Update

So I've been feeling monstrously (new word, in fact word of the week) guilty about being gone for 6 hours a day M - F then 12 hrs Sat and Sun. My poor little boy is shuffled to babysitters 7 days a week. I just finished the first 2 weeks of Nursing school and only had 3 sob moments which were mostly on the way to school after dropping Logan off. Also we find out that Lances Crew might get split up which means he could be on grave shift for another 3 months, so that was sob fest #4. When Lance is on days He can watch Logan on his days off in the morning when I'm gone. But when on graves he has to sleep in the day since he gets home at 6:30 AM; its not practical for him to stay up till 2pm when i get home then leave for work at 5pm (despite what some people think). So we are really having a hard time with graves grrrr.

Today (Friday) we finished our second big test and clinical pass off so I vowed not to do homework tonight (Even tho I should be for Pharmacology grrr... that teacher drives me nuts). Well tonight after the 'Friday test and clinical pass off thingy magingy' I decided to surprise Logan. I went and picked up his best friend Mia and then went to get him from Alyse (little sister who was watching him while I was at school). Logan was crying when I got there for who knows what but when I brought him to the car he said, "Is that my best friend! (through sobs)Thank you momma!"

So I throw him in the car and we head to the tree house. On the way I picked up my mom to help me since watching two 3 year olds at that giant place is a challenge. Right when we walked in they were off in separate directions, my mom took one and I the other. They added a GIANT cow that you can milk and I carried Mia in on my hip to see it and she clenched up and was so scared. Well I'm feeling all warm inside until I realize it was warm on the outside because she PEED all over my shirt. So I ran around the treehouse the next couple of hours smelling like pee.

We finally left and my mom took us to Costa Vida where the kids shared a Quesadilla and downed it like they had never eaten before. They were so worn out! Once I got in the car I had my Ipod on shuffle and Black Eyed Peas monkey business came on and somehow they both fell asleep to it (with in a minute of being in the car 7:30pm) They are dang cute look at them!

Logan is still asleep (its 9pm) and I'm going to join him, I feel exhausted all the time these days and and soooo excited to hit the sack.

Goodnight.
