"Look mommy green snot..."

So today was a pretty good day......I must say it is nice to be back online....."Oh how I missed you so"......All the girls and Nana are sick....so lets just say we had lots of tissues, green snot and attitude......and the girls love to show me the tissues the used.....I swear my kids are 10 times more crabby when they don't feel well and freaking whiny.....I hate whining!....And to top it all off my patience level was pretty thin today.....I really want to know how parents can parent with out raising their voice??? I really try not to raise mine (Mikiah is really sensitive and I know I shouldn't) but every once in awhile it just happens....it doesn't help that I am loud to begin with.....So sorry to my girls today for my own lack of patience......I know I can expect a bit much from them.....I suppose I keep forgetting they aren't even three yet....though their birthday is just around the corner......

On a side note......I was able to get some WSU work done.....Yeah!.....Actual work is going great......been trying to do as much as I can.......and now that I am back online and all VPN-ed into WSU I will be able to get more done!.......so nice to exercise the mind.....and so fun to work with Karey.....Just love her and still so thankful!....Even better that she lives right next door....So great and I love that she is always up for a beer on the stoop and adult conversation.....God knows we all need that every now and then......I must say the girls too love that Pat and Karey live next door.....they always call for Pat when they are on the back stairs (cause they can see over the fence)...."Hi Pat!"...."You there!".....and when he is......he is gracious enough to carry on a conversation with the girls....they just love it!

So Shawn and I were up to more planning today.....he finally locked down a start date.....October 10th.....he is so excited to be back in the work force again. I am thrilled for him.....and still in a bit of shock that we are moving to San Antonio.....(I think its the 8 largest city in the nation)...I suppose shock is the wrong word....I guess I am giddy-ly anxious......The cool thing is there is lots to do there...Sea World, Six Flags, Riverwalk, Alamo.....Tons of stuff for all my friends and their kids to come down and do....WINK WINK!.....Ahhhh, I can not wait till we are all settled into a house and host our first guests!......I just love looking at houses and the prices are great!.....Ahh well its all just so exciting.....I am off to check some more out.....its additcting!
