This weekend has been fun but tiring. We had a kids birthday party for George at Wild Air in Appleton. Wild Air is a giant facility that is full of inflatable slides, bounce houses & obstacle courses for kids. It was fun to have George & 7 other kids (and thankfully their parents) play for […]
The past week has been a whirlwind of a week. Matt & I have been keeping a secret (no, not pregnant)…..but are have the go ahead to share the good news. Matt has been offered (and accepted) a new position! He will be serving as the Asst. Director for Budget & Retail Operations at Reeve […]
This week started with some exciting developments for me professionally. Due to some other staff changes I have been offered (and happily accepted) an Interim Assistant Director for Operations position. It is a position that is very similar to work I have done previously at UW Green Bay but this one comes with additional personnel […]
This past weekend Matt was busy working the annual Oshkosh Placement Exchange where tons of housing (and some other) professionals flood Oshkosh and campus interviewing and trying to fill open positions. Seeing Matt would be busy with OPE I decided to visit my parents. Actually, we had planned to get together to celebrate Dad’s years […]
It has been a bit of a long week with sick children. It started with George staying home for Monday & Tuesday because of fever and ended with Stuart coughing and stuffy nose. In between we were tired…..I was very tired. This too shall pass…. This weekend we are in Chicagoland….John was celebrating his 27th […]
It has been a bit of a crazy week and it is more difficult to post during the week…so this morning I’ve got a little cup of coffee and stealing some time to post about our week. George has become a roller coaster of emotions & behavior. This past week at school he scrapped his […]
Apparently we have monsters in our apartment. George has taken care of saying “Go away MONSTERS” and all but one has left. He informed us that there is a friendly little monster who is green (mama’s favorite color)and that it is ok that he stays around. In addition to that G has enjoyed his little […]
This past Monday classes started at UWO and both Matt & I are in full swing with our jobs again. We have found that it is even more important for us to stay aware of each other’s schedules now that we have two kids. I was a bit worried about the pick up and drop […]
Today is the last day of my maternity leave. I look around our apartment & realize that the time ‘off’ did not result in a super organized or clean living environment. It did not result in me having dinner ready each night (Matt does most of the cooking). I have taken 10 weeks off of […]
George has started his tenure in the 3 year old room. His first day went well and we are hopeful that this continues! He did however jump into a huge puddle of water & get drenched…but I know some adults that couldn’t resist the urge either. George has been having a tough time staying in […]
