Same Old Thing

So I am offically done being a Nanny as of January. I was offered a full-time spot at Little Gym and decided that was the right step for me to take at this time. I am actually very excited about it. I will be in charge of making the parent-child lesson plans and I will be teaching more classes. I am hoping this is going to be a job that I will continue to love and eventually get the chance at a Managment spot.

James and I are heading to Kansas here in about 4 weeks for Thanksgiving. I am so excited to see his family again. They are definently the ones I get along with best. I am also excited to see Joshua again. Its only been 6 months but still. I am hoping one day he will be living here in Texas with us so we can see him everyday.

The new puppy Jersey is getting along great with Lizzie now. They play together all the time. I knew it wouldn't take her long to adust. Lizzie always seemed like she needed a playmate. NOw if Jersey would just stop chewing on things that she isn't supposed to be we would be in business.

Well I think that is all for the update. I know boring but I hardly have time to do anything now that I am taking on more hours at Little Gym and still Nannying. Maybe in January when things slow down a bit I will actually have more interesting things to write about.

Hope everyone is doing good and has a great Halloween. Pictures coming from the Little Gym Halloween Party as well as some of Brayden.

Babies

So why is that as soon as you say I Do everyone starts asking "When are you going to have a baby?" Since when is it that it has to be rushed. I mean I know alot of people that want to have kids like ASAP after getting married, but is it so wrong to want to wait a year or so. Don't get my wrong James and I aren't going to wait forever, but I feel like I am asked all the time. Now maybe that has something to do with the line of work I do. James and I have talked about kids alot and we know what time works best for us. I feel like these days it is almost like a contest to see who can have kids first. I love kids and I can't wait to have my own, but at the same time I like being able to do whatever I want whenever I want and not have kids to worry about.  Maybe I am an just a little old school, but I enjoy the life without kids, but I know it is amazing once you start adding them to your family. James and I want to start trying to have kids next year and we will be married a year next April. I think that is enough time to have enjoyed the married life and adding kids to it is more stressful but is also so amazing. I mean James and I have already named our kids even though they dont exist yet. Well I just wanted to vent about it. Actually I wouldn't say vent because its not a bad thing, its just a question that both James and I get alot and it gets rather annoying sometimes. Dont worry I will let everyone know as soon as we actually are expecting.

Life Hasn't Changed Much

So I haven't written in awhile so I thought I would update. Nothing much is really going on with us. I am still working at Little Gym and Nanny and so far it is all going good. James is doing good at work. He hasn't been working much overtime which is nice.

. We adopted a puppy that we named Jersey/Our neighbors found her out in the country about a week ago and we were trying to find her a home and didn't really have much luck so we decided to keep her ourselves. We took her to the vet and got her first round of shots and made sure she was healthy, which she was minus some worms which we are treating with some medicine. The vet said she seems to be about 10-12 weeks old and mixed with German Shepard, Chow, Lab and some other dog. She is going to be about 50lbs full grow, which isn't much more then Lizzie. Lizzie and Jersey are getting along more and more everyday which is good. Lizzie is starting to share her toys, even though we got Jersey a few of her own. I think she is going to make a good addition to our family. NO MORE ANIMALS UNTIL THE ONES WE HAVE PASS AWAY.

James and I rescheduled our Kansas trip and I am very exicited to go up there. I miss his family there. I love them and enjoy spending time with them. We are going November 25-29. So we are leaving the day after my birthday and will be up there for Thanksgiving. this will be the 1st year I haven't spent Thanksgiving with my family, but it will be nice to have a change this time and enjoy a few days of not working.

Vicki's wedding is fast approaching and I just ordered my dress this week. I am very excited to go up there for her and Adam's big day. Now if I can just find cheap airfare and hotels for us and my parents we will be in business. I have a feeling this trip is going to cost a lot of money, but it is all for a good cause. I am hoping we can all fly up together, but it looks like I will be going up a day early for Vicki's bachelorette party and then James and my parents will be flying up the following day to stay for the wedding. That is also a much needed vacation that I am looking forward to. Their wedding should be quite interesting and elegant. I dont know much details, but just knowing Adam and how he wants things to be different form normal weddings so it should make for a fun but different in a good way wedding.

Well I will post again later once I find something new to blog about. I know I am aweful at keeping up with this thing but not very much happens in our life at the moment. Once we get pregnant and have kids I will have something to blog about on a normal basis.

Hope everyone is doing well and is staying healthy with all this SWINE FLU craziness that is going on. We have had 2 kids at Little Gym come down with it, but they are doing good now. A little close to home for me. None of the staff has gotten sick yet and I am hoping it stays that way.
