Last time I posted it was about having a first grader and a freshman. Wow it's been a while. My kids are now going into 2nd and 10th grade. I can't believe how the time is flying. We're still in our apt which will be our home for at least another year. I hate apartment living but it serves a good purpose for us so I guess we'll just have to suck it up and deal with it a little longer.
My son waffles on whether he likes school or not. He HATES to get up on school days, his alarm goes off just before 7. On his days off however he is up by 7 bright eyed and ready to go! Funny how that works. I think over all he likes school, he just doesn't like how much of his day it eats up! He's doing really well so I'm a happy mom.
My daughter has done extremely well in the transition to H.S. She got nearly straight A's and has a new best friend. She is taking all honors classes this year and managed to be chosen to be apart of the Art Academy. I'm so proud of her.
My husband got that promotion he was after. It worked out really well for us. He gets to stay where he is until they open a new store where he wants to go. Keeps my kids in the same school a little longer and eliminates one move for us. I couldn't be happier.
As for me, well I'm doing the same ole thing. Still a stay at home mom though I'm feeling a little less needed around here. With both kids in school my days are a little emptier than they used to be. Some days I think I want to get a part time job to bring in some extra money and other days I can't even entertain the idea of upsetting our routine. It's nice to be off when my husband is off and be free whenever anyone needs me for meetings, to deliver keys, or to pick them up when they are sick. I'm not sure what will happen on that front. We'll see how I feel when the kids are back in school.
My honey and I are still very much in love. I can't imagine my world without him. Next month we'll celebrate 17 years of marriage. I've been with this man for nearly half of my life!
So that's us in a nutshell right now.
Thanks for swinging by to see me!

You are doing the right thing by staying home and being on call for your family. My daughter keeps going back to work and then regrets it. Can't wait to hear all the great things that are in store for you this year. Hope part of that will involve moving to Oklahoma!
