Happy Easter

Life had been crazy & good.

It feels like forever since I have had enough time to even think lately.  We have been busy working opposite shifts, carting Eve to soccer practice, games, CCD classes, and a bunch of playdates.  We are also in the slow process of getting ready to move but like I said it is going SLOW.
We took both kids to the Dr. on Friday and Eve was 33lbs and 40.5 inches and Milo was 19 lbs. 30.5 inches.  I can't believe how big they are getting.  Milo is already wearing 24 month clothes and has 5 teeth.  Eve has been getting so smart and writing lots of words and is just full of questions. 

I really couldn't be happier at the moment unless I could quit my job (which is the only thing causing me true stress right now.) and spending more time with Adam.  Absence truly does make the heart grow fonder because goodness gracious do I miss him like crazy.  My weekends can't come fast enough and stay long enough to spend quality time with him.

It's been awhile.

I don't know why I haven't been posting.  Life has just been busy.  Adam switched to working nights which is nice because it he gets more money for working nights but it sucks because pretty much only see him on the weekends.  I miss him like crazy but know for right now this is what we need to do.  He had an interview this week to change the job from a temporary position to a permanent job.   

Adam sent me on  scavenger hunt for my birthday gift even though my birthday isn't until the end of this month.  He got me a new computer and I love it.  He had to give it to me early because he had 30 days to return it if I didn't like it.  I love it and it is not going anywhere.

Both Eve and Milo have a sinus infection and an ear infection.  We kept Eve out of school all week and she still sounds kind of crappy.  Milo is on the mend.  My children are so different.  Eve is constantly asking for more medicine I have never seen a kid who loves medicine even the kinds that don't taste good.  Milo freaks out every time I pull out the dropper.  They are on the exact same medicine and their reactions are so different.

We started cloth diapering Milo.  Adam was really opposed but I said I didn't care and was going to get some anyway.  I found a program where I could return them within 30 days if I wasn't happy so I figured I could try it and if I didn't like it I could get my money back.  Adam is now officially on board.  Now I just need to get my mom on board and we will be good to go with getting rid of disposables for good.  I will probably make a separate post about it at a later time if anyone is interested. 

 Eve was supposed to have her first soccer game this week but they had to cancel because the fields have been so wet since we have had a ton of rain.  As long as it doesn't keep raining she will have her first practice on Tuesday and then her first game next Saturday.  We are all so excited.

I started an after school tutoring program for the 9th graders at our school.  I had 75 9th graders volunteer to come for an hour after school twice a week.  I am so excited about it but since I have to track all the students it has meant more paper work for me so I have been extra busy at work with it.

So pretty much we have just been busy and by the time I get on the computer each night I am exhausted and can't put a coherent thought together.  We are starting to get a routine down so hopefully life gets a little less hectic.

Blogger Issues & New Years

I have been having issues with my blog formating since Christmas so that is why it is taking me forever to post anything because honestly I started the Christmas post probably 15 times before I posted it and it still didn't turn out how I wanted.  I am not sure what the dealio is but whatever. 

 

New Years Resolutions:

• Lose 30 pounds
• Work less and play more
• Save money for a real vacation

Christmas Card Photos

Here is a preview of some of the great shots we got of the kiddos in our attempt to get a shot for the Christmas card. Yes we currently have 2 trees up. We have a 3rd one too but no where to put it but there will soon be a 4 foot pink tree since I know a little girl who wants one.
