November was another month of uncertainty for us. David had his last Physician Assistant school interview with Pacific University in Oregon. He was super excited since he got to stay with his cousin Leslie and her family whom he hadn't seen since his early teenage years. He said Oregon was super rainy the whole time he was there. We were excited at the possibility of moving to Oregon and searched the internet for some possibly rental homes in the area (just to look at prices for the area). We both had good feelings about the school as well as the interview and were so disappointed when the letter came that David was number 80+ on the waitlist. David took the news especially hard and that is when I diligently began thinking of other career possibilities for us. The thought to do nursing school came and immediately David jumped on plans to start looking into a few private schools that would allow him jump into a program quickly (without having to wait the normal few years). It was hard knowing that David tried three years to get into PA school with no positive results....but looking back, I believe the Lord wanted us to go a different direction in the medical field. The experiences with trying to get into PA school and getting a job as a CNA would come in handy later.
Our sweet little Adelyn turned 9.5 weeks old during the first week of November. Having two kids was exhausting and such hard work. I felt like I was aging quickly and in fact I was....I discovered my first gray hair on November 16! :)
Because of Adelyn, we scored a 10$ gift card to Toys' R' Us. The clothes were so expensive but I did find some adorable tights that were just perfect and well needed with the cool Fall weather coming in. As usual, we set up our Christmas tree early on in the month of November.
Adelyn so cute and tiny!

Our family also got to run the turkey trot together for the first time in a few years. Usually David is working that day.
