Been a LONG time

It has been such a long time since i have written on here! I get so busy with life and everything else that I just have forgotten to get on... so there is a lot to write on. BUT here we go...

Steve just recently applied for a job for the Idaho Falls Police Department. He placed #11 out of the 45 people that applied and tested! WOOHOO... he did so good! they will be looking at the top ten to come back for more testing with the department in October. SO we are really hoping that a few of the people already have a job or are not interested anymore so that we can move to Idaho Falls or somewhere nearby. We love Idaho In general because the homes are so cheap and because our favoritest cousins live here!!!! LOL. So we will let you know how that testing goes. We should find out within the next month or so.

KaraLynn Just turned 3 and she is such a character!!! she is so full of energy sometimes i don't know what to do with it! She needs to pass some on to me to get through the day better. She loves helping out with her new sister... and sometimes helps a little bit too much when she wakes her up and says that she slept good... UGH annoying~ She also tries to give her a bottle which ends up all over Brynlees' face... what a mess. But non the less she is an awesome big sister and other than her constant nagging she is such a fun little girl. She is full of laughter and surprises!

Brynlee is now 9 Months old! crzy that i have not written on here since i was 7 months pregnant! Brynlee is definitely nothing like kara, she loves her pacifier and is a big whinner@! She likes to have the attention. She STILL does not sleep through the night. don't know what is up with that. karaLynn was sleeping through the night from the time we brought her home form the hospital... So needles to say I am pretty frustrated about being up several times during the night to feed her and put her back to sleep. so in turn I do not sleep hardly at all so luckily both girls are on a nap schedule for noon every day. so that is my time to be able to nap with them and regain my energy. Brynn is also my bigger child. She is such a chunk and it's so stinkin' cute! she has the cutest smile and always has soemthing to laugh about.

NOW me... I am just busy busy busy taking care of the girls. We have not been living in our house in eagle mountain since December of 2008. we are currently renting it out tot he floyd family and they are awesome renters. they take really good care of the house and have made a lot of improvements to the house. Earlier this year they helped us put in our fence. So that was really nice. Now when we move back we will have a house with a fenced in backyard. A LOT more privacy which i like. I hated having the neighbors walk through our yard! They also installed blinds throughout the house and painted rooms a lot of fun colors and designs. She did a lot of really neat yard work. They put in stone walkways to the side yeard and out in ground cover around the stones, so it looks really cool. And they will be leaving lot of the yard deco. for us because they have so much they don't know what to do with it all. So im really excited about that. I am still not working... Still a stay at home mom. It has it's up's and down's. I lve being able to be home and take care of my girls the way I want, I do not like the thought of leaving my kids with someone else and having them be raised their way. I love being able to experience all the little things that happen even when it is the frustrating things. Cause for some reason I look back at those times and really treasure them and try to appreciate everything even though sometimes, well a lot of times it is hard.... I just recently started watching my sisters 2 girls while they work. It is only 2 or 3 times a week and I get 30 a day. so it is more money than I had before. and I get to keep the girls with me for this so more time with them and the girls get to play with their cousins. Win Win situation the way I see it. I also just got an interview at the Developmental Center which is Tuesday the 8th. It ways $10 an hour which is more than any job i have been able to find. So im hoping that it works out and that i wont have to leave my girls with anyone for too long. We could really use the money so we shall see.

Pretty much that is all that has happened since i last wrote. not all too exciting, but it's life. I promise i wont take so long next time to write on the little things happeneing. I want to be able to look back and say OH i remember that happening! so i will be better!
