All the people that feel neglected because I haven't updated our blog...sorry, you'll have a take a ticket : ) Things at school have been so busy the past 4 weeks, I'm not 100% sure Kai still recognizes me. I've been going to school on the 7:11am bus, and coming home on the 7pm or later bus, the last two weeks I've had one night that I don't go to sleep, just code the night through. It's been frustrating, there is no such thing as finding a balance in school. You do your homework until it is done, sleeping and eating are done in you 'spare' time.
But enough complaining...now for some optimism! I am really enjoying what I'm learning in my classes, and I do take at least a half day off Saturday and Sunday so I do get some quality(not quantity) time with the fam.
Yuan has started some (very) parttime work for a charter school teaching Chinese. She has 3 boys in her class, ranging from 12 - 16. She's so glad to get out of the house and do something else, even if it is only 4 days a week for an hour. She's also getting into makinng different kinds of foods that Kai can eat.
Kai is STILL growing like a weed. I thought he was starting to slim out...but it turns out he's just getting taller. He weighed in today at a 21.2 lbs naked. He's loving solid foods (did anyone really doubt he would?). He's been sitting up well for a few weeks now, in fact now he complains if you set him down in any other position. He can also stand if I give him a finger to balance with. He's just getting so strong, I wonder how much longer it will be till he crawls...heaven help us : )!
Yum!!!
What do you mean that's all?! But I'm still HUNGRY!
He's still got chunker thighs : )
