holy stuff!!..:)

ok so its been a while!! :) all is well here in Texas! things have been moving along steadily and we're hoping that they continue! we've been doing a lot of playing..:D and its been great but unfortunately the vacation is over and now its crunch time!! :)
we got here the firstish of august, and got reacquainted with the malls..:), and what not. we got season passes to six flags, so we've been going quite a bit lately.. my family was able to come down and visit for the baby's blessing! so thankfully my dad and most of my brothers were able to stand in, it was nice! my (big) little brother camber finally got to meet kaylee and cayden, i was very happy to discover the girls were not in the least bit shy around grammy and grampa! or any of my siblings they were so excited! and even now nikoy will walk up to me and say she wants them to come back again.. so yeah..:) we are hoping to be able to go to Utah for Christmas! it all depends on jobs and stuff.. cory is currently working for car max, its the company we bought our car from (we'll get to the car, hold your horses...) but he works basically as an inventory guy, he does all the inspections and paper work for any car coming or going, and its only temporary until he gets settled into the police academy. he has a few tests he has to pass before they'll allow him to join so hopefully (pray for us...) we aren't worried about the fit test because he's had to do fit tests for years in the military and the police departments test aren't much different.. so i have no doubt he'll do well, but you never really know do you? so anyways, i am still in the search for a job, :) although the i may have gotten one at the Disney store which I'm not sure whether or not its a good idea for me to work there.. i may not ever bring home a paycheck..:D any who.. the girls are adjusting well, they are beginning to wonder when were going home to Germany, and we keep having to remind them that we're not going back to Germany.. the baby has more then doubled his weight! he's almost 14 pounds!and he's such a chunk we cant get enough of him.. he has FINALLY started sleeping a little more, he eats around 11 PM and then sleep till about 6 am so theres a few hours for me to sleep!! my birthday came and went.. Cory got me the new Nintendo DS i, and a few games, although i LOVE the camera feature on it! i didn't even know these things existed until a few weeks ago ( Germany is still in the dark ages....) but i have already conquered Zelda and the phantom hour glass, (go me!!) and i am currently enjoying the peace of Sim animals..:) no still no pet foxes yet....grrrrrrr...anywho.. we also went out to the tower of America in downtown San Antonio and we got to sit in a window seat and watch the city as the tower slowly spun around it was awesome!! and the steaks are AMAZING..i do plan on going back..:) any who.. nothing else really to report all is well, we are doing great just living day to day... we love you all and hope to see you soon!! enjoy few pics on me..:) trust me there would be HUNDREDS, this isn't my computer, and i don't know the software well enough to edit any of the pictures yet,,, I'm working on it..:)

I'll have to get another updated picture, yeah this was only 3 weeks ago.. but he's so much chunkier now!! its so cute..

heres my charmer.....soo cute!!

see i cant get enough! he's just so cute... and he's getting so big! he's supposed to stay little and he's not cooperating!

heres the girls at six flags, the sun was bright and now matter how much coaxing and yelling i did, nikoy wouldnt even open her eyes long enough for a click of the camera, so oh well..:)

(in order left to right..:D) kaylee, sierra (my little sis) nikoy and sammy (my little brother:)on a fun little ride, its like a mini rocket for those who have been to lagoon, they really enjoyed it..

leaving the park we bumped into tweety, and had to say good bye... awwwwwwe.. anywho.. i have so much more i want to share but i think i have done enough for now.. i will post more, but it may not be until later on this week, or weekendish..:) anywho LOVES!!

Texas.

well we are safe and sound in texas, its been hectic, we haven't had a moments peace to call any of our friends, i finally have a minute to sit and relax, and I'm blogging....go figure..:D. anywho.. we are doing all right..considering. i've applied for more jobs this past week then i have my entire life.. we are doing everything we can to get out of cory's moms house. we are to used to being on our own, not having anyone to answer too, this whole sharing lives is driving us mad. so we are looking into a couple of town homes to rent. we've decided texas is more then likely NOT a permanent thing. neither of us much like it.. its to confusing here. we'll see how it pans out though.. hopefully one of the jobs i've applied for will pan out and we'll get to move to our own place.. we can go now if we want, but without a source of income no one will rent to us, cory will probably not be able to do the police thing till novemberish, so we're looking at fourish months that i need to work enough to support us.. it could possibly be six, so we'll find out.. anywho.. we got here and i am HAPPY to announce that i butched the crap out of my hair... i donated 11 and a half inches to locks for love..i now have a short croppy do, and (don't laugh) i now have bangs.. i know i vowed never again, but its recently dawned on me the actual size of my enormous forehead..:) so bangs were a must until my self esteem is back up a bit more.. Cory's slowly going crazy, its going to be months before his plans pan out and he's starting to feel impatient and boxed in.. which is why im looking for work, maybe if i can find a good enough job, he can concentrate on school.. the girls dont have a clue as to whats going on.. they think we are on vacation.. nikoy is getting excited to go back to germany, because she misses her friends. i 've had to tell her more then once, we'll probably never be in germany again... but she doesnt want to hear.. baby shaun is growing so fast, he's just over 10 pounds already, and he eats like and elephant.. anywho.. theres really nothing else to report.. i do miss my germany friends and im ready to make some new texas friends. but alas...the time.... there is just not enough of it.. anywho.. wish us luck! it may be a while before i do a new post, my family is coming to visit me soon and it'll be after that that i post so.. yeah.. anywho.. love you all wish us luck!!
