Crazy how I go through these kicks where I get on this blog and think to myself , "self, start doing this more often." then I sign off and wait forever to get back on. It's funny because most of the time I try to sign on my blogspot I have forgotten the password and have to go look it up or better yet have it reset.
Anyway! not much new here in this crazy house and yes, I mean crazy house! I am still looking for work. Pretty soon I am thinking I may have to change paths altogether as i am just not having any luck. In the meantime, I will continue to do the most rewarding job ever and just be a mommy. Personally, I think it is what I am best at anyway. I mean, look at my kids. they do say we are products of our own environment and we learn by example and all of that good stuff and if you ask me...they are pretty good kids. (Smart and Pretty too!!) Just look at them!!
Hmm....who to start with today......How about Kara and her 5th grade year thus far. I myself hated 5th grade. Actually as awkward of a kid I was I really didn't like school at all until I reached about 11th grade. then I started to enjoy it, but I really hated 5th grade for whatever reason. Kara is doing great. So far I think she is really close to having straight A's for this quarter if she doesn't already. She has decided to stay in gymnastics which is a good move for her I think seeing as she is my little contortionist. She is as flexible as a rubber band.
Bailey is growing. Her vocabulary has expanded by about 5 thousand words in the past month. I don't think there is anything she cannot say. Yes, this means we all have to be really careful now.....We have started potty training. At first she wasn't really thrilled about the whole idea, but she is slowly coming around. I kind of backed off the pressure and let her call the shots. Some days she will insist to walk around butt naked (the days we stay home) and others to wear panties and others still to be in a diaper all day long. poor girl, the days she wears diapers she wets, then tells me she has to go. This makes for extra laundry, but oh well. After she wets she has to go sit on the 'potty' where she likes to remain for 15-20 minutes or say and I better not dare try to leave the bathroom and do something productive. Oh and did i mention how LOUD she is? If anyone ever thought Kara was a loud child and her voice carries, just wait. I think from constantly having to speak over Hannah and/or Kara all of the time to be heard she speaks very loudly. I am consistently saying "speak quietly Bailey" She just says "O-Tay" and keeps on going.
Hannah has adjusted to public school and high school pretty well. She is doing really good with her grades and seems to enjoy everyday. At least she has enough stories to tell to make one believe she is having fun. She tried out for basketball cheerleading (did i already tell this story?) and did not make it. Not to fret, she was not too distraught over it as once she went to tryouts she realized that basketball is more dance then stunts and she prefers that style of cheerleading. I think the plan now is to tryout for football cheerleading come springtime. She is in Chorus and loves it by the way and has even decided to take it again next semester. (YAY!!)
Well, that's about it for those who find our lives interesting enough to read a blog about it........not much to it ha?
