well, first of all...lana didn't make it through the weekend. i think she was sick or something. it was kinda sad, but i didn't get a chance to become too attached to her because we only had her a few days. a.j. got some really cute pictures of her with elijah, though. maybe i'll put some up.
by the way, i had to put this in here before i forget...i just think it's so cute...elijah pointed at the bananas on the counter this morning and said "nana" like he wanted to eat one! i didn't know he even knew what those were! then i also said okay, say goodbye! and he waved bye bye! i'm just amazed sometimes at what he knows. he is learning so much every day. i love it!
the other news is that i will no longer be working at ascot. things have been really slow and we had a meeting a few weeks ago and our boss said we really needed to cut down our hours more and i said well, i can take a couple days a week off if you want, and then she said well would you be willing to do a voluntary layoff? and i thought about it and talked to a.j. and we decided that would be fine. so i'm not working now...and they'll call me back if things pick back up, but i'm not really counting on it anytime soon. it's kind of overwhelming how much is changing lately, BUT i had been wanting to go to school anyway, and i dont' know if i really ever would have stopped working there if this hadn't happened. and i like the job, but i really really really want to be a teacher, so i wouldn't be completely happy staying there. so i guess this is a good thing!
i'm really excited to get more time with elijah for a couple of months and i'm excited to be home more and be able to be with a.j. whenever he's free...especially since he'll be leaving in less than two months.
plus, karen kingsbury's new book in the sunrise series comes out next week and i'll have plenty of time to read it! friday is my last day at work, so i guess we'll "celebrate?" with the apple festival! i am excited about that!! i love the apple festival and this year elijah can ride rides!!
well, that's about it. here are a few pictures of elijah and lana. and then i'll stick a couple more of my favorites from this week. have a great week!!

Sorry about Lana. The pictures of her with Elijah are so cute! Glad things are working out for you. Aren't you glad God knows exactly what He's doing?!
Your little guy is one of the cutest around.
I hope you enjoy the time at home with him. Like that is even a question.

awe, sorry to hear about the cat and your job. it is good timing so you can spend more time with aj before he leaves!!
Sorry about the job glad you have more time with AJ and Elijah, sorry about the cat. Why did AJ say he's having a baby on his facebook?
jessica bender...i can't see your page! can you invite me? my email is vikkimaldonado@yahoo.com do you have pictures of appollos on there? :)
You didn't say you weren't pregnant. So?
And if the weather is nice this weekend we are up for the festival.
Oh I am so excited to get Karen's new book, I haven't had time to head out to the bookstore and pick it up, so I have been going crazy but I hate that it is the last book in her series .. I keep thinking well, now what?!? Even though it does suck that your not working, but yet it still has it's blessings in it as well, and you get to stay at home with Elijah! That is awesome! Thanks for the encouraging words, it does seem though that whenever I kinda question that I am not pregnant I either get really sick, or really tired so it is just kinda reassurance for me I guess : )
Wow, $60 a week! That is wonderful. I haven't found anything lower than $120 up here in Elkhart. But if you know of anyone, please give me a heads up!
