Roll Over




Caeden just rolled over! He went from back to tummy, and then started crying. I think he startled himself by actually getting over.

New Job!

!!! Jeremy got a new job!!! Jeremy got a new job!!!! Jeremy got a new job!!!


We have known since last Friday, and it has been really hard not to spread the word! 
He will be a supervisor in the Finance area in the Illinois Regional Office of State Farm! This office is located across the street from the Corporate South office where he is working now, so we won't be moving--(although we thought for minute there we might be.)  This will be a different area for him after spending 7 years in health insurance, but he is excited about the opportunity.  I am so proud of him!!!!  And, we are so thankful to the Lord for His continuous blessings!

Skating and Rolling


Annah got to go "skating" at school today! She was so excited when I picked her up. She said the kids got to take off their shoes and socks, roll up their pant legs, and "skate" on the gym floor, which had trash bags covered with shaving cream on it! Jeremy and I both had the same reaction: we thought it would be really fun, and we wanted to try it! ;)

Caeden is getting close to rolling over from his back to his tummy. He gets his arm stuck in the way though, and can't get all the way over. It's funny; I'm not in any hurry for him to reach milestones. The longer he wants to stay little, that's fine with me.

Annah's Succotash Recipe


Annah's Recipe for Succotash
(which she likes to make all by herself!)

“I put the corn and peas in.
And then I put it in the microwave.
Then push the button 3 times and I mix it.
Then I put salt and pepper in and then the butter.
And then I cook it again.
And then I mix it some more.
And then that makes succotash."

Smiles

Wednesday, December 1, 2004 - Caeden started smiling yesterday! Big, real, in-response-to-people smiles! He does have his Daddy's dimples, too! What a sweetie! He sleeps up to 6 hours or so at a time at night sometimes now too!

Updates

We are trying to get things back to "normal" around here. I am feeling pretty good now, and am thankful for that. I saw the urologist this morning and he said by my x-rays from Friday I have passed about half of the kidney stone he broke up. He also said the x-ray showed that my right kidney is clear!!! Not sure how that happened, but I'm glad it did! We scheduled my next ESWL for a few weeks from now. So, hopefully, after that one's done I will be free from kidney stones!

Caeden is one month old today! How does that happen?!? Little babies grow SO quickly! I actually put bedding on the crib in Caeden's room a few days ago, and he has spent a few hours (even some at night!) in it. He is a very snuggly, sleepy guy.

Sylvia is apparently not so sleepy. She is a little ball of fire these days--always on the go. She talks constantly, moves constantly, plays constantly, and keeps us laughing constantly. One is such a fun age, though we can tell TWO is just around the corner. ;)

We think Annah is starting to sing along with her classmates at school and church. Maybe she will actually sing a little bit during her Christmas programs...we hope. She sure sings a lot at home!

Sorry we haven't posted any new pictures for a couple weeks. Our digital camera batteries died, and I haven't found the charger to recharge them yet. Soon!
