What a week!

This is the job from..... okay, well we will just say it is never ending. Just when Eric thinks they have things worked out they get another task thrown at them. I do understand that this has been a very valuable learning experience for him. I just wish he could have learned it over a few jobs and not all at once. He and Doug have worked so hard and we thought he would get a bit of a break when they passed the state inspection and he did for about a week. Then it all came crumbling down! :) He has been working until 11 or later for about a week and a half now. They were finishing up the architect's punch list today and the new Holly Hills Psychiatric Hospital will be open on Monday morning! Yeah! Somehow the closer we get to the opening of the hospital the more work Eric and Doug seem to accumulate. They are now in charge of hanging the pictures on the wall. Really?? I thought they were building the hospital not decorating it. Anyway, it is almost over...i hope. We were suppose to hear where we were moving yesterday but just like our luck sometimes, no one called. Still no news today. Maybe Monday. We were hoping to move as close to Tuesday as possible. That will be the last two week break that i have in doctor's visits so it would allow for a few days to visit each family and then get moved. The longer they wait the less time to visit. The kids had their gymnastics today. I am really going to miss their teachers. The kids love it but we will find another program. I am thinking next week will be a busy week (if we find out where we are moving). I will try and keep you posted.

Ella's funny:
We eat at Chick-fil-A every Friday in between the kids classes. Today, there were two other little black boys in the play area with Ella and John. On the way back to the gym this is what she said " Mom there was a little boy in the playground with me and his face was brown and he had a little brother too. His brother's face was brown and so was his mom's. We climbed all the way up to the car and i drove and then he drove. That is just what we did. He asked me what my name was and i said Ella and then i told him i had to go and he said where and i said back to my gymnastics class. I told him we eat there when we have gymnastics so he can come back then and fortunately the boy with the brown face is my new best friend." I love that Ella loves to make friends with everyone....and that she tells them our schedule. :)
She also thinks that the bigger my belly gets the more i look like Santa. I think she thinks that is a compliment.

Jack's funny:
Jack continues the think that there is a duck in our ceiling that lives in the vent where the air comes out. No matter how many times we try to explain the difference in a duct and duck he still thinks there is a duck up there. Anyway, now when he walks through the upstairs he will ocassionally step on a squeaky part of the floor. This causes him to stop, go back, find the squeak and insist that there is now a duck under the floor too. It must be the baby duck. Well, of course!
