It's Been Such a Long Time...........

I think I should start bloggin' again!

Quick update for all of us:

Bentley- will be 18months next month.  He's a chunker & learning to talk.  Favorite words right now: football, touchdown, clock, momma, dadda.

Myelle- will be 4 next week.  She's a little teenager sometimes. LOL  Her favorite things are helping around the house, being the mom to her dollies, and bossing Bentley around.  She says the funniest things sometimes.  Still to come are many Myelle quotes.

Erick-still working at Walgreen's as a Pharmacy Technician.  School plans are in the works for him next fall working towards being a "Certified Drug Dealer" AKA Pharmacist.  He's been doing some beautiful woodworking for his mom.  Pictures to come when it's all finished.

Me- I've been working FT at Sportsman's Warehouse all summer & now in 5 days I'll start classes at ISU again.  Pretty excited about that!!  I think I've finally figured out what I want to do. Now I just need to meet with my advisor to see if they'll let me do it.

That's us in a nutshell....more to come.

Things I Didn't Expect as a Mom

1. I am a human kleenex.

2. My kids would love baths so much I'd let them have one almost everyday to play.

3. How important having a doctor that is good with kids is.

4. Suckers can make anything better.

Settling In

Well folks we're all moved in to our new apartment. I have to say that we absolutely L.O.V.E. it!! Still haven't found my camera in the mess of things, but I will soon. I've gotten a lot unpacked already.

The kids are still adjusting, but rather quickly I might add. Myelle keeps telling me "I like our new apartment."

Tomorrow's the Day!

We'll be moving. Yay!! We're finishing up the packing today. (In fact I should be packing right now rather than blogging, but here I am.)

Thanks to Rachel H. for coming & helping me pack for so long yesterday! I wouldn't be this close to being ready without you.

Pics of our new apartment coming soon.

Giveaway at A Few Good Things

My friend Jessica is having a giveaway on her blog. Check it out & enter here. I'm a bit jealous of the craftiness. Good luck to you all, but secretly I hope I win. ;)

You Know You're a Band Geek...

When a great song comes on & instead of singing along with the words you sing the part you played in your marching band show. :D

Blaring trumpet solo to ensue. Wah wah wah wah.......

6 Days & Counting

Only six more days until we move. I'll be packing like crazy this week. We sign our lease on Wednesday & can start moving in. I'm going to move a few boxes before, but the big move is on Saturday. I want to thank in advance all the family & friends that are helping us move. You guys are the best!
