It’s Friday night.  The baby is in bed and the hubby is off to work and I thought I better blog now because who knows when I’ll think about it or have a chance to next.  November’s weather  has been pretty tolerable this year.  I just finished the final book of the Anne of Green Gables Series.  I really enjoyed the books although I was a little dissappointed because after the first few books it became less about Anne and more about the other people that came and went in her life.  They were still really good though.  Bryan’s work has been ok.  It’s another job in his big portfolio that he doesn’t really love.  Maybe nursing isn’t for him.  He doesn’t seem very happy at any place that he works.   Well, he at least has to finish school since we’ve invested so much money for him to go and like 8 years.  Mona ate Bryan’s dinner tonight.  I had it out on the counter for him for when he woke up and he slept a few hours longer than I had anticipated and by then I had forgot all about it.  Andi and I spent the evening playing in her bedroom.  She pulled all the books off her bookshelf and all the toys out of her baskets.  She is getting really terrible at meal time.  She throws her entire dinner on the floor some nights and then I don’t know if I should find her something else she will like or not give her anything since she didn’t seem to want it.  She is also getting into the temper tantrum stage and if something isn’t exactly how she wants it she lets us know.  Isn’t she too young to be like this?  On the plus side.  She’s such a great little girl.  She just tells us story after story in her own little language and has such a little sense of humor always laughing at her stories and us.  Still, anytime she hears music she’s up and dancing away.  She does a lot of taking things out and putting them back together.  She gets into our kitchen drawers and pulls all the sandwhich bags and saran wrap out of the box and then tries to put them back.  She also takes all the utensils out of the drawer and puts them back in.  She does this with kleenex and toys and books and diapers.  You name it.  Andi is starting to give kisses and does the little smack.  It’s nice to be loved back.  She says all kinds of words now.  Fish – pronounced fisk, hot pronounced hock, baby pronounced buba, car pronounced ca, keys, book, bird, my, me, wow, Mona, Tanner and a bunch more that I should start a little log of.  She is finally getting daring enough to take steps on her own.  I thought she’d be such a good walker by the time she did it on her own but she still seems to have a ways to go.  She seems to be in a huge hurry and doing a running fall rather than slow and steady.  We have a busy week planned.  Tomorrow Maggie and Dan are in town so we will spend some time with them.  Sunday I am going to the Packer game with Dad.  Monday we are having a birthday dinner for Bryan at Beef Eaters.  Tuesday is the Christmas parade.  Wednesday I don’t have anything other than the usual work.  Thursday is Thanksgiving.   For those of you that didn’t hear, Bryan’s uncle was on his motorcylce in Florida and hit by another car.  He was very seriously injured.  He has gone thru multiple surgeries, he had a lot of organ failures and has been sedated and on a ventelator ever since the accident.  We would appreciate lots of prayers for his recovery.  Bryan told me yesterday that Uncle Charlie has just been taken off the ventilator.  I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving.
