Life is crazy right now! I cannot find the time to get on here and blog. I've been extremely tired lately and unable to feel rested. Even when my parents were here and I was sleeping in an extra 2+ hours, napping, going to bed by 8, and not cooking or cleaning a thing, I was still so exhausted. I thought it was all part of this pregnancy, but just found out yesterday that I've had a UTI. Never had one before, but it turns out that it is very common during pregnancy. That explains it I guess! Hopefully now I'm on the road to much more energy! I'm actually very thankful that is all it was. The nurse left a very concerning message on my cell phone that I got Friday during my lunch, saying that she needed to go over some results with me and to call back as soon as I could. Last week I had just had some routine blood work taken. I immediately called back, but they were closed for an hour an a half for lunch. I had another teacher watch my class while they were at recess so I could call them back. Of course all 3 principals walked right by me talking on my cell phone while my kids were at recess... But after I heard that message so many horrible things were going through my head, so I was very glad to hear it was just an infection.

Anyways, I thought I would jump on and update a little about Jack. He is growing and growing, and as always, is so much fun. As I write this, he is sitting with a book behind the curtain. I can just see his little legs sitting there. So funny! He has started to mimic what others are saying. The words he says somewhat consistently are mama, dada, ball, bye-bye, hi, and Jack. He definitely knows what all of those mean. He also repeats 'ya' when you said it, but he has no clue what it means. He just knows how to say it. He has also been doing the sign for more (when prompted) when he wants more food. He loves to walk while holding on to your hands, and he goes so fast.  As he has been from the start, he is always on go and wanting to be discovering new things. He loves to wave and clap. He has three teeth on the bottom now, and the top two have sprouted through just barely. He's been somewhat more irritable than usual lately due to teething. His hair is getting so long, but Colin wants to wait to get it cut. :) He eats about 3 jars of baby food a day. He doesn't take a bottle at all anymore. On the rare occasion that he does have milk while I'm at work, he takes it from his sippy cup. Typically he just eats baby food, cheesy puffs, fruit puffs, and yogurt melts while I'm working.
