Well, we are in our new home. At least this is where we are staying. We have so much to do to get it to where I want it. I want to finally live in a house that has places for things. A house I am not embarrassed to have people over, I hope that time comes soon. Of course I have a lot of training to do as far as getting others who live here to do their part. We all need to pitch in if we are going to have a nice place to live.
So far we have met some really nice new neighbors. Rebecca has a friend, Morgan, who comes over to get Rebecca to play outside with her frequently. It is so nice. I have decided to be block captain. I hope I can do it well. I need to get my first introduction flyer out and put together something about National Night out.
Rebecca has developed quite the attitude and smart mouth. I am not sure how to get her to stop. I hope it is just a short lived phase. My patience can wear thin with her. I sometimes wonder what happened to my sweet little girl who always listened and did the right thing. The one who behaved no matter where you were. We have had to develop a new shopping rule to get things under control in public. If either child is not in a shopping cart or stroller then they must be holding a hand at all times. No exceptions. I am hoping this will help them to learn to behave nicely in stores so I can go out to stores again without getting dirty looks when my child is screaming and crying or I am constantly nagging them to stop something.
Okay, that is it for now. I need to go finish getting ready for swim lessons today. I hope we start having some nicer weather sometime so Rebecca can start practicing and maybe learn faster. I feel like she is at a bit of a standstill.
