Well here I am, repentant and ready to begin again. As of this post I am watching The Bucket List and it has inspired me to better myself when it comes to writing in this here blog. This might be the only way certain people receive updates on my little family. So heeeeere we go!
The last few months have been full of surprises, excitement, depression, disapointment and joy. I was afraid to lose my job, afraid to go to prison, I saw my son grow several teeth and learn to crawl. To put it shortly it has been life in general.
ALastor has been crawling all over the place lately, he can pull himself up onto chairs and is able to walk while holding my hand. He has taken several shaky steps but is nowhere near walking on his own. He grins almost as much as he cries (which is often) but his smiles always light up my day. He has finally been able to meet all of his Uncles on my side of the family. Uncle Chad has less than a year left on his mission in Beunos Aires. He is really looking forward to meeting Alastor. But if he keeps referring to him as "little Al" or "AL" i'm going to hide him away until he learns to call him by his proper name. Not a big deal but I don't want a habit formed.
Meghan has been doing great taking care of our little man. He has been getting into a good bit of trouble lately, so we have been baby-proofing out cabinets. She loves taking him out on walks and swinging in the front yard. She has gotten to know a large group of mothers in our culdesac, they are a very good source of parenting tips and babysitting.
Work has been good. I recently got a raise and have been working full-time for a few months now. It is hard work but I love being able to provide for my family. I have been drawing comics for our bi-monthly newsletter and they have been received pretty well.
I am currently taking a math course that should clear up all of my Math requirements for college in about eight weeks. Sounds too good to be true, but it has been good so far. Math and I are fickle friends but we'll have a temporary seize fire for the next six weeks. Once all of this hooflah is over with I will be taking (I hope) 3D design, History and perhaps Sculpting the Human Figure. And then Photography in the Spring. We'll see how things turn out, but I am excited to continue school!
Well well, this is turning out to be a lot easier than I thought. Good.
