* After looking for a job in Kingman for two months (with nothing to get excited about), Sean decided to pursue some self-employment options (that he's been thinking about for a while). He is going to start doing some financial planning. He took and passed his test for his license a couple weeks ago. YAY!
* Because of this new venture Sean has been in CA a bunch lately working with my dad (trying to learn all he can about the business).
* We are thinking that we will be moving to CA at some point - we're just not sure when (it depends on what we decide to do with our house: rent or sell, and also how close it gets to the end of the school year for Caelan). We're pretty sure we'll be there by summer.
* Caelan is becoming quite the reader in school. She also started dance classes again (just once a week, but she loves it).
* Ben is loving the computer (ABC websites) recently. He is our little runner - loves to run all over the house and the yard. He has great form too (arms bent and pumping - it's awesome).
* Meg has decided that she LOVES to take off her clothes. I'm starting to wonder if she is ready to start potty training. I'm just not so sure I'm ready yet....
* Nathan is growing so much. He is very social these days and doesn't really like to be by himself. He has the greatest smiles and laughs. I just want to "eat" him all day.
* I have started watching a little boy (almost two years old) a few times a week. He is a fun addition to the house full.
* With this new kind of work it takes a while for money to be coming in regularly, so I've been trying to be as frugal as I can, and I've been exploring new recipes for the basics: beans, wheat, etc (healthy and cheap).
We're good. It's funny how you think things are going to work out a certain way (for example we thought for sure that we would be here in Kingman for 5 years or more), and then just a short time later everything changes. We don't mind the changes - it makes for a fun ride!

i didnt know your dad was a financial planner? did he always do that?
DONT MOVE BACK TO CA!!!!!!! stay out if you can, especially since you have kids already. im serious. we want to leave SO bad. did you know they just raised income taxes (not to mention that the highest income tax rate kicks in at the lowest threshold), sales tax is going up to about 9% in april and they are doubling the (already more expensive than any state) car licensing fees?
im serious- stay out if you are out already! we want to move to colorado. check it out.
