Our life in a nut shell

Sitting with Dada

At the beach with G-ma and G-pa


Wes likes to smell the flowers



Since my last post in August of last year, I started nursing school clinicals, Jason works, Wesley has taken up climbing, and we bought a house. We have had a lot of negative and positive things that have happened over the last few months, I'll just stick to the positive.
Wesley turned one Oct. 25 and entered the terrible twos at the same time. He smiles a lot and likes to laugh but he is VERY active. He can get into anything. After two calls to poison control, one visit to the doctor for falling on his head, and many many cuts and bruises, we've made a bet for when his first emergency room visit will be. We've also come to the realization that no matter how close we watch him, he's a little boy and you can't prevent every accident!
Wesley has also recovered from being a baba addict. He would not give up a bottle for anything. At 13 months he finally relented and took up a sippy cup, boy was that an accomplishment!
He does still depend on a pacifier, he likes to play with his hair and tap his head while enjoying a passy. This tends to be a problem at the dinner table, I am constantly washing food out of his hair.
Jason has been working a lot. We just moved into a house Dec. 1, I use the word house loosely. So far Jason has had to replace a breaker, fix the hot water heater, stop leaky toilets, get the heat to work, and make a new dishwasher work with old plumbing. Jason is becoming quite the handy man! He has been very patient and he works very hard.
I have been studying and taking classes. I am not the best student so this has been difficult but everyone has been so supportive so thankfully I am still plugging away!
