Growing girl

Sorry for the delay in an update - even though it hasn't been that long, Papa Butch has been complaining!! Not too much has been happening here in Springfield. This past weekend we went to Ste. Gen for AJ's 10 year highschool reunion. We went to a winery first and then to a bar and saloon after. I think AJ had a good time. I forgot my camera so we have no pics of this event.. Preston and Chloe stayed with Grandma and Papa while we were gone and I think they had a good time. Preston always seems to have fun outside there.

Chloe has become quite the little talker! Any time you come up to her, when she is awake and playful, she gets all excited and starts jabbering. This afternoon Chloe was laying on our bed and Preston was sitting up there with her talking and kissing her. Eventually he went away and I went over to pick her up and she got the biggest smile on her face. It is fun knowing that she recognizes us now and wants to talk and play.

She is getting really close, it seems, to rolling over from her back to her stomach even though she hasn't gone from her tummy to her back. I think that is b/c she continues to hate being on her tummy for very long.

Preston definitely loves being a big brother. He always asks where Chloe is if he can't see her, gives her kisses, tries to calm her down when she starts to cry and sings to her! Preston has been quite accident prone lately. He has bumps and bruises everywhere. It also seems that he is allergic to mosquito bites. They are swelling up like crazy. Tomorrow Preston turns 25 months! I can't believe he is getting so big - he looks like a little guy now compared to pictures taken in May.

Not too much else is going on. Work is going good for both AJ and me. I definitely like Tuesday the best of all of my work days - I wish I could get off at 2:30 every day! Unfortunately I don't think part time is in the near future for me.

We hope everyone has a great week. God Bless!
