Waiting to get settled. Izzi is in school, and seems to be enjoying it. She comes home with new songs every week. She is going five days a week from 8-2pm, so she looks for a little quiet time when she gets home. But otherwise seems to be enjoying it and from all reports her teachers are enjoying her in class. NOTE: As I was typng this I went away from the computer for a minute. Izzi, took over my computer, opened a word document and began typing away her letters.

Lexi finally decided that Grandma and Grandpa were ok on Halloween. She now will climb up in their laps and give hugs and kisses readily to them. She still will cry when Rick or I go in the bathroom and shut the door. When I go, I just take her along and let her wash her hands while I go my thing, otherwise you hear her crying at the door and trying to get it open. It is an access issue.

Lexi also has a new friend, her name is Ella and she is a couple of months older than Lexi. I did not get to see it except in photos, but from what I am told Lexi and Ella played togther all day, following each other from one play area to the next.

We are waiting to hear about a house we put an offer in on. Hopefully it will come through, it is in a great family neighborhood, with a playground and pool a block away, and the elementary school in the neighborhood as well. We decided to give it a trial run for trick or treating and were pleased with the family get togethers on the block. For trick or treating Izzi was Snow White and Lexi was a bumblebee. Although she enjoyed playing dress up all week in different costumes.
