September 22-28th

Well this week we spent a lot of time outside because of the wonderful weather. We did have a pretty busy week running around getting last minute things done before we head down to Texas, but otherthan that we've just been enjoying our last few weeks here in Virginia (at least for a few months).

Madison drove her jeep around the yard (even though she is a horrible driver), while James crawled after her. We even drew Daddy some pretty flowers on the ground with the chalk. Poor James was just covered in pink chalk from crawling through it. He started waving this week and thought he could crawl past me to the playground without me. I had to run after him, I can already see what's instore for me.

I took both of the kids for a health checkup. Their doctor wanted to see them one last time before we headed to Texas. She is so sweet, she even gave me extra Tylenol to bring just in case. Madison is getting very big, she weighed in at 40 pounds even and was 40 inches in height. Little James weighed in at 22.8 pounds and 28 1/2 inches long. They are both just growing so fast!

Avery's been busing this week, he put his leave packet in for process to come to Texas for Christmas. Other than that he has had a lot of time off this week from Advance because of the cooler weather. So we have enjoyed him around the house (at least I have because he cooks).

As for me, well I'm just getting things together to begin packing this week. I un-packed all my old work clothes from boxes and washed them so they are ready to pack. I'm so happy to be able to work a little while I'm down there. Getting a list together of what I need to bring down there. I got all of Jeannette's bridal shower invitations mailed out and finally finished all of James's birthday invites so they are ready to be mailed.
