her husband. It's exactly 1/4 mile away, which makes it incredibly convenient for all of us. Hannah and I just take a little stroll when we need to go over there. It all happened really fast, which is why most people didn't know about it. I found the listing, looked at the house, and signed the lease 4 days later. David didn't see it until a week later! Things have been very hectic since then, between school, moving, and Hannah. The two pictures of Hannah were taken last month. The last picture is one David sent the first or second week of driving. If you look closely at the back stack, you can see that it's shifted to the left of all the other stacks. This is one of the many exciting things David's had happen since he started driving. So to answer everyone's questions, yes, David is enjoying truck driving very much. So far he's been to Oklahoma, Nebraska, Michigan, Iowa, Maine, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Tennessee, and I think I'm missing one or two.
