Random Going-Ons

Here are some great things that have happened to us recently and some things going on this month:

1. My sister Janna coming to stay with us.  She's still got another 7 weeks.  Yea!

2. A month ago, we had some new neighbors move in across the walkway from our apt.  Peyton now has two new girl friends to play with.  She already loves them!

3. The Saints have their first game next week, and we're so excited!  PARTY!  Geaux Saints!

4. In 21 days, I will be a larger number.  I'm getting a little anxious about this one.  I will be advancing to another decade, and this is really bumming me out. 

5. We are seriously potty training Peyton.  Well, really the daycare is having to do most of the work.  She is pitching a fit every time she has to sit on the potty, but they are making her anyway.  At home, I'm offering a few little pieces of candy as rewards for pottying.  It's working wonders at home.

6. I am really thankful for our new church.  We are enjoying getting to know everyone and love worshiping the Lord there.  It's an exciting place to be right now!

7. Speaking of church, we have to have pictures made for the directory tomorrow.  I never look forward to picture taking with kids. It's extremely stressful.  Hopefully the results will be worth all the work and stress.

8. Please continue to pray for my co-workers little baby boy.  As I type, he is undergoing surgery to remove the right middle lobe of his lung because of congenital lobar emphysema.  He is 10 days old.

9. We had a back to school cookout for the students at my work this week. We had a lot of students and a great time! Nevermind that the humidity was 95%!  HA!

10. I am so thankful for the wonderful invention of the space heater.  What would office workers all over the United States do without these nice little heat-producing contraptions?
