What a week so far!

Its wednesday today, and what a past two days it has been! Shay and I have been sickly with this runny nose sore throat (but not coughing!) thing. I"m thinking i'm about 2 days behind Shay because she's doing great today and I'm...blahh...like she has been. I'm nervous Kade has a little bit of it too. Just a stuffy nose. I have to suck it out with the bulb and he hates it! Zack runs to a school and seems to avoid all the germs of our house. Lucky him. Shay has been a stinker this week. She's saying No quite a bit now and cries ALL THE TIME. PMS starting early...I've been complaining about it to Zack, who didn't believe me, then yesterday she showed him her true colors. It caught him off guard. We thought we'd escaped this phase, but its here in all its glory. She still has moments of being darling though. Yesterday morning I was laying in bed (totally exhausted from the night with Kade), and she walked in with two little Kit Kat bars. I told her she couldn't have any until after breakfast. She climbed up on my bed and generously handed me one saying, "here mom, two, I share." I couldn't resist! We shared our chocolate in bed together. We've had some major potty training issues this week and we're kind of stumped on why and what to do. She was doing so good, we're not really sure what happened! Crossing our fingers that things turn around soon in that area! Kade is a handful for someone so small. I only say that because I dont remember having this much night time stress with Shaylie. I"m up most the night and dont really know how I manage to function during the day. On Monday, zack was nice enough to take Shay out and about while I laid down. However, that was cut short what *someone* decided it was time to eat. He's growing like a weed and I'm sure thats because he eats constantly. I just keep telling myself that its helping me lose weight faster! I did start my exercise stuff on Monday and I'm quite sore. I did the Ab Ripper on Monday (P90x) and tuesday I did Zumba. I also started my new birth control (which I'm actually quite nervous about!) and almost forgot it yesterday. But i'm super paranoid about getting pregnant again. My mom says I need a surprise in there, mainly because I"m so Fussy about this stuff. But I'd like to think that my 'surprise' was being farther a long with Kade than we originally thought!

On the Job front, I spent most of the day yesterday on the computer looking for jobs for Zack. I found 28 which he will be applying for today when he gets home from Student Teaching (even I give him home work!). I'm still crossing my fingers for that job in Star Valley Wyoming though. It turns out Zacks University supervisor has connections up there so Zack called him yesterday to talk to him about it. Turns out the 'connection' was right there with him! They were doing something so they called Zack back about 10 minutes later. The 'connection' (who I only know as John) talked with Zack for a bit, getting to know him and why he want to work up there and all that fun stuff. I guess he used to work on the board and knows a bunch of people. He told Zack he'd call them that night and put in a good word. I was ecstatic! He also called the District to see if he had all his application stuff in and they said he was good to go that we'd know by friday if they wanted to interview with him again! I was so giddy about it! I"m trying not get excited but...how can you not?! Kind of scary that things are actually happening!! I of course had to tell my mom all about what was happening and shay said that providence was at work, we agree! Zack Said he "suddenly" had the thought to call his supervisor...how cool is that!? So glad I have a husband is in tune enough to recognize divine intervention :) He'll totally done Student teaching in two days! I think I'm more excited than he is!
