Well I did not realize that I have not updated this in almost a month.....lots going on here. I finally got a job here at a law firm in town. The hours are great, boss is great and it is loads of fun. He specializes in bankruptcy, immigration (both federal law so it will be the same no matter where we go), probate/estate and state appointed criminal defense. So I have a wide array of things to learn. I really like it and actually look forward to going to work everyday - such a change from my last job.

The kids are doing good....starting school on Wed 8/12. Vanna will be in kindergarden...her teacher's name is Mrs. Roach (hopefully vanna does not ask her why she is named after a bug). Tyler should be starting football this coming week. That should be interesting for him since he has never played tackle fball before, only flag. Vanna is on a waiting list for a gymnastics coach here in town. She cant go on post anymore because at her physical last week the dr. detected a heart murmur so she has to go see a pediatric cardiologist to make sure it is nothing serious. Until that is done, which takes forever to get a referral, she can't play sports on post. Not like it matters anyway because all the classes for her age group are at the times she is in school because off post school hrs are different.

Baby boy is doing good...kicking all the time. I go to the doctor next week for my lovely glucose testing and then in September we get a 4D ultrasound...I am really excited about that. This weekend the old man and I are going to go baby shopping and probably do a layaway so I don't have to blow my first check already :) I think we are gonna do some birthday shopping too for the kids. I am a big fan of layaway. I used to be the type of person who had all the xmas/bday shopping done by September thanks to Walmart layaway and by thanksgiving everything was wrappped and ready to go. Well since Walmart has done away with layaway I have fallen behind schedule every year. So the post exchange does layaway and so does KMart so I guess I will try again this year since so much is going on around the holidays. I am not a big fan of KMart cuz I think they are overpriced but we will see what we can find.

Well I am rambling because I am listening to a lecture for the 3rd time because the internet keeps going down due to the thunderstorms we are having right now. Finals are next Friday and then I am done with my first year.....hard to believe. The next year does not start until January and I am supposed to start on my PH.D in Sept so I guess I should get on that and make sure everything is good to go. I'll keep ya updated!
