Home at Last!

Although many of you know, we are finally back in Minnesota. We are having a great time. I started work again last weekend. It's a pretty nice place. BIG. I haven't worked more than one day yet but this coming week is going to be full of working and all that wonderful stuff.
We went to church last weekend and the kids had a blast in Sunday school. It was nice to go back. We are planning on having Bell babtised there sometime soon. I have to talk to the people we want as god-parents and find out when is good for them.
A couple days ago we got a new car. It's a 1997 Dodge Grand Caravan. It's really nice. It's got a few flaws but nothing big.
We are really looking forward to Halloween. We are getting the kids their costumes tomorrow I think. Or on Saturday. Should be fun.
Other than that. Nothing else going on.
Have a wonderful night!
Love, Melissa

Wonderful couple of days

We have had a wonderful couple of days! Yesterday my Steven lost his second tooth and today, my little Katie started potty training! I didn't want to start potty training yet, but the other day it was either get the baby diapers or get Katie diapers (she only had a few) so we of course opted for the baby getting diapers. She is doing GREAT with it. She wasn't having any of it this morning but later this afternoon she came around. She started telling me that she had to go potty and would go every time she did tell me. We only had ONE accident all day and that was this morning! AND she POOHED! I'm so proud of her. Maybe she is more ready than I thought she was.
Have a great night... can't wait till Tuesday!
Love,
Missy and family
