9 months old and counting....

Welcome back to the blog, it has been a little while since I posted and not only that but I am late on this post seeing how Remy is 9 months old now and I typically post on his new month mark.

Well, I have been busy trying to really get this last semester down packed and done. I want to make sure I pass all my classes especially my math class seeing how it is the only class that really stands between me and my Associates degree. I will then go back once Dan is done with school in about a year. We were able to go home and visit the good ole NC because my brother and his family got sealed at the temple which was amazing to be a part of and I was glad they allowed us to come and celebrate that moment with them. I got my hair cut while I was there as I always have to because I do not trust anyone in St.Louis yet to cut my hair. It is funny as a women hair is your love, you can not go from one place such as sports clips to another like super cuts. Women are like fine wine they grow with age wait that doesn't make sense, let me try that again women like to stick to that one person they find suits their needs best just like a doctor. A hairstylest is your doctor for your hair and once you find one you never switch. So I got that done. I also got to spend lots and lots of time with my mom which was really nice because I don't get that very often if not at all when I am home due to work or lots of other people need her attention so it was nice to have her for a couple of days to myself (selfish I know). I got to spend time taking photos of my brothers family which I love that they allow me to do so and I really enjoy the practice and love they show me by allowing this to happen. Jen and I got to hang out once or twice but for us that is not nearly enough time we both know that. All in all it was a good trip and I hope to go home sometime soon again if our budget allows.




Dan is doing well in school he got an offer or maybe two for a summer internship out here which will be great because then we do not have to spend double rent over the summer and it will save us money that way. He is really excited to start an internship and feel like he is part of society by having a "big boy" job. I can't wait for him to go into his field and really get excited because he has worked so hard to get where he is today. Dan loves being a dad, the reason why I know this is because the way he looks at Remy and plays with him always melts my heart.

Remy is doing well he is 9 months old now, he crawls, talks kinda, says mama & dada, as well as loves to pull him self up on anything he can. He is a mover and always has been. We wonder if all that energy he has is a good thing or a bad thing but I guess it could go both ways. Remy is going through a phase for sure right now were he doesn't want to take 2 naps a day anymore and if he falls asleep in the car for 15 min. he thinks that it will count for a nap. We still try to put him down but he ends up screaming for about 20 min. until we go in there. It is a struggle to get him back to his old ways but I do not know if it will happen but I really hope he does. I need him to take those 2 naps a day at least until the semester ends would be nice. He loves to do this funny breathing thing were he breaths really heavy over and over because he is excited it is pretty cute. Remy,Dan and I went to the zoo and met up with a friend Megan and her family for a fun little zoo date. I think Remy really enjoyed going to the zoo with them as did we.

Lexy is doing better her bladder stones seem to have gone way back down which is great! She no longer needs to be in her cage while out and about again. It is nice not having to put her in there because I always feel bad that I have to do that. Lexy has figured out now more then before that highchair = food from Remy. We often find her searching for scraps after he has finished eating. It is really funny but bad at the same time as she is now on a strict no scrapes, nothing but dog food diet. I hate it because I love to give her veggies but can't, but I love my dog and will do what the doctor says.


Thats all for now

My crawling 8 month old

Well, it is that time again the time to read a whole bunch of randomness.

Well Remington is 8 months old now and can crawl, sit up all on his own, climb up things, and even drink water from his sippy cup. He is getting old and growing up way to fast. He loves to talk and laugh with his dad. It is funny because when I will ask Remy to say dad he looks at me funny but when Dan asks him to he 75% of the time will do it. I love watching Remy get excited for things because it is so cute. He will kick his legs like crazy and breath really fast and heavy it is just to cute. Remy is such a good baby the reason being is that we go grocery shopping at 3 different stores, I know it sounds like a lot but we can not get everything we want at one store plus most of our stores are all in the same area. But back to Remy, sometimes it can take us up to 3 hours to go grocery shopping ( it varies) and he will last the entire time and be happy about it. It really helps that he does not mind going to every store with me and Dan.

Lexy is doing okay she recently had bladder stones back in November of last year and lately she has been going to the bathroom a lot more so this week I will have to take her to the vet again and see if they are back. She might need to get surgery to remove them, which is something I do not want to hear but she is a young dog so it's no big deal more of the cost is what I do not want to know. It is crazy how much we will do for our dogs no matter what, I swear they are like children. Dan says that they are like children all the time I always agreed with him but lately more then ever is he right about dogs and children being the same.

Dan is taking his midterms this week and I can not believe that it is already that time. I mean this semester sometimes seems to go really slow and then sometimes it goes by really fast. In about a week he has spring break were my spring break is not until April. Dan has really enjoyed playing racquetball with another guy from our church and is getting better at it each week. He also has been playing basketball with our church basketball league and they are 7-1 they only lost one game due to a forfeit. Soon they will have a tournament which I am sure that Dan and his team will dominate.

I am doing okay I am just trying to finish up my last semester with flying colors so I can finally get a Associates degree. It may only be in general studies for now but it is better then nothing. I love that Dan supports me in trying to finish school. Once Dan is done with his Masters I will go back and get a Bachelors degree but for now my Associates will do. I have been working at a new site and I now have a new title at work. I work in child watch were I look after younger children their ages range from 7 weeks- 8 years old. Child watch is were people bring their children to work and drop them off for the max of 2 hours so that they may work out. I switched jobs because it is a lot closer to our place as well as it saves money on gas, and lastly I can bring Remy to work. It is great for Remy because it gives him the chance to socialize with other children. He comes to work with me about 4-5 days out of the week. It is a lot of work and a lot of times I want to pass out because it wears me out but it helps us not having to worry about who can be home to watch Remy.
Well that is all for now, till next time
