we are still here!!! it has been a long time since our last post (especially for those of you who had gotten into the routine of a daily update for the last 6 months!)

Things are a bit crazy, but shoudl settle down next week (i have my OB/GYN boards next monday, so i am spending every free second with my face in my books).

VERY brief synopsis of events over the last week:

1. we are slowly unpacking the 1 billion boxes that we moved out of the storage unit and into the new house.
2. we found a nanny!!!!! after several weeks of very intense (and stressful) searching, and MANY ups and downs, some very amazing things fell into place, our nanny-prayers were answered!!!! More to come on that....but we are thankful and excited!!!
3. father's day rocked (even though it involved a VERY sad farewell to our dear friends, The Pho for Five Gang...although technically this should be Pho for Six, or I guess Pho for Four...oh geez, it's too hard to keep up with these guys, and whose really counting, anyway!)
4. Captain Stickley was promoted to Major Stickley in a very eventful ceremony, completely dominated by a full fledged fit by a certain 3 year old whose name rhymes with Lova and starts with an N.

my brain is pretty much fried from spending the day surrounded by pregnant women, the evening surrounded by 3 year olds, and the night surrounded by OB/GYN textbooks. The girls have definately noticed that I haven't been playing with them as much as usual, and I am studying a lot. This evening Nova said..."Mom can you hand me that Snow White Book? I need to get to my studying".
