Some stuff...

I have been MIA and miss coming by and posting regularly!

I'm officially on the job hunt now. I really wanted to be a stay at home mom for another year but with the economy the way it is, me staying home is not possible anymore. Hubby's hours got cut and our bills are starting to pile up so I have been sending out my resume and going on interviews. That first interview after two years of being out of the workforce was scary but I did well. Unfortunately the job was commission based and I really want a steady paycheck.

The kids have been keeping a smile on my face through these tough times. Jr. is talking more and more everyday. Today he said "come in" when someone knocked on the door! Julia did great on her report card last week. We just have to work on her memorizing her States! As for my littlest one, he is turning into Mr. Helpful. He puts things in the garbage, takes the dishes to the sink and tries to wash them and he even sweeps the floor. He even tried cooking the other day. I had some pork chops defrosting in the sink and he actually took them out of the package and placed each pork chop in an individual bowl and he was stabbing them with a spoon! I immediatlely washed his hands but also marveled at how observant he is. He really watches everything I do!

Hopefully I'll have good new to report on the job front soon and I will try to post as much as I can!
