So, let's see, what is going on on the Knittel front:
- Stephen just wrapped up a week long vacation. He spent the first few days in Des Moines with his sister, offering moral support and distraction as she recuperated her bad car accident that happened Saturday---she's ok, as well as everyone else in the 5-car travesty--- but it has been a very stressful and trying event. He spent the latter part of the week chilling at home. Although he has enjoyed letting loose for a few days, I think he's anxious to get back to work tomorrow.
- My stepbrother Jason and his wife Dollie brought into the world their first child, Micah James, yesterday at 10:10pm. This is really exciting as it is the first grandchild on the Blackley/Hazelrigg side of the family. Mom and Stan drove up from MO to meet the new little guy, and swung by Pella this evening for a short visit and dinner. It was good to see them. They have the "we're new grandparents" glow about them and it is really cute.
- We intend to spend Thanksgiving with my family this year. Considering that we might be preparing to move, (or not) we cannot pin down commitments yet. Christmas will be with the Knittels.
- Howie and Zoe (the cats) are doing fine. Howie has taken up following me to the toilet every time we have to go, and literally begging us to turn on the tub faucet so he can drink. It is ridiculous and adorable- you know how it is. Zoe is content sleeping and begging for food when we are a few minutes late feeding her
- School is... going. I'll be glad when this semester is over. Just a few more weeks.
I think that is about it for now. Stephen is crashed on the sofa, and I am exhausted and needing to get up in a mere four hours. Goodnight!
