my sun baby

It has finally cooled down to 90 degrees!!! It feels almost like winter here! So yesterday Colin and I brought his baby pool back outside. Yesterday was a mommy and me day just chillin' . So here are some pics from yesterday.

New Job

Yay!! I finally got my dream job! It is a full time day shift job and I still get 4 days off a week. It is also every 3rd weekend, so it gives us more time to travel and visit family. Colin also got into the daycare center at the hospital. When we first got put on the waiting list we were like 20th in line. It took a while to here back from the hospital about my job but they were waiting on BGSU to send them some information. So I get to start on August 30th, wish me luck!!! Today I have to take Colin to the daycare center to meet his teachers and to register. Fun, fun fun!

good friends

Visiting a monument literally in the middle of nowhere!

baby + car ride = sleep

It was great to see Megan & Jake! It just makes me think about all the great times we had and how lucky we are to have such good friends. If only we got to visit for longer! Here are some pictures from the weekend.

packing

Getting ready to go away for the weekend! We are going to Cumberland Lake in KY to meet Megan and Jake. Megan is my best friend from college who I haven't seen in a year and a half. They get to meet Colin for the first time! So at 3:30pm I am READY to go! We will see how much Colin lets me get done. I put him down for a nap 15 minutes ago and I can here him making farting noises through the wall. Have a great weekend everyone!

Welcome!

Well, this is my attempt to create a blog! I will do my best to try and keep it updated. For those of you who don't know. We moved to Kentucky July 19th 2010. Rory was offered a teaching position at Carlisle County Schools near Paducah, Kentucky. So we said our goodbyes and packed our bags. Rory started school August 4th. He teaches 7th grade language arts and 9th grade language arts. He will also be coaching middle school soccor in the spring. I have gone on 2 job interviews at Western Baptist Hospital and they went really well so I'm hoping to hear from them in the next few days! Paducah is a really neat historic town and there are lots of things to do! Hopefully more pictures to follow of the town. Last night we at at a carribean restaurant Flamingo Row. The food was amazing! So far we really love it down here but we still miss everyone so much! It's time to make Colin some lunch, so I better get going!
