So the most exciting news to post since I last updated is that I am a full fledged attorney now. There are no more hoops to jump through, no more whipping posts to be strapped to. I paid my dues, and was sworn in at the Idaho Supreme Court. I can now appear in court without any caveats or explanations. It feels good.
In other news, Katy and I are looking for a house. We really don't NEED one at the moment. We have a place to live, my parents have been really good about not making us pay rent while we are trying to get our feet under us. We're right here by my parents, so if we need someone to watch the kids on a moments notice, my mom usually saves the day. So we are in a good position to low ball a bunch of people on their homes and hope we get lucky. If we don't, then we just move on.
We're working on getting a short sale home right now that needs a little TLC. It's a beautiful home in Meridian, Idaho, just outside of Boise. Its a little closer to work than I am now. Probably about 30 minutes closer. If you want to see a picture of it, click over the link to Katy's blog, she has posted a picture of the outside. We don't post pictures of the inside yet, it isn't quite as fabulous. We'll post pictures after we fix it, if we end up getting it.
Soren is doing pretty well at going to the bathroom on his own. Of course he is still having accidents, but he gets better every day.
Kaydence is trying to be good, but sometimes she forgets (I got that line from some kids book I read to the kids). I have to get on to her about hitting Soren. She likes to do that. I told her that Soren is a boy, and he is going to grow up, and he is going to get back at you and really hurt you. You better be nice to him. She doesn't seem to get it. She keeps whacking him.
Katy is getting into the whole house hunting thing. The last house she took pictures of all the things wrong with it, and wrote a summary up to send the bank justifying we shot them such a low offer. Maybe she should be real estate agent or something. She might need to get a second job to pay for all the repairs we are going to have to make to this home (IF we get it of course). Anyways, thats my shot gun approach of updating you all. Hopefully as I become more comfortable with my job I'll have more time to write on my blog. For now, shotgun posts may be the norm.
