Leavin' On a Jet Plane

"We're leavin' on a jet plane, don't know when we'llbe back again....." :(

Emma and I fly out to Minnesota on Friday, and move back in with the 'rents (Grandma and Grandpa Loerch)!!!! It will be a change for ALL of us, but we sure are grateful that they are willing and able to let us stay with them while we see if we can give the house a few months to seel, before we think about renting it out.

We sure are going to miss dad, emma has become especially attached lately, and really doesn't wnat aything to do with me (but that is a wonderful to watch - the two of them together).

You can see her here in the pics, riding Cooper (we think for halloween mayb e we'll get him a saddle and her a cowgirl outfit!) - eating peanut butter - wearing dad's back-pack, spinnig on her sit-n-spin - and playing with Cooper on the floor.

Everyday she is learnig more and more... She is recognizing feet, balloons, dogs, cats, girls and boys in her books, she puled the ground coffee out of the cupboard the other day and then reached for the coffee pot, she ate 1/2 pint of blueberries at the farmer's market, and carried around a costco BOX of wipes with one hand! She has also said "da da" in a real sweet voice, but will only really talk when promted and it is repeated over and over again, but you can see the wheels in her mind spinning as she thinks about it.

This is the last post for a few days, as we are in the midst of packing hell, and will ot be unpacked until this weekend. Wish us luck - love to all...
