Well, I don't have any pictures right now, but the latest news is...
Jarel is doing well in his potty training, but I believe his motivation is he's GOING TO PRE SCHOOL!!!!
that's right, next month, Jarel will move to the pre school class and he's very excited. He keeps saying, 'I'm going to pre school', however it's not quite that understandable :)
He's growing fast and talking better and making more and more demands.
ah yes, He had his well check visit and he's a whopping 33 lbs and 3 feet 2 inches tall - he's such a runt :)
James is getting excited about birthday (which is many months away) and starting kindergarten (even further away) but I guess he's jumping on that bandwagon since Jarel is moving to a new class.
Nikyle - we're still working with her. Trying to find some interests that she'll enjoy. She put on her pajama's recently, which was a pair of shorts Jamere gave her and a t-shirt...can I just tell you that she looked like she belonged on a basketball court :)
I'm gonna try, between trying to play basketball or running track, either way- she's got the girl jock look and the long legs to go with :)
Jamere - he's just becoming a true teenager. Every time I turn around, can I go here, can I go there, can so an so come here... He get's annoyed with my demands that he have a plan, be home by a certain time and inform me of the transportation arrangements ahead of time, but he's working with me. A couple of weeks ago he forgot the 'communication' factor and he lost his 'outing' privileges for 2 weeks.
Swedish announced they were laying off 200 people (actually 175 staff)...that put me in fear of losing a good job. We even had some people let go from our department this week too. There's still another couple of rounds and so yea, I'm fearing the possible loss of my job.
Leave it to Bush to kick us all in the ass for electing a black president.
You all take care -
