Tate did pretty well this evening considering it was his first day having only 1 nap. He was in bed and sleeping by 8:00 pm which is only a 1/2 hour earlier than usual. He is not feeling too great though. Like I said in a previous post, he threw up this morning and then he had a couple pretty out of the ordinary bad diapers. I think he must have a little bug. Today he ate probably a quarter of the amount of food that he usually eats in a day and didn't want a lot to do with his milk either. He hasn't been feverish though, but now I am feeling like since he has a bug, I should be letting him sleep as much as possible. We'll see how tomorrow goes.
Sean and I decided to wait to eat dinner after Tate was in bed, so it was a late dinner for us. We had yummy chili and watched The Pursuit of Happiness. It was a little 'date night' for us and it was nice to just relax on the couch with my hubby. The movie was so touching and I sobbed. It made me really feel grateful for what I have and also made me realize how good I really have it. Not that I thought I had it bad, but it's nice to be reminded that even when things aren't always how I would like them to be, it could be much worse!
Tomorrow is church and housework for me. Sean works until 9:00 pm tomorrow night and then he is off the next 3 days. He still has class, but will at least be home by noon everyday. I am looking forward to having him around more these next few days and I know he has been having a rough time being away as well. This work/school schedule is really wearing on him (and me too!) and we are looking forward to his Christmas break so that we can have some much needed 'family time' that doesn't have to be interrupted by studying, class, studying, studying and more studying. I know this is all temporary, but it is so hard! Only 3 more semesters to go! Then we'll have a year break or so before Sean starts anesthesia school. Once that starts, it will be another 30 months before he will be done with school forever! I don't even want to think about that. I just want to get through these next 3 semesters! The other day I said to him, "are you sure you want to go to anesthesia school? Why don't you consider just being a nurse and forgetting about the whole anesthesia school idea?" It was kind of a joke, but I think deep down I hoped he would say, "you know, I was kind of thinking I might not want to go to anesthesia school anymore." YA RIGHT! He did NOT say that! Really, I just want him to be happy and I know that he wants so badly to be an Anesthetist, so that is what I want for him. He is doing a great job and I am SO PROUD of him and all of his hard work while still being a dedicated father and husband! I am so blessed!
