Fall is here! The weather may not be as cool as I would like, but we have had a couple of "cool" fronts to give us a break from the heat. I have never been more ready for cooler weather, I guess since I have my own personal heater growing inside of me. I had a doctor's appointment last week and everything is going well. Unfortunately I also got sick last week and finally gave in and went to the doctor on Monday to find out I had an upper respiratory infection. They put me on an antibiotic which I am not at all thrilled to be on. There is something that doesn't settle right about taking medicine to kill something in my body while a baby is growing inside. On the positive side, the girls have gone an entire month of school without getting sick! Last year, we did not make it a full month the entire year. I am not sure if it is the flu shots they got, or better immune systems from being in school last year, but I am really thankful they have stayed healthy so far.
In preparation for the new baby coming, we bunked the girls beds to make more room in the house. I wasn't sure if Emily was ready to be on the top bunk, but she has done great. Ally has only attempted to try and crawl to the top once, she fell about half way up (not getting hurt too bad) and has not attempted it again. The house seems a little bigger because we moved all of the toys into the girls room. It is also easier to clean up everyday because all of the toys go into the same spot instead of all over the house.
Dave has finally moved into outside sales!!! This is his third week and he has been riding around with other salesmen trying to get a feel for the position. He is torn between wanting to go out on his own and try and sell as much as he can and riding with and learning from the more experienced salesmen. We are really excited that he is finally in outside sales because that means in about a year from now, he should be getting his own store to manage!
So fall is officially here and with that comes lots of exciting fall happenings!
Just Between Friends is having two huge sales coming up and my mom is going to come and go with me to one of them. We have an outing to
Dewberry Farm planned with some church friends and hopefully we will get our pumpkin there! We have signed the girls up for a siblings class at the hospital to prepare them for the baby. Along with school, doctor's appointments, Dave's birthday, Thanksgiving, and Christmas, the time is going to fly before the baby comes!
