Sick Boy

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I spent the week with a sick baby. Throwing up and diarrhea=( Every night I would wake up covered in one or the other. It was awful. For him and me! I thought he had the flu but never has ran a fever. Then on Saturday I was going to take him to urgent care because it still wasn't any better.  But before I did I looked really good in his mouth and the two top eye teeth are popping threw. The poor boy has the hardest time with teething. He stayed on the sofa for six hours straight. It was so sad. He still isn't 100% but is getting there.  So with Tyler being sick the past 8 days not much has went on. We did get our Christmas stuff up though.

 Now we are back in Kansas. Counting down the days till we move back home. We got three weeks left! Two weeks left in the RV. Then we will move it back home. Then the last week we will stay in a motel. I CAN NOT believe it is this close. I want to jump, scream, cry, throw a party, and well you get the point. I just pray the lord has the perfect job back at home for us. I want the days living on the road to be over with. It has been a long bumpy road.

Happy Thanksgiving

When ever my son decides to wake up. Most of the time around 9 or 10.
{two} do you have a go-to song for karaoke?

It's been to long to even remember if I did.

I have no idea.

Do not mix food. Most foods I don't even like touching on the same plate.

That's hard. I don't know which to pick a cook or a maid.
{ten} when flying, do you prefer the window or aisle seat?

I like the aisle. Which is good because Derek likes the window.

Veggie Tales Live!

 So Tyler absolutely loved the show. His reaction to it was priceless and something that I will never forget.  I am so glad we got to take him. He stood in his seat the whole time. Jumping up and down, dancing, and clapping so hard that he almost knocked me out.  Now he sings all day long. And has started saying BOB. Everything in his jabbering is about Bob. It's really cute.  The show was really cute. But I don't know if anymore kid shows are in my future though. Something about a bunch of kids running wild and parents not doing a thing about just gets to me. I never thought I would see a 6 and under mosh pit. But boy did it come close. There was even kids climbing on stage! It was total craziness. Here is some pictures. I couldn't get any of him watching the show because it was so dark. This one of him is during intermission.

 

How About Iola,KS/Ty-Ty/Me

So after I did all that calling and found us a new place to live, Derek calls. They switched towns.  Of course they did.  So they will be working in a town called Le Roy, KS. But we will be staying in Iola, KS. We will be a little over 2 hours from home. We will be staying in motel for the rest of the week. Then on Saturday after Derek gets out of class we will move the RV down and get things set up.  That is if they don't change there minds again.

So moving on. Tyler. OH Tyler. That boy I think started his terrible twos. He has been testing the waters a bit to much lately. The process of the pacifier is coming along. He only has it at bedtime.  He is all most to the point where he forgets about it. So  I hope it will be gone before to long. He has started saying Ty-Ty which is so cute. But has also starting taking off his cloths:-/ Every time I turn around I am having to get onto him and put his shirt and pants back on. GRRR I don't like it. He love veggie tales. And this weekend we are taking him to see Veggie Tales Live. I can't wait.  I know he is going to love it!

Independence,KS

Is going to be are next stop. We will be moving there tomorrow. I always hate going from a big city to a little rat hole of a town with nothing.  The town has one ran down motel from what the guys say.  If that's how guys describe it you know it can't be pretty. Good thing we have the RV. Lets just hope it makes the trip. I have been searching all day for a KOA park. But there is none in that area. So my days of free cable and wifi on the road may be over. The only good thing about the move is we will be closer to home. Anywhere from two hours or even an hour. Depending where we find a camp ground. I have a list of numbers to call and get info on. I also needing to  be organizing and packing up in the RV for stuff don't dump out everywhere when driving.

Melt Down!?!

I think so. So in the three years of being on the road with Derek's schooling and training I had my first melt down last night. It was awful. I have been able to deal with it all up until the last month before he is done. What is that about? Maybe it is just three years worth of stuff all hit me. I don't know. I do know I want to be home.  These last few weeks have been the worst. The stress is so high right now because of the job.  We will be moving locations sometime this week. But don't have any idea where.  Derek should be done. But they are giving him the run around. They are making him go to class. Even though he has everything done. So when he goes to class he will just be sitting there.  I am so sick of it. It has been three long years of them telling us your moving here and there. Month after month. Year after year. Them being in control of  OUR life. Well I want my life back please. Okay so it hasn't all been bad times. Our family couldn't have bonded and been this close had we been at home.  We would never have experienced half the things we have. It's all really bitter sweet.

Can I Get OFF!?!

I want off of this two year roller coaster=/ The end is so very close and moving back home but yet so far. We have been up down up down. Derek has called and talked to them. But it just seems like they are dragging there feet about it. It is so dumb. We are so ready to be home. It has been so rough these past few months.  To make things worse, Derek has gotten a call from home saying they have a job for him. They don't know how long it will be open though. The hours are perfect. Pay is great. Staying in our house. 15 minute drive to show up for Derek. And the list keeps going. It is so hard to be in the spot we are in. We know Gods will is for us to be back home.  But not being able to be there feels well words can't describe it.  I am finding it harder and harder to hold it together. I see my son starting to suffer in they way we are having to live. Traveling so much is taking a toll on  him. Having to stay in a little RV and not have playing room.  And not getting to spend time with his family. I just want things normal and settled.
