I've been pretty busy lately and haven't posted anything in a long time. Here goes...
Laura is doing really well. She and Miriam seem to have reached an understanding. There are still days that I can tell she gets frustrated, but that's part and parcel of being a mom. Laura survived my first business trip, all alone with the girls. I know Sean and Connie are probably laughing, but its new for us to have that many kids at once.
Laura and I committed to getting more exercise. Laura is doing really so far and I'm really proud of what she's accomplished. I'm doing ok too, but I'm pretty impatient when it comes to this sort of stuff. I looked into getting some workout equipment (workout bench, treadmill, etc.) and quickly gave up. My wish list was pretty pricey and we have no place to keep all that stuff in our tiny place.
We've definitely outgrown our little apartment and are ready to start looking at homes for sale. I think within the next month we'll hire a Realtor and start looking at homes. We're looking for something kind of specific and of course want it at a discount. We'll see how things go once reality sets in. We're looking in Northeast Richardson, North Garland, Murphy, Sachse, and Wylie areas (maybe Rowlett if we find something irresistible). If we could find something affordable in Plano we'd be interested.
The girls have adjusted pretty well to having another sibling. Of course, I don't think either of them remembers a time without the other. That's one of the many cool things about having two children so close together. The other day, Lilia was trying to calm Miriam down and told her, "It's ok Miriam, I'm your best friend." I wasn't there, but it sounds really cute.
Well, my lunch hour is over. I hope to hear from the rest of you soon.
