Long time no see!

I tried to post on here a few months ago but it wouldnt let me for some reason....weird!

Anyways life has been great! The husband is now an official correctional officer and is not a trainee anymore, yay for a raise too! Kids are doing awesome! T and Big E got their first report cards of the year a few days ago and I have to say I have some VERY smart kids! Little E is doing great, she is walking, terrorizing everyone and everything in her path, and as of today can climb up on the couch! This should be fun since once she is on the couch she climbs onto the table next to the couch to look out the window lol......

Life here in Ely is ok, I am really missing my mom friends in Reno and wanted to go visit them before winter came but winter decided to come sooner then I thought it would so no road trip for us! It is very boring here in this small town in the winter, nothing to do but go bowling and check out the VERY tiny museums here.

Anyways off to put the littlest munchkin to bed....

Haven't been on here in awhile.....

Wow haven't been on here in months! So a little update.....
We moved to Ely NV and are finally back together with my husband! He has been here since the end of October training then working. We had a hard time finding a place to live since the town is so small and everything is for sale not for rent. So we got an offer to buy the mobile home that DH(dear husband) had been living in with 2 of his buddies and we took it. We are buying a 3 bedroom 2 bath mobile home for $15,000, only  thing is is that it is in the middle of being remodeled, so we only have access to one bathroom and the girls' bedroom does not have a door. We should have the kids' bathroom finished by the end of summer, hopefully sooner. We have to remodel the whole kitchen, and our bathroom, we're pretty excited about it. So we have officially bought our first place, yes its not what we originally wanted for our first place but its something. We plan on fixing it up, paying it off and selling it so we can buy something else. We are thinking that we can get about $25,000 once its all done, that will be a good chunk of change for a down payment.

The kids have been out of school since the 2nd and I am already ready for them to go back. Big E is ALWAYS torturing T, which little brothers are supposed to do but it is not fun when you are trying to get a baby to sleep and DH is sleeping so he can go to work that night. We are going to check out all the little museums here in town and the old cemetery. I cant believe T is going to be a 3rd grader and Big E is going to be a 2nd grader. Pretty soon Little E will be ready for kindergarten, ok not that soon but it will happen sooner than I would like. T and Big E are liking their new school but are missing their friends in Reno really bad. I was a little worried(ok still a little worried) about T making friends here, she is a little weird sometimes and is not as social as Big E is. Big E is having no problem making friends. Little E is 8 months old already! Hard to believe in 3 months she will be a year old. She has learned how to pull herself up from sitting a few days ago and is now saying Mom when she wants me.

Well off to go clean up before going to bed....New goal:To write on here once a week, let's see how long it lasts :)

Another day as a mommy.....

Yesterday as I was running around trying to get all 3 kids ready to leave the house and get myself ready I realized that I am truly blessed to have 3 amazing kids. Sure they can get on my nerves and act crazy sometimes but they are really good kids.

We went to open gym at my little sister in laws gymnastics place, Big E loves it! I thought T would of liked it more than Big E but yet again they prove me wrong. E was very good and only started crying when I would hand her off to my oldest little SIL or my if I would hand her off to my mother in law. Separation anxiety is in full force here! I have no clue how I am going to get through this year without her letting me do anything without her. Hopefully this will all change when we move and she gets used to Adam, cus mama needs some alone time!

T is going to her first birthday party today that is not one of my friends kids party. She is pretty excited, Im a little nervous because I am going to drop her off and go hang out with Big E and E. I am thinking about taking him to U-Swirl, a self serve frozen yogurt place, but T really wants to go so I might just take him to 7-11 and let him get a Slurpee. Oh to be a kid again and be happy with a Slurpee! So I better get off of here so I can shower while E is taking a nap, we have to run to Target since I waited until the last minute to RSVP to the birthday party and now have to run to get a present.

I need to come up with nicknames for my kids, because using Big E and E is confusing me! Suggestions? Should I use their nicknames instead or just their real names?

Another Friday night....

Its another Friday night home alone with my little munchkins. E is teething so bad right now, I really wish her tooth would come through already. I have been holding this child for 3 days now, the only place she wants to sleep is my chest, lets just say my arms hurt like crazy. T and Big E have been off track for a week now and I am not sure how I or them are going to survive the summer. Hopefully we will be able to go to the lake alot and check out our new surroundings. We are moving to a new place in about 2 weeks, I have mixed emotions about it. I am sad that we will be moving away from an awesome group of friends and that we will be living so far from family but I am happy that we will finally be able to experience it being just our little family without having our family around. Its a new beginning in a new town with a new career and new friends....wish us luck! I am really nervous that the kids are going to have a hard time finding friends for some reason, more nervous for T then for Big E, she tends to be shy at school and likes to have one or two friends she plays with but she would rather be in her classroom at recess reading a book. Big E has no problem making new friends, he is shy at first but after awhile he gets along with everyone. I am also worried about me making friends, I have made life-long friends here and really do not want to leave them, they have helped me so much this last year from taking and picking up my kids from school when I was on bed-rest for what felt like forever when I was pregnant with E to always being there when I need a break or a cup of sugar. I am going to miss all my lady friends. Im really going to miss my mom, this will be the farthest I have ever lived away from her. No more calling her up and her taking a week off of work to come and hang out with me for a few days, no more her taking the kids for a week every chance she gets since it will be a 9 hour trip one way.

On the bright side, I am VERY excited to finally be back with my husband, he has been in the town we are moving to since the end of October. He has missed out on so much that E has been doing, and I feel so bad for it but he will get to see her do everything soon. T and Big E miss daddy so much. I miss daddy! I cant wait to be able to cook him dinner, lay with him on the couch, cuddle with him in our bed, smell his soap after he gets out of the shower, you know the little things. I think this has really been good for our relationship, this is the longest we have ever gone being away from each other in the 8 years we have been together. I love him with all my heart and I love the man that he has become.

Well it is time for me to go and try to lay in bed, I wish I could wake up and it be the first week of April already!
