Updatin

Well, we moved all of our things to the house last weekend... but I have been staying at my parents house with Alyssa since last weekend because all of the updating of the house is not done yet. It's not too bad... but, I wish I were at my house. I wish we were with Lance. I am sure he is missing Alyssa... and I am sure she is going, "where the frick is my dad???"...

But all in all, we are doing great. Just this past week Alyssa has gone from somewhat kinda army crawling to full on crawling and standing up against things/pulling herself up to a stand. Also, today, we fed her cheerios for the first time. This week has just been so full of firsts. Insanity.

One great WONDERFUL thing about being at home with my parents is that in the morning when Alyssa wakes up, I do not have to worry about ME being up to be with her... gotta love my parents for that. I don't even remember the last time I got to sleep in past the time that she was up... it's been so long. :)

Today I went to Lowes and bought some light switch covers for the bedrooms. They were on clearance (50 centers... what?!) so I got them for all 3 rooms... I was originally only going to get one for Alyssa's room, but the cost of 8 on clearance was half the price of the ONE that I was going to buy just for her. I love finding cheap good stuff. I also got a curtain rod for our bedroom for 7 dollars... it was marked down from 30. I love being cheap.

Well, here are some photos of the little lady. BTW, she loves baths, if you can't tell by the following photos. :)

Hi

I wasn't looking for a new job, but an opening fell right into my lap. Administrative Assistant position at Heald College in Roseville.

Here are the Pro's:

Roseville, not Sacramento. That would cut out about 30 minutes of commute.
Most likely more money.
Closer to Alyssa during the day in case anything happened.

Cons:

I am in a very comfortable spot at my current work place. I know them, they know me. I have no issues with anyone.

Like my mom said, it is a no brainer that I apply and try to get hired on. I always feel bad though when I leave a job. Even though I have never left on bad terms, I feel like I am abandoning them when I leave. But, I have to do what is best for myself and my family, so I am going to try this. I have an interview set already. We will see.

I am so hungry, but we have basically nothing to eat. I don't really want to go grocery shopping until we move, but that will most likely be another week. I think I will be forced to so that I dont starve to death.

Alyssa learned (somehow) to fake cough yesterday. My dad watches her, and he coughs a lot because he is sick right now. Well, she started to copy him and it is the cutest (annoying) thing ever. So cute, though. And, we know what her cough sounds like; that is how we know she is faking it. :) Plus, she does it back to us when we do it to her.

Ok. Hunger pain too much. Must go.
