GEEZ I need to get on here more often!


I haven't written since JULY??? Woops! I blog on Myspace all the time. I would say i am going to put in more effort but guess what? I am about to start college! I went to the orientation for 'adults starting college for the first time' the other night. It was fun and I learned a whole lot! In fact, I learned that I may not have to go to school near as long as I thought I would. I want to work with children 3 and under who have developmental delays. I am taking basics this semester though. FUN! NOT! I am taking Algebra. Entry level. UGH. Apparently I have an awesome teacher. I went to http://www.ratemyprofessor.com/ to get info on my teachers. My English teacher, not so good. Well we shall see.

All the children are good! The two older ones have taken up guitar. They are pretty good too! Zoey is really doing great in gymnastics too. I am really proud. Her dad has been nicer lately so I assumed that must mean he has a girlfriend. I was right! Makes my life so much easier.

Lexi is great. She talks and talks and talks and talks. In english and spanish. She counts to 20 in english and 15 in spanish. She still speaks mostly english but understands spanish perfectly and knows a lot of words. She has started translating too which is awesome!
She also puts things together in her mind. For example: yesterday she saw a picture of a man holding an umbrella. She knows that word but instead she said "rain!" It wasn't raining in the picture and she wasn't calling the umbrella itself rain. She just knows what it is used for. Although WE never use them. We usual just run for it. Besides, it hasn't rained here in a while!
She does things like this all the time. I am not sure if she is just really smart or normal for her age.

My hubby did find a job and has been doing it since September. He likes it but eventually he wants to be a sonographer. So he wants to go to school after I am done.

Well, thats my catch up post. We'll see how long it takes till I do it again! Ha ha
