1. I had a blast at the Maroon 5/Counting Crows concert back on September 10th. I went with my friend, Kristina, and her friend Leah. Maroon 5 was AWESOME! They always put on a really good show. I am a huge fan of the Counting Crows, but I think most fans in attendance that night would agree that it was NOT their best night. We even ended up leaving early.
2. Our Primary Program that I put together went really well. (I am so glad it is over!) All the kids did so good on their parts and singing. I was really proud of them.
3. The boys looked so cute in their Halloween costumes. Thomas, along with his cousins, was dressed as a gun-toting cowboy, and Andrew was their fat little steer!
I also took WAY too much time making these Halloween spider cupcakes. They turned out really cute, but I really don't know if I'll attempt it again....at least not until next year.
4. ANDREW updates:
He just turned 8 months and this weekend learned to say, "Mamama". It is so sweet. It just melts my heart when he does it. To be honest, he really doesn't know what he's saying, but I love it anyway. Thomas said "Dada" first, so I'm so happy that Andrew's first word was Mom.
Last month Andrew had his final appointment (I say it's final, anyway) with the orthopedic specialist doctor for his club foot. If you'll remember, his left foot was a little turned in when he was born.
Then a couple of over-zealous doctors immediately put my little newborn into a full-leg cast for two weeks and then these awful shoes.
Turns out, he never really had a true club foot. I think he was just laying in a funny position in the womb. So we went through all that trouble and expense (those shoes were pricey!) for nothing. But I am definitely relieved to know that our little boy is ok and it was nothing serious. And as much as I curse doctors, I really am grateful to the nurses and doctors who were doing their best to care for Andrew.
Look at this fat little chunk.....does he look unwell in any way to you?!
