Smmer Vacation is Over :(

Summer vacation is over and I'm back to work :( at least Gwenie and Max get to go to work with me! It's actually been going pretty good. It's amazing what 4 months can do for maturity in boys...and I was really worried about their new dog that they got at the end of school year but he's been really good too!


Jared started his student teaching almost 2 weeks ago. He has to drive about an hour to Eminence everyday. Something we didn't plan for, especially with gas prices, but at least it only lasts a few months, then he'll be able to get a job teaching, hopefully! God has been providing so much for us though...Jared was supposed to be student teaching with one of the other coaches from W. Vigo, but then that guy got a job in Vigo Co. so Jared was asked to sub for his class until they found a new teacher....the good news...he got paid for the days that he subbed (5 days!) Jared has also been busy with football...as he always is this time of year. Tomorrow night is their first game of the season...hopefully they do okay...Jared said they didn't look very good at all at the scrimmage last week. We'll have to keep a running scoreboard on our page of all the games...just in case someone is interested.

Gwenie and Max are doing good. Gwenie is enjoying playing with Sarah this week and wishing she could go to preschool like her. She also is still very much into dressing up and dancing around like a princess. She thinks she is way older then she really is :) My little girl is getting to independent :(

Max on the other hand needs his momma every chance he can get me! He's very much a mommy's boy :) I love to hear him laugh and I love it even more when he laughs at something on his own without us trying to get him to laugh. He's so cute!! He tried cereal for the first time yesterday and loved it. I was going to post a video of it on here, but the video we took didn't turn out very well. We have some pictures though.

These are just random pictures...I forgot to download Max's 3 months pictures from the web so I'll post those next time.
