Week 3.....

Wow, I've been typing this blog for three weeks. So much fun for me and it makes sure I follow through on my commitment. Now I just need to be better commited to some more goals in life. This has been a crazy week. I went back to work on Monday. I cried all the way to work. I used to love my job, but now, it is just a job. I think that there are more important things in life then spending 50 hours a week working with people that don't want to be there either, plus the 7 1/2 hours driving every week is getting on my nerves. Oh well....not much I can do about that. I need money, so work is a necessity.

On Thursday, Kortni texted me and asked if I could watch Haiden this weekend. (I'm always glad to see by grandson). We made arrangements so I could have him all weekend. I picked him on on Friday and I will be taking him to his Grandma Stacey's this afternoon (he finally fell asleep from total exhaustion). I love to see him and get to spend time with him. Kortni is such a good mother and Haiden is a supreme little guy. We took him to my work Christmas party on Saturday morning. This was the first time he has ever been to the movies. We saw Despicable Me. We all liked the movie (Nick said he loved the movie). Haiden ate popcorn for the first half, then he got a little fussy and went to sleep. He was very good. We then took him to church on Sunday for all three hours. He was very good during Sacrament meeting, but he refused to go to nursery. I just kept him with me through Sunday School and Relief Society. When we got home from church Bailey, Haiden and Nick played and watched Avatar and ate lots of cheetos. Ashley and Ryan came to visit and brought a bazillion k'nex to everyone to build stuff. Haiden was getting tired so he laid down with grandpa Rick and fell asleep. I should mention that while all this playing around is going on, I made bread, pumpkin bundt cake and put beef stew in the crock pot :)

Michael called at the first of the week and wanted me to bring him his birth certificate. He said he is joining the Army. We hope that is the truth and he does go into the army. We want the best for him and I hope that is what he needs to get his life on track. Nick was so excited about that news that he told his whole class that his big brother was joining, so I hope he does.

Ashley & Ryan are still not in there house. They are hoping soon to get closing done. I hope soon for them also.

Nick visited the orthodonist this week and it was decided that he needs to have some dental surgery to remove three teeth. In two weeks, he will have a quad put in so his teeth can start moving to where they are supposed to be. He was very good during the process. He has reached his 50 point mark for A/R Reading (no pictures...I need a new camera). He missed the big hall walk, but they are going to let him do it next week.

Enough for now....

Bailey has been good all week. She was excited to see Haiden this weekend. She has played and played and played with him since we picked her up from school on Friday. She really loves kids and ecspecially her nephew.
