I never know what to title these...

So...
What a day yesterday!!! I applied to college, applied for FASFA, and applied to the local BOCES.
Though going to college depends on if I get the job at boces, I won't go back to school yet because I am going for teaching.

I think teaching is the greatest job for moms. I have the same days (give or take a few) off as Ryan does, summers off, GREAT benefits. Pretty sweet. Also I talked to Brandon's mom yesterday who is thinking of retiring next year, which would be cool because she would love to babysit Ryan.

So my step-dads family is coming into town tonight, very exciting. A bit has changed since the last time I saw them, I was like 16 a little on the difficult teenage daughter side :) and no baby living at home. So I'm pretty excited. My aunt has a daughter the same age as my little brother (7) who I haven't seen since she was like 4. I am going to see them next week, and we are going to the local waterpark. I'M SO EXCITED to take Ryan. I think he will love it!! It will be nice because my grandma is also going, but won't go on any rides so I might be able to sneak a few in without Mr. Ryan.

Well I'm done rambling now :)

I think I can, I think I can

So I am going to start blogging regularly! Ha or at least try...

Today Ryan had his 9 month appt, even though he will not be 9 months until the 26th. It went great, he is a happy healthy fatty :) I love his pudge. He is 21lbs and 28 inches. Big boy. I am truly starting to understand what parents mean when they say.. it seems like just yesterday... Time really does fly. I can't believe my little boy is almost 9 months old. I really does seem like we were just in the hospital anixously waiting for him!
Recently we have been discussing another baby. I would really like them to be close in age. And I want a late spring, early summer baby. That way I can immediatly start working off the gained baby weigh, instead of letting it get stuck on all winter. I am still trying to get baby weigh off from number one haha. We are hoping for a girl this time, but honestly it doesn't matter.
Well, this is a pretty short blog but not much to say today :)

so today and yesterday were pretty uneventful... yesterday we got up at like 730 and drove to Rochester to get a car, got home around 2pm, and that was pretty much all we did... Today I have been cleaning all day... Ryan was in such a good mood today, I couldn't believe seeing as he didn't take more than a 20 minute nap all day... he is getting a little grumpy now though because he is tired... hopefully he will go to sleep pretty good tonight.. he went last night without a middle of the night bottle, he did get up but as soon as i picked him up fell back asleep... so im hoping tonight no bottle.. i may let him CIO during the night, because i know he isn't hungry just wants the comfort...

Tomorrow is Good Friday. We got a pretty busy weekend. Tomorrow Ryan has a doctors appt and then Brandon family is getting together for Easter. Saturday is our friend Gabby's first birthday. And Sunday Ryan and I are going to my moms for Easter dinner. We are going to stay a few days and hopefully hang out with some people. Well anyways... Ryan is getting grumpy.. It's time for bed and then I am going to finish cleaning :) Night Night

So lets give this a whirl... Ryan has been pretty grumpy all day, he is teething. Not a fun time haha. We pretty much just hung out all day and kinda cleaned. His new thing is pulling himself to standing with the stairs. Not very safe so I keep him far away from them unless i am right there. I'm still trying to drill the whole taking off shoes thing into Brandon. Luckily Ryan hasn't gotten the whole pinching thing down yet so he cant pick up little things (like dirt) if i miss some. He just flicks his finger on it, very cute!

We're defiantly ready for SPRING!! This whole snow 2 days after 60 degree weather, not ok. I really want some nice weather, so we can walk everyday. And hopefully get this baby weight off!

Anyways... So I really love having Brandon home now. Hopefully he can do enough so he doesn't have to go back to work. He really wants to open his own body shop. I know he can do it he is so talented. We just got to find a building. With him home now and working on cars a lot more, we have to be extra careful about having too many cars around, or the town will get on us. He was talking about selling the house moving in the near future, so somewhere more in the country. Our town is tiny, but we're on the main road so everyone drives by it. I'm ok with moving as long as its not any farther away from my mom.

Well I gotta go make dinner. Haha its kinda late... Bye
