I really don't like when I do this...I travel, recoup from travel, etc....and then so many things have happened that I cannot possibly blog about them all! Sooo....I'll make a really long story as short as possible. We went to Texas & it was great! We were able to visit with family & friends and I was so thankful for time with everyone. Clay got to play with his cousins J&J. Evy got to meet her girl bestie, Kate, and her boy bestie, Judd. We visited with some of both mine and Clif's extended families. AND even fit in a few trips to Sonic...seriously I miss vanilla Dr. Pepper's like you wouldn't believe. At the end of the month we could be moving....next door. Really, literally...right next door. Shortest move ever? We're apprehensive & excited as most people buying a house usually are, I guess. And that pretty much brings us to the present. That was a really short story coming from me!

Tomorrow Evy turns 5 months old...so I'll fill you in on her then. But, for now I'll just tell you about Clay. The day before we left for Texas he was running a pretty high fever, with no source of infection....so the Dr. decided to do a catheter (sp?). Yuck. That made for a rough day of travel. I won't go in to details....Anyway, he healed and everything was fine. It was a mystery...but he's perfectly healthy now! He's a serious pretender these days. He loves to be a cowboy, a farmer, a "worker man" (builder/construction worker), a "puffer man" (train engineer), a birdie, and baby sheep, a firefighter....those are just a few of his characters. And his cousins taught him that if you sing a song...people will clap...so thanks Jack for teaching Clay about performing! He's still in to shapes. When we were home Doc said, "You are a geometric genius!" And Clay said, "I am not a genus...I a good boy!" The jury is still out on whether he's a good boy...(just kidding). A few days ago I was reading to Clay before his nap and he looked up at me, held my chin with his chubby little hand & said, "Don't worry Mommy, I love you." So...that's a memory I'll have to tuck away and remember as he spins around our house like a tornado...inside of him there is a sweetie...and God is definitely still working on him.
