It's been a busy couple of weeks for us around here.
Ken's company did a bunch of downsizing, leaving him looking (all over the country) for another job. No luck yet (stinking economy) though he has had a couple of good interviews. Keeping our fingers crossed that something great will turn up -- anyone out there need an exceptionally excellent product manager?
In the mean time, he's been keeping busy pursuing his more domestic side:
He made these. In fact, he's done it several times. It's probably the best darn homemade bread I've ever had.
Catching up on house projects. He and Luke refinished the deck - Luke spent literally all afternoon painting the railings. I love the way his feet look, all covered in paint.
I've been working, taking my board exams, doing some traveling (mostly for work, though Ken and I did take a trip to California for a few days and hung out near the beach).
Evie's been busy learning princess songs (her new favorite is "I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream" from Sleeping Beauty. She sings it pretty much nonstop, generally while twirling and dancing). She's speaking really well now, mostly in full sentences Her best the other day was while we were attacking her with kisses. She started giggling "No kissing Evie! No kissing Evie!" over and over. Her daddy hopes she keeps this phrase up at least into her 20s.
We've had a bunch of guests which has been fun - Caroline and Michael have been in town job hunting and house hunting, and the kids have loved having the cousins around
I've got more updates and posts coming.
Good luck to Ken on finding a job. The jobs out here are rather few and far between, we are very fortunate right now. That is too funny about Evie and the princess songs. Keira LOVES sleeping beauty and will do the same thing- she calls it the "I Know You" song and dances, sings, and twirls to it.
