The Plunk Family

Playing by himself in his room today. Look how he's sitting. He's growing up so fast!


This is right outside the entrance to our apartment complex.


On the way to the mall.

We went to an outlet mall about 30 minutes north of here and bought Jonah some clothes for this winter and next summer (they have a Carters and OshKosh outlet too!). He also got a new pair of shoes because his feet have grown so fast! We bought a size bigger than what we thought he needed now so that they'll last a while. It is a huge place with tons of stores and now I know never to go on a weekend. It was so packed that I didn't get my deliciously bad for me pretzel I had been looking forward to all week because the line was out the door of the store! I did get a few things for myself at the Gap. And Matt got a new pair of pants. (He was thrilled).
Matt did his first admission on his own as a doctor today. He is doing an orthopedic surgery rotation right now. The other day he hammered the pins in for a hip replacement. I'm getting used to the idea (although still not liking it) that his schedule isn't always going to be predictable and convenient for our family. He has called home a couple of times to let me know that he'll be late so I go ahead and feed Jonah and get him ready for bed. Tonight he made it home before Jonah went to bed though. I think seeing Matt walk through the door is the best part of Jonah's day. He gets so excited and squeals and wants to go to him. Matt coming home is one of the best parts of my day too. (And for the dogs too!)
