So I tried to go clothes shopping for the kids today. I went to this kids thrift store that I like first but nothing really caught my eye today, but then again I didn't really get much of a good look because my son just wanted to play with the toys which were only right around the corner from the section we had to be in lol. So after weeding through the girls stuff I moved on to try and find a couple shirts for my son but I barely got to look at even 5 shirts before he started to wiggle trying to get away. The store doesnt have carts so I couldnt put him in one =/ So after that I figured I'd try ross as a new one just opened up not to far from our place but they really didn't have much in there yet. Almost bought some shoes for the baby but decided against it. Their carts don't have a buckle and my son kept standing up, I put him in the back and he tried to climb out
Can't go shopping alone with that kid apparently lol. Oh well another day another store I suppose. In the mean time I will just shop online for good deals lol.
Didnt see much at target or walmart last time I was there, and recently went to burlington (got a really cute bumblebee bathing suit for the baby for next summer) but maybe next I will take a look at JC penny outlet they usually have some good stuff there for good prices
Hope everyone is having a good weekend! Getting anxious to hear back from the police department as to whether my husband's application was accepted or not. We should know by the 30th (well the week of the 30th I guess) so within the next two weeks I suppose. I really don't see why they wouldnt accept him, especially with his military and security experience, I just don't know how they will feel about all the job hopping even though he did list the reason for leaving each of those jobs (which was mostly due to lack of work/pay) So never left on bad terms..They were expecting alot of people to apply though and we don't know how many positions are avaliable. Seriously crossing my fingers right now though. I mean yeah he has the nursing thing to fall back on if this doesnt work out, and our plans will then stay the same but more money quicker and benefits for the whole family..that would be amazing! Will let you all know when we find out
If his application was accepted all he has to do is pass a written and fitness test with a good score (this is competitive) in order to get into the police academy. He can already do the minimum requirements of what they want but he's been going running alot (not every day but pretty much) trying to get faster so he has a better chance. I think they have to run a mile and a half in like 11 minutes or something like that and he wants to do it in 9 and 1/2. I know I wouldnt even come close haha but he was able to do 3 miles in about 18-20 minutes in the military (so pretty much 3, 6 minute miles). He's got this in my opinion, its just a matter of getting through the application process and weeding out the competition
The only down fall to this is if he does get into the academy he's likely to miss the birth of our daughter.. which doesn't bother me too much I'm just afraid of going into labor on my own (assuming she does come before my induction, whenever that will be, havent gotten a firm date yet, dr will wait until 38/39 weeks) though my mom and dad both live and work close by and I know either one of them would take me if need be.
Ok.. I need to stop writing novels here lol..
