I guess I will update this. I slept longer than I should have today and now I am up. This is the bad thing about working nights. I normally do my schedule for several days in a row but they way it worked out this week I am working every other day. I have no idea why anyone would want to space there days out like that. So I am trying to go to the day shift at work. I love working nights and I will again someday but for now it doesn't work for me. I am planning to go back to school and so is James. It is insane to try to work nights, take care of the kids, pay for daycare day and night (I can't get almost no sleep during the day and work all night), and try to function. So I have asked to move to days. I am hoping that it will happen by June so maybe I can start classes this summer but we will see.
My life is going to be super busy for the next two weeks. We are going to Disney on Thursday. In between that I have to get the house clean, laundry, pack, help with my sister's birthday party, work, and get my house ready for my friend's shower. I think that I like in a weird way overloading myself. I'm looking forward to a little vacation but not the flying. It will be different flying with a baby. Baby J will be 6 months old in a few days. I hope that he does well on the flight. Although we are flying to Orlando so if he does cry he won't be the only kid on the plane doing it. I think I have it planned out well enough to hopefully avoid any problems.
L has decided that he wants to join the school band next year. The school sent home forms for school next year. He gets to pick his elective for next year, sort of. They asked them to rank their top 3 choices. It's pretty cool though. James will have to go the parent info session for band. I don't mind L doing band I just hope he realizes how much he will have to practice. L is musically talented which is great and not so great. He has the ability to pick a song or instrument quickly the bad thing is that once he feels like he knows something he feels like he doesn't need to practice anymore. It drives me a little nuts.
Baby J is growing. He is growing a little too fast for me. I can't believe he is just a few days shy of being 6 months. He has changed so much. His personality is really coming out. He finally managed to roll over from his tummy to his back. He has been doing the back to tummy thing for awhile but now he can roll both ways. He still doesn't like being on his tummy except for the other morning when I found him sleeping in his crib on his tummy. He has started pulling my hair. That will have to come to a stop quickly. He is very grabby and it is cute at the moment but I know that it won't be for long.
Alright I am going to wrap this up before I get too frustrated with this laptop. It has a small keyboard and I have managed to almost delete this a couple of times by hitting the wrong keys.

What are y'all going back to school for?
Have fun at Disney! Seems like so many people we know have gone or are going there lately. I think we'll wait until our youngest is about 4 or 5, in the hopes that maybe he will remember it. That would make Livie about 9 or 10, and Millie 6 or 7, so those would probably be good ages for all of them to enjoy it.
@utlawgirl - I want to be an OB/Gyn and James is going to go to nursing school. He will be done long before me. His plan at this point is to go on and then become a CRNA.
We took L the first time when he was 9 and it was a great age to go. Once they are 36 to 42 inches they can ride all the rides there. I wish Baby J was older but we have to go right now because the trip that we paid for expires in May.
@happygirl7798 - It's awesome you're going on to be a doctor. Best of luck to both of you!
Good luck with the baby on the plane. Take it easy and enjoy Disney!
