monthly « And Whatever

Yeah, I know November is almost over. But I never got around to doing the October photoblog because of the move. Again, all taken on the G1.

October was a busy month. How busy? The first day of the month, Xander had (minor) surgery. There was lots of bubble blowing and The Price Is Right watching. He went all day without eating, but it didn’t effect his mood one bit!

He had a day at home with us, then spent a weekend with Rob’s parents as we went to St.Louis.

A little bit of playtime around the house after our return. One great thing about Xander is that he rarely plays with his toys the way the kid on the box does, and he always finds the most interesting things to play with. Also, he loves technology and gadgets. I bought that box of floppies for him as a toy.

We had our 18-month doctor’s appointment. He’s in the 95th percentile in height!

And then things got really interesting. My parents and Rob’s watched Xander while we went to Paragould in view of a call. Our schedule for the week:

Rob did an amazing job fitting all of this in our trunk:

It was a busy, stressful week. But God was with us every step of the way.

After a week without us, Xander was very glad to see Rob again at the airport.

And so we began the process of packing up and moving out. I found several things I hadn’t thought about in years. Below is a tract about witnessing to Jews that was too awful to throw away, and some of my high school poetry.

Boxes, boxes everywhere. The movers arrived at 7am, and we hurried to finish the last few boxes as they were loading into the truck. By 8pm, our house was empty and scrubbed clean.
