Changes

Well alot of changes have been taking place in the Glover household! The biggest change is one that Derek has already mentioned- we bought a house!! We are not positive when we will close, but it looks like it is going to be sometime early next week! We both are so excited and nervous at the same time! The house couldn't suit us any better! I will try to put some pictures of the house as we make changes on it and get settled in!

Another big change lately has been Anna-Kate! She is walking and talking so much! We have been loving this phase she's going through! It is so wonderful to get the chance to see your child grow and experience the world around them. Anna-Kate's favorite words are: Dada, Nah (No), Dhyea (yeah), Dhthere (there) and Mama... although most of her words have the dh sound! :) She has also been using sign language to communicate with us! It's adorable! But one of my favorite things she is saying now is when you ask her what sound does the dog make and she says, "ah ah ah!" Anna-Kate has been saying dog for a long time, she even replaced dog with dixie for a little bit, but one day she just crawled over to Derek, pointed at a picture of a dog and went "ah ah ah!" Of course, cats are dogs too, and she follows our cat in Lepanto around saying dog- ah ah. Anna-Kate has really started walking in the last two weeks or so! I really noticed it this week when Derek and I took Anna-Kate to see his brother play football! Anna-Kate and Kristen both wanted to stand in the front of the bleachers and watch the cheerleaders!! They loved them! We really had to keep an eye on them because they wanted to walk all over the place and cheer with the cheerleaders! Now whenever you say "Go Wildcats!!" Anna-Kate will throw her arms straight up in the air! She's facinated by them and loves to clap along with the girls! Here are some pictures and a video or two of the girls at the game:

And here are the videos!

All in all things have been good here! We are trying to adjust to a new fall schedule with classes and all. It's always a little bit of a struggle but we are managing well! Derek and I know that this is going to be a great semester! We are looking forward to seeing more and more of Anna-Kate's personality and growing together as a family!
