It's been awhile....

Well it's been almost 8 months since I posted on here and I'm getting tired of myspace blog so I'm coming back to BlogSpot. We've been very busy lately with all the moving process. We've almost go the whole house packed up and I'm just working on getting all the kids medical records and the rest of that fun junk to handle.

Well the kids had their surgeries a few weeks ago and are doing great. They both passed their hearing test and no fluid in the ears. I think removing Madison's enlarged adnoids was a good move, I think she is talking better and not so much through her nose anymore. Madison is getting so excited about going to Texas and starting "big girl school" as she calls it. We have orientation on August 20th and she'll get to meet her teacher and see her classroom.

My handsome boy

My little James is not so little anymore. He'll be 2 years old in just a few months! My the time has flown by, seems like yesterday he was just a little baby. He will begin daycare (for the first time) September 1st. I'm scared...not because I don't trust daycare, because Madison was in one when she was younger then he is. I am just sad more than anything. I've enjoyed being home with my kids so much. I know that this will be a good experience for him though and hopefully he enjoys it.


Well as for myself, I've been getting so stressed over all this moving. It stinks that my hubby has been in the field for 2 weeks now so it doesn't help me at all when he's not here to talk to about everything. My main stress is wanting to be home with my kids in the afternoon. I tried to get on at the schools in Texas, but of course like everywhere now - it's "who" you know, not "what" you know. So they have field all the positions with people already within the school district. So that left me with two other options....go back to the law firm, or look for a different job. Just as I was debating my options I got a few emails from the firm asking when I was coming back and how much they wanted me back. So now I believe that is the option I'm going to take. I recently sent them an email to ponder about a possible just 8-2 position so we will see. I want to be home for when she gets off the bus, but then part of me thinks I should just work the 8-5 for more money (to make up for daycare and gas expenses). So I think, man parents do this everyday....kids are always going to afterschool care. So right now I'm just trying to figure things out. Well anyways, felt good to get that off my chest (sucks when I can't talk to Avery).
