slacker!!!


okay so i've been slacking and haven't posted on here for a long time! sorry for all of you who have now lost interest. matt's laptop completely broke (hope it wasn't me!) and that's the computer that had all our pictures and files on it ... so i still have some pics on our camera, but i had just gone through all the pics on the laptop and condensed everything and erased the ones from our camera that were on the laptop. so i still have some pics, but it's a little sad how much we rely on these stupid comps! but now i've figured a way to hook up the camera to our desktop. me and matt have been looking at houses and getting excited about finding one, until we really started looking and found out that most houses in our area are short sales (preforclosures) that might take 6 months + to close on. the whole reason we might be able to afford a home is if we can get the $8000 tax credit for some padding in our bank account. so it's been kinda frustrating because we have to close by dec. 1st of this year to get that tax credit amount. so we'll see if it happens, if not we've both learned a lot already about the process so when we do actually find one that will work we'll be ready.

kylee still has her little helmet on and it's getting quite annoying. she's had it for 2 1/2 months now and i've seen a drastic change from before! it's looking much much better. but i imagine to get the best results she'll need it for at least another 2-3 months. it is sooo hot here already, i can't imagine always having my head covered in cast-like material! poor baby. she's also teething (i say that whenever she's grumpy ...) but i think she might really be this time, but i can't feel a thing yet on those gums. she's not crawling, but she rolls over and can push herself backwards with her arms. she still hates tummy time. but if i let her play with my ipod touch she's good for about 20 mins on her tummy. what expensive taste our baby has! we're in trouble already ...

matt's about to start another school year at BSU, hopefully he will have his criminal justice degree in just about two years (at this rate, 3 classes a semester and working full time) he has early morning classes (starting at 7:40 am!!!) and one night class.

we just came back from visiting my stepmom and stepfamily (well, currently ex-stepmom and family, being recently divorced from my dad this past december :( ) in vermont at the lakehouse. it was beautiful and we had a lot of fun. we even survived the plane ride with kylee! i was really worried about that ... but matt took her basically the whole 5 hours there and 5 hours back.

i'm not doing much of anything, other than getting ready to move to a house (maybe) the more i think about the more stressed i get ... it's such a big thing to do right now, or ever i guess. i'm getting excited to start teaching piano lessons again like i did throughout high school. i'm going to teach at a piano studio in eagle (still working on that tho) and have family members (anyone wanna volunteer? haha) watch her during those few hours a week. i already have recital halls reserved and evertyhing. so wish me luck in that aspect!

enjoy some of these cute pics that are more recent from the last post.
