Well, yesterday was the Cardinals game versus Pittsburg. My wife decided to get tickets for the game for a couple of different reasons. The first was so that my son, who is 15 months old, was able to go to his first baseball game. The second reason was because my birthday today. We were able to get tickets in BIG MAC LAND, which is kind of cool, because this is where we sat for my daughter’s first baseball game. We were even in the same row, just a couple of seats down. This time was a little more hectic than the two times before because my daughter is FINALLY getting it with the potty training. About once an inning she would say “Daddy, I gotta potty”, so I would get up and go all the way up the stairs with her and run to the bathroom. We did this about 6 times throughout the game. My son started to get cranky around the bottom of the 6th, so my wife took him and put him in the stroller and walked to the Build-A-Bear shop in the stadium to get him a Cardinals t-shirt for his Build-A-Bear monkey he has at home. This is another tradition my wife and I started, anytime we go to a new place, that has a Build-A-Bear, we get the kids a t-shirt or something with the place’s name on it for their Build-A-Bear, if they don’t have one, we try to get them something with the places name on it for them to remember their first trip there. Back to the game, so at the bottom of the 7th or top of the 8th (around 10:00pm), my daughter had to potty again, so again, I took her and then we decided to leave, so that we didn’t have to fight as large of a crowd getting on MetroLink to come back home. When we got in the van, we put everything in, and before we left the parking lot, or shortly after, both kids where DOWN FOR THE COUNT. By the way, we ended up winning the game 6-4.

Busy Times
Well, this weekend was very busy and this week is going to be VERY busy. On Saturday, my wife had a Wedding Shower for her cousin who is getting married in November and my daughter had a Birthday party for a child from her daycare. Both of them at the same time, one in Ruma and one in Red Bud. After those both ended we went to South County to go shopping for material for my wife to make my kids Halloween costumes. Then to dinner and then to see my grandmother who is in a skilled nursing facility. She absolutely hates being there. The only reason she is there is because she had a hip repairment surgery on September 2nd. The surgery was more complicated and took longer than expected because not only did they have to repair her hip, they ended up having to reconstruct her entire femar bone because it was so messed up from the hip replacement surgery she had in 1994. On Sunday we went to church and then to lunch with my parents and then came home. I then found out that my cousin-in-law died on Sunday afternoon around 3:00p.m.This week is a hectic week as well and too much to do to even mention. Talk to all next week.

2 weeks in school
Well, It’s been two weeks now. Thankfully we have a holiday and have a LONG weekend. I can spend some time with my kids and get some homework done. I can start to think more about my interview paper for English. I can get some ACCOUNTING, BUSINESS, OFFICE SUITE, and PSCHYCOLOGY all done, as well. I am a little overwhelmed still with all my classes, but hopefully it will get easier as time goes on and I get used to being in school again. I am starting to get used to the whole idea of being in school. I am also thankful that I have been called back to work, well not until January, but have been contacted and asked back by H&R BLOCK for the upcoming tax season, I can’t wait. I loved that job. So, here I am only two weeks into school and already thinking about next semester and how to balance work, school, and home life all together. Well, that is still along way off, so for now, it is time to think about THIS SEMEMSTER only. This seems to be very difficult to come up with thing to write about. I am NOT a writer and don’t really enjoy it.
