Re: Hello!!
I have a super mobile almost-9 month old and my husband is recovering from shoulder surgery right now. So I am on baby-duty all day (unless I'm at work). He is wearing me out. That's about it.
I saw a few pictures the other day. I can't believe how big Dylan is getting.
Yes...I may have seen mention of Lucas on FB.
lol He's such a doll! Congrats, Laura! You guys already had spring break? Ours in next week!
I'm doing well. I lost my job in October and started attending college full time in January. It's a lot more work than I anticipated, but I LOVE it! My back is still a mess and I need another surgery, but I am getting injections into the joint at a pain clinic in the hopes that I can put off the surgery until the semester ends in May. I would be devestated if I had to drop out of my first semester in college, especially seeing as it took me so many years to finally chase this dream!
Dylan is a joy and is keeping us busy. He loves to be outside and freaks out whenever we bring him in. Paige just started drivers training! Dylan will be 2 and Paige will be 16 next month!
Ahhhhhh! I love him! What a cutie-patootie! But, yeah, they can sure wear you down fast, can't they? Busy babies! I'm sorry to hear about your H. Is everything going to be ok once he heals up from the surgery?
Hi! I always love it when you stop by for an update. I can't believe Dylan is almost 2 already!
What are you studying in College? That is exciting.
I had my baby in September and am doing the SAHM thing until next September when I'll go back to teaching.
Good for you going to school full time!
Not much new with me. I finished up my masters in reading language arts a few weeks ago. Brin is 8 months old but not really mobile yet! D blows Brin out of the water in that area! I was planning on sah for the school year but now I am pretty sure I am not going back. Teaching has always been a secondary goal if mine, really I have always wanted to be a sahm and luckily we are able to swing it.
It's always so nice to see you back, and I can't believe how big Dylan is!!!
Wyatt is intensely busy and active as always. He climbs everything he can find and runs away from me wherever we are lol. He is talking a lot more than before and has a strong opinion about everything. He tires me out fast these days lol. We're having another baby late August, early September so we're in for even more trouble soon
Hey lady!!! I've missed you. Dylan is adorable as always
Not much new here. I'm pretty sure you already knew that we finally moved out of th IL's last July which was very excited for us. We've talked about TTC May/June. Money is always the issue in this conversation but if we wait for that to be perfect we'll never have kids.
We're heading to the Dominican Republic at the end of May for a friends wedding (which is why we will probably wait till June to TTC) and the day after the wedding is the Boulder Bolder, which I'm training for again but am not sure how that will work lol
Thats really it here. I'm happy to see you are in school!!! That's great. I'm also curious what you're studying. I cannot believe Paige is going to be driving! It seems like she should still be 13 lol

I'm getting my associates degree in nursing to become an RN. Your daughter is gorgeous! Congrats!
Oh, she is so stinkin' adorable! You Nesties make the cutest babies.
That's awesome that your able to SAH and that's what you want to do. I tried it and it was not really my thing...but now that's he's older, I kind of think I would love it!
Well hey there! I can't believe Dylan is almost 2! It doesnt seem like that long ago we were all counting down until his birth!
Not much is new with me... I kinda started a new position in the finance department at work last July. Basically, that just meant I added a bunch of new stuff to the administrative work I was already doing. Micah is working on finishing his masters degree and is done in August, after that we're hoping to start building a house at the end of the year.
Wyatt is such a big boy! Congrats on number 2! How exciting.
I totally agree with you on TTC...if you try to wait until everything is perfect, well, that time may never come. I's so excited at the idea of you having a baby! I can't wait! I didn't know that you moved out. That's fantastic! I can imagine you must be loving having your own place.
I'm getting an associate degree in nursing, fingers crossed! lol Yeah, i feel like she should still be 13, too!
I know, it's crazy how time flies, isn't it?
Do you like the new position? What will Micah do after he finishes his masters?
Hey glad that you stopped by to give an update! You've definitely got a cute little son
As for me I'm about 4 weeks out from my due date. So far I've loved being pregnant for the most part. I have found out though about 1 1/2 months ago that I've been having gall bladder attacks so that's been making my life very miserable. At least I've figured out for the most part that it can be controlled by my diet which helps.
So other than baby being here soon, I also started working last week. Secretarial/data entry on a dairy farm and plan to keep doing that after baby get's here as well. That's about all that's new in my life for now.

Oh my gosh! You're soooo close! How exciting! This seems like an unusual time to start a new job. They're cool with you taking time off when your LO gets here?
