Pumpkin Patch
This year we took Savannah to Goebbert's Pumpkin Patch. It couldn't have been a nicer day outside. There were pony and camel rides, and a haunted house. Frank and I enjoyed yummy hot apple cider and purchased an apple pie that was just delicious! Savannah enjoyed walking around with mommy and people watching.

Ten for Tuesday
1. I went in for my 5th chemo treatment. I met a girl named Margie who was beginning her chemo treatments and she was interested in meeting me. The nurse had told her about and apparently she is around the same age as I and has a five month old son. We have a similiar history. I was happy to be there for her even though I had to leave shortly after meeting her. I will get to see her again tomorrow. It's nice to have people around to help you get through this.
2. I'm starting to feel the side effects to the chemotherapy. I have been more faitgued and sore muscles. I'm a little nervous about how the next month will be on my body. Wish me luck!
3. Frank has been very busy at work and he recently did another job fair and has a bunch of potential clients/recruits. I hope this will result in some good payoffs. He recently became a branch manager in Rockford. He will be moving his office soon to help us save money.
4. I spent the whole day on Saturday running errands with a few friends. Afterwards we went back to her house and just visited with one another.
5. Frank wasn't feeling good and he stayed home from church. I still went with Savannah and really enjoyed the testimonies. I'm currently getting ready for the Primary program on Oct 25th.
6. We had dinner guests on Sunday evening and Frank cooked his famous spaghetti. We had a great time visiting and played a game of Pegs and Jokers.
7. I went to the dentist on Monday morning. I failed to call anyone to watch Savannah and had to find someone right away. I was lucky enough to find a babysitter last minute. I went and had my temporary crown fixed and than he repaired a seperate tooth that was missing a piece.
8. I managed to do some more scrapbooking and completed another 8 pages. I love saving memories. I also started a journal on the computer so I can eventually scrapbook all of Savannah's firsts.
9. I went to IKEA with my friend Jackie and we did a little shopping and than we went to eat at La Madgalena's. The food was delicious as usual. I'm going to miss my friend who is moving back to the Meridian/Eagle area in Idaho. I guess I will have to come back out for a visit in the near future.
10. Savannah is rolling around a lot now and was just found choking on a piece of paper. That was definately scary! I guess I better keep a closer eye on my baby. She was actually found scooting around on the floor on Saturday. She will be crawling any day now. She is having a hard time sleeping at night. I need to feed her more food at night.

Eleven on Tuesday
1. I went in for my 6th chemo treatment. I'm happy to report that I'm half way through my second round of treatments. I getting more and more excited every week. I can't wait until all this is over. I'm still not having any side effects.
2. I took Savannah in for her 4 month check up with doctor Rosewell. She told me that she grew an inch and gained another 3 pounds. She is currently 13 almost 14 pounds and 24 inches long. She is doing a good job playing with her toys. Savannah is doing well sitting up with assistance and holding her own neck. She is moving around a lot now and constantly flipping over. She tends to get a little fustrated on her belly and hasn't learned quite yet how to turn herself back over. She is officially 5 months old.
3. We switched weekends with Joy and we had the kids again this weekend.
4. Sarah was a little bummed she couldn't go over to the Baker's house for general conference and to visit with her friends. She was in trouble for getting a couple of bad grades in school. She doesn't seem to be liking High School this year.
5. Frank's car needed a brake job so I took the car over to a friends house to help us save on money. He replaced them as a favor to us. I was very appreciative for all of his hard work.
6. On the way home even though it was cold and rainy outside Sarah decided to roll the window down in Frank's car and the motor died so the window got stuck. I had to try to keep the baby warm and drive all the way back home. I was not happy about.
7. We had to keep the rain out of the car for a couple of days and hope that the car didn't get stolen. Frank had to take the door apart and disconnect the motor and manually pull thc e window back up. We will eventually have to replace the window motor.
8. Sarah and I went over to my friends house for her daughters 12th birthday party. We enjoyed some Asian food and had a good time.
9. We went over to Wendy's house to eat dinner and to watch Dance Flick. The movie was funny however very raunchy at times. I did however learn how to cook lemon chicken.
10. We watched general conference and really enjoyed all of the talks.
11. I went to the dentist and learned that I broke a piece off of my temporary crown. I have to go back next Monday to have it repaired. I also lost part of another tooth which needs a partial filling. I wondered why food kept getting stuck in between my gums. Ouch!!!
