Wow!! It's been a long time since I updated. I really have been busy but enought with excuses, Here's what's been going on.

First things first...Update on Kambree -
She is almost 11 months old & full of it! She is always doing new & cute things that amuze us. Lately she has been climbing into, on & over everything. She pulls herself up, cruises furniture, pushes around toys, etc, etc. She even learned how to climb over our make shift baby gate we were using. She is amazed by our cats...or anyone's cats that is. She is always looking for them & calling "Cat" or "Kitty" but can't quite get to them before they bolt away from her. Lol! If they only liked her like she does them :(

Lately, she is fascinated with her tongue. She sticks it out like a snake & pulls it back in lalalalala...It's too funny. She also sticks it out all the time & makes the motor boat sounds. She still loves bath time. She would spend all day in there if I would let her. Her favorite toys are books, cell phones or remotes. If you say "Hello" to her she will put her hand up to her ear like she's talking on the phone. Super cute!

She is still a very picky eater but loves cookies, pudding, cake...you know, the good stuff! Still no teeth but has no problems munching on these things. She likes throwing things to the ground & having one of us pick them up or playing catch with her. Also just pulling anything & everything out bags, buckets, or bins. She definately keeps us busy. Crazy to think she'll soon be 1. Where has the time gone??

Also just an update with me & Jesse. Jesse's back is doing much better since he had the injections a little over 2 weeks ago. Hope that this continues so he is able to live somewhat pain free. He is no longer working for TURN but is studying to get his insurance license & will be taking his test this weekend. Once he gets his license, he will work with Grandpa Elwin at Hoyle Insurance Inc & eventually take over if things go as planned. It will be nice for him to be able to get out of the house and be active again. These last 4 months have been hard on both of us but I feel now that he is able to get around easier things will begin to get better!

For me, I'm still going to school & working at DWS. Work is busy but a little scary too. The economy definately increases my workload & makes me realize how quickly your lives can change especially after talking to so many people each day who were doing well but now have been laid off or had their business fail. Lots of reorginizations are going on at my work as well. Come April/May we may be told we will be on different teams. I will be able to adjust I'm sure but have had so many team changes in the last year I would love to find a semi-permanent "home." Although we are going through the changes I have to focus on the fact that essentially at the end of the day I will still be doing what I currently do but my primary function or team may have changed. We will make it through. I'm excited school is almost over for this year. I am currently in an English class that has me reading & writing way more than I would choose to do on my own. I will be happy to have it over with and to finally have my AAS degree. It's been a long time coming.
