Curious Buddies, is Noah's favorite show we watch it probably once a day. It is about farm animals and there is a fun duck song on there, QUACK QUACK WADDLE WADDLE!!!! He is scooting around everywhere.
Noah could not figure out where his cereal star had gone. He is learning to sit in the booster seat while Mommy and Daddy are finishing eating. We have learned that stars and bananas keep him busy.

I was reading to Noah tonight and I felt like these words where just what I thought my life was like at this moment.
"Congratulations!
Today is your day.
You're off to Great Places.
You're off and away!!
You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on you own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
You'll look up and down the streets. Look em' over with care. About some you will say, I don't choose to go there. With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet, you're too smart to go down any not-so-good street.
And you may not find any you'll want to go down. In that case. of course you'll head straight out of town.
Out there things can happen and frequently do to people as brainy ad footsy as you. And when things start to happen don't worry. Don't stew. Just go right along. You'll start happening too.
You'll be on your way up! You'll be seeing the great sights!
You'll join the high fliers who soar to high heights!!
Except when you don't.
Because sometimes you won't.
I'm sorry to say so
but, sadly, it's true
that Bang-ups and Hang-ups
can happen to you.
You can get all hung up
in a prickly perch
And your pals will fly on.
You'll be left in a lurch.
Simple it's not. I'm afraid you will find, for a mind maker upper to make up his mind.
You can get so confused that you'll start in to race down long wiggled roads at a break necking pace and grind on for miles across weirdish wild space, headed I fear, toward a most uselss place.
The Waiting Place......
.....for people just waiting. Waiting for a train to go, or a bus to come, or a plane to go, or the mail to come, or the rain to go, or the phone to ring, or the snow to snow, or waiting around for a Yes or a No, or waiting for their hair to grow. Everyone just waiting.
On and on you will go and I know you'll go far and face up to your problems whatever they are. You'll get mixed up, of course. as you already know. You'll get mixed up with many strange birds as you go. So be sure when you step. Step with care and great tact and remember that Life's a Great Balancing Act. Just never forget to be dexterous and deft. And never mix up your right foot with your left.
And you will succeed?????? Yes!!!! You will, indeed (98 and 3/4% guaranteed!!)
Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So get on your way!!!"
Dr. Seuss
Okay so not words to LIVE by, but they were somewhat humorous for what today was like. Drew is trying to figure out is schedule for school. We have both applied for numerous jobs. And the weird thing is...... I who would love to stay home with Noah, has been on one interview and got a second call back for tomorrow. Then we will figure out if Drew can take night classes and keep Noah during the day!!! So much to think about. We are getting use to this city and making new friends. We have actually meet friends of our friends, and made some connections that way. We have been to several different churches around and are looking in to where we can connect and serve here. I know we are blessed to be here and have so many oppurtunities.
