Back!

I'm back from Portland and I had a blast! The girls were both so happy and enjoyed themselves thoroughly! I wish we could have stayed!

Classes started and I'm taking Yoga, Piano, and Sociology of Marriage and Family. Yoga is four days a week for an hour and a half, so I should get rid of some of my shapes.

I'm reading Lord of Misrule. The fifth book in Rachel Caine's Morganville Vampire series. I'm truly loving this series. It's gone by so fast! I read the first four in no time at all! There are so many great books coming out soon though, it's going to be hard to get all of them!
Here's some great ones coming in the rest of this year:
Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink
Blue Moon (The Immortals Book 2) by Allison Noel
Catching Fire (Sequel to The Hunger Games) by Suzanne Collins
Fade Out (Morganville Vampires Book 7) by Rachel Caine
Blood Promise (Vampire Academy Book 4) by Richelle Mead
Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen
The Van Allen Legacy (A Blue Bloods Novel) by Melissa De La Cruz
Killers (Pretty Little Liars #6) by Sara Shepherd
Treasure Map of Boys (Roo 3) by E. Lockhart

So Many Books, Too Little Time!

VACATION!!!!!

So, I get to go on my very first vacation in 4 years! I'm so excited! We're going to Portland and Seattle!! It's going to be so fun! If anyone has been to either of these places and has any suggestions for me, let me know!

Maybe

This is all of my Pez dispensers spread out all over the carpet!

Okay, so I didn't get the Chemistry Research Assistant job that I wanted. It really sucks because I totally thought I would. I decided I'd just take a couple classes instead, so I'm taking Piano, Yoga, and Sociology of Marriage and Family. Hopefully it'll be a good semester.

On a better note, I applied to Portland State. They have on campus housing for families, so I can apply for that if I get in! And they have a child care program like the one the kids are in right now. I'm wishing and hoping that something finally goes right. Just gotta suck it up and save money!

Summer "Vacation"

So I'm done with school until June 8th. I've read three books in the past week, and my kids are driving me crazy already!
The thing about daycare is that you get out of practice with your own kids. It sucks. You get them back at the end of the school year and don't know what to do with them! Plus, I think Sadie may have just hit her terrible twos!
AHHHH...They call it summer vacation, but is it really a vacation?

Oh, and I got a B in Physics! A's in the rest of my classes! I'm so proud!

May 5th!!

So Melissa walker and Susane Colasanti both have books coming out on the 5th of May. So of course they're having a contest! You can go to Melissa's blog to win Susane's prize and Susane's blog to win Melissa's prize. How fun is that?!

I've already got Melissa's book pre-ordered, but I'm going to have to pick up Susane's!

So I actually got to take a nap today!

Okay, so the good news is Sadie is better, Lena is getting better, and I'm not getting any worse. School is almost over too, so I'm excited about that. My chem teacher told me on Monday that in order to keep my A in the class I have to get at least a 60% on my final. Hmmmm...I think I can do it! Physics is the class I'm really worried about. I need to get at least a C to be happy. I just pray that I don't have to take it again! I updated my Facebook with some new pics of the kids, so I guess I'll post a couple here too!

Someday!

Someday I'll be back to regular blogging! I've been so busy! My baby girl turned one on the 8th and we had a party on Saturday! Of course, now she's sicker than a dog. She's very sad and pathetic and there's never anything you can do for babies these days!
I'm also trying to wrap up the semester, including crappy physics which I hate passionately! The good news is that I might get a job as a research assistant for my Chem teacher over the summer at a beautiful $12 an hour (which I could definitely use!). Well, that's it for now! I'll catch up later!
