where has the time gone?


I can't believe my last post was over a month ago! Yikes...


(this is Steve and Jack at the pond around Jordan Creek Town Center in Des Moines...Jack loved to watch the goldfish)

Things have been a little crazy in the Stepec household. One of the major changes is that Jack's daycare lady moved out of town so we have no daycare. But praise the Lord we have wonderful friends who have stepped in. He goes 2 days a week to 2 different houses and Steve has Friday off. It's worked out really well so far and Jack seems to really enjoy being able to go to Wal-Mart, McDonalds, the library, and who knows where else when Steve and I are working. The tricky part is I try to leave work right at 4:00 to go get him, so I'm often behind on school things...oh well, that pile of stuff will still be there the next day!

(mom putting Jack to work with the dustbuster...you've got to start somewhere, right?)

Jack also had an asthma attack which was scary but what a relief to have a "plan" and know what to do at 1:00 in the morning. He's not too sure about his "ducky face" or his inhaler, but he takes his medicine morning and night all on his own (oh yes, we do bribe him with 3 chocolate chips).



I enjoyed a weekend in the cities with Trisha, April, and Erin. We hit up Target, Mall of America, Noodles and Company, TGI Fridays, Brueggers Bagels, and Erin and I ended our trip to Borders. We have so much fun, and my stomach hurt from laughing so much! They bring such joy and fun to even things that shouldn't really be funny! Thanks girls.

Love the pics of Jack! He is so perfect, Amy. I can't wait to squeeze him again!.... maybe over Christmas....
Had a BLAST in MPLS with you! It was just what I needed-- too many giggles and wayyy too many treats!
Love you.

I second what April said about our girls weekend in the cities. That was a ton of fun, and I'm ready for the next one!

Love ya!
