Becky went home today. :( She was at our home since the night before Sarah was born. She took kids to preschool, made meals, cleaned the house, changed diapers and messy pull-ups, went to soccer practices and games, selected and hung drapes, got the kids to try new foods, including eating peas with their corn; gave me some time to run errands and get my hair cut, watched movies and played Wii games with the kids, and in general, made sure our home ran like a well-oiled machine.
She has done so much for our family. She took time away from work and her husband to help us out. My kids got so much love and attention with her here. I don't know how they're going to adjust tomorrow, and especially Monday with her gone. I don't know how I'm going to adjust with her gone.
Ethan started crying yesterday when he was told she would be leaving. He calmed down when told that she would be back at the end of the month for Sarah's blessing. When it was time for everyone to say good-bye, the kids gave her big hugs, but I was the crying mess! Ethan kept on telling me that she would be back, so don't be sad. But I still was.
We just want to send out a big thank-you for all that she did for us these past ten days. We're all looking forward to seeing her at the end of the month!

Her last day here, and it was 50 degrees and rainy. But she still came out and watched Ben's game. (Rachel's away game got cancelled)

hey dave and beth!
what an adorable family you have. i saw your link through libby and debbie's sites and thought i would say hello. last time we saw you, at debbies wedding in rochester i think, you only had one kid... you have been busy. hope you are doing well. congrats on your new little one.
I think they have fallen off the face of the earth - I know I saw them back in the beginning of July, but who knows - maybe they've escape to some exotic island and don't want to share with the rest of us - or have won the lottery.
