Life in the Slow Lane

So I am Day 3 into my new job. I am working for the Arkansas Department of Education. I work in the Professional Licensure department. So I am a Government worker and it sure is nice. My "commute" if that is what you call it is only about 10 miles from the house. And it takes me about 10 mins. to get to work once I drop the twins off at the daycare, which is right around the corner from our house. I love it.

I am a little home sick but I am adjusting well to the new area. People here are very friendly. Clint keeps telling me it is because we are in the south. I talk funny to most people here and they know instantly that I am not a native Ar-Kansan. Clint's job is going pretty well. He had to go on a business trip to Dallas already but it was a short over night thing so that wasn't to bad. Plus I like the 25% off we get on everything at Dillard's!

The twins are full of energy. They can now roll over from tummy to back and then from back to tummy. Both girls are getting up on their knees but they can't seem to pick their heavy heads up from the floor to figure out the crawling yet. They are both squealers and sweet Peyton has learned to mimic coughing so she does this everywhere. She gets "sick" all the time and once she hears someone else cough, that is her que to get "sick". It is almost comical!

Mollie seems to be doing well in school. I talk to her at least twice a day on the phone. She is super excited to be Snow White. She has informed me that she needs no wig because her hair is just like Snow White (I think it is a shade to light but Oh Well).

I am still holding off on getting the twins costumes yet. It isn't as though I am not getting them one I really just have to find a place that has something I like.

I have learned how to navigate around this city and must say I feel pretty good when I have to find somewhere I have never gone to before. We are going to go to a Fall Festival this weekend so that should be fun. Boy I miss going to Graves Mountain Lodge with Jennifer and the kids.

Well that is all the news I have from the "big city". Until I talk or see you again, be safe and happy and embrace the day!
