Still alive...

So I started working on Monday....and yes, we are all still alive over here. :) It is going pretty well- Brenton is just extremely clingy to me after I get home in the evenings. He spent a little more time than usual with daddy this week, and spent some time with Great Grandma Lota and Great Grandpa Bob, and today our friend Aimee is coming over with her 4 year old, Quenton. Quenton LOVES Brenton so they should have a great time, and Brenton should still get his nap and down time while Quenton goes to preschool. Thank you for all of your thoughts and prayers as we are trying to figure things out and for all of your help if you are helping!

Otherwise, we have been enjoying the weather- except when it is raining. On Earth Day we went to the zoo before I had to go to work and I got to plant a broccoli plant, an alleged "cauliflower" plant, a pansy, some wild sunflower seeds, and some tomato seeds. It was WAY more fun for me than for Brenton- but he was pretty excited that there was a total of about 6 billion people at the zoo that day, mostly small elementary school children. Guess what, though- my broccoli is already growing!!!! Times two- because that alleged "cauliflower" plant is actually broccoli!

We went to see Great Great Grandma Frances last night and hung out with all the "Greats" on that side for a while and it was really fun. Brenton is really picking things up VERY quickly now, so just in the time that we were there he stood WITHOUT HOLDING ON for a few short moments, learned how to put a cup over his mouth and make funny noises with daddy, and learned how to blow bubbles into the cup as you are taking a drink....all thanks to daddy. :) It is literally getting to the point that Brenton can see something one time and immediately repeat it-- INCREDIBLE!

Ok...no pictures today, but I will post more soon! Have a good rest-of-the-week! And come visit me at Emprise Bank Saturday morning!
