I say I guess to updating my blog because well, not much has happened. Lets see... We are still living in Hillsboro. My kids are still alive and growing. Zac is still working on getting into the Navy but of all things, having government help, WIC and Oregon Trail, is stopping the waiver from going through.
They want to know exactly how much they give us is WIC. That is hard to do because the prices on things change all the time. I mean if milk was $100 then WIC would still cover it, so it isn't accurate. Also they want an amount that we get on the Oregon Trail card. Sounds easy right? NOT! For whatever reason the amount changes monthly with no notice of why it is changing. And I can't get a hold of anyone to answer my questions. So either I accidently keep giving them the wrong phone number to call me back at or they don't speak English, and since they work for the government, I am going with they don't speak English.
Zac is going to school full time which is awesome for a few reasons. First reason-He is getting an education that will hopefully help him get a better job. Second reason-He is enjoying it and making new friends, which he needs. And third and my favorite, he is gone a lot!
Now to most people that would sound mean. But what most people don't know is that he works from home. I see him ALL the time and because he is home my house is also dirty ALL the time. He isn't the cleanest person so because that 8 hours normally spent away from home are now spent at home, that gives him and extra 8 hours a day to mess up the house with the kids. Since it is always dirty, I can't get my self to constantly run around cleaning up after everyone. So my house has gone WAY down hill. It is majorly depressing. But he went to school yesterday and I almost got the place cleaned up to almost not caring if someone came over. He has been home all this morning and now it is messed up again! But he is leaving in a few hours so I might get it cleaned up again just in time for him to come home and mess it up.
Ethan has started going to nursery which is so great! Kiersten is pretty much potty trained. She goes potty in the "big girl potty" everywhere but at home. I can put underwear on her and take her anywhere and she will be just fine asking to go potty. But at home she just pee's whenever and wherever she wants. Any tips would be appreciated.
I have found a new hobby that I am embarrassed about so I am not going to share. I think it's fun, a waist of time but fun. I guess this will let me see if anyone actually reads this, hehe. I doubt it so I who cares right, lol.
Anyway, thats my life at the moment. :)

Thanks for updating. :P I check your blog every once in a while to see if you have posted anything.
I'm glad that Zac is going to and enjoying school. And that it gives you a chance to have one less to clean up after.
As for your WIC issue, maybe you can save up a month's worth of receipts to give to the Navy to say, "Here, this is how much we received from WIC last month."
And I am curious about your new hobby. If you don't want to tell me here, email me.
What's the hobby?!
I'm reading - want to know the hobby too! :)
