She will not be thrilled.

Cay is home sick today. He woke up vomiting and with the runs. Poor guy.
Jarod is going to be getting tested in a bunch of stuff by the school psychologist, spec ed department, nurse, and speech peoples. Finally. Then we have another meeting to go over the results. A LONG meeting. He is such a sweetie, yes even when he is melting down lol. Now he can get the help he needs for school. SOOO Happy about that.
Evan is Evan. Mr Cool. HE is actually being social with people now. Which is great.
Kiara is getting excited for her birthday. Even though it isn't until April. She will be 5. I can't believe she starts school this fall. She is still in Ballet and loves it.
Photobucket
The next recital is in June. her class is doing a China doll dance. i can not wait to see the costume they choose! i can totally see Kiara as a china doll.
Photobucket
They have been starting them on the bar.
Photobucket
Poor Kiara is so teeny she can hardly bend her knees and still reach that one lol.
Photobucket
yeah she is
Photobucket
the smallest in her class

though by far not the youngest lol. She is the cutest though.
Kian ahhh Kian. Driving me to distraction lately.He is at that i want to be in the thick of things but he can't move yet phase lol. he is quite adept at rolling now and can roll roll roll off his blankets. He also has a cold and wakes up about 3 am snuffly n fussy every 10 minutes the rest of the night. Yeah shoot me lol. Trying the humidifier tonight in hopes it keeps him from drying out.

Update

Well lets see what have I done. I made puff pastry for the first time ever. From scratch! It was yummy. I am no longer scared of pastry dough. Go Me.

I finished my A&P II class. I received 3 100%'s on my tests. Waiting on my class participation to show. They only update it once a week. Then they ship my next class. Which is Diagnostic Imagery. I am excited about that one. Then after that i have veterinary pharmacology. Should be mind boggling. I guess i can work on the 800 word comp I need to write about what i have learned as a writer. (NOTHING) Sigh.

Jarod has a meeting Monday. Well I have a meeting Monday bright and early (7:30) at the school to FINALLY go over the issues we see and get him tested to get the help he needs for school. YEAH! Hopefully Kenny can come too. I will need to take E to school really early. He will just eat breakfast there that day. And C and J can eat bfast at school while I am in the meeting. I think they serve that early. If not they can be at the meeting with me then eat there. Of course the 3 younger are stuck with me regardless lol.

I recently found out what the theme is for this years recital and what costume her class will be wearing. The theme is around the world. And her class will be doing a china doll dance! HOW cute will that be! Can't wait to see that costume. Though I can wait to pay for it lol.

Evans GF had her birthday Friday. He got her chocolates and flowers. I realized after the fact that means she just turned 13! 13! YIKES! i am not ready for this.

Leila and Kian are both getting over this cold. And I am getting it. Kian is not thrilled about it. He has been quite miserable. And whiny and not sleeping and otherwise driving me batty. They are both growing so much. L is starting to lose that baby look. =( She is looking more like a little girl. sigh

Score!

So I turned in another English Comp essay thingy last week. I got my score back today and SHOCKINGLY, as I was expecting a d again, I received a 91! Whoohooo. It was a narrative comp. I didn't even have anyone pre read it for me just sent it off. I would of received a better score except I really didn't believe each person talking should be in a whole new stinking paragraph. I mean It would of had 3 word paragraphs! And most books I read aren't like that. So I got docked for my grammar and mechanics score. I can hope to get that good a score on my next 2 but I don't see it happening as frankly I still don't understand what they even want from me for the next one. And the last one is actually my final and 1/3rd of my grade for that class. Right now I have 3 A's and a D in that class. Hopefully i can get at least a B on the next comp then those grades would be relatively high enough to counteract a D on the final, if worst comes to worst and I get one. I was so excited when I saw that 91 I jumped around and had Evan give me a high 5! I honestly never expected to get that high a grade on any of the comps. I was suppose to write about something that happened in my life (from a diary) HA! Diary. This is as close as i get to a diary. I wrote this essay last year. When Sher was home recovering from her ickiness. So it was basically a narrative about that time. Though I made up a few phone calls and stuff for it lol. Too much worrying back then and not enough conversations. But hey Sher youl be glad to know all your misery got me an A lol. Evil Laugh. Well an A-. a 90 was a B lol. Boy reading it to see the comments and correction brought it all back to me again and i must say Sher i am glad you got better. I would have to hunt you down and kick yer butt if something happened to you. I would miss you dreadfully, and I love you dearly. So stay healthy from now on! Is your appendix out? If not you should just have em pull it now! Save us the worry for later lol.
