A Funny Feeling

On Sunday I was sitting at the lunch table eating away when Grace decided it was time to sit on my lap. She started to eat some grapes and cookies. All of a sudden my lap felt wet like I had urinated the wrong way. I was so taken aback at first and then it hit me Grace had peed through her diaper. After consulting with my neighbor that yes the spot was just on the front and not all the way through my legs to the back, I grabbed my shield and took her to the baby room for a changing. Of course her dress was spotless since she was sitting on me. I hurredly found Rustin eating and told him we'd meet him in the car. Needless to say we had afternoon service via the phone line. Grace's diaper usually lasts till after lunch, but I guess she had more drinks than usual.

Truckin' Around




Well... This is Rustin and his new truck. He loves his new job, and the pigs aren't as bad as he thought. (Thus far he has had no bad experiences either.) His major routes are to Storm Lake Iowa and Sioux Falls S. Dakota. Every three weeks he goes on a 2 day trip to Missouri. I am looking forward to an IL trip sometime. I am adjusting well to the new hours and quirks of the job. For some odd reason I thought he would be gone more than he is. Grace got to ride in the truck with him yesterday. She looked like she was having a blast.
Last weekend was the county fair. Grace and her friend Kylie went on all the 2 year old rides and had much fun. Once Grace found the horn on the cars, that's all we heard the rest of the ride. Grace Rustin and I went on the Ferris Wheel which I hadn't done in a long time. Grace didn't like it when the ride would stop so others could get on, so she tried climbing out of the cage once when we were at the top. Talk about being a nervous wreck. We enjoyed tasting all of the good fair food, and I personally am glad when it's over!
