The semester has ended and the next one has just started. I am officially a senior! It's weird to look back at all the crap I've been through to get here. I feel bad for my family because I have not been a happy fella most days. They are very supportive and love me anyway. Emma loves me if I bring her an Ice cream cone though. Matthew is happy if he has his binky and his blanket. Erin is happy if she has new clothes, a nice dinner, flowers, chocolate, a love letter, and a night with me talking about my "feelings". Man, what a guy has to go though. Geez.
So now that the terror Jr year is over our minds are now focusing on the future. Well, I will be more to the point. We are focusing on my lack of future. There is light at the end of the tunnel, but what is out there once I exit it? My grades are not the best so I need my experience to pull me though. Now, I'm looking for the experience. We have been applying for internships for the past 3 months. I hope to find something interesting where I can get some good experience and maybe work at when I have graduated.
Matthew is officially in a toddler bed. We decided that two years old is just a little to late to be in a crib. We were worried about changing him to a bed because Emma and Matthew share a room. We thought that he would wake her up so they could play. We went to wal-mart and ended up getting the Cars themed bed. Matthew loves
Cars. When it was setup, he jumped into it and pretended to sleep. He has been using it for 2-3 weeks now and has only had one problem. He jumped up on Emma's bed and start shouting "EMMA! EMMA! EMMA!" while jumping up and down on her bed.
Emma's speech has really improved a lot these past few weeks. We had parent teacher conferences a little bit ago and they gave her a glowing report. She still has some needs that must be met on the social side. She likes to play alone and has a hard time playing by an other kid's rules. We hope to take her to Lagoon Saturday. If only it would STOP SNOWING!!! Every morning she wakes up and says "Roller coaster today?" I feel bad saying no every morning.
Erin has been running every morning. She is determined to loose some weight the right way. She started P-90X and did well. Her friend Laurie and her decided that they would run and supplement their running with P-90x. We will see how it works. She looks really good to me, but it's not my opinion that matters. She just tested out of math 1010. This is awesome because she never took math 1010. She will have her associates degree by Christmas. I'm very happy for her.
Well, until next break!
