Update

I haven't updated in a while because I feel like there is not much to update!  I have been working for 2 months now and love my job but miss my little Penoppers.  The plus side is that I usually get off around 3ish, so I still get to see Penny for a few hours every day and I get to see more of Scott now.

Scott is adjusting to his new setting and mostly loving it.  I think the hardest thing for him is finding things for him and Penny to do, so if anyone has suggestions, I think he would really appreciate it! Those 2 have a lot of fun together though.  The other day I was at work and I got this beautiful picture:

(Kellie, notice the jacket? :) )

Every time I look at Penny I can't believe how big she is!  She is growing up before my eyes!  18 months old today!

She is still such a joy but definitely has a mind of her own!  She is a good listener and does well with following instructions, as long as it's something she wants to do :)

One thing she is really good at is folding her arms for the prayer.  She'll even fold them if she just thinks it's time to pray, like when we sit down at the table or after singing a song in church.  Her new thing is closing her eyes too.

She stole that book from Scott.  For some reason, she has decided she likes adult books much more than children's books and "reads" them all on her own.

 Today, we went to the mall and Penny had to play in all the little coin-operated cars.  She really looked big doing that.  And it was a weird moment for me because for the first time, I actually saw myself in her.  It was just like looking at me when I was younger.

Overall, we are enjoying life!
