Nothing's better than a grilled burger!

Tonight, I grilled burgers, and they came out awesome!

I didn't write yesterday because there wasn't much to write on. We're still waiting on that call from GSU saying that he got the job and that we're moving. I'm not a fan of being in limbo.

Victoria was sent home yesterday because they said she had lice still. HELLO???? SHE HAS NO HAIR!!! So, naturally, I think they're a little irritating. I'm seriously considering taking her out of daycare. My only concern there is that she won't get to interact with kids her age like she does there. That, and she loves it. But, we don't qualify for the scholarship that she's been on since April because I don't work. While I was pregnant, that was fine, but now apparently that's a problem. So, instead of it being 35 a week, it's now gonna be 85 if we take her the same amount of time. And unfortunately, Shane doesn't crap out gold bricks.

Dylan is getting better every day. Today, he was really active. So, I was given socks with rattles on the feet to put on him. It serves as a very amusing alarm. At the hospital, they said he's 10.5 lbs. So, he's gained only 3 lbs in the time since he's been born? Is that normal? I mean, he eats normally.

Anyway, it's off to bed for this girl!

Dylan and I are home!

We got released around noon today from the hospital. Seriously, they came and told me I could call Shane to come get us, and within 5 minutes, most of the room was packed. Of course, there were things I couldn't put away til he got there, but that happens. Anyway, so we left there and went straight to Candi's, which is practically a second home. That, and she was great and watched Victoria while Dylan was in the hospital and Shane was working. Honestly, I don't know what I would do without that woman. Which is one reason I'm scared to go to Georgia. I know, it's a little silly, but she's the closest thing to a mother figure I've ever had, and I'm not sure I'm ready to let that go. =(   On to happier thoughts.. When we were on our way back from the Q, where we met up with my Tia Sylvia and Tio Ken, Victoria started saying "I see you". It was both adorable and creepy. I mean, where is my little girl learning to say all these words? Just a few months ago, she had a 10-15 word vocabulary. Now, she's talking in sentences! Oh, and she also says "shoe". It's funny! Then, we came home, and nothing real exciting is going on. But, Dylan is sleeping like an angel, and Victoria went to bed good tonight. She's starting to do better about bedtime. Now, if we could get her to go to bed good for someone other than Daddy, we'd be good!

Good news!

Dylan and I get to go home! Will write more later!

First time blogger.

I keep seeing people posting these blogs, so I thought I'd give it a shot. If people read it, great. If not, then it'll be something to get my thoughts out.

Dylan and I have been at the hospital since Thursday. He had a fever of 103, and so they admitted him. If he goes through tonight without having any fevers, then we go home tomrrow! <3

Victoria has been with Candi since Thursday after daycare. Poor girl has had a rough week. First with catching lice at school and having to shave her head (will post pics of that once I learn how), and then not seeing me for a few days, we gotta do something special with her.

Shane has been waiting on a job in Statesboro. He also just started another job here. So, we'll see how that pans out. Been praying about how this is supposed to work out. Anyway, he has a phone interview on Monday or Tuesday. But, we have a great feeling about this. That, and I know MIL is really wanting us out there so she can be part of her grandbabies lives.

And me, not much exciting is going on except for keeping my little family together and safe. Sometimes, I get frusterated with what life hands us, but I wouldn't trade much of it in. Like I've said, I'm very blessed with the family I have. I'm nervous and excited at the same time about the possibility of moving to Statesboro. Also, if I want to be completely honest, I'm a bit scared too. What if I don't fit in? What if we're moving to escape things instead of that being where we need to be? But, I've gotta think of the kids, and how good it'll be for them. I mean, a lot of my family has shut us out and made us feel unwelcome. So, Yuma being a small town, that makes it very uncomfortable for me. I'm tired of feeling bad for stuff I shouldn't feel bad about and paying for my mother's mistakes. Yes, I look a lot like her, but I'm NOT her.

That's it for now. I'll probably write more once Dylan and I get home!
