I have in my hand a set of keys for the house! We are starting to move tomorrow so I will probably be offline for a while until I can figure out the whole internet thing.
I am so excited, I could burst.
:)
I will make sure to post pictures once everything is done and in.

Jeiven
So I am labeling this post Jeiven because mostly I want to brag. That is what blogging is for right :)
So we had Jeiven's first parent/teacher conference today. I admit I was nervous. It is easy to have a skewed opinion about your child and I think it's hard to have someone else weigh in on how you are raising them. I survived. It actually went pretty good. The big thing that I was nervous about was that his potential would have been missed or that he is bored and acting out with misbehavior. I am happy to report that his teacher has noticed that he is very bright and that he is doing very well with his behavior ( for the most part) and he is following the rules too.
Let me give you an idea of what this kid is like ( and how dumb is mother is... :)
Last week we were having a conversation and he was telling me that he NEVER kills insects. I respond with "Yes you do! You kill spiders all the time"! He looks at me with disgust and says" Mom, spiders are not insects, they are arachnids. There is a big difference between the two. Insects have three body parts and 6 legs, and spiders have two body parts and 8 legs. If you don't believe me, you can look online". Well he was right. Am I in for trouble or what?
Things are going well otherwise. We have our niece here this week so that has been a bit of a challenge.. three kids.. I don't know how some of you have your kids SO close together.. I think I would go insane.
Nothing new on the house.. we are still set to move in the week of the 19th.
That's it :)
