Updates.....

It's been a while since I've posted anything, so I thought I would catch you up a bit :)
Zoe is doing great. She is starting to take some initiative on going to the potty, but of course it is only on the days she wants to. She has had a stuffy nose for a while now and we are thinking it is thanks to 3 molars coming through at once. I'm so ready to be done with this teething stuff for a few months! She is talking all our heads off from the time she gets up to when she falls asleep. Her favorite saying at the moment is "Where is it?" She has been in gymnastics and swim lessons for the past few weeks. She absolutely loves the gymnastics and is taking to the idea of learning to swim.
Buckeye is healing well. We took her back to the surgeon last Wednesday and she was very happy with her progress. She has another two weeks on a leash with increasing walks each day. After two weeks, she is free to roam - right over to the neighbors, I'm sure!
Ryan has been busy, but enjoying his time with the little lady. He loves waking her up in the morning and spending the mornings with her. He is the one taking her to swim lessons and has said a million times how much fun he has with her. He bought a new toy at an auction a few weeks ago and loves it....a Kubota 1100 RTV (aka. a super mini truck). I caught him driving it to get the mail the other day! I'm just excited that he will have something to actually plow the driveway with instead of spending forever using the snowblower. I'm not so excited that he is now talking about trying to get some snow removal contracts.
I'm doing fine. I've been extremely busy and am very ready for spring break and the beach! I am feeling very old today because I had a student participant start in my classroom. She will be there for 4 weeks and will be teaching at least one lesson a day. She seems great and has already started taking some initiative. I'm looking forward to a little bit of down time so that I can start organizing my room for the end of the year.
Baby #2 - is still growing....but it's really "wittle" as Zoe would say. I'm still not feeling so hot and lacking energy, but I'm surviving. I'm 16 weeks today so I just keep thinking that I'm almost halfway there! We go back to the doctor next week and would guess that we will schedule our ultrasound then. We have decided that we are not going to find out the sex and are not going to share any names. We had such a fun time with this the first time and we are excited about doing it the same way this time!
That's about it in a nutshell! Sorry I don't have any pictures to post right now, that would require me to get off the couch and find the camera - and I'm just too tired and lazy right now! :)
