The house on Courtney Lane

4 months, 3 days
Sleep: enough...most of the time, maybe
Saturday, Savannah turned 4 months old. We went to John and Rosanne's house that night and had dinner and played guitar and sang and visited with everyone. We had a wonderful time, and Savannah was excited to see some new surroundings, I'm sure. Before that, we had gone to breakfast with Mom at Mimi's Cafe. That's always good. Then Sunday, we got up and went to work up a contract on a house we looked at on Friday...get this, the house is on Courtney Lane! (my name). Hopefully, it will all work out. It's a foreclosure, and the bank that owns it right now, counter offered, but we should be able to do everything. It's right down the street, literally, and right by an elementary school. It's great. Then after that, we went to Toby and Brenda's house and hung out, and then we went to Dr. Aldrich's (Rick's ex-professor) retirement party. Rick and I sang while all the girls seemed to pass Savannah around. Savannah got grumpy after a while. Orajel helped a little, and Dr. Aldrich gave her a cracker to chew on....which Savannah ended up eating it. Anyway, we got home and went to bed and then yesterday was just a normal day. I like those normal days, they're nice. She rolled over some more today, and I got it on the video camera so that Rick can see, because she hasn't done it since that first time. She did it like 5 times today on the bed, because on her tummy she couldn't see her mobile. I clapped and told her what a good job she'd done, so that hopefully she'll do it again...positive reinforcement. Mom's excited because she's almost done with summer school, which means she'll only have to work 32 hours a week in July writing curriculum, so she'll have most of Thursday and all weekend off. Which translates to more getting to see Savannah. Hmm, can't think of much else to write. More later.
