It's November?

Yesh, it's been a while since I last posted (though not as long as some people I could mention ;-) ) We've been trucking away here in Radford. We still have our foster kids - and Colby of course! Brandon and I have pretty much come to the conclusion that we're crazy and have probably bitten off more than we can chew by taking in three foster kids, but we're too stubborn to give up. Their next court date is in March so we'll see what happens from there. Things have been going better between Noah and Colby. Their playing much better together, though there are still some issues from time to time - but when are there not between brothers. Ariyana is learning more words and is an accomplished singer. She sings all the time :-) Sahara is growing so fast. She just started to eat solid foods and I swear she will be crawling any day now. She has been pushing up on her knees and looking at things across the room with such wanting, but she hasn't yet figured out how to move forward. She's very good a moving backwards :-)

Everything has been going well with the pregnancy. I'm about twelve weeks and I haven't been sick and my appetite is starting to be not as selective. A couple of weeks ago a salad turned my stomach, but I ate one at Applebees last weekend. My students keep asking about the baby all the time. They want names, genders, due dates and everything. I keep telling them to chill out because I'm not due any time soon and it's too early to know anything.
