Well here I am trying to post to my own blog., where is Hanga when I need her.Of course it has been a while. Let's see where to start.... we are all moved in down here is hot south Georgia. It has been an adjustment. I thought that the girls would probably need a little while to adjust. They love living at Nana and Pappa's, but the not sleeping at night is about to drive me over the edge. They are scared of every new little sound. It is getting better though.
Estella started School Last Thursday. The first day was awful I felt so bad for her. she kept saying as long as she just imagined that she was at her other school, and her teacher was Mrs. Rogula(her teacher last year) that everything was fine. so The second day she cried and cried .She didn't want to go to school. I told her it would get better and sent her on her way. I worried about her all day hoping that she would have a better day. she came home Friday so happy and excited. I was so relieved. she made a new friend and she seemed to be very excited.
Amelia has really done well with all the changes. She has of course had a few Amelia moments, but all in all she has been a delight. She will start preschool this Wednesday. She says she isn't going to go to school so we will see who win the battle. lucky for me I have started taking Grandaddy to the pool Monday, Wednesday& Friday so Nana has volunteered to get Amelia to school on those days. I must say that I am Definitely getting the better end of the deal. I am not sure how long Nana will stick to the agreement after a few mornings of having to get Amelia up. Amelia really has enjoyed going to see her Great grandparents any time she wants. She knows that she needs to go give Grandaddy his morning hug. She also has spent quite a bit of time with Grandmom. They have colored and watched a few movies together. I am so grateful that we have this chance to get to spend time with them. They are such a joy.
Gretchen has decided to grow up fast. It seemed like the day after we got here she really got the walking thing figured out. she is everywhere. she now has 8 teeth. she isn't quite sure how she feels about Grandaddy yet. She will come around though.
David FINALLY finished the summer semester of school. It was crazy we are all happy it is over with. He will start the fall semester next Monday. He won't be taking as many classes so hopefully it won't be as crazy as summer was. He is going to be doing an internship at a local prosthetic clinic here in Tifton. It will count as one of his classes for school. He also got called as the first counselor in the young mens presidency yesterday.
Me I am trying to finds my place in a small town. I have been taking Grandaddy to the pool and While he swims I work out. It has been good for me. My back has been hurting a bit here lately, so hopefully the exercise will help. I love spending time with grandaddy and grandmom. They have really brought me a lot of joy and I am so grateful for the love they show me. Gradaddy said the other day when you come into this Family you are 100% a part no matter if is by marriage or birth. He sure makes you feel that way. I was called as the nursery leader in the ward yesterday. I can't say that I am thrilled by it, but I guess I should be grateful I didn't get put in cub scouts. So I will serve my time and hope it passes quickly.
Well I guess that is all for now. I will try to do better to update more often now that I know how to.
