so how is everyone? I stopped by because I've seen so many happenings from here via facebook and want the scoop on everyone.
what are you all up to?
as for me....my divorce should be final within a week or 3. emma loves kindergarten. easton is a slow talker but i love the way he says "preash" for please. reminds me of a sweet cute old asian man's accent.
i have a boyfriend. he's great. no he hasn't met the kids and i don't have any immediate plans for that to happen, but we have talked about him moving to california in a couple years or so. yes, he lives out of state.
mikey finished treatment on june 1. it's freaky every month when we go in for his blood tests and i try not to totally spaz out with anxiety. he's in a special pre-k class through the district & loving it.
all 3 of my other kids are good, healthy & happy.
bennett is a BEAST. huge & a trouble maker but so damn cute he gets away with a lot.
Kenley's been sick, but she's better now, Presley's had the pinkeye, but it's back to school for her tomorrow, and SG is the principal at her school, haha
As for me, I guess I'm okay..Kenneth and I nearly split up last year, but we're back on track now..I had to straighten him up a bit
@ Sara - YES! I'm happy. I don't regret the decision at all. We tried the counseling thing and over time, it wasn't enough. Emma now has a happy mom and a happy dad :) I call Easton a beast, too. (Easton the Beaston).
If I knew how to upload pics here i'd post pictures of the kids, but i posted recent ones on both my facebook walls last week :)
@ Jen - Drew is MY man :P
@ Roxxxana - am i going to be the only nalgona around here? daaaaaang!
I am so glad you are happy-that is the most awesome!! And I lol at how E says preash-that sounds so friggin cute. I need to go scope out all of the FB pics.
In our neck of the woods, things are fine. Girls are good, Bill is miserable with his commute but otherwise good, my health is stable, yada yada yada.
We *just* started TTC-as in I should be fertile sometime this week and this will be our first go at it.
I don't have high hopes, but we are going to see what happens. He wants to try for a boy, so if we do end up with another, it will likely be a girl.
I'm finishing up my last year here and will be a SAHM within the year. We were TTC #3, but had a few bumps and will try again in December. Boys are HUGE and things are generally good. I'm so so glad to hear you are happy :)

haha, you know i'll fight you over him don't you :D
i stalk your page often but rarely find anything outside of MW stuff. i did see the pics of em & easton last week and they made me .
i'm just so happy you're happy. and your random pm's really helped me through some difficult times.
matt and i have had our ups and downs the past 3 or 4 months, but we're on the upswing right now. i take it one day at a time and am trying really hard to make sure i'm giving 100%. i don't want to have any regrets.
i'm a WAHM now. i'm working for erin's mom (so crazy how things happen around here) managing the colorado division of her tutoring company. our busy months are august through october. now the majority of my job will be overseeing the tutoring, occasional drop-ins at the schools and lots of at-home data entry. i've really enjoyed the work so far, although i will admit that part of me misses teaching.
emily is loving kindergarten and is doing really well. jake is freakin smart, dude, and we're going to move him to another school next month that will hopefully be more at his pace (he's a bit ahead and i think he's bored where he is now).
our house hasn't sold back east so we're in an apartment while we figure out what to do with that albatross. we're probably going to try to sell it through a flat fee broker and if that doesn't work, we'll try to rent it. we hope to rent here until next summer and then buy an investment property that we can live in until our house in NJ sells. then we'll rent out the investment property and buy a house out here.
wow, that was long. i'm just so happy to see you here.

My divorce was final back in June. I'm seeing someone. We have the best time together. Ethan is doing really well in kindergarten and overall. Work sucks but doesn't it always.

I'm glad to see you here!
so happy to read that you've found happiness :) we both deserve it, and more so, our kids :)
Good to see you around! Eventhough I'm not always around here either.
My kids are doing great. 5 and 3 now and Ava is loving kindergarten, only goes for half day but still good for her. Van is a 3 year old going on 13 LOL I am currently pregnant with our 3rd. Due late April 2011. Pregnancy has been going good so far.
Me and 2 of my childhood neighbors started our own business together in Jan bein a photographer and we've picked up so much business for our first year we didn't expect that much so that's been going well. I expect slow times this winter due to weather and holidays being over. Otherwise, loving every min of it!
Hope to see you around more.
As of Mel and TX, it was due to Rob's job offer in SA.
Glad you are happy and the kids are doing welll. Things are good here for me and my family at the moment. Lauren is loving K as I knew she would. Anna is in preschool and doing great.

agree. Last week when you posted pics on fb, I was remembering how Emma and E were gf/bf. I'm sure she's a little heart breaker in school.
