Whew!!

Okay, we are IN the new house and we LOVE it!!!! There is a ton to do, but its a life long process. We love our new neighbors too, they are so awesome...and what a stark difference from our Erie neighbor...lol...those of you who were privy to her.

Abby still doesn't walk or crawl, but she has mastered scooting and can do the entire staircase. Will she EVER walk?!?!? Meanwhile she's cutting about a million teeth at once, so we have fevers, fussiness and vomiting....ohhh so fun. Poor girl.

Emma has started pre-school. We are doing a preschool coop and its working out really well here so far. I teach in 2 weeks. Its twice a week 9am-11am and of course we rotate. BTW, Emma LOVES this....even more than I thought....it was a really great decision for her.

Hailey is um....'liking' school....truth is, she got the crappy Kindergarten teacher. Man is she abrasive...she has no business being a K teacher. Not a drop of warmth to her. Its sad. You all know how much Hailey loves school...but she doesn't light up about it like she did all last year. She doesn't talk about her teacher, or really...anything. Makes a Mom sad. I guess its life, but shes 5 for heavens sakes. From what I can tell she isn't working with the teacher very well either...go figure... I wouldn't either. I got some homework thing and the teacher said she didn't know most of her alphabet...um EXCUSE ME??!?! If she tried being nice she might get a lot more than her K class teaches. Hailey knows her alphabet inside and out....shes even starting to read...like really read not recognizing words reading. i went over the whole page with her, every which way in fact, she knows....i have to try and figure out why she isn't performing that way for her teacher. any suggestions?

Paul is doing well, he like his job and we are all getting used to his "schedule". He likes the area and the situations.

Me? Well, I'm still unemployed...maybe next month I'll drag out the ol' resume and update it. I miss working....a lot. But things need to be settled here at the house first. Meanwhile, its fun to make a home...I've never really done that.

We get the Bravada back on Sunday, which is great....it will be a brand new old car...lol. The Pilot is great too. We got internet, dish and phone starts tomorrow. Those of you who would like our new phone #, email me.

Oh yeah, Roxy...Roxy is good. She loves the new house too. She likes the deck cause she can see and she loves the low windows for the same reason. She might miss a lawn to do her business, but a dust bowl it will be til the spring.....lol....

Anyhow....hoping all is well...we are all exhausted trying to put it all together.

see ya...oh yeah, pics will come as soon as we get the office up and running. right now we just have pauls laptop...on a box...lol...literally....

While it is still early in the year, any chance of getting her transferred into the other kindergarten class. It would not be good for her to start out her education with a teacher like this.

any chance of getting her into the other kindergarten class. Hate to see her start her school education out this way.
