August 2011

Hello Everyone!

August hasn't been too eventful, although weekends have been busy with visting family and friends.


Grandpa Don and Marylin Spent the last weekend in July with us and had a blast being with Annabelle. We visited Old Town, went out to dinner, and went to church at the local high school. We had a good time. Grandpa also talked a lot with us about our future. It was a great learning experience.


The weekend after that Grandpa and Marylin were back but this time at Tim and Char's. We drove down for brunch with the whole Krause Klan. Sianna and Annabelle played with each other, Lauren and Rachel went on a little shopping trip together and of course, Grandpa and Bryant played chess. Later that day we met up with my family down in Long Beach to celebrate my Great Grandparent's Birthdays. We went to Red Robin, and man it was delicious. Annabelle got to meet her Grandpa (My mom's dad) for the first time. Pretty great!

Bryant's surviving work, we will hopefully get over this promotion hump soon and be able to breath a little easier. He is slowly working on College stuff, finding out what he wants to do, where he wants to go to school and what his options are for jobs after getting out of the Marines. Stressful stuff, but the that's the future!


Annabelle has started teething and boy is she fussy! She has her really bad days, (today would be one of them) and then her perfectly happy days. She likes being outside so walks around the complex or playing on her quilt in the grass cheers her up.


I just had an interview yesterday with a couple who has a daughter that's only 3 weeks or so older than Annabelle. They are looking for someone to watch their daughter Mondays through Fridays 9 to 3 (perfect timing to take bk to work and be able to pick him up) and will pay $9 an hour. They also love the idea of me bring Annabelle with me so that their daughter can have a playmate! We will find out Wednesday if I got the job or not. I also got my Etsy site up and running for selling like handmade things I've come up with. the website is www.etsy.com/shop/AnnaBuggieBoutique if you want to check it out =)


Hope everyone is having a good Summer! it's almost over already can you believe it!? Here come the holidays and some more family time!


More updates to come soon!
