Waiting

Well, Steve has received some more interview offers:

Loma Linda University Program, Loma Linda, CA

and University of Texas Southwestern Medical School Program, Dallas, TX

(yes, that is TWO programs in Dallas on the list now..... twice the chance that we will end up close to you guys, Julie and Justin ;) ;) )

He has interviews scheduled from now until Christmas, pretty much. So, needless to say, he will be doing a lot of traveling. Right now, he is in Phoenix doing his rotation there all month and will interview while he is there.

Robby and I have survived a whole week without Daddy here. Robby has handled it very well! I have actually been surprised. Every day he usually just reminds me at least once that "Daddy flew on a airplane. He's in Arizona, Mommy." But, he has been happy and we have enjoyed our time together thus far. 

We have tried to stay busy and do some fun things to keep us distracted. It helped a lot that the weather pretty much returned to SUMMER this week. We have been in the 80s which has been awesome!

Here are some highlights from the week:

Peanuts and Fries from Five Guys:

Mommy learning to crochet:

...and Robby wanting to try it out too!



I made this hat for "baby sister".....



...then Robby insisted I needed to make him a brown hat too!



Picking apples at Johnston's Fruit Farms:



Enjoying the fruits of his labor...



Perhaps we went overboard...

 

Fun times at the park:

 We love our zoo!:

Fun with friends:

 

Baking with apples:

I have been making different apple recipes almost every day in attempts to use our apples. It has been a tasty week!

And of course Robby is a great "helper"...

 

So, one week down, three to go!

Hopefully Robby continues to be happy and do well. Even though he isn't acting out due to it, I do know he definitely notices Daddy is gone and misses him.

Robby put his tie on this bear last night, then brought him out back and said the bear was going to church. Then he left the bear on the steps and said "He is waiting for daddy"...

...and he is still sitting there... waiting...
