After seeing all of the different blog's out there, I thought to myself......."self (that's what I call myself, haha JK) why not....might as well jump on the wagon and start one yourself, it will be fun to look back on in future months, years, whatever!" Besides, with Cody in all day school and Tyler still taking naps...somedays, I will have some time to record our day-to-days.
I was looking into taking an online course at a local school here that is a two-year program to get your teaching degree. But after looking into it further, it turned out to be 2 years online, plus 2 summers on campus and only 26 of my 100+ credits qualified for the program. So I'd of had to do 34 credits just to have all my pre-reqs. I figured, if I was going to be going to 3+ more years of college I'm going to get a degree that I'll make more money at, although summers off would be fantastic!!! :)
To those out there also going through this or recently having gone through it....I'm having a dickins of a time potty-training Tyler!! It is a battle-of-the-wills and sadly I am losing, really really losing!! What a stinker, he'll act all excited, like he's all gung-ho about it and then he'll wave his hand at me and say "But not right now, maybe later."
Cody is a 7-year-old, 1st grader who knows EVERYTHING!! Even if proven wrong he'll still argue about it.....I'm sure you Brunner's out there are thinking of his father and how Cody must be just like him :) and I have to agree :)
I am absolutely loving watching him learn this year, his teacher is wonderful! He will read books to Tyler and I before bed now, I have to slow him down and make him sound out words a lot, and remind him about the rules of reading (we have them hanging in his room), but for the most part he is doing really good and he is so proud of himself. We rode bikes to school this morning for the first time this year (his had a flat up until Friday when I FINALLY :) fixed it) and I'm not sure about anyone else, but I really like my morning coffee and it was a little bit of a challenge to ride my bike and not spill (I have Tyler in a pull-behind on my bike, it's a wonderful thing, that can be removed and used as a stroller too, I highly recomend it and at our Target right now, the one we bought 3 months ago is on clearance for half off......dangit anyway), good thing the school is only 2 1/2 blocks away.
Ok......wow, for a first blog, I really know how to ramble, oh well! It's all good! :)

Hi Amber. Glad you have a blog too. Just love keeping up with everyone this way. My life is way too boring for a blog. Thanks for the news and hope Cody has an awesome school year. At least with school close by this year you don't have to worry about the bus driver forgetting to let him off. I still chuckle when I think of that last year. Keep writing...
I love your blog. I'm glad that you posted the cute picture of your family too.
Love the blog! Great idea - I was hoping you would start one also. I have a bike trailer for Emma also and I love it. I found mine at a garage sale for $10 and am glad I bought it. She sits in it very well!
