Recent Events

How the time flies. Bob's been deployed for three weeks, Margot is six weeks old, and the Cornelius grandparents were just here for a week- and now they're gone. Blink your eyes around here and you'll miss something. 

While Bob and Betty were here we went to the pumpkin patch and picked out a couple of cute pumpkins- none as cute as Margot in her little pumpkin hat, of course!


Here I am: 30 years old. Here Margot is: 6 weeks old. 


I turned 30 on October 15th.  Despite Bob being gone, it was a perfectly lovely day, full of lots of fun things: breaking down to buy a new computer after our seven year old computer finally bit it. The new one is an iMac- AWESOME! Tax free on post- AWESOME! I had a massage and went to dinner with a few friends while Grandma and Grandpa baby sat. Which was so sweet of them.

Margot is learning to be awake without crying as much, and she is smiling a little bit now. Mind you- she has to be SUPER happy to smile. I'm sure they'll come easier to her soon. Baby steps, baby steps. Here is a picture of her hanging out with a cute teddy bear Uncle Bryan gave her. Clearly they're buds already.

Lizzy--- she's precious! I love that last one with the teddy bear. Her eyes are sooo sweet and expressive. We've both hit the 6 week peak, so hopefully the fussyness will decrease little by little now :)

Love ya!!

So happy to hear an update and that you are surviving all that's going on. Margot is adorable!!! Glad you had a nice 30th and were able to have family visit with you - that's always a great time!
