Hey all, sorry it's been awhile since I've blogged about our life... it's been pretty busy and I've just been lazy too! When I get a chance to sit, I rather just sit and eat and do NOTHING! I need to start a new routine now because Ben's getting back to work now... can you believe that, summer is over. We'll see how soon we get into that new routine. I am going to try to possibly sub for one day a week. (I've been really getting that teacher "itch" recently.) Don't get me wrong, I LOVE being home with Rachel. I'm doing what I've always wanted to do being a stay-at-home mom. I guess I just really miss being with my friends at school, being in a school atmosphere, being the teacher in charge of a class.... I really do love teaching. I just don't want to do it full time right now. I am so happy that there is an opportunity to teach part time and not have the full responsibilit that a class room teacher has. I am still praying about this thought of subbing. (Sorry, I'm blabbing now. I just have had this on my mind for a few weeks and needed to get it out!)
Now about Rachel, she's so CUTE!! She is too funny! She is always repeating so many of the words we say. She's getting better each day. I know that she's a bit delayed because of being an only child (that we baby some), but she's very bright too! Anyhow, I've been calculating the number of words she says and it's up to about 70-80. I think that we only understand her though. Alot of times I have to "translate" for her... Ben's getting better at understanding her and my parents are too! It's fun.
Yesterday, Rachel had her 2 yr wellness check up. She weighs 25lbs 2 oz and she's 37 inches long. The dr. said that she's looking very healthy and growing well. She did so well during the shot process too! We prayed about it and she just tensed a bit before the shots, but SHE DIDN'T CRY AT ALL! I wanted to cry, first because she has to go through that and I just have to sit through it and not help, and second, God is so good for answering our prayers. HE is so good!
Well, I best be on my way. I have some pics to upload. I'll be back soon! BTW, I'm here watching a movie with Ben too, so this is kind of taking me long to do, but it's a funny movie so I have to stop and watch and then continue this blog.... The movie is called Sky High... it's pretty funny... it's about super hero's kids... it's silly, but fun. (Better than those R-rated movies out there.)
