For about a month she’s been slowly scooting around, crab-style kind of like her brother did long ago, but with a sideways twist. But yesterday she decided she really wanted to start going places instead of crawling a step or two and sitting, and I suddenly decided I need to start being very careful with her around the stairs. We even played a seven-month-old peekaboo version of hide and seek around the house yesterday while the older two napped. Good job Heidi!

If you’ve followed my blog in the past, you may have noticed that I haven’t posted in a few months. Nothing is wrong–I just got busy with a third child! :-) And I got a couple of negative comments that put me off for a bit, but that wouldn’t really have stopped me if I didn’t have some extra “help” around. I’m still here and I still get your comments! I just have some real-life things that got more interesting than writing. Thank you to those who expressed concern at my uncommunicativeness. How’s that for a word?

We’ve had a fun summer. Three reunions (Grange, Bushman, and Jensen) kept my travel bug pretty satisfied. I got a calling teaching the CTR7 Primary class at church (that’s the 7-year-olds) and have been enjoying getting to know the children in my class. Just this last Saturday Sonja & Dick took the kids and I to Train Town (I think it’s in Napa), and we had an impressively great time riding rides and appreciating the scenery, especially considering the 100+ degree weather.

Oh, and an announcement! My good husband is going back to school this semester to finish the last of his MBA. Yay Colin! I’m very excited that he’s decided it’s time to get it done, even though it will mean some sacrifices in terms of time and money.

I pulled out the video camera and sorta got it on film, though she wasn’t really interested in a repeat performance. Fun to get some memories on tape, especially with Maggie in the background for additional commentary and entertainment. Maggie even composed and performed an original song for us on the spot!
