Shame on me for not keeping up with my postings.... I started my three month teaching position at Pennsauken and it is lots of work. I do enjoy it and most of the students. We had a great Halloween at Aunt Cheryl's place in Hershey. Her dog took over the job of Gio's guardian. Steve and I have been reading his signs and plopping him on the toilet when he has to do some nasty business. He likes it, I guess that means we won't have trouble when it comes down to the wire. Gio is not crawling yet but rolling everywhere and talking up a storm, Daddda and YeahYeahYeah. This afternoon Aunt Suzanne will watch him for a few hours so Steve and I can go see New Moon. Go Team Edward!

I've had the pleasure to watch Connor the last few saturday mornings while Suz and Sean are out. This day I took him down to the swings and let him fly! Steve and I took Gio to Duffields for his first hayride and cornmaze. He's still a bit young for Creamy Acres but that will come up all too fast!!

I have yet ANOTHER interview scheduled for next wednesday. I don't want to get my hopes up because I have been on so many the past few months but my mother in law had a premonition that this is the one for me. I hope she's right because I'm ready to rock and roll already!!! Here's a great shot of Gio with his Uncle John. Can you tell he's saying "Get me away from this crazy dude!!"

We have been enjoying the pool in between the rainy days. Gio had his first pony ride courtesy of Clementine and Nana. Gram & Bubba came down to see the Salem County fair and Gio and I tagged along. Sure enough, my Dad grabbed him and didn't give him back until Gio was hungary. I'm glad he's enjoying him as much as I am!

We had a wonderful weekend up in Manasquan with Suzanne, Connor, Sean, myself and Gio. Steve couldn't make it because of work but we took lots of great pictures to send him. The first night we visited Grandpa Bill and Dee-Dee then went back to Candice's (they call her CeeCe) house. We ate mango pork chops and grilled corn on the cob we brought from Duffield's. The next day Suz and I walked the boys down to the beach. When Gio and I returned home, Dada was waiting with Gio's first dinner, Gerber carrots. That little piglet ate the entire container then washed it down with 5 ounces of Mamma's milk. No wonder he's 13lbs! On the job tip, I have had three interviews since June and one more next week. Hopefully one of these is meant for me, keep happy thoughts!!

I must say... As much as I dislike having to leave my boy to go to work, I love that the one's I leave him with take wonderful care of him and show him the best times I can't wait for him to remember. Thank you Nana and Dooda!

We had a wonderful afternoon by the pool, Suz, Nana, and myself. I wish there could be more days such as this, but I'll treasure each one (though they may be few between) as if they are the best of days.
