It's Offical

Well, I went for that level two ultrasound and they determined my due date...Oct. 12! That means that I am 17 weeks today. Almost to the half way mark,that is hard for me to believe. The doctor said that the baby is off to a good start and I will go back for another u/s May 24th. I'm hoping to find out what it is then. :) I've been feeling less tired ,but still have my emotional cave ins. I'm learning to be more aware of them and work through them. I just get so overwhelmed with it all!!

In other news, Kurt and I are looking forward to the end of school. He has done so well with this online school that we will do it again next year. His teacher recommended him for the gifted language arts program for 3rd grade. I decided to hold off on that for next year because I won't have the time to give him any extra help it may require. If he does well again next year,then maybe in 4th grade. We will see!

Ed's job is going well. He is hoping to get a good raise in June. He will be there a year already.

We have gone down to one car for now. It hasn't been to bad so far. Scheduling appointments has been a bit hairy, but I just need to get a better handle on Ed's schedule in order to make it work better! There have been a few times where Kurt has wanted to go somewhere and we couldn't but it's a good learning experience for him. Speaking of learning experiences, Kurt had a big one just the other night. HE made the choice to stay home with Mom instead of going bowling with his dad. His plan was to stay outside and play with his cousins for most of the time. However ,the cousins were only home for about an hour and he was left with just me. Well ,he started to cry that he wanted to go bowling with Dad. It was way to late at that point. I explained to him that he had made his choice and he was gonna have to live with it. It took him awhile to settle down. It so hard as a Mom to have to watch your child go through a difficult learning experience. Deep down inside I knew it was good for him ,but it was certainly hard on his Momma.
Ever since I was a young mom I knew I needed to teach him how to make good choices. That is what life is about. Some choices are BIG and some very insignificant. We make choices all day long and I hope and pray that I am teaching him how to make good Godly choices whether big or small.
Well enough for now....until next time...
