CRAZY!!!!! and 4 months!!

SO I really appreciate Tony posting last week, cause I have not had a second to spare these past couple weeks. Last week was....well awful and yes crazy. Monday was my first day back to work since last May, and Elizabeth's first day in daycare(but I'm right next door so no worries) I'm working in the two year old class now, and found out that it has been completely neglected for nearly a year, and in desperate need of consistency and stability, not to mention putting back together; this of course my boss Heidi failed to mention when I took the job, but because I quickly fell in love with the poor kids, I'm doing it. Monday night Tony didn't have school so we went grocery shopping that we desperately needed to do...late night. Tuesday I started trying to figure out where my little lost two year old class was at curriculum wise, and such, there's absolutely NO organization in that room! Tuesday night I had Relief Society Presidency meeting that went past nine thirty, and piled on tasks for me to do sometime, oh and I was reminded that we were speaking in sacrament meeting that Sunday and needed to decide on a topic, with inspiration of course; which I was sorely lacking! Wednesday I went to work and sanitized all the toys, organized them put them in labeled containers and put them in their place for the first time. That night Tony was at school so Liz and I chilled at home. Thursday I organized the found curriculum, and attempted to implement a schedule. That night I had a work staff meeting to atlk about all the many things that aren't working like oh the curriculum?! And of course nothing about how to fix it, just fix it. I didn't hear a whole lot cause Elizabeth was in a bit of a bad mood. Friday morning I woke up late, so was rushing to get ready I got myself and Elizabeth dressed, her fed and was just getting ready to head downstairs to head out, when Elizabeth threw up all over me her the bookcase and the floor. I really wanted to cry. But I called Tony and my work, then took her temp which was 101.4, then called the pediatrician who said that it was probably viral and should go away in a couple days and to just keep her hydrated. So I changed me and her, and headed to work smelling like hypoallergenic formula puke...yay!! Tony arranged for his parents to take Elizabeth for the day. Saturday we worked on cleaning up our neglected condo, bought a new, smaller dining table, went shopping again this time so we wouldn't have to go for two weeks. Saturday night I stayed up past midnight trying to get enough inspiration to write a talk on faith which I'm lacking in my life. I finished my talk Sunday morning, and by the time it was my turn to speak(I was 3rd) there was only a little more than 10 minutes left in sacrament meeting, and the president was speaking after me, so I did my best to summarize my talk, and she still got away with just bearing her amazing, inspiring testimony. We then went home as Elizabeth still had diarrhea. We had my parents down for dinner that night, which was really good, thanks Tony. My parents brought down there Wii that we played til we were, as always, sore. And then another week began. Monday I went to work then got off to take Liz to the dr since she still had diarrhea and now wasn't eating. She was a bit dehydrated but weighed in at 13 pounds barely(which for 4 months old as it was to the day was ok, not great but ok) so the dr said to just watch her and keep the fluids going. Tony has school mon through thurs, so we did our own thing. Tue is presidency meeting where I was reminded to do the things I was supposed to do during the week, and of course added a few things, but it's great cause I've got lots of free time on my hands! :) Tony was nice enough to take Liz after school while I had my meeting, it can be difficult sometimes to feel the spirit when your trying to calm a screaming baby. Wed and Thurs were typical days, which is just crazy with 7 two years olds, all with there own version of the English language, a couple that haven't yet grasped the language at all, so charades in the name of the game! Today was pajama day(and yes the curriculum called for it, not me!) It was nice to be so comfortable! Tomorrow we're getting my family's pictures retaken and the last ones got lost! Luckily Elizabeth isn't really growing so though it's two months later she still fits into her outfit! Better now actually!! I'll attach some 4 month pics for you, though she was sick she was of course still adorable!!

What a Week

Well i figured that i would give Anni a break from posting and i would fill you in. Well Lets start with New Years. It was a pretty quite one for us. Annis dad had his hardware, a plate and screws, from when he broke his leg last year. This was done on Monday. Seeming how we figured that he probably would not be up to going to far we decided to travel up there house and spend it with them. We had a lot of fun. Her dad got a Wii for Christmas and we had a fun time breaking it in. We stayed up at there place all day on New Years day to visit and play the Wii, that thing is addicting. We would have stayed up there for Friday but i had to work, did not want to use up all my vacation days to early in the year. That was our New Years, very quite but very fun.

This week has been really interesting in our house. Anni started back to work on Monday and that meant that Elizabeth started daycare. Anni is such a trooper for going back to work to help pay the bills, we want to eventually get her home full time and right now is the best time for her to go back. She is working in Sandy now and it is alot closer for her to being home and she can be with Elizabeth at the end of her day. She informed me the other night that she gobbles up her lunch so she can spend the lunch hour playing with Elizabeth. Anni is surviving and is enjoying working with the 2's, well that is what she tells me it could be a completely different story. Also this week i started back with school on Tuesday, that is more time away from Anni and Elizabeth that is really hard. On Wednesday i have school up in Ogden so i am pretty much gone the whole night. Again i have a wonderful Wife who understands that i need to get done with my education so i can spend more time with my family in the future. It is hard to think of her dealing with kids all day at work and then coming home to take care of our daughter. I am really appreciative that she will let me do what i am, i am away from home 4 nights a week and 2 of those are late nights as well. Anni thanks for all you do for me while i am in school, less then 2 years and i will be done and then all the time i spent on school will be spent with you and Elizabeth.

Well i hope this makes sense for you, Anni is so much better at posting and writing then i am.
