Its Been Awhile

So its been awhile since I've posted. It was so busy with the ending of school, and frankly after it was all over I didn't even want to LOOK at my computer for awhile. But it over (for summer) and Now I am feeling better. I passed two of my classes with a B! YAY!! I failed my math class (suck) but the instructor was cool and gave me a W instead of an F (I didn't even ask for it!) so that it would not effect my GPA. What an awesome teacher. I've got my classes for next semester all picked out. I will be taking the same math class again. I am going to sit down with my text book and actually try to teach this stuff to myself so that I can pass this class next semester with an A or B. I wanna kick ass!
Cain had his one year today. He is growing well. 74th percentile for height(30.5in) 84th for head circumference and 96th for weight(25.6lbs). The doc said that we need to start giving him regular milk and that that would probably help turn him on to table foods, because he doesn't eat them. He eats graham crackers, goldfish, saltines. He'll eat ground beef in small pieces, strawberries, and bananas. But he wont eat the toddler raviolis, he won't eat any other kind of food. The doc said that once we start weaning him off formula that that should help him eat regular food. So we start tomorrow (I can't bring myself to deny my love his bottle on the same day he got shots). I cried with him when he got his shots. Its so hard to have to hold your little guy down so that someone can stick him with a needle and inflict pain upon him. I hate it. It was funny though, the MA who gave him the shots, at first he was all smiles for her and flirty. After the shots he cried everytime she tried to talk to him! It was kinda neat to see him associate the two.
Cain's birthday party is saturday. Ive been cleaning like crazy. Our backyard looks good! I am gonna inflate the small pool so that Cain and Emily and the other kids can play in it. Ive got most of the food bought. I've got to go to frys and get the cake ordered. I've got lots of candy and little trinkets for the candy bags. I can't wait to have my family over for the little guy!
His actual birthday is Thursday, and since Jav is off that day we are going to take the little guy to the Zoo for his birthday. It'll be fun to do something as a family, since we so rarely have time off together anymore. I took Thursday and Friday off to spend with my lil man.
Cain's cousins, Aunt and Uncle (Jav's brother, sister in law and kiddos) are going to come by on their way to KS. I wish they were staying in Vegas. It was so fun to go visit them. I wish that they could have made it in time for Cain's party. It would have been so fun to have them there. They are fun people. The kids are a hoot! I love them :)
Speaking of Vegas, I seriously want to try and get out there for my birthday. I really liked it there and I left with still so much to see. So I want to go back. I want to go back and I want to make it a yearly vacation. I don't know that that is feasable but certainly something to wish for. I didnt think I was gonna like Vegas as much as I did. Its so fun!
Time for work, so I leave pics!
