This week has been pretty crazy. It all started on Monday when David called and told me that his mom had been in an accident on her bike. She was riding in the rain when she skid trying to turn a corner. She shattered her shoulder and had a bad head wound. She got stitches right away, but had to wait for surgery later that night. David was really worried about her. He understands what it's like to be in bad shape after an accident. I think the hardest thing is that she was in so much pain and they couldn't do much for her. The surgery went well and she came home late Tuesday night.
Wednesday was my birthday and I had a great time. I spent the day working and playing with Linko. David bought me a gift certificate for a one hour massage. I was so excited! When David got home from work, we went to Texas Road House to eat and then he took me shopping. I found some killer deals! It was great!
Wednesday morning, Lincoln woke up with a cough. I figured it was just a cold so I decided I would just watch him to see if he gets better or worse. He was not getting better so I decided to take him to the doctor today. I am glad I did because he has an ear infection in both ears. It would have been terrible to endure the weekend without any antibiotics. My back hurts so bad from holding him so much. When he's sick all he wants is to be held. That massage gift card will definitely come in handy. Hopefully Lincoln starts feeling better soon.
Other than those main events this week, I have been busy with work and taking care of my sick little boy. My job is going well. I think it's an ever changing job description...at least until we get the school more established. I feel fulfilled and happy that I can work from home. What a blessing!

Lunch = Munch

I just wanted to do a quick post with something cute Lincoln said today. When I asked him if he was ready for lunch, he responded with "munch". I think from now on, that's what we'll call that meal.

A lot of people have been asking about my new job. I am actually an online school teacher for the Utah Virtual Academy. It's a way cool gig. The best part is that I still get to be home with Lincoln. However, David and I have been struggling with Lincoln over one tiny thing. His favorite word is "NO"! He says it all day long and in a super sassy tone. Does anyone have any suggestions on how we can squash this undesirable habit? It's getting out of control! Is this just a phase? If not, how do we get it to stop? What do we do when it's down right rude when he's saying it to people when they ask for a hug? Are we taking it to seriously and we just need to relax? Please...any input would be much appreciated. We love the little guy to pieces, but parenting is hard sometimes.

Yeah! Blogging at home!

You'll have to excuse me if this post is all over the place. It's late and my brain is fried.
So I finally have wireless Internet hooked up and I am blogging at home! I don't have to go anywhere to do my blogs anymore. It's awesome! We also go tour fancy new computer hooked up tonight. It's so cool!
Last night I got back from attending a meeting for my job in SLC. It was so good to get a better feel for what I am supposed to be doing. I am feeling more and more confident about what I am doing. It's going to be good.
I have a funny story too. When I was filling out all the paperwork for my job, I noticed that my driver's license was expired. It wasn't expired by just a few months either. It had been expired for almost a year! I was supposed to renew it by my birthday last year! I am such a nerd! I guess it's just a good thing that I didn't get pulled over in that time right? So I went right away to renew my license and was informed that I had to take the test since I didn't renew it within a certain amount of time. CRUD! Fortunately, I passed the test (barely). Who cares what the score is as long as you pass! I am just glad that I have a current license now.
