Here are those Halloween pics. There are more but these were all my mom posted on face book at the moment.. Ellie had a blast! Even though her costume was to big and the wings wouldnt stay on.

Any difference?

So I was thinking about what has changed since being back in Arizona.... The weather.. But what else?? Yeah all our family is closer to use now and I have seen my sister loads more since being back.... But day in and day out I still find my self sitting with the computer or TV in front of me with the kids running a muck! Least in Illinois I had a moms group and friends that I could get out of the house and talk to... I have old friends here, but none I  hang out with or really even talk to. My one close friend is now 2 hours + away and though we used to have a meeting point when we lived in Chino, its just to far to drive in a day.

My brother is waiting to hear about a job here in Bagdad also.. He's waiting on the background part to check out and then hopefully the process with speed up. (Its always hurry up and wait with this company) If he gets the job then he and my SIL will be moving down here too.. Im oober excited about this because before they started dating her and I were close friends. We will be able to hang out, scrapbook together, lounge around, go to Prescott together.. Ill be so happy to have her (and of course my brother) here!

So the Halloween photos that I promised, well they are on my Mom's camera card and I dont have it... But these ones are from before we left Illinois. I wasnt sure if we would get the chance to T-or-t, so we dressed the kids up and took them out for pictures. Ellie was "Batarina" and Garrrett was just a brown puppy.

Rocky Road....

Ice cream is nummy! lol So Ive been wanting to blog for soooo long! We have make the trek across the US and finally made it home to Arizona. It took a little over a week to get our own house. Now we are almost all moved in. Its a 3 bedroom, 1 1/4 bath. Has nice yards and the lay out is just like the one my parents and I lived in when we first moved to Bagdad.. Oh and its also like right behind that house, lol.  I just got the internet hooked up today, woot woot!

Wow, over the passed 3 weeks I have thought about sooo many things to blog about, good and bad and now I cant seem to remember a single one of the topics.. Booo.. Oh well, now I can blog again as it comes to mind.

The kids are both sick rights now, but we got antibiotics this morning so hopefully they will be filling better soon. As soon as they are well again Im going to check into the child care/day care so I can start going to they gym. I bough some super cute clothes the other day at Fashion Bug :) Im sad though cause the store in Prescott is closing :( However, it will keep me from spending anymore monies that I do not have right now.

Back to the kids, Garrett is full on crawling now! No stopping him anymore. He is also pulling up onto some things. He is a little flirt and looks just like Daddy. I have almost got him completely weaned from the boob. He takes a bottle with no problem all day long and even falls asleep with it.. But come night time, he doesnt want the bottle... He wants the good stuff.. Hopefully soon he will rely less on me as a pacifier and start sleeping through the night.

Ellie is a monster! She's a little diva, bad attitude, moody little ball of fire. She has quite the vocabulary and asks a million questions. She is doing so well with potty training, though we still have accidents, wear pull ups a lot, but Im proud of how good she is doing. Sleeping is a whole different topic though. She doesnt want to go to bed at night, has pushed her naps back later and wakes at night. A 2 yr old is every bit as hard as a baby!!

We had a good Halloween and actually got to go TorTing with my sister, BIL, mom, niece and nephew! Ill post pics soon. Ellie got the hang of it fast. :)

Thats all for now. So happy to have internet again!
