It's Been Awhile

Busy.

House-hunting.

Losing Weight (12.6lbs to date).

Chasing my two year old.

YES

Had my first weigh-in for weight watchers yesterday.... down 4.4lbs so far. WOO HOOOOOOO.

Just so y'all know, you'll probably find that I am on facebook much more than here so if you are interested in knowing what I am up to - send me a friend request. I am also on twitter for those of you who care.

Ta.

So Maybe I Should Post Something?

Or maybe not. I just can't see that too many people are all that interested in every detail of my life!

I am graduating (with honors by the way) with my B.A. in Accounting on Saturday. And no, Aunt Tammi is not going to be there - she has more important things to attend to ;) Love Ya Mean It!!

Patrick just turned two - his birthday was the 17th. He is getting so big y'all. Talking up a blue streak and all kinds of stuff!

I finally applied for my concealed carry permit - it should be here any day now. Had to make sure and get it before they are outlawed or something. Now I just gotta find a way to "carry". Anyway - not too much else going on. What are you up to?

Testing

I am posting this from my new iGoogle gadget. Hope it works!

In Case You Want To Know

Found a daycare yesterday - they are only $5/week more than what I am paying now. They are a small, family run place, all the kids there seemed very well behaved. They have heard of breath holding spells and know what they are and how to deal with them. They do lots of learning activities (ABC's, counting, days of the week, months of the year) and also cooking activities, pizza and pajama parties, and lots of art projects. They have a separate playground for each age group so the big kids can't harrass the little kids. It's closer to home so my husband can share in the drop off and pick up duties. All of the teachers there are very well educated (not just the mom's who have no job skills and need a place to work types). Oh yeah, they work on potty training with the 2 year old class too. They don't serve lunch like the place I am at now does, but that is a small price to pay for all the good things he is going to do and learn there.

I called the old place today and told them and they were very sad :(

I think Patrick will like this new place much better - he is going to start on May 11th

WOO HOO

So the daycare search is really a pain. I didn't realize how extremely cheap the place we're at now is until I started looking for a new place. Everywhere I've found is AT LEAST $100 more a month. I looked at one today that seems to be really good - it's pretty close to my job and to his doctor, they do lots of learning activities, and they have another kid there with breath holding spells so they aren't going to be retarded about it like where he's at. The only thing is meals are extra so I'll have to get used to packing him lunch everyday.

The job is going well. If I could just nail down this daycare thing so I don't have to spend an hour in car each way every day we'll be all set.

I found facebook - it's much more fun (and easier) than blogging - so you probably won't see me too much around here anymore. I'll still be reading all my fav's though ;)

Rest In Peace

To a good friend who has finally lost his long, hard, battle with cancer. Ray, we will miss you! I am praying for your family to find peace.

Love,
Carmen, Keith, and Patrick
