Baptism

Hey peeps! Hope everyone had a good weekend...I was working... Anyhow, Jenna, did you see if Riley fits into Eric's baptism outfit right now? I know that doesn't guarantee a fit in 3 weeks...LOL...but at least we'd have an idea. :) It would be nice if he could wear Eric's, but if it doesn't fit, let me know so I can do some shopping for one that does. :)

Bye!

Hi Ya'll

Ok, so here's how things have been going down lately...

I have had 2.5 interviews in the last couple of weeks..... 2 of them were about 1.5 hours away from my house, but no big deal, I can elaborate more on those if I am offered a position at either one. One is 5th/or 6th and the other is a 7th grade reading position at the middle school. I will probably ask for everyone's thoughts on it. Heck, I may even do a phone conference sometime! I think I know how to do that!?

Anyway, the .5 interview is b/c the school that called me once before is telling me that another one of their positions is opening up - April - this would be the school that called and cancelled before I even got to the interview cuz they filled the positions before interviewing me - and - the principal emailed me and wanted to know if I was still interested. This position would be 3rd grade and it's only a half hour away. Of course it depends on the pay schedule that will kind of determine where I go next year.

So.......I'm waiting on the interview yet for the last school, but the other two I have intereviewed with and they will get back to me possibly at the end of this week or the beginning of next. Either way, I will have an idea of what lays ahead.

Easter - went pretty well. The Easter bunny outdid himself again this year :) Riley is under the weather again, upper respiratory infection and he's on azythromax and hopefully that will kick out the bad stuff soon. He's growing so fast. He's in 6month clothes (barely) at the moment. 6-9 months will work for a while I think. I sure hope he'll fit into Eric's baptismal outfit. It's basically just a white onsie type looking thing with a few frillies on it, but nothing like Emma's. He doesn't have a whole suit or anything, so I don't know if that's acceptable to the Godmother or not? :)

umm, oh...I do have Riley's 3 month pictures. LOL....I kind of put them on the back burner and not really thought about sending those out. I still haven't decided if I should, or if I will just give them to you when you get here.LOL...we'll see!

Well, that's about it for now. I will talk to you soon....P.S. I have the countdown clock on my myspace page. Liz...you need a page.....Katie, you need to check yours more often! :)

Later....

Hi Ladies! and Aaron LOL if he reads this anyway :)

Hey!

First off.....no news from BGSU :( that isnt necessarily a bad thing though. I might still hear something from now until after April 15th sometime so who knows. This just might be my own insecurities but for some reason I don't have a good feeling about it. But I guess Im not gonna rule it out yet since there is still a chance. My boss Chrissy keeps saying "when you go back to school" she thinks I'll get in but I just dont know.

Second....I can't wait to come out and see Jenna and Crew :) 1 month from today!!!!!!!!!

Katie....sorry I missed your call over the weekend...I went shopping this past weekend in Michigan with Janna. I went up to visit her for the weekend and we spent practically the entire weekend in a mall LOL....I found some really cute things for Emma at the Disney store for her Easter and Birthday presents.

So Jenna Im gonna be putting some things in the mail but you prolly wont get it before Easter so its gonna be an after-Easter present.

Liz....are we on for Thursday??? There really isnt much at the movie theater so I dont know what you want to do but we can hang out....I got something for you.

Well thats it here,
April

KT's winter

Hey there, it's been a LOOOONG time!

I think that time between New Years and spring can get a little dull sometimes... cold, too many bills, taxes. Aside from cheesy Valentine's days, there is nothing much cheerful in the dead of the winter. I did enjoy MLK day and President's day... I love me 3 day weekends. Since a picture can say so much, here is how I spent most of the last few months:

haha... jk, that was our biggest snow of the year. Actually, I've really come to like snow this year, maybe for the 1st time ever. We didn't go skiing or tubing (Scott lost interest, lol) but I did have lots of downhill commute time to bond with the white stuff. Ice however, still sux, and will always suck unless it's in my glass of a refreshing drink!

Here's a couple of places I ventured to this winter:

The Norman Rockwell museum is in western Mass, very cute!


The basketball hall of fame (Springfield, MA- the birthplace of bball). Scott wants to visit all the major "Halls of fame". 1 down, lot's to go, LOL, it was kind of cool.


The Brooklyn Bridge- this is my German friend Bernhard, we met at OSU. He works in Boston a couple times of year. We took the cheap Chinatown bus to NYC to visit Victor (another buddy from grad school).

Here's Victor, he's switched from statistics to the great world of finance!

Yea, a real post!

Hey! Good to hear from ya Jenna. :) Anyhow, I really hope you're able to find a teaching job without moving. I'll be crossing my fingers over here for ya! Sounds like Riley's growing up pretty fast! I can't wait to see all of you...Emma won't even remember us from last time :)

What's new on the Boston end, KT? I'm psyched you were able to find a ticket...wouldn't be the same without all of us!

Any news from BGSU, April?

I have nothing very exciting to share. Just the usual work thing, orthodontist appointments, trying to decide what/when grad school might be in my future, etc. Had a shopping trip over the weekend with my aunt, mom & Kristin. Kristin doesn't come home from Columbus much, so that was fun :) She's enjoying her job with the Columbus Dispatch. I think she's doing some sort of ad sales type thing...much better job than selling cosmetics at Macy's (which sounds fun, but if you're not at a big, popular Macy's, it kinda sux).

Have a good week,
Liz

New Stats....

Yeah we pretty much went down the toilet for a while there. Things have been kinda rough for me lately....like....not having a job next year and looking for something close, but having the realization that I may have to move if I don't find something soon in the teaching field... :(

Anyway, enough of that stuff, I can elaborate more later...

Riley's new stats as of March 3rd...
He is in the 75th %ile for height (which means he's taller than 75% of children his age) 50th% for weight and 30% head circumference

He weighs 14 lbs and is 26" long. He is quickly outgrowing the 3-6 month outfits right now and may be moving into 6 month outfits before he is 5 months!

We started feeding him cereal & real food & is eating it up! Pretty soon I think he'll be bigger than Emma. He rolls over and laughs & giggles & it's very cute. I took his 3 month pictures at the beginning of February and just haven't sent them out yet. I may do it soon or just wait until ya'll get here...I'll think about it!

I'm so excited to see you all.....!!!!!!!

44 days of school left for Jenna!

I think we died again....
