Busy

It's been awhile since I posted on what's going on in my life so I will fill everyone in. To make a HUGE long story short, I had to quit Rural King. I am very upset as I really enjoyed my job there. It was supposed to be a "few nights a week" kinda job but it ended up taking up all of my time and Jarod and I NEVER got to see each other. Basically he would walk in the door at night and I would walk out. I had to work every weekend and we were having to miss church and other activities that we really enjoy.
It was kind of ironic because I was having thoughts of quiting but I was really enjoying the income. Well one night I got a call from Stephanie Peterein about babysitting her two cousins Kayden and Maddy for awhile until they could find permanent daycare. I said of course! So after watching them for a few days I new instantly that this is what I needed to supplement my Rural King income AND I don't have to work nights and weekends! I proposed it to my husband and he jumped on it. So I have three in my little house all day long but it's great. Shane is learning how to share and he helps me out a lot. I would really like to find one more little one to care for. However, I would like them to be 3 or 4 years old because the two I watch are 6 and 8 months old! I need another little helper! So if anybody knows of anyone looking for part-time or even full-time sitter let me know!
Well that's what's going on right now. I am really enjoying the cooler weather and can't wait for it to get even colder! I know I'm wierd :) That's it for now!

Get me out of here!

Found a stick.....go figure

Checking it all out

Still got the stick!

Which one should I pick?

Okay so I know it's been FOREVER since my last blog. To make a Looonnnggg story short, I've been pre-occupied with other things. My car has given us fits for the past month and basically I haven't had a car since last month. I have stumped every mechanic I have talked to about what is really wrong with my car. So I guess only time will tell. Hopefully it will get fixed soon.

In the meantime, Shane is lovin life! He is so much fun now that he is a year old. He can now run which sometimes drives me crazy but I enjoy every day I get to spend with him. My job is going fantastic. I typically work 4 nights straight and then get 3 days off so it works out. I leave almost as soon as Jarod gets off of work and I get home about 8:30 just in time to put Shane to bed. It's chaotic sometimes but it's working and I really enjoy the time away from the house.





So today we went to Bandy's Pumpkin Patch in Johnston City. It was so much fun. There is a McDonald's about a mile from he Pumpkin Patch so when we were done I went through the drive thru and got Shane some nuggets. He couldn't even eat one! He fell asleep with the nugget in his mouth. Wish I could have taken a picture of it but I would have wrecked the car! haha
