Cutest Bear Cub....ever?

Here is what is going on with us...
We went to Hobbs, NM for an interview last weekend. We didn't get the job, but it was a good experience and gave us some pointers for the next time. Here is what happened while I was packing for our trip! This is the fancy basket in our hotel room from the company and Rob all spiffed out for his interview! It was exciting!
We are leaving tomorrow to go to Carlsbad, NM for an interview. We are excited and hopeful.
We also might be going to an interview in Lewiston, ID next weekend. And, then Rob is done with his rotation, so we don't really have a clue what we are going to do after that yet. It is an interesting feeling to not know where you will be in 2.5 weeks.

We are excited for Rob to be so close to being done with school. It is pretty exciting. We have probably gotten calls/e-mails from 125+ companies and recruiters. We are doing our best to follow up on which ones we think might be good. It is very overwhelming, but there are a lot of opportunities out there...we are just checking our options and doing the whole process.
Sorry for the blurriness---our camera is dying.

We took Lily to a trunk-or-treat tonight as a little bear cub. She LOVED it.

Random Thoughts

I am feeling random....so here are some random thoughts for your Thursday along with some random hilarious photos of my goober. I promise she doesn't always look so rag-a-muffin-ish.

We are all suffering from colds in my house. I am just hoping and praying that it doesn't turn into a flu type of sick. Not fun. There are no sick days for moms.

We have applied for 20+ jobs and gotten 30+ calls from all over. Rob is going to have a few phone interviews tomorrow and try to figure out what to do from here. It is exciting and very nerve-wracking. Trying to decide where to move for our future is a hard one to make.

Rob only has 5 weeks left of his rotation here in Cottonwood. Then, our future is very up in the air. It is making me nervous to not really know where we might be in 6 weeks time. Weirdness.

Lily is a huge crack-up. She runs everywhere and is into everything all the time. She cracks herself up a lot. She loves to play on the couch and on our bed. We got her some playhouse balls and she loves getting in a box and playing with those balls. It is weird to think we have a little person running around our house all the time. Newborns don't stay newborns for long.

My cute child

I have a Dream

I have a dream...that one day....

I will be able to get up when I want to...not when Lily does.
Rob will have a job and we will be settled.
we will be living in a house instead of stinky apartments.
I will get to live closer to my family.
I will be able to afford to buy new clothes...especially since all of my current ones are too big.
I will finally feel settled.

More of Lily's Birthday

We took Lily to Build-A-Bear after graduation for her to pick out her birthday present from us. I had my doubts that she would even care, but boy howdy was she into it. It was super cute! We walked along the wall of animals and she reached out and grabbed this one.
She helped push the button to fill her up.
She liked giving it a bath!
One happy customer! Happy Birthday Lily!


While Rob's family was here we celebrated her birthday again, so we went and got her a little cake from the grocery store to see if she would eat it , but again no luck on the cake!
Her favorite toy of the day....the tablecloth!

My hubby graduated!

My husband graduated on Friday! We still have 11 more weeks of his rotation before he can truly get his diploma, but they let him walk and pretend! I am SO proud of him for this accomplishment! It has been a long time coming and he has worked VERY hard. It was a great graduation! Afterwards we went to Cheesecake Factory with his fellow Graduate and buddy Jason and his family. Then we went to Jason and Chelsa's apartment for cake and ice cream! It was a great day for a great celebration!
PS...I don't miss the heat in the Phoenix valley! It was 115 on Graduation Day!

Lily Birthday

Lily's birthday was on Thursday! She had a great day full of gifts, playgrounds, and an attempt at eating a cupcake.....I guess she isn't a cake girl! She would only eat the raspberries!
