A Quiet Weekend

Emma and i have been keeping busy the past few days. We have learned to blow kisses at strangers and friends and have now mastered the art of taking off our pants and diaper. Okay, "we" haven't mastered that, lol, Emma has. She's also chatting up a storm with me during the day. I feel so sorry for our neighbors cat named Kit Kat; every time Emma and i go out to the mail box, Emma starts looking for Kit Kat. Kit Kat use to hang out near my bird bath, but after having a little toddler scream "kitttyyy" and chase madly after you, well, i think that Kit Kat now hides at the sound of our front door opening. Poor cat....

One of the things that Emma and i love to do is to go to Publix. I love shopping there and Emma, well, loves the balloons and their friendly staff. I wouldn't go near the bakery for fear of a sweet meaning bakery staff person handing Emma a cookie but yesterday, well, the sweet meaning bakery staff lady found us at the meat counter, cookie in hand. I wish that i could say that Emma hated the cookie, but nope, she was thrilled with "kookkie" and blew the bakery lady a kiss. It seems that Emma and i have something in common, lol, our love of "kookkies".

Preschool starts back again on Tuesday and i'm looking forward to those few hours to get somethings done. I'm on the MOPS Steering Team this year as their Publicity girl-so i get to do the newsletters for the meetings. I truly thought that i would be a complete flop at the newsletter seeing how i'm a bit computer challenged....but i love putting the newsletter together. The Steering Team is an interesting mix of women who are all ages with all ages of children. To say that it's nice to get together with other Moms is an understatement. The church that we meet at provides the day care during the meetings, so it is just a time for Mommies. We eat lunch together, talk, chat and laugh. If you've not ever been to a MOPS meeting and have a pre-schooler aged child, please find your local group and join!

And for some big news....Robert and i are seriously considering adopting again. We've talked about it for a while now and are still in the deciding stages, but i think that within the next year or so, we will be putting together another dossier. We would like to wait to see what will happen in Guatemala and if that country will open up again but we are also looking into other programs. I would love for Emma to have a sibling who is also from Guatemala. We'll see....
