Random Stuff

I am tired of looking at all of the moved stuff and I need to download and or take pictures of Terrilyn with her glasses on because she is way too cute. Thought I would share some bits of randomness:

~Alexander calls oatmeal "Oatmilk" we ran out of our stash and he was very upset that we were out of said "Oatmilk" and then informed me that we needed to go to Walmart to buy more. I am glad that he is starting to understand that things need to be bought when gone but worried that maybe I spend too much time in Walmart.

~Outside of our new neighborhood is a row of trees that just recently blossomed big and pretty and every time we drove by them(which is a lot now that I have to drive Cameron to school) my middle two kids insisted on me either "talking about the popcorn on the trees" or singing Popcorn Popping on the Apricot Tree.  It was funny at first and I was glad to have a chance to educate them about spring but after about 3 days of it I was very grateful to see leaves take place of the beautiful blossoms and a week later they informed me that the blossoms were gone and the leaves were here.

~Jeremy won some tickets to the Scottish festival here in town on twitter(can we get across how obnoxious he has been about going?)

~Seamus is totally walking and he goes forward at full spead ahead

~We bought a doggy door for the sliding glass to for Chewy who at the moment is still too scared to go when the flap is down(we barely got him to go through with it taped up and a bribe of cheese on the other side)
we had to get him groomed the other day and they had to go really really short...because his favorite spot is under the kitchen table during mealtimes and with 4 people to sit under for getting dropped food well it ended up matted in his fur

~I just took the cenuses worker test today because heck they are paying $14.50 an hour and I can work in the evenings after Jeremy is off and its only temporary and I found out I aced it that's right 28 out of 28.  There were 4 people that had come in to retake the test because they didn't like there previous score or didn't finish it.  In the next 3 weeks if they are going to hire me I will get a phone call otherwise oh well.

~Cameron was sent home early from school yesterday with pink eye...ughhhh...hoping that it doesn't spread to the other kids.  My eyes itch just looking at his or when putting drops in them.

I guess that's enough randomness to bore you all   :-)

moved........again

well for those of you that haven't heard we have moved, but there is good news in all of this, we moved into a BIGGER house.  we have gained a bedroom and a half bath and 700 sq ft.  we are jumping with joy for the room but are still recovering from moving it over the weekend.  one of jeremy's coworkers lost his renter and offered us the house for the same rent we were paying at the other house.  this was all decided about a week and a half before we could be at the new house.  so lots of scrambling to pack and after about 15 - 20 different trips we are here loving the space adjusting to a 2 story and once again i am finding my self surrounded in a sea of boxes.  if it takes me as long to unpack this time around as last we will  have lived the better part of the last year out of boxes(it was last june that i felt prompted to start packing and the sea of never ending boxes had started).  i think i promised this last time but when i get everything unpacked and painted i will post pictures for you all to see.  :-)
