We have had a pretty exciting time here in Plantation. Sean's parents came to visit and we had a great visit. That is when Sean and I went to the U2 concert! It was a great show--so worth the 2 year wait!
My parents came a few weeks later. They drove across the country in our new-to-us Mini Van. Her name is Silver Streak, although I think she is grey or maybe champagne. We have joined the Mini Van club and so far I have to say I like it. We turned Rebecca's car seat around so there is less screaming so that is always good--hee hee. Now we just wait to add car seat #2!
My temp job turned into something a bit longer. I actually got a "promotion"! Long story short--I am back at the place I worked as a temp before I went to TrialGraphix. The people I used to work with are now permanent employees and they pick team members for the Quality Control/Assurance team. I got chosen by a girl I used to sit next too! It is weird reporting to her but hey it pays the rent for a few months. I plan to stay on until Baby Allen #2 arrives and there is work to be had.
I really enjoy working but I miss Rebecca terribly during the day. I know I am a better mother by having the outlet to work and use other parts of my brain a few hours a day. Sadly, the job doesn't pay enough for 2 kids in day care so I will stop working once the baby comes and we will probably keep Rebecca in day care 3 days a week. I am continuing to look for a new permanent positions and Sean is looking too.
Rebecca is blossoming at school and talks non stop--Sean taught her how to count to five and recognize "how many fingers?"--at 20 months! She repeats everything we say. I just taught her where her tush is--so funny. My dad taught her to tickle other people so she comes up to you and touches you so lightly you can hardly feel it! The other day we were leaving for school and she said "bye bye Daddy", "bye bye Kylie", "bye bye milk"--I almost peed my pants! We recently bought a potty chair but I don't think she is ready yet. She loves to sit on her potty and it is really funny when she misses and ends up on the floor!!
In closing, here is a picture of Kylie--gotta love her!
