Crazy

This is horrible. I know. I'm a horrible person for not updating in OVER A MONTH!! wow, I can't believe it's been so long.


Waco has been great. I have so much to update and many pictures to show. 

I will start with my class. I started the year with 6  4th graders. But within the first 2 weeks of school, I received 6 more. So, I am finally up to the big 12. They are great kids, very talkative, but respectful and ready to learn.

Josh has also been doing really well. He's enjoying his classes although they are getting more and more difficult.

Shelby is massive! She's probably gained an additional 6-10 pounds within the last month. She's still just as sweet and just as hyper. And... she has a friend living with her right now :) 

Just 3 nights ago, Josh and I couldn't sleep because there was a "bird" making noises outside of our bedroom the entire night. The next day after school, Josh hunted down the noise and found an abandoned kitty inside the neighbor's fence. Long story short, the kitty is staying with us for now. She is super cute, about 3/4 of Josh's palm, and probably 4-5 weeks old. 

Josh and I have been thinking about a name for her. So far, we have (I have) seriously considered "Cookie" and "Pumpkin" but have both been shut down. We are hoping to get her the shots she needs, and then we can see about her living arrangements. 

Shelby and the kitten are surprisingly friends. They even play together. It's cute.   :)

I will load pics to my computer and update the blog with pics from the last month!!

Hey! I'm so glad to hear things are well. I have been eager to hear how you and Josh are doing.

It is very exciting that you now have a kitten. How cute. :) And I can only imagine how big Shelby is! 6-10 more pounds?!?!?! Wow!!! Good thing you are living in a house now!!!

I'm really glad that your teaching is going well. I have been thinking about you a lot. I'm also glad that Josh is doing well with classes. I bet they are getting more difficult, but with Josh being as smart and amazing as he is, I bet he is doing really well.

By the way...tell Josh I really like the name pumpkin for the kitten ;).

I really hope to talk with you soon. I have SO much to tell you. Many new things are now coming up with Josh and I.

I'll talk with you soon!

Love you!

Hi Gilda,

Just trying to contact you and Josh as I lost phone numbers except for Josh's cell. If you get this would you call my cell (817) 271-1691. I had a voicemail from Josh about a leak in the house but cannot contact him.
