Tunkhannock, PA....our new home
I just tried to send this, and the whole blog post I made got erased. So frustrating. Anyways, haven't posted forever. Alot has happened since we posted last. We have moved to Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania. A cute litte town in Northeastern, PA. We're only about 2 1/2 hours from NYC and Philly, but you would never know it. It is very rural. Keith got a job internally with P&G working at their paper plant in Mehooooopaney. Did I add a couple extra o's? It has a funny in the sticks name to it. They make Charm'in, Bounty, and Pampers there. He is really enjoying it. Very different than working at corporate. He enjoys learning more everyday, and the change of pace.
We live only five minutes from the plant. The kids go to Mehoopaney Elementary school, only a few minutes past the plant. So I love it because Keith often drives the kids to school if they miss the bus, we call it the blue batman bus. The kids love that bonding time with Dad, and of course I love it. Kayla is in first grade, and Luke in kindergarten. They are loving their teachers, and having lunch at school, and all that new stuff that comes with full day school.
Darren is enjoying afternoon preschool twice a week. Today he got so excited to tell me about his day as we were leaving he backed up into the school vacumn. He's so cute. Though he does miss napping those days. Today he told me on the way, "mom, I don't think I got enough sleep last night". He naps every other day, and lately falls asleep on the way home.
We are expecting again. Our little boy is due to arrive April 13th. So certainly he should most likely arrive in April sometime. Kayla groaned when she found out it was a boy, but the boys cheered. Luke made a Thanksgiving grateful turkey for school, and wrote he was grateful for his baby, and family. Kayla used to ask everyday if she could feel the baby kick. She has stopped for now, but it is hard to explain to kids a few months. We are all looking forward to it.
The kids loved Halloween, and they looked so cute in their costumes. Kayla was snow white, a beautiful costume made by her Grandma Busby for her birthday. She was delighted with the outfit. Luke was Jack Sparrow again, not that he gets old, Darren was Woody, a costume we got from Disneyworld in February, and have waited to debut it ever since. So cute! And Charlotte was Minnie Mouse for inside events, and a monkey for the actual trick-or-treating. She was putting up quite a fuss when I was trying to put it on her, and didn't want to wear it at all, but once I got it on her I couldn't get her to take it off. She would bring it to me everyday for that whole week. She wore it out every wear we went until the next Saturday. So funny.
We are loving our little Tunkhannock. It is beautiful here, we have a sweet little branch, and its different, but we are adjusting. We miss all of our friends in Cincinnati though. Hope you are all doing well. The Busbys

Congratulations on the baby on the way! I miss having you in our ward, even though it's been so long since you moved it still feels like yesterday. Love ya!
Great to hear the update. Why oh why am I so scared to get pregnant with #4 when you are already so far along with #5? You are so incredible to do all you do and do it all so well, with all your little ones in toe. You inspire me. And the costumes are PERFECT!!
Congrats, that's wonderful news! Glad to hear you're happy!
Congratulations my friend! You have a beautiful family and I know this next one will fall right in line. Darin's little personality cracks me up - even from 800 miles away! Brooks still talks about his "best friend Luke" but he seems a little more content with the situation since you don't live in Cincinnati anymore. Enjoy country life in PA. (Maybe I should just call you, I have a lot to say. Haha!) Love ya!
Tell Kayla that I'm having a girl, that ought to make her happy. If this baby had been a boy, my husband's sister and our niece would have staged a mutiny.
