Updates!

Kira went for her 2 month check up yesterday. She weighed 9 lbs. 2 ozs. (25th percentile) and was 23 1/2 in. long (75th percentile)! So, she is following right along in her brother's footsteps. The only difference is her head is right at the 50th percentile (NORMAL) and her brother's was at the 95th percentile! So, she's doing good. They want her to be gaining a little more weight, but she is doing great. The shots are not treating her so well today. She is very sleepy and pretty cranky and she's spitting up quite a bit more than usual.

Hunter is doing great. He's getting bigger and bigger every day. We are working on counting to 10 in Spanish and he is doing really well with it! We'll be starting on our colors and a few other words soon I'm sure. We have also discovered that he is a mosquito magnet! They love to eat him alive! So, the last couple of weeks have been rough with all his mosquito bites he has been getting.

Well are going to sign the loan paperwork tonight and we have the inspection set for Friday for our new house! I am super excited! I am going to take some pictures when I'm there Friday so I will post more soon!

I officially have my contract for Wellington and I am also looking at possibly coaching JV Volleyball this next year. We have not decided yet, and they are supposed to be getting me some more information about it soon! Shawn still loves his job and is working hard (I'm sure) every day!

PENDING!!!

Well, we have come to terms on our offer and we are signing the official contract offer on our house! Once it officially goes to pending, it will be taken off the website so I posted the pictures on here! It is a 3 bedroom/2 bath house. It has a family room, dining room, kitchen, mud room, living room, mater bedroom has it's OWN FULL BATH!!! YEAH!!! There is a 1 car attached garage and a 1 car detached garage off the alley with a covered porch connecting it to the house. The yard is fenced in so the kids can go out and play! YEAH! It is only 1 1/2 blocks from my school and across town for Shawn. We are set to close on July 25th and hopefully everything will go as planned and we will be moving on the 26th! :D Now, it's on to finding daycare and then I will be able to focus on my new job and start thinking about 2nd grade! YEAH! SO EXCITED (if you couldn't tell by the 45 million exclamation marks in this post)!!!

Wellington House!

Well, we have official found a house! We fell in LOVE with one in Wellington tonight and our realtor is writing up an offer as we speak! YEAH! I'm so excited and I hope everything works out with this one! Here is the link to it!

We love this house! It is everything we wanted (except for a basement) but it is perfect and in move in condition. These pictures do not even do the house justice, but they are just a taste! :D

Hopefully we will get the offer in tomorrow and get the ball rolling on it! It has only been on the market for 2 days and when we pulled up to the house, Hunter said "Hunter's house!" I am serious! It is that perfect! I hope to update tomorrow with more info!

:D

Housewife test

Go figure... I suck as a house wife. No cooking for me and I am definitely not a seamstress. And I'm not the cleanest person out there when it comes to my house. :)

37 As a 1930s wife, I am Poor Take the test!

I GOT A JOB!!!

Well, FINALLY...I get to post that I GOT A JOB!!! YEAH!!! :D I will be teaching 2nd grade in Wellington next Fall! It will not be official until the 12th when they take my contract to the board for approval. There shouldn't be any problems with it, but it's procedure! :D Just thought I would update everyone! Now, all that is left is to get a house and get moved in. We're getting close! I'm so excited! YEAH!

More Updates!

Well, it's been a while since I wrote on here. So, I thought I would do a short update.

I have had some interviews these past couple of weeks. I interviewed with Mulvane 2 weeks ago and still have not heard anything, so I am assuming that I did not get that position. I interviewed for a 5th grade position at Swaney in Derby last Friday and they said they would know by this Friday. I have an interview today for a 1st grade position at Pleasantview in Derby and an interview next week for a 2nd grade position in Wellington. So, that is the update on my job searching. I wish I could update with an actual position...hopefully that will happen SOON!

Shawn is loving his new job in Wellington. He is 1 of the 2 district technology guys so he works with the computers at all the schools in the district. He is enjoying learning the ropes and I think he'll be there for a few years at least!

Hunter went to the dr. for his 2 month appt. yesterday. He is 36 1/2 in tall (92nd percentile)
and he weighed 27 lbs. 10 ozs. (50th percentile). His head was in the 75th percentile and it has normally been at the 90th so that is an improvement!!! :D Dr. Stewart said he is doing EXTREMELY well. He does a lot of things that 3 and 4 year olds do, so he's ahead of the game! He's very smart and picks up on new things VERY quickly. He was very impressed that he knew his ABCs, counted to 12, and knew his shapes and colors. He said...and I quote "You can tell his mother is a teacher!" :D

Kira is doing GREAT! She was about 7 lbs. 14 ozs. with her clothes on yesterday. She was also about 21 in. long so she is growing very quickly (at least in her length). She is more alert and is smiling a lot and is happy all the time (unless she's hungry or has dirty pants...or her brother hurts her).

The house we like it still on the market...so hopefully it is still there when I get a job (if that ever happens!) We're looking forward to owning our own home! Scary and exciting...all at the same time! Tomorrow is our big move day. My grandma and great great aunt came up yesterday and helped pack ALL DAY! They pretty much have everything packed up. They are the greatest! Couldn't have done it without them. Tomorrow, we are all going up to load the moving truck and bring it back to my grandma's garage (AKA our storage unit) until we can get into a house. It's going to be a VERY long next couple of days.

Well, I think that is all for now. Hope everyone is doing well and I can't wait to update with a new job and a house soon (HOPEFULLY!)
