My Solution

I've decided that I'm just going to start doing all of my posts on the kids blog. That way it will turn into our family blog. I'll just leave this blog here, so I don't lose any of the posts. Maybe I'll change my mind later, but for now, that's the plan.

Consolidation

I am considering consolidating this blog with the kids blog. I think I would be better at updating if I do so. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to go about doing so yet, as I don't want to loose any of the content from either blog. If anyone has any ideas feel free to leave a comment.

It's Over!

A few weeks ago marked the end of Jeff's law school experience. He's finally finished! It's so nice to finally be all done with school. Now if we could only find a job everything would be great.

Jeff spends his time applying for job after job. Me, I hang out with the children and occasionally clean. I did, however, get all my craft stuff packed up. Wishful thinking that we'd be moving soon I guess. After the craft room was packed up, we moved the kids over there so Bryan could paint the green room.

I've also been going through stuff and getting rid of some of it in preparation for moving. So far we've mostly got rid of clothes. Though we do have some toys bagged up and ready to take to a thrift store. As far as packing goes, we still have a long way to go and have way too much junk. Oh well, such is life.

Valentine's Day

We have two Valentine traditions: Jeff always brings me a bouquet of roses, and Nadia a single rose. Nadia loves this (and I think Finn feels a little left out).  Our other tradition is that Jeff and I switch off on who plans the Valentine's Day date.

This year was Jeff's turn, and while it wasn't in the line of traditional romance I loved it. We celebrated on the 16th, because Jeff had the days mixed up. Don't worry, we discovered the mix up a few days before and decided to just keep the plans the same (though the flowers came on the real Valentines day). Our date was simple. First he took me to a yarn store, and stayed with me for over an hour helping me to choose out yarn without once ever complaining (if that's not love I don't know what is.) He didn't even complain when I got us lost driving out to the store. Next we went to Old Town Spring and walked around looking at the shops. It was fun, but we weren't as impressed as we had hoped to be. We finished it off with lunch. Then it was home to the kids and (for Jeff at least) getting ready for school.
