Happy MLK Day

Today we are going to a car museum in Tallahassee.  It should be a great rainy day activity. 
I finally have Christmas and New years Pics on Photobucket.

Suzie is feeling much better.  We got her a sweater to wear because her hair is very very short and she gets very cold in our house when its about 68 degrees.  LOL!  Pics of the sweater coming soon.  I started taking her to training classes at Petsmart.  She is a very good dog, but she has trouble listening with distractions, so we want to get some practice. 

Micahela went to an evaluation with an Occupational therapist and a Physical therapist.  Great news, she will need little to no physical therapy because her gross motor skills are right where they should be.  Her fine motor skills were always very good.  Now we just need to work on being able to brush her hair and trim her nails and get her dressed.  Michaela scratched her neck in a fit on Thursday trying to get a sweater off.  She knows how to remove her clothes, but having a sweater on gave her such anxiety that she lost it.  Behavior wise, Joe and I are working with our very own Super Nanny.  Well, the one on base who is pretty good anyhow and is going to help us to come up with a good discipline plan for both of the girls.  Hooray for both parents being on the same page and being consistent!!
Morgan is Morgan.  She likes school.  She likes everything.  She is big, getting bigger every day.  Talking a little more every week.  She knows her colors and she is interested in counting, although she usually skips a number, or two. 

The girls are adjusting to school.  Michaela insist that the other kids "freak her out", but she is crying a lot less when I drop her off in the mornings. 
School is going great for me so far.  We will see after I have a few tests, but I feel very confident right now, and I love school, so much.  At this point, I am only learning about things I am interested in, so it is great. 


We have been working on the house slowly.  We ordered windows for the house. We got a great deal.  December is the best month to order windows, it seems.   I am excited and nervous.  I cannot wait to have new windows, but I am nervous about a big expense, of course.  Someone is coming to measure our windows right now and we should have them in about 3 weeks! 
Joe is planning to make the master bath our next DIY project.  I cannot wait.
We are all very excited about Grandma, Mom, Rachael and Lucas coming to visit!! 
I just need to mention, there is a hotel down the street that advertises $199 for one week, so if anyone wants to come visit for a week or two or three...
You all know you are welcome to come sleep on our air mattress, or couch.  Its so nice down here.  Please come visit!!!  We miss you!!
