Finally, we are in our new FLAT and on the internet-yippee skippy!!!! As I sit here writing this blog, Rydge is nagging at me to help him with his homework, he has it every night. He is learning so much, I think instead of K when we return, he will be ready for FIRST! Rylan is doing well also, he keeps complaining he is too smart for this class, so I will meet with the teachet yet again tomorrow to check things out! He is a bright boy, we are very proud of how he is doing. It has been really hard on him. He has embraced this adventure as best as he knows how.
We hired a nanny part time, she is here about 15 hours per week. She loves the boys and they love her. Her name is Michelle and she is from the Phillipines. She has two children she is supporting back home and we are glad to be able to help her. Not only does she take care of my children, my house is spotless each day when I arrive home. She is a wonderful, wonderful girl. We hope to keep her. We pay her much more than a typical local, so we hope she remains happy with us, even with the challenges the kids may bring her. I hope she continues on with us. She plans to be here about another year or so.
Andy's job is going well, altho very demanding. He is getting ready for the BIG F1 race here in Abu Dhabi the middle of November, its a HUGE account for them. Look it up on line. He is learning new things everyday. They are giving him a lot of responsibility, so I think they like what they see. GO ANDY...get that raise!!!
My job is wonderful, I love it still. It has many challenges, but I have seen so much improvement with my kids since the start of school. They are beginning to get into a routine and they are starting to understand what I am saying, altho I have NO CLUE what they are saying to me!!LOL They are wonderful kids, and I am really enjoying myself. We are so appreciated here, so much different from the states. Again, if it weren't so far from home, I'd stay forever!!!
I will add some pics on a different blog. We went to Jumeriah Beach in Dubai this past weekend, so MUCH fun! I can't believe we are going to Dubai for fun on the weekends! :) Also, I will add pics of my kids at school. They are so precious! Love them all!
Well, I had better sign off. It's 6:43 pm and still no dinner on the table. I am making New Zealand beef tips for hot beef sandies tonight. Gotta go mash taters and make gravy! Ya'll take care. Breathe in some of that fresh country brisk air for us. We are missing that for sure!!
Love, Abby and boys! :)
