New Job

So my prayers have been answered. I recieved the call last Thursday that I had a job. They were excited about becoming apart of their team. I'm thrilled to be apart of such a wonderful school.

Gorzychi (said.GOR-RISKY) Middle School opened its doors in 2009.  They have a wonderful school, filled with wonderful teachers, and students. 

I went and signed my papers today to make it official.  It was a great feeling to feel wanted and excepted.  I honestly can't wait to start my new journey. I just hope they let me (AKA Kevin) move my boxes over soon!

GO TIGERS!!!

6 Months

I can't believe 6 months have flown by! Tristin you are still such a blessing to your father and I.  We love you very much.  You hated your shots today-but got to stay home with Mommy!!  I tried to help you forget about them. 

At 6 months

~You have 2 teeth
~You are starting to push up with your arms and tuck in your knees-and you rock to a belly flop

~You are squealing-LOUD
~You see your mommy and whine and reach out
~You LOVE your outdoor swing
~You can offically start eating yogurt (even though I've been giving you small bites here and there)
~You still LOVE food

Here are a few Easter pictures.....

Easter

What a wonderful holiday to celebrate! I'm so glad I got to spend it with family, and Tristin got to see his cousins. They are hilarious,and Trisin just loves watching them.  We sang-Denver, Averi and Maddie ALL love Taylor Swift so she was the artist of choice to sing..."She wears short skirts I wear (teachers-Maddie) T-shirts she's cheer captin and,,,"  They can sing the ENTIRE song!!  We laughed-Maddie is always quick to tell someone No or that its not right, while Averi is always mothering, and trying to get Maddie to see the right way-or the right in something-its tooo funny!!


The Easter Bunny made a stop by my moms house on Saturday and the kids enjoyed their hunt. Enjoy some photos...

We have Teeth

Wed. the 31st of March, we woke up to a pretty cheerful boy. The day before was rough and he was upset while at daycare. They called a little before noon on Wednesday asking if they could give him any orajel, and I agreed. I went on my lunch break to visit my lil guy, to find him tearful.  He was so sad, but so very glad to see his mommy.  I held him and rocked him-and nursed him to sleep.  When I picked him up that afternoon I no longer had my precious gummed boy, but a lil boy who was growing up-with a tooth!! I was nervous about it, but its cute.  Everything about him is cute-so why wouldn't this be?

This past Sat. as I was trying to show off our tooth spurt, we noticed the next tooth.  :)  How much fun food will soon be!!!

My Husband and Lil Man

Aren't they both just so wonderful?  I have to say I have a good looking family-two good looking boys!! :) These two guys are all a girl could ask for (until I get ready to try for a girl..haha). I have a lil boy who is wonderful (despite the fact that he's still congested and I took him in today to find out we need to being doing all sorts of treatments to get him better).  But to top it off, I have a husband who is great!  He gets me, and puts up with me, but most of all takes care of me.  I am spoiled-he will tell you that.  He helps me clean on his day off, he cooks for me 98% of the time (I cook the other 2%), he rubs my back, he helps me with Tristin, he doesn't mind helping with the laundry, he cleans up after himself (except for the clothes he takes off before workout or bed-he just lays them on the floor), and he loves me.  How did I ever get so lucky to have two great guys? He's my rock, someone that allows me to get frustrated with, cry on, and talk to and at the end of the day still care and love me. 

Lets face it-this year has been rough. A new job-having a wonderful addition-going through hormonal changes-not wanting to go back to work-Tristin ending up in the hospital-me finding out I don't have a job-not wanting to go back to work.  (No I don't want any cheese with my whine) But really stress central!! Kevin hasn't given up on me yet-he still tells me everyday he cares and loves me.  He's wonderful and I wouldn't trade him for the world.  I just hope he knows how much he is appreciated.  So honey-if you don't and you are reading this-hopefully you understand now. 

Keep your blessing in mind, and surround yourself in love-life always gets better-and God can see the bigger picture-just follow his guidence. 

Jobs

So it is a fact that I'm looking for yet again a NEW JOB.  Why does this seem to be a trend in my life lately?

Why is it that I feel so pressured to get a job?  Why can't I be like 1/3 of our country and not work or the other 2/3's who don't pay taxes? Why do they get the chance to sit at home, watch tv on their big screens and eat bon bons while I go to work and wish I was at home with my baby?  I realize we could live on Kevin's income-but that is just live.  If we wanted to make it work we'd have to move-which I'm not up for.  This puts us in a poor neighborhood and I want my kids to grow up in the best.  I guess thats why I'm looking for a job. 

I'd really like to work in a building like "The Office"....and also truely think I'm being filmed for a tv show.  That would make life interesting.  I have put in my resume to Hays and Austin county-but who knows since a million people apply to both daily.

I've also tossed up the idea of keeping babies at my house.  I would have to take out the dinning room and change it into a "playroom" but it might be worth it.  Perhaps I could keep 2 or 3 kids,along with Tristin and still be a sane adult. :)

What is it that I should do/be when I grow up?  Any suggestions would help-or if anyone knows of  a job in Austin, TX-let me know. I'm willing to learn-however I MUST have time with my lil boy :-)

5 months

I figured before I wrote one for 6 months I better update everyone on our fifth month first.

We are yet still amazed at everything that you do. You make us smile everyday and have brought me closer than I ever thought to your father-whom I love and adore very much.  (If only he'd let me stay home with you..haha).

This month....

..You are sitting up all by yourself and you LOVE it!!
..You still can't pull yourself up, but you try so very hard!!
..You now LOVE I mean LOVE taking baths.  Now that you can play around and sit up in the water your good to go.
..You love your yellow duckys that swim with you in the water.
..You don't mind that I put lotion on you.
..You HATE I repeat HATE when I put clothes on you.  You'd rather be free in your diaper. 
..You have offically started teething-and you pull on your gums so hard. It hurts me.
..When you see mommy or daddy after being gone you love to give kisses.  They are VERY WET, but you just love on us. 
..You still aren't sleeping through the night. You wake up around 12 for about 3 min, and then around 3 or 4. This usally means your going to end up sleeping in our bed (which I don't mind) so we can get some sleep. I'm praying its the teeth.
..You roll over and twist and turn in your crib at night. Rolling over usually wakes you up!
..You've outgrown your bouncer.-TOOO Heavy
..You are wearing 9-12 month clothes. 
..You are eating stage 2 foods-which you like SO much better.  I haven't fed you anything you haven't liked. (you even liked squash although it made you constipated-and mommy is afriad to try it again)
..You LOVE your puffs. You go nuts when you notice the yellow container.  It makes us laugh. 
..You like it when mommy shares her yogurt with you. :)

I just know I'm going to wake up in a few days (it will seem) and you'll be walking!!!  Hold up lil one!! Your daddy and I love you very much!
