Well, month 15 is about over and every month I look back and think, WOW - he grew up soo much this month! Ty usually loves to try any new word I ask. My current favorite is when I ask him to open the drain in the tub, he still thinks I’m saying train, makes the choo choo motion with his arm and then I say Tyler, say Open and he say Bub-BOH, as if that's even close! It's so cute though because now that is his made up word for open. Just like I still can't get him to say 'All Done' the right way. He does the sign language for it and say, Day-Doh! Again, not even close but so darn cute. Oh and the other favorite is Radio...Ty's version 'Ari Ari -O'. Going outside is a favorite and he loves to run to the door and say 'Aut-IDE'....pretty close! He then puts out his right arm so I can put his coat on. Recently when I take off his shoes, coat or hat he cries uncontrollably for up to 10 minutes! My mom thinks it's not b/c he loves his coat but because he associates it with the fun of being able to run around outside!
Halloween weekend was a blast! Tyler LOVED running around his daycare visiting the classrooms and seeing all the other kids. His class had tents and ball pits (BIG HIT), he loved climbing and trying to jump up and down on the cots in the next classroom, chewing on the plastic golf set in the 2 yr old room and dancing in the dark with disco lights in the preschool room! He looked adorable with his superman costume on!!! Trick or Treat in our new neighborhood was a success! Even though it was SUPER cold Ty and I headed out at 6pm to Tommy and Kim's as our first house. Turns out Tyler pooped his diaper and we had to head back home to change. Nathan took Tyler to 5 more houses before coming home - it was very cold outside!! I was a giant magic 8 ball and on the back of my shirt it said, 'It's a Girl', Nathan wore his Marine gear and we sat outside on the porch and passed out over 10 bags of candy! TONS of kids - all ages!! Tyler Loved putting candy inside of the carved pumpkin's face that was sitting outside on our porch. He enjoyed watching all the kids come and go and then playing with the candy once we got inside the house. No candy for Ty this year, we ended up re-gifting it all and he ended up just eating some Teddy Grahams and Animal Cookies courtesy of Tommy and Kim!
This month I also took time off work to visit Jen Victor at Case Elementary and Sarah Cappel (Andrea Grimm's friend) at Upper Arlington. Both classes were mod-severe special ed and really completely different experiences b/c of the difference in money between the two school districts. Looking into next year, I would like to pursue teaching; however - I'm uncertain of two things. Number One - how will I take classes, be a wife and mother of two? Number Two: Do I really want to pay back up to $40k in additional student loans when I still have roughly $19k left from OSU and Capital?? Uhh, the stress of decisions!!
Baby #2 Update Dear Baby #2, why do I not have a name picked out for you yet?
This is driving me crazy. I would have NEVER imagined that I would not be able to decide between so many names!
Kinsley - does the N make it sound too manly? Kinsey is a cute nickname though.
Hayley - Love the name, BUT why are there no nicknames for Hayley??? Hay, HayHay - YUCK! Kayleigh - my step niece is named Kayleigh. Do we really care???
Kylie - we both love this name but it pretty much says KYLE
Avery - I love this name but apparently there are lots of boys named Avery. I don't like that!
I hate to mutter these words but right now I’ve gained 26lbs. Wow and Oh well. Yes I thoroughly enjoyed my Halloween Candy, indulging in pasta and putting cheese on everything! Soon I'll be back to my old healthy ways and wonder why I ever let myself eat this stuff. Baby Girl Boston is definitely a mover! She moves around WAY more than Tyler ever did and she is certainly sitting lower as I can feel her fingers and movements right around my pelvic bone. Recently I’ve been getting eye aches and headaches and I'm soo tired sometimes I don't think I can keep my eyes open. Also, I’m finding it harder to think straight as my brain feels like it is turning to mush! Added stressors include not knowing if I am returning to work and if Nathan is taking his new job proposal.....so many things to be decided in the next couple of weeks!
