A LOT OF CONTEMPLATION GOING ON!!!

So there is a lot going on in our lives right now! I have 2 interviews tomorrow and both look promising. They are both way out west by pellissippi Parkway! One i know for sure is very promising bc they talked to my boss back home at my moms and he highly recommended me and they are good friends with him so that place is looking great! Thing is is from where we live now it would take about 45 mins to get to work! so judging how tomorrow goes we have been talking and if i get one of those jobs we will be moving! We will find an apartment close to where justin works so it is less travel for both of us resulting in actually saving money on gas than we are doing now! and i would be filling up a lot more if we stayed here! 

Another thing i have been searching today is daycares! Because i dont want to end her to any day care i want her to be challenged! so i have been researching daycares and pre-schools close to where i could be working! 

So if everything goes great and i have a job then some big changes will be taking place! 

Justin is now working 4pm-4am which stinks! but we will get by hopefully it wont be for too long!!

So if you dont care to please be thinking and praying for us as we will need it in the next few weeks if i get one of the jobs! If i dont then we have nothing to worry about and we are back to square one in trying to find a job for me! This has been a long processes and i am ready for it to be over! Looking for a job since march and having no luck is starting to get to me! 

We will still be going to Chilhowee Hills so i will not leave all of you there:) One good thing is i will be so much closer to Turkey Creek:) WOOHOO for shopping!! haha

anyways just wanted to update you all! Hope everyone is having a great week!

Love, 

Kristen Justin and miss Lexi

DollyWood!

Tuesday we went to Dollywood! My  Mother in law Got us a season pass so we went and took our cousin Tanner. We got there a little late in the afternoon so we didnt get to stay too long! But this summer they are having a Kidsfest so we got to see the Kratt Brothers on their Smokey Mountain Adventure!! Lexi and Tanner LOVED it!!!! the animals were very fascinating to lexi especially the python! after we watched the show we grabbed a bite to eat and then went to find the rides! Lexi isnt quite tall enough to get on some rides so she got to ride the elephants, the piggys, the bees and the ducks and her favorite the carasel!!! she loved riding that horsery round and round. Then we rode the Dollywood Express by the time the train was over it was just about 8 so the park was closing:( so we left and went over to aunt midgies house where she cooked us a lovely dinner and then we headed home! Lexi passed out in the car but she enjoyed herself and had a great day!! we will definately be going back soon!!!!! Here are a few pictures from her riding the rides!!! Momma i cant wait for you to come up to see lexi at Dollywood!!!! MISS YOU!

Attempts at Potty Training

This week i have decided to start going at it full force and getting lexi into some big girl panties!! Yesterday was a good day, she only peed in her panties once and i decided it might be better to just keep her naked so i did and then she peed on the floor once but overall yesterday was very sucessfull with lots of trip to the potty!! She has been pooping in the potty for about a month or two now! Today was a different story though:( She has peed a lot and it has just bee rough but tomorrow is a new day and we are not giving up yet!!! But she was playing yesterday naked and put on my high heels so i figured it was a good opportunity to get some good butt shots:) so enjoy:)

Swimming!

Yesterday we went to Aunt Blue's house to welcome Hannah home from her windy gap camp and congratulate her for her wonderful and godly work she had done the past few weeks! It was also her birthday celebration so we all swam and had a good ole time!! Lexi my little trooper and i wish i would have taken pictures of this but she was jumping off the side of the pool into my arms and she went under water about 30 times yesterday!!! i was so proud of her!!! she is a little trooper and she loves to swim so i am happy about that! 

This week wont be too busy i am still looking for a job so hopefully one will come into play but we shall see!

Lexi and Me are going to dollywood tomorrow so i will be sure to take pictures of her if she rides rides by herself! i may have to get on with her but we will take pictures! they are having a kids fest so we will get to see animals and maybe get to catch the veggietales live!! so we are excited about that!!!

I think that is all for this week but will post again soon!
