I havnt updated in several days so, here goes. Today Sal picks up his 2nd class of ANCOC, so thus starts the long hours for him, poor guy. He went to the Dr. Last week and his labs came back and his cholesterol is good, he is still waiting to find out about the arthritis. Today he has a podiatrist appt. to see if his arches are falling and if that is the reason for his lower back and hip pain.. Running miles everyday for 18 years wears on you after a while.. The kids are all doing great. School is going well and everyone is getting good grades and working very hard. Nicholas had his basketball physical and tryouts are in about 10 days, so he is looking forward to that. His last season playing highschool basketball. I think he is going to be sad his last game. Time is ticking for his highschool years, LOL.. then he will go for the biggest challenge of his life, the Army. Ill talk about how I feel about that another day because it makes me cry just typing that sentence. Ashlee is doing well. She and her boyfriend are still in love and none of us know how they feel, LOL.. She is hanging around friends more, so that is good. She is also working alot and hopes to do a sport this spring, or coach little kiddos for cheerleading. She is also talking about going through a nursing program at school and then continuing that after she graduates, but she changes her mind weekly, LOL.. Cassidy is good. She is just having fun as a Freshman and having a blast with her friends, and doing the teenage girl things. She is really looking forward to going to the Winter Ball with her friends. Anthony has decided to wrestle for school so today is his physical for that. Poor kid is going to be EXHAUSTED, practices are DAILY, MONDAY through FRIDAY.. It is the 1st time he has wanted to play ANYTHING except baseball. Dominic is good, he can count to 10 and sing his ABC's with help. He is a little sponge I swear. He has discovered that he likes oatmeal and that seems to be his favorite food at the moment, LOL.. He is going to be ELMO for Halloween and can say "TRICK or TREAT" or has he prounounces it, "TI TEE" I love this age... Roman, well he is just a dream baby. We really have been lucky with our babies, all healthy, good, easy going and he isnt any different. He just loves to smile and eat, thats about it, LOL.. and if he cant get his food fast enough, he will just patiently suck his thumb until he gets it. He goes in spurts as to trying a bottle. Somedays he will try it, others he just has nothing to do with it, LOL.. He loves the mama and bottles just wont do. I am good, I go to my Dr. appt (yes, I held off this long) But they caught me, LOL.. I am going to see about having some blood work done because I think my hormones or something are out of wack. Im losing more hair than normal, my joints hurt and Im tired, not exhausted just tired. Im stuck in a weight loss rut, LOL I need to get moving. Im giving myself goals of 10-15 lbs a month and going from there. Well, thats about it from this part of the world. The fall is here and we are loving it. Its my favorite time of the year and I hope everyone else takes the time to enjoy it :)
