Life in the Fast Lane

Well, life is crazy for me right now as I am trying to juggle home life, work & school. So, truthfully, I haven't had any extra time to spend on blogging which upsets me since I love doing it. I started back up this fall at UTA (University of Texas at Arlington) and am taking 7 hours. My goal is to apply for their nursing program in spring 2012. I actually go to campus for one of my classes on T/Th with a lab following on Th. On these days I have to leave my house at 7:45am to make it there for my 9:30 class. Pure craziness! The other class I am taking is an online course. The first week of it all was very overwhelming but things have gotten a lot better. Please wish me luck!

Harleigh started the 1st grade & loves it. She rides the bus everyday to & from school, has to read every night for 15 min. & has a spelling test every Friday. She also is cheer leading this fall for the SYA Steelers and has practice every T/TH from 6-7pm with games being held on Saturday. She is doing awesome at cheering and actually won the Most Spirit award at cheer camp this past Saturday. I was so proud of her! She also is about to start going to children's church again on Wednesday nights...so she has a busy little schedule going on herself.

Rhett on the other hand just goes with the flow. Amy comes to my house 3 days a week to watch him while I work & then I take him over there on the other 2 days while I go to class. So he is really close to his Aunt Amy & his little buddy Trevor. Rhett will soon be getting a cranial helmet here in the next couple of weeks which means we will be driving to Dallas weekly for adjustments. How we are going to work that in...I don't know yet! He will probably have to wear his helmet for 3 months. He is just now starting baby food & so far likes peaches & bananas. He is very close to sitting up on his own & is teething like crazy. He doesn't have any teeth yet but it shouldn't be much longer. He also started sleeping in his crib a few weeks ago and is doing awesome!

Jarrod just got on a deer lease this year so hunting now takes up most of his free time. He went there last weekend to set up his deer blind & feeder and is very excited for opening weekend. He has been dove hunting a few times and Harleigh gets to go with him this weekend. She is so excited! Another past time for him of course is fantasy football. So if there is football on, Jarrod is watching it!
