Job, Cell phones, Insurance...

It amazes me how much a baby can grow in a month. Amy is a very active baby to say the least. She is always on the move. That's why she is so skinny : ). She started to stand on her own a few weeks ago and now she can stand for a few minutes while playing with a toy. It's incredible! She also got her first two teeth (finally). She is learning how to high five and wave. She likes to high five more but she is getting better at both. She is just a cutie-pie. 

Chris started his job at WTHI (Channel 10) 2 weeks ago. He loves it. A few days after he started they mentioned his name during the news. Yes, I'm very proud of him! He edits the morning and midday show and goes out to get some footage when needed. He goes to bed around 7 pm and gets up at 2 am. He used to go to bed at 2 am, so it is a huge change but he is doing good! 

We love to attend Bible Community Church. It's such a kind, friendly fellowship of Christians. I'm amazed how mission oriented they are. They have about 120 people attending church on Sundays and they support 9 missionaries and 2 mission organizations on a monthly basis. They give so much, I am humbled. Also, they are very encouraging and making you feel at home. There are a couple of people whom I love dearly. They are always there to help and we've been invited so many times to their homes or just to hang out! We are really honored to be part of that church.

I started to drive a few weeks ago and so far no one got hurt : ). I "met" a deer twice in 2 days. This one night, when I was driving in dark for the first time, a car was on the road in my lane in front of a house. When we got behind him he still didn't move, so I thought maybe he is waiting for someone, and I passed him. Well, after I got back into my lane Chris and I had the following conversation:
Chris: Did you see?
Me: What?
Chris: The deer.
Me: No honey, I'm looking at the road.
Chris: It was on the road. Sitting right in front of the other car.
: ) I'm very thankful I didn't hit it as I was going back to my lane. It definitely made me be more aware : ). The next morning a deer ran out on the road and stopped before me and turned back and ran into the woods. It was a wise decision of hers. : )

Life in the States is definitely different than life in Hungary. Things just "don't make sense" sometimes. Not in a bad way at all. Actually in a good way. I'm amazed how well this system works. I wish this kind of "honor system" would work in Hungary. There are so many strange things here, that I actually made a list and going to make a blog post in Hungarian (for the Hungarians) about it.

Have a blessed day!
