Max, Survey of Math, Friends, Etc.....

We'll I never cease to be amazed with my son! He is walking on furniture and so ready to take off and start walking....scares me, but its all part of growing up...he is growing up WAY to fast for this mama! Just a year ago, I was preggers and ready for it to be over with and now I'm wanting him to be a newborn again! However, I wouldnt change it again for the world! I LOVE HIM more than ANYTHING in this world. Tonight during bath time, he learnt to put his balls in the basketball hoop hanging in the tub. He laughed so hard when he did it, I was laughing at him. He has the cutest giggles! LOVE IT!

This term I am taking Composition 1, Anatomy and Physiology, & Survey of Mathematics! Composition is okay! Teacher is good, nice, helpful & friendly....Hopefully will be an easy class.... A&P is going to be a challenge but I can do it! NOW on to Math....teacher is nice and helpful, HOWEVER this class is the death of me!!! I have an awesome tutor, named Shara....she is awesome!!! Yesterday she helped me so much!!!! I took the quiz today and we'll see what happens :)

I am glad I made the decision to go back to school in February. I have made some kick ass friends! I feel so lucky to have met them! :) Hopefully some of these friends will be life long friends.....

I am so glad that the long weekend is finally here! Friday & Saturday, I'm off. Saturday were going to a cook out at Max's Grandma Cindy's house and then it Cyndy's Bachelorette Party! HELL YA! I can't wait to party with my friends from elementary and high school again! Sunday & Monday I have to work a few hours in the morning and than its relaxation on from there.....I am excited that the weather is supposed to be nice and the Altoona pool opens on Saturday! Me and Max will be spending ALOT of time there this year! :) WHOOT WHOOT!


Wow, how old am I, if I am tired by 8:43 pm.... BLAH!

Have a good night!

Can You Say I Told You So?!

So a week ago, the paternity results came back for Max, and let's just say, I TOLD YOU SO! I wont go into details, but it makes me wanna laugh because people are stupid and need to realize the truth. I think there finally opening there eyes to discover the truth.

Speaking of I Told You So.... I am so going to see Carrie Underwood. My tickets came in the mail. Casey, KP, Jesse & I are going to see her on December 4th. I can't wait! I am a HUGE fan :) It will be a fun fun night.

I am trying to figure out what shows to record on my new DVR's. I got the one where you can record in 2 different rooms and view them on any tv.... LOVE IT! :) I always run out of room to record stuff during the fall season. Now I will have whatever I wanna watch :)

We'll I have to go get ready for dinner w/ Jesi & the finale of Grey's Anatomy......have a good night!

School, Graduation, & a Sick Baby....

Well Well Well! Here we are... Tuesday night and I am excited for a much calmer day tomorrow. School started back on Thursday. What a day I tell ya! Math is not my strong suit and I am not so sure about this teachers teaching style. He hands out the packet and we have to self learn. I am going to check into switching to a different class if possible. All my friends are in the class I am currently in so that makes for a hard decision, but I am not there to make friends, I am there to learn. Right?!

Amanda graduated from Iowa on Saturday. The ceremony was no where near as bad as I thought it would be. We got great parking, and great seats. Max did exceptionally well for a 9 month old baby. He is such a good baby. I am so lucky! Tom Brokaw was a great speaker. Gave me motivation to keep going in my studies, no matter how hard I struggle. I am struggling after Math & A&P this last week. Its going to be a rough term but I CAN DO IT! Thats how I'm going to make it, is positive self reinforcement. The motel we stayed in, in Coralville, was the "no tell, Motel". It was the Motel 6 and it was awful. It was dirty, small and stunk. We were definately excited to check out. Had we been filthy rich and could afford $280 a night for a single bed room at the Holiday Inn, I woulda done it. Instead I paid $89 for a stinky room with filthy bed spreads...go figure....soooo glad to be back home.

Max had to go back to the pulminologist yesterday. They are pretty sure he has asthma. I know, right?! He was a bear the past few days and  I really dont know what else I can do for him. He is on steroids every other day and than nebulizer treatments when needed. I dont know what I'm going to do if his dad ever has anything to do with him because he is an avid smoker and Max can't be around that or anyone who has been around smoke.... *sigh*. We go back in a month to see how he is doing and see how his breathing/wheezing is doing.

Last Thursday during math class, my eye started hurting and acting up. I took my contacts out and when I woke up on Friday it was pink and swollen. I went to the doctor and I had "bacterial" conjunctivitis. Apparently its in the air! So I was on eye drops all weekend for that. I looked super emotional even though I wasn't.....oh well :) Today was the first day, I have had no issues at all with it. thankfully its starting to look better to!

We'll I better get going, because I have homework and medical club stuff to do. Being VP of the Medical Assistant Club, was a little more than I anticipated, but oh well, what do you do!?

Have a good one....

Thanks for reading....

Love,
Heather & Max

9 months, and where has it gone?!

WOW! Max is now 9 months old. He is pulling himself up on things, pretty soon he is going to take off. EEKS! I love him SOO much that I can't even begin to tell you. He has made my life so fulfilled and perfect. Well nothing is perfect, but its pretty dang close :) I am so amazed at how much he has come along in 9 months. In less than 3 months,  he will be one year old...scary! I will be a mama to a 1 year old... wow I feel old. HAHA! Just messing :)

I start school back up on Thursday. First term was awesome and fast, let's pray the 2nd term is fast also! I have Anatomy & Physiology, Comp 1 and Survey of Mathmatics :) I dont know why I just smiled, but I can't help but be happy, other wise I would run and cry.

I really need to get back to the wind and grind on the weight loss issue. I was doing so good, and now I'm starting to feel it come back on. I really like the smaller jeans and I am determined to keep them. Biggest Loser work out here I come. Did I mention I love the show? I love it because its inspirational and o cause Alison Sweeney is on there! Huge fan!

My sister graduates on Saturday from the University of Iowa. I am so proud of her and excited for her to experience the reality of life. Were heading up Friday and staying overnight and then I'll come home Saturday night. I am so happy and proud of Amanda. Congratulations if you read this....<3 you!

We'll I will continue to update you gise on our life. It has become so eventful with me going to school and Max starting at daycare. (Which he LOVES!)

Have a good night!

Heather.
