Visits and Halloween

Well, as you can see I am kind of tired of blogging. Or maybe I'm just plain tired. But at any rate I've been really fortunate to have my mother come visit me for 5 days towards the end of October and then Joel and his mother came last week. To tell you the truth I've been getting the hang of this single mother thing and it isn't as bad as I expected. I love my little munchkins to death. Although there have been numorous occasions where I needed to put myself into time out and have gained a major addiction to caffine, it hasn't been all that bad!

Everything is going well with the house.... we've had 30 viewings. One offer, who then retracted that offer, one that wanted to put in an offer, but couldn't because it was too far away from her job; and hopefully one offer this Saturday for a person who's looked at the house twice already. I guess we'll see....

I really had an amazing time w/ my mom here and now with Joel and his mom. Halloween was fun and lots of carnivals to attend. Gianluca couldn't decide which costume to be, so I think he wore everything out of his costume box every chance he got. Allegra was the most adorable little kitty I've seen. It has been a crazy month, but very fun! Joel and I also got back from NYC recently, so I'll put pics of that up later!

Sorry I haven't called you back yet. I can relate a little bit to the single mom thing as of lately. Also when we were moving back to the states Dan and I lived apart for three months and is sucked! I had two little kids and I was prego with Scarlet. So, I feel you. (especially with the Pepsi addiction.)
So we are in Monterey Ca. right now on vacation and guess what is right across the street from our hotel..."S and L Catering". Do you remember when we came up with our plan to have our own business:"S and L Catering"? I will have to take a picture and blog all about it. So, this is a long comment. Sorry to all that read this.
I love your pictures and your kids are so cute. I hope you move to Utah soon so we can hang out. I can't wait to visit Vernal. Really, I am excited to see the dinos. Love you and I will call you when we get back.
p.s. the mom getting married thing sucked.

I hope that the house will sell for you so you don't have to be single anymore. I did it for a couple weeks...not for me! Hang in there! You're doing a great job and the kids are adorable!!!

Cute pictures Sid! Isn't amazing how you get used to things? I didn't think I would get used to Esteban being gone until 10:00 4 nights a week, but you just learn to deal with things. It was actually hard when he started coming home at a normal time once school was done. I had to actually have the house clean by 6:00! Way to go though with the whole thing. It definitely takes its tole some days.
By the way, are you going to Twilight opening weekend?

I feel your pain with the house selling. I hope that it sells soon for you, and you can get on with everything. You are a tough girl for sticking it out here by yourself. I think I would have went crazy by now.

Great pictures! The make me sad now that there is a definite moving date...:( What am I going to do without you? Well, at least I don't have to really think about it until after Christmas.
