January

Jackson is growing up so fast! It's amazing how much he understands, even though he is not able to verbalize it! This morning I was leaving for work and we close the gate upstairs so he doesn't get loose while Andy is getting ready. He was in our room watching Curios George on the bed. Just happy as can be. He heard the gate close and started crying! He knew what the noise meant! It didn't help that he knew I was the one walking around. He is such a MOMMA's boy! I love it! He has started asking for Andy more, saying DaDa. Last night, Andy wasn't in the house when Jman was going to bed, so we had to go out to the garage for him to stop saying, "Da Da, Da Da". Of course when we came in he started wanting to see the "kk cat". Very cute!

Now that the new year is here I am anxious for our move. Both positive and negative. I can't wait to be able to stay home and spend time with Jman. That will be the BEST part of life! He is doing so many things and I love to see him with other kids interacting. It will be GREAT to be able to do that everyday!

School bell is going to ring... back to work I go!

Moving

Well, it's out there... we are moving. Not until this summer (late summer if I have anything to say about it), but we are leaving the QCA. We are headed to Northeast Iowa... Waukon to be exact.

Why on earth would we leave? Well, Andy was offered a great position with Farm Bureau... something we couldn't pass up. So, we are headed to NE Iowa. We are lucky, we know people there, since Andy is from Postville... but it will be a change. I am going to stay home and take care of Jackson and any future children we might have. Which I am VERY excited about. But we will be far away from my family and friends. Hopefully, everyone will come to visit us a lot!
