Bedtime and a floor! :)

BRENNEN:
Ok I have to tell this story about Brennen last night. As some of you know, we are living with my Mom until our house is finished. This means we went from our 3 bedroom, 2 living area home...to my old bedroom! It's so funny because I told my mom one night as we were trying to figure out where to put furniture: "It will be just like when I was living here.....except instead of a dresser there will be a crib..." That was strange! Anyway we all sleep in one room which has totally spoiled Brennen. He's become almost too big to rock comfortably as we are VERY cramped. So we have started putting him in our bed and lying down with him while we read and sing and then put him in his crib to go to sleep. His thing is that he wants you to lie in there with him until he falls asleep though. Last night we are cuddled up reading together and I was under our blankets and he had his favorite one over him. After the 4th book and a couple of songs I told him that it was time to turn on his music and get in his bed. Brennen flopped back on the pillow, put his fingers to his lips, and told me to "Shhhh".
I pulled my blankets back and suggested this again. Brennen sat up, pushed me back onto the pillow, covered me back up, laid against the other pillow, put his fingers to his lips, and told me "Shhhh". We go through this again. The 3rd time I hop out of bed and tell him it's time to get in his own bed. Brennen replies: "Momma go night night" and pats my pillow. It was the cutest thing ever! Anyway I picked him up and laid him in his crib and we eventually went to sleep...... I don't know what I'm going to do when we move!!!!

HOUSE:
We go out to our building site last night not expecting to see anything due to the electric company STILL HAS NOT HOOKED UP OUR ELECTRIC!!!!!!!!!! (it's been like 3 weeks since we requested it!!!!!) But low and behold, we have our subfloors down!!!! I know most people are yawning right about now, but I love seeing something happening out there!

WORK:
A couple of things in my life have made me stop and say "Man I should write a book about that!" The first of which was trying to get a wedding put together...but that's another story. Lately it has been my job. This job has taught me that people will say and do anything. Just TODAY I have a client in my office for what we call a re-determination interview. An alert comes up that her husband is incarcerated. I question her about it, stating where and the incarceration date. She looks me right in the eye and tells me that he was never there (it was out of state) and that he is home as we speak!!!! After she leaves I call the jail that is listed and they state that yes he was incarcerated on that date but did not see a release date. They would have someone get back with me. In the meantime I call the client to confront her on this and get her machine.....The message you ask? "Honey I'm sorry I missed your call...>I miss you so much baby. Call back! I can't wait til you can come home!!!!!" Can you believe this?????? Well about an hour later I get a call from the jail and sure enough: HE'S STILL THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am amazed by people. Sometimes it's their ability to lie...other times it's their sheer stupidity....
