This week Stephanie had Veteran's Day off from work. Veterans Day was on Tuesday and that is the reason that you didn't receive any mail, although I bet you did go to the mail box. Stephanie enjoyed her bank holiday as she ran some errands and got a facial. This is Stephanie's second bank holiday since she started at the bank at the end of September. I'll admit it, I'm a bit jealous!
This week Kai cut tooth # 5 and tooth #6. Tooth #7 is just about ready to pop through as well. These teeth have definitely made for some interesting nights of "sleep". I have heard that exhausted parents of teething babies may not keep a close enough eye on their incredibly mobile children and those children discover that they can fit in to the dog's kennel and that her chew toys are a lot of fun. Sure glad that hasn't happened to us!
Kai had a play date with "Master P" this week and I believe that he is to have one of Thursday this week.
The Indiana Lesnets spent a lot of time in the kitchen this week. We cooked 24 pounds of turkey breast (3 different 8 pounders) and 15 pounds of ground beef. With all of the meat we made 4 pans of lasagna, 120 stuffed shells, 4 french toast casseroles, 3 corn casseroles, 4 cheesy potatoes, 4 ham and potatoes, 4 turkey spaghetti casseroles, 6 turkey pot pies, 4 Mexican casseroles, 24 pizza burgers, 4 bags of Mexican meat filling for tacos, 3 Cherokee turkey dishes, and 5 meals worth of spaghetti sauce. Our little chest freezer is filled to capacity but we don't think that we should need to cook again for 3 or 4 months. Stephanie and I are pretty tired from all of this cooking (and lack of sleep from teething baby) but we are sure glad to have it done!
This week Stephanie is in Washington DC for a conference for work and then some continuing education for her CPA designation. That means that the boys are home alone for a whole week! Please pray that everything goes very well for the Lesnet men while mom's away and that mom doesn't miss her awesome boys too much while she's gone.
In some depressing news, we may be in the market for a new washing machine. Ours started smoking a bit this weekend. I pulled it out and learned that Whirlpool doesn't want Joe Q. Public messing with the innards or their washing machines. There is something like 20 screws and a solid back plate covering everything up. We did another load of clothes yesterday and it worked pretty well. Maybe I'll take the back off and check it out while Stephanie's in DC.
Here is a video of Kai walking around upstairs here on his 10 month birthday. He is just all over the place and its pretty remarkable for a kid his age. He wasn't being as cooperative last week during our filming but I was able to score some good footage tonight!
For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God - Colossians 1:9-10
