Okay, so yeah it's been a while...I don't even remember what I've posted and what I haven't. The way my mind works, I'll probably re-blog the things I have written and leave out the things I haven't yet included.
I heard back about Child Care Assistance. The same day I got the letter saying I would be taken off the waiting list because I didn't comply with policy--yeah I thought it was an acceptance letter too--the daycare director pulled me aside and told me that they can't keep giving me the discounted rate they've given me. So that pretty much sucks!
I've been spending a lot of time off from work because every time I turn around, Mikey is sick--it turned into a double ear infection and then a couple days later, his ear was bleeding. The doctor said it was due to the ear infection and it happens "all the time".
Elijah had his birthday last weekend. He had a lot of fun. After his party, he played with his toys a little and then we went to a play with some friends of ours. It was a production by a group that some of my friends helped start...it was a little off the wall, but it was cute. Elijah thinks he wants to be in a play when he gets big. :)
The other day, he was pouring water into a sippy cup...my mom gave him a water bottle, but he wanted it in his sippy cup. It was right before bedtime and he knows he's not allowed to have a drink right before bed. Anyway, he says "Mom, how much can I have--3 ounces?" (Ever since Mikey has been around, he been fascinated with ounces...) I said, yeah sure. He took the bottle, placed it over the cup and tipped it once..."One"...tipped it again..."Two"...and once more..."Three--wow, three ounces is a lot!" he said wide eyed. We all had a good laugh at that! I guess it's true what they say about kids--they really do says the darndest things! (Later that night, he SOAKED my bed...we're going back to NO drinks after 7 o'clock.)
Mikey has been crawling around like a...I don't know what like, but he's so fast! It amazes me sometimes. He's also learned peek-a-boo ( aka "Where's Mikey?") and to blow kisses. It's so cute! He's quite the lady's man at school to, they tell me. One of his teacher's has her daughter in the class. One day when I picked him up from school, she said that there was a problem. 'Oh great, what now?!' I was thinking. She then proceeded to tell me that Mikey came over to her daughter, leaned in and gave her a kiss on the mouth. I'm gonna have my hands full with these boys! :D
I've been going crazy lately. With Mikey being sick, I haven't been getting much, if any sleep these past couple of weeks. I have to learn to go to bed before 10 o'clock now that he's feeling a little better and starting to sleep through the night (8 o'clock until about 5:30/6 o'clock--WOOHOO!).
Oh yeah, classes started. I had my second week this week. I have Psychology and an Education class. The Ed class isn't that bad...could be better I'm sure, but starting next week, the students are teaching. That should be interesting. I guess since we only have to lecture for 30 minutes, though, she's going to take up the rest of the time. Pysch seems interesting! I didn't think I would like it because I was thinking it would be a whole lot of mumbo-jumbo and a LOT of reading! I don't know if the second part is true, but the prof seems really down-to-earth. He makes a lot of jokes, keeps you awake--it's a 2 1/2 hour class, 8-10:30...PM!! :O
Well, it's getting pretty late. I don't know that there's much more to post about me anyway. I'm not getting into anything government-related or dealing with Michael. I've had enough of both of those situations this week and I'm not letting them get any more of my time. :P
I do have to say that I'm a little disappointed in myself though--my New Year's Resolution was to keep in better touch with friends...and besides this blog, I don't think I've kept in touch with any of them! (And that's only to assume that my friends even actually read this thing!) Sigh...well, it's a new day tomorrow, maybe something good will come from it. As always...
