Update
Well, as most of you know by now, our offer on the house was accepted. We're hoping and praying to close before Thanksgiving. Our final loan approval is in, so we're only waiting on the report on the appraisal that we believe occurred earlier this week.
I've now completed three weeks at the University of Denver. I'm beginning to feel more settled about the job change though I still miss my friends and work at Carroll University (some of whom sent me these beautiful flowers at the end of my first week at DU).
The DU campus is incredibly beautiful, and there are many great programs here. The people I work with are very nice and welcoming.
Shayne has somehow managed to keep his sanity being cooped up in the RV with a four month-old baby. Addi absolutely detests her car seat (even worse than Hannah did), so the ride to drop off and pick up Hannah from school isn't much fun. It's not all bad though, and we are very grateful to have the RV (thank you Mom & Dad) and to not be stuck in a hotel, but we will be much more appreciative of our house when we get moved in.
Halloween
We went to Hannah's school on Saturday before Halloween for their Fall Festival. Hannah dressed up in her Laura Ingalls costume, and had a lot of fun.
She worked very hard to win me a cake in the cake walk, playing over 20 times before she won the cake she wanted to get me. On Monday, we went trick-or-treating in our new neighborhood. It was wonderful clear, crisp weather, and Hannah declared it "the best Halloween ever!" The neighborhood was full of kids and nearly every house participated. I now know I need to stock up on candy for next year. :-). Here is a picture of the girls at the end of that evening. (For a couple of more pictures, see our Facebook album.)
Inchworm
Last, but not least, our four-month-old baby started scooting a little bit already. It is an interesting way to move somewhere even if it is not the most efficient. I can't imagine what life is going to be like when she can really move. Enjoy the video!
