thoughts

Does anyone ever read my blog? LOL I just wonder sometimes....
We are just truckin along. Coen is fully weened from nursing now. It has been a very sad process for me, a little bit depressing actually. I made it for 10 whole months though and that is a huge deal considering that I didn't even make it a month with Avry. I think that the sadness comes from knowing that unless we have an accident there won't be anymore pregnancies for us. We know that God is going to bless us with another child-down the road- and we pray often that we find that child and bring it into our home ! I am partial to adoption because if some momma hadn't of been big enought to give away her baby to a loving family, I would not have my sister and my best friend. So-enough sadness, lets talk happy thoughts!
I started school on Wednesday, it is going to be time consuming and require alot of work and dedication! This is definitly not the easy way out. I am cramming atleast 2 semesters of work into a summer. Yes, I know I am nuts. I also have to find time to do 30hrs of classroom observation (when school is out I might mention), apply for jobs and take my TeXes test-which is in less than a week now. I feel really good about the test and am very hopeful that I will pass it the first time.
Something else that I have been thinking about is my 10 yr high school reunion. See, when you are from a small town, this is a big deal! Next summer will be 10 whole years for me. I am way excited about seeing old friends and catching up with them! It will be great to see how everyone is doing and how everyone has changed.
Kids are great, Coen is having some trouble switching to formula, but we will get it straightened out. Avry is speaking in full paragraphs now. She tells great stories....mostly about Mickey mouse, Jesus and Zacheaus. She is also making up her own songs, I catch her making up her own words to tunes from songs she knows quite often. It is precious! She is a complete joy-Eventhough Greg changed her name middle name when she was born from Joy to Joyce...:)
Well, I was taking a break from studying, so I better get back to the books!
Have a great weekend!
PS..today is the day that I got put on bedrest with Coen, I can't believe it has been a full year already!
