February

Well you know it's the midwest when you go from 60 degrees to 25 and snow. We are so ready for spring! You know it must be bad when I say this. I normally love the chilliness of winter, but it's gotten so old.

Riley and Aidan just got over Strep Throat and it's the 3rd time for Aidan since Christmas. We will be visiting an ENT on 2/23 . Aidan has started speech class for tongue thrusting. This is an issue that deals with the way he swallows and how he pronounces letters/sounds. I hope that they figure it out and maybe he'll get his tonsils out.

Riley has started her new school "Little People's Prep School" and is doing well. She's really doing well with writing her name, knowing her letters and bevaving a little better. Riley is also dancing wonderfully and loves her ballet class. Right now she's in her princess dress practicing her moves.

Aidan is signed up for baseball this summer. He's wrapping up his basketball season and is doing pretty well. He still doesn't get the whole competitiveness portion, so that is good. :) Sort of. He loves school and is doing quite well. He has a great teacher, Mrs. Orris.

Dad and Mom are still plugging away at work. It's a stressful time in this economy and that is stressful for Radio advertising. I'm stressing over ISAT testing coming up in a couple of weeks. I'm on my 4th full year of teaching in Cerro Gordo and it's going well. I just had my last observation of the year and it was a super review. YAY!
