Well Walmart FINALLY called back and Mike now has a job. It is working part-time in the produce dept. It is in Centerville which is about a 30 minute drive, but at this point we will take anything that comes our way. Over the past couple of days he has been going to orientation. Apparently working at Walmart isn't as easy as it looks! :p But it has been paid orientation which is good. Mike is making so much more money than he was at his previous job. We are so grateful to our Heavenly Father for this amazing blessing in our lives! Mike also has another job that he is looking at that pays $10/hr installing Christmas lights...so that would be awesome if he could work that into his Walmart schedule!! There have been so many things that have happened since we have been here that have been amazingly beneficial to us. Mike has gotten this job for one thing, medicaid and wic sort of just fell into place once I made the phone calls, we found an awesome doctor, we really enjoy our ward and love the members and the neighbors, and countless other blessings.
This weekend is General Conference! I always love hearing the words of our Prophet and Apostles! But this weekend is also exciting because I get to see Becky and Tara and their significant others :p I haven't seen Tara since Fall Semester 2008. That was a long time ago!! I am just so excited for us to all be together again and enjoy being together! And Mike and Tara will finally get to meet after almost two years of learning of each other. We're all going to hang out Saturday evening I believe, after Priesthood session. Every time I think about this get together I get all excited and giddy like a child!
Well Mike just called me and said that he will be home shortly so I better go get dinner started so that we can go buy more baby stuff tonight! Buying baby stuff has become my biggest obsession in the last month or so. I think this is my urge during the nesting stage...I don't really desire to clean, just to have all the baby things in order and ready for when he gets here. So not having any of the stuff like the bed, car seat and stroller, ya know that kind of stuff is driving me up the wall!!! But Mike promised if I did all my chores today and dinner was mostly ready when he got home, he would take me tonight to go get some of the stuff :D Anyways, now that i have procrastinated even further it is now time to say goodbye for now.
P.S. Reece is going to be moving out here to live with Aunt Elaine as well in the beginning of Nov. So we are also excited to have him here and be a part of our odd but cute little family! :)
