Saturday

I got to go clothes shopping today. Tom gave me about $50 dollars to go by some shirts. I came home with about 9 shirts, 1 sweatshirt and a pair of pants for my $50. I hit all the clearance and Columbus Day sales. I feel like I have hit the lottery. I haven't had much to wear since little girl was born.

Paige is standing up in the middle of the floor from a sitting position. She walks from one end of the house to the other.

Kyle is doing great in school. He started reading. I was really worried about the reading issue. He came home fron school reading a couple of his first readers to me. I think it has finally clicked for him. His teacher is the kind of teacher that doesn't punish the kids for something - she finds something that works for that particular child. I am going to be really bummed when we have to find a new teacher.

Justin is hanging out at home with me. He wants to do homework just like Kyle. He is learning his ABC's and can almost count to 20.

Tom is doing great at work. It is really great to see him enjoy every part of his job. You can tell just looking at him that he loves what he does. His office is telling us that the new office will be opened by the first of the year. We will see if this happens.

What a bargin hunter!!!
I can't believe that paige is walking all over the place. Do you still take her to your crops with your group or is she too active now? I know it is hard to contain them when they learn the freedom of mobility. I see Carter changing every day now. He is always doing something new and he is already 5 months old.
Sounds like things are going good for family. I look forward to reading all the blogs.
