Things in the Nelson household are as crazy as ever!
Seth is 18 months old tomorrow, and such a boy! His favorite pasttime is hitting people with sticks. Any kind of stick will do. A bat, a pole, a shovel, pretty much anything. We're attempting to learn "gentle", but so far, that's not going so well. But he sure is enthusiastic! He's currently gaining 2 more teeth, to make it a total of 14.
Grace started preschool a few months ago, and absolutely loves it! After the haircutting incident, she's turned into wuite the little impulsive 4 year old. She loves to stick her fingers in whatever dessert is sitting out on the counter. And in this house, you know that there's always dessert out. A few weeks ago in preschool, she made a porcupine with toothpicks. She kept taking them out and rearranging them. I asked her why she took the sticks out, and she said, "Mom, those aren't sticks, those are quills." And then she gave me the DUH look. Also, we had out Primary presentation yesterday. I unfotunately had to miss it, but I heard that she was the loudest one there!
Emma is several months into second grade. She has none of the problems in previous years and absolutely loves her teacher. She started after school reading a few weeks ago and is greatly improving her oral reading. She's also started reading...voluntarily. Shocking, I know.
Jon is working...hard...still. Nothing much has changed. Hopefully, within the next few months, we'll have some new news.
I am going to school fulltime for Health Care Information Services. Which is just Administrative Medical Assisting. One more clarification, Medical Receptionist. So far, things are going great! The class has really stimulated my brain, and since I really like school, going doesn't really bother me. Other than being gone 3 nights a week and about 20-30 hours of homework every week.
That's how things are going here!
How about you?
The kids Christmas Day
New Years Eve, getting ready for their first midnighter!
