What's Up with Us

Wow. I haven't updated our blog in a long time. Alot has changed. The biggest change being that Mike had a JOB!! He started working for Pacific West Construction in May as just a laborer but with the promise of something more. Then the beginning of June he got a promotion to a supervisor of the Sacajewa Learning Center in Salmon. (Not sure if thats spelled right) That was the good new but the bad news is that he works in Salmon all week and is only home on the weekends. Sadie and I really miss him but it is a good oportunity and learning experiance for him. He is not yet doing the job that he got his degree for but it is one step closer and we are greatful. I am still working part time at a partial care but did pick up a few more hours during the summer. I work two full days a week and three half days which isn't too bad but I miss spending that extra time with Sadie. I am also getting more burn out and have been considering quiting but can't yet. If I could get pregnant I would have more reason to quite but as of yet that has not happened. I guess I just have to be patient. Sadie is growing and learning so much. She seemed to be advanced for her age. She can say six word sentinces, has her favorite books memorized, can count to 5 almost 10, and can sing songs such as "I'm so glad when daddy comes home" on her own. I don't know. Maybe she is not ahead for her age but I still have to brag. She would make a great big sister. We have to be careful what we say because she will repeat everything we say. She has a little attitude and when I ask her to put her clean up she says "You clean up" in a sassy tone. I often have give her an incentive to do what I want her to. She is working on potty training but is refusing to sit on the potty. She seems to think monsters live in her potty. We'll just have to keep trying.
