Was my last post really in AUGUST? Wow! That is incredibly horrible. So much for 'keeping tabs on the Eystads'! Well, I guess this is the reason I have stayed away for so long. So much has happened and I don't really know where to start.
Somewhere around September Emma started crawling, although the day before she started I was pretty sure she was going to start walking first. She seemed to have way more interest. Then one Saturday she woke up and just crawled over to Corey. Seriously, that is how it happened. Everything is always on Emma's terms and this was no exception. She has walked along furniture since before she was crawling. She is almost walking now but not quite. She zooms around furniture and if we are on the floor with her she tries to stand up and walk to us on her own. It is obvious that she is pushing herself and really trying. Corey has better luck with her than I do. She just wants to come to be so bad that she chooses the fastest mode of transportation-crawling. We are just getting over pink eye now which she got last week-end and she is battling a bad cough/possible upper respiratory infection. Poor kid. She is still the cutest button ever. For Halloween she was Minnie Mouse-pics are on Facebook. Mickey's Club house is still her favorite show; however she enjoys Elmo and we even watched Monster's Inc the other night and she was pretty 'in' to that too. She eats anything and everything, still loves bread. In fact, she still gets excited when she sees the loaf come out of the cabinet. She is still a happy baby and we couldn't ask for anything more. On October 9 we had an early birthday party with some close family. She loved her mini cake and her gifts.
I have started my Masters program. I'm attending Adler Graduate School in Richfield for Marriage and Family Therapy M.S. I know, its a far cry from my Business degrees however it has been a goal of mine since early High School years. With the recent layoff from Rasmussen, it has allowed me to persue things that I truly want. I absolutely love classes and the students I have met so far.
In the midst of everything on October 31 I started working for my dad, another goal of mine since my early years. I truly love it!! Things are going very well so far.
Hmmm....as you probably have guessed the racing season has ended; however we did race after the 'poof' post. We went to Alexandria for the Fall Classic. Emma got some quality time with her nanas. It was a good time, thanks to my dad for allowing us to take the RV. Without it, I am pretty sure we wouldn't have made the trip.
Well, that is about it. I am sure I am missing milestones and I could spend days telling you about all the cute things Emma does but these are some highlights of our lives since Aug. Now that I have bit the bullet and caught myself up, I hope to continue..............................but we'll see :)
