I love Fruity Pebbles!!

Today I got a call from the bank for a second interview!!! So that's great! Now I'm just waiting around for the school to call me!! Cause I really want that one. But whatever direction God wants me to go. Mom and Dad came over to Grandma's house (Granny's is only 5 minutes from my house) on Thursday. We had lots of fun. We took a 4 generation picture.

It turned out pretty good. Grandma always has her mouth open so it's ok. Today I've been pretty bored BUT what's new. I was standing by the window with my camera and I took this awesome picture!!

I thought it was neat!! It's the first time I've seen two sitting at the same time. We have three regulars. Two females (in the picture) and one male. Scott and I are trying to figure out some names. I think the male will be Brutus or Nemo. Maybe you Moms that read my blog can help me with this one. I am deathly afraid of SIDS!!! Megan has been rolling over in her sleep lately. So I find myself waking up like 4 or 5 times a night to check on her. She is almost 7 months (WOW she's growing up fast) and I know that from 2 to 4 months is the time to watch. So I'm just wondering if any of you freak out too? Anyway that's it for this blog. But I'll leave you with some thoughts and some more pictures.

Megan fell asleep playing again.

Football is rapidly approaching so I just wanted to make sure her hat fit. lol She doesn't like it much.

She loves playing with the hard wood floors.

Big Brother thoughts:

• I'm not sure if I'm happy Dick stayed or not. I wanted him to leave BUT at least he can work on his relationship with Daniele.
• Amber is driving me up the wall.
• I'm so happy that Daniele is HOH this week. She is a GREAT game player.
• Eric is dumb. And I can't believe Jessica might like him.
• I think Jameka and Eric are going up Sunday. Mark my words.

Life is so awesome with God by your side.

So apparently this is not a daily blog! lol. But so much as gone on these last 10 days it's hard for me to find time. I sent out 5 resumes and I've had an interview with everyone! I'm so blessed. Today I'm having my 5th interview with Fairview Elementary School!! This is the one I want so please pray for me. God please give me the words to say. I also (Friday) had an interview with Midwest Federal Credit Union. Which is a great job. I'm hoping if the school doesn't work out that this bank will work out. (15.25 an HOUR for part time!!!!!!!!!!!) So I'm just asking all my friends and family to pray for me and my potential jobs. Other then that life is great. Megan is a perfect child. She doesn't cry much, she's happy all the time. She and her Dad had a bath Friday night. It was so cute. She loved it.

And did I mention that she is the cutest baby?? I think I have. I'm just so happy and excited where my life is leading me and my family. Recently I felt as though I hit a real low in my life. I know I have a great life and family and friends. I just didn't feel like I deserve them. And I was really down on life and upset about losing the house we wanted. So I gathered what strength I had and pray to God and just give Him the situation. I just prayed that something in my life would change. We needed money and I am and was having cabin fever with Megan lol. It's hot up here. So I just prayed that I could find a job or something that would change our lives and so I could help someone else's. So I believe that God has given me these interviews and hopefully if it's right for me I'll get the school job. So cross your fingers.

The other day I put Megan in a laundry basket and I got some cute pictures:

Now I'd like to comment on Big Brother. I am getting sick of Evil Dick and his mouth! I want him out BAD. Also I found something out that's kinda neat. I know Amber's boyfriend, Ben Veasy, he was a senior when I was a sophomore I think. They live in Las Vegas. And alot of people who know Ben and Amber in Sturgis say she really is a whiner in real life too. Which drives me insane by the way. So I'm hoping that Dick not Danielle gets voted off. But I'm not so busy now so hopefully I'll blog more often. Don't forget to pray about me.

What's been going on??

Well I know I haven't really been blogging lately but I have a good story. There were ups and downs this last week.

Friday through Sunday-

We had The Baker Reunion!! It was so fun! I got to see cousins I haven't seen in awhile. I got to introduce family members to my husband and Megan. They liked Scott but LOVED Megan. (who doesn't??)

In the picture that isn't everyone but almost. They had a golf tournament and Scott's team won. We had Baker Olympics and Scott's team came in 2nd BUT our team had the best poster!!!! Scott has to win everything. It was just really fun. From July 21st till July 30th Scott was in heaven with his new buddy Doug, my cousins husband. They were inseparable for awhile. Scott was even trying to make them move up here from Florida! Right. Here's some pictures.

That's Doug and Mary.

My mom and one of her sisters Cathy.

My cousin Emmi and I. (pretty good picture of me)

Megan playing with the mirror in the bathroom.

Overall the reunion was a blast and I can't wait for 3 years to come around so we can go to Cape Cod for the next one.

The rest of my week kinda sucked. Monday was fun I hung out with Mary and her family for a while. Tuesday was softball day, which means Taco Bell YUMMY!!! And big brother was bad because Nick was nominated!!! Wednesday was good and really bad. I had 2 interviews one at First Federal Bank and one at Fairview Middle School for a secertary job. It was great hopefully I get one of them. BUT the people we were buying a house from couldn't wait for us to sell our house so the sold it to someone else!!!!! I balled for a good part of the day and dropped a few "f" bombs. I know that's not good but it made me feel better. But Scott and I decided if I get a good job we are going to build our own house!!! So now I don't care about the other house much, still mad though. Yesterday I went to Shipshewana which was ok but my friend that I brought along was grumpy so it sucked. And Big Brother sucked because Nick got kicked out!!!!!!!!!! But I guess I was getting sick of his hair! Well anyway that's that so the next blog well be shorter and more interesting.

Guess what?!?!?!?!?!

Megan is sitting up like a big girl!!!! And she does it pretty good no falling over or anything. She is growing up so fast!!!!

And I thought I'd add some more pictures just for your viewing pleasure!! Plus Megan is so cute. She has so many faces that she makes its really funny. So if your having a bad day these will but a huge smile on your face.

Oh yeah!!

I forgot to show you all a picture I took last night that just goes to show that Megan is going to be the next president! (or whatever geniuses do) After making dinner I came into the living room to see Megan was READING!!!!! She is so smart!

Yep that's my daughter reading her first book!!!

Megan after she knew she was caught reading!

Life is so weird sometimes!

Ok so I was gonna blog yesterday but I think Megan is getting her upper teeth cause she was very difficult yesterday. But she's better today. So Tuesday I went to Sturgis (Sorry Jill your turn is Thursday the 2nd) to see my friend Kelli and her daughter Emma. Let me tell you that is REALLY weird to see one of your best friends in high school be a mom. And Kelli's sister Katie (who i swear the last time i saw her she was 13 lol) has a baby, Olivia. We were all there just watching our babies play with each other. It was really cute. But really weird cause Kelli, Katie and me (i guess) shouldn't be moms we should be hanging out at the Hudgens house messin' around. (Stephanie, Kelli said Hi and she missed you and you have a beautiful baby. And she looks like Josh!) I had a dose of reality on Tuesday but it was really fun.

From left to right: Emma (Kelli's baby, Megan, and Olivia Katie's baby)

Emma and Megan meeting for the first time. They hit it off pretty good just like Kelli and I.

We all went swimming at Fish Lake (sorry again Jill! I know your gonna hate me)

Other then the reunion between Kelli and I, I'm gettin ready for the Baker Reunion. Man Megan has to have more stuff packed then me!!! The reunion will be fun we have a really cool family. Although at every reunion its kinda hard for me because I never really met my PaPa (Baker) because he passed away when I was 1. And everyone talks about him and reminds me of what an awesome PaPa I missed out on. But I know he's my #1 angel and my life has turned out perfect because of him and his example that he gave my mom. Anyway it should be fun. So I won't blog till Monday or Tuesday.

Side notes:

• Megan is almost sitting up by herself well with the help of her Boppy.



• I about pooped my pants this morning!!!! I woke up at 8:15 and I freaked out cause Megan is usually up by then and I walked into her room and she was on her tummy!!!! Come on I'm a new Mom it scares me! Luckily she was still breathing!


• AND big brother!!!!! I was praying that Jen got kicked out!! Now I'm hoping Keil leaves she is turning out to be a real lair. But Jen must go!! And Dick should be right after her he's a real jerk.
  
• When in Sturgis Megan found Grammy and PaPa's toy and she loved it!! She was dancing to the music!! She's so cute!!!!!!
  

Not much going on

Sorry I haven't blogged in a long while. I've just been feeling blahish and lazy. Hey I can be lazy if I want. Well nothing much has happened since the last time.

Sunday- Went to Sturgis to go to Kari (Newman) Hatt's shower and there was the cutest little girl there (besides Megan). She loved Megan. She has downs so she didn't know how rough she was playing with Megan but it was SO cute. Megan loved her too! Oh and we got home JUST in time to watch Big Brother!!!!! How can Jen be HOH!~!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate her!!!!!!!!!!!! She's so dumb. Why would she put up Danielle and Evil???? I like them! Jen must GO!!!!!!!!

Tuesday- Got a call from The State Bank and Trust for a interview!!!! Today is softball day and I love it. I get to talk to all the moms and its just really fun. I held another baby and Megan was jealous. It was cute cause now I really know she loves me. lol Big Brother was ok . Danielle won veto and Jen put up Joe!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!! This is Megan watching Daddy play ball.

Wednesday- Had my interview. It went ok. I'm not sure about it. They want me to work ALONE two days a week. And only 20 hours or less I wanted like 20 to 25. But Scott and I are talking about it. Mackenzie (Scott's niece) came over to play with Megan. Mackenzie loves Megan so much it's really cute to watch. She's 13?? Whatever age you are when you go into 7th grade. We had strawberries. Yummy!! Here's picture

If you can't see Megan LOVED the whipped cream.

Ok so we're up to today! There's really nothing that happened today EXCEPT the people that we are buying a house from are trying to sell their house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so mad. Good luck because housing market in Sherwood is crappy! Anyway just pray for us. Anyway my cousin from Florida is coming up tomorrow so that'll be fun.
