Potty Training

So I am on to the next child. Although Ashlynn is not potty trained yet, but she is when she is home even down to pooping. But she does not do good at all when we leave the home. I think that is due to her Autism, and the fact that she is in her own world, and just forgets to think about it. When we are home she does fine, and has very little to no accidents. Ashlynn is loving school, and loves to ride the bus. So that makes putting her on the bus much easier. She comes home everyday singing songs, and just happy as can be. The bus driver tells me everyday that she just loves the bus, and sings wheels on the bus the whole time. Poor guy that is an hour worth of Ashlynn singing for 4 days out of the week.

With that being said Coleton went potty for the first time yesterday, and has wanted to go ever since. He has never gone on the potty before that. We have tried many times to get him to go with no luck. How ever Scott was putting the kids in the shower, and Coleton wanted to get on the potty so we put him up there, and he did it he went pee. I am so excited. So he wore underwear all day yesterday, and only had 2 accidents. Pretty good for the first day ever going potty. Today we continued our efforts, and he is loving it. He loves to fart on the potty so i am hoping that means that pooping wont be a problem. From what I understand that is the hardest part of potty training a boy. Ashlynn has been a pain to potty train so I was not excited to do another kid. But as it turns out Coleton is catching on very well. He has only had one accident today, and it was the cutest thing. He was playing in the backyard, and he came in crying, not really thinking I was trying to figure out where he got hurt. So the sweet boy that I have said "No mommy, no ouchies, dough potty." So I looked down and he had peed in his pants a little tiny bit. So I took him in to the potty, and he went pee. He loves to go all by himself, and he can do everything all by himself. So like it or not Coleton is being potty trained.

As for Scott he is ending his spring semester, and that means he only has a year left of pre reqs. So we are half way done. To be honest it has not seemed that long yet. I feel like we just left Vegas yesterday, but its been almost a year. WOW!!! He is still loving school, but he is getting straigh B's this semester. OUCH! So he has asked me if he can quit work for the fall semester cause his classes include. Organic Chem one with lab, Calculus with analytic Geomotry, Human Anatoy and Physiology one, and a statistics class. All pretty difficult classes. He says he needs alot more time to study. So I guess he wont be working. Not that I dont blame him. But Scott still loves school.

I have a job interveiw, at Thunderbird hospital tomorrow, and I am applying to be a patient transporter just so I can get my foot in the door at a hospital that is closer in town, that I can work at when I get my Phlebotomy certificate. I am also doing it because Scott wont be working this fall, and we are going to need some money. So that is stressing me out. not that he isnt a good dad, but nobody can be a mom to your own kids, but you. So I am feeling a little guilty for leaving them, but its only a time in our lives, and I am sure they will be grateful when I can spoil them some day. I took my finals for my online classes this weekend, and I got a B in both classes, which is not bad considering I finished 3 weeks early, and did not really study that much for the classes. So I thought that was good. I will be starting the Phlebotomy program in august, and will finish in November. So I cant wait to get that done.

Scott has also informed me that due to the cost of applying for MWU that he will not be applying there. We are going to move to Oregon when he is done with his classes here in Arizona. So we are moving to Oregon in a little over a year. So I am really excited for that. He is just going to try really hard to get in at Pacific University. Which will most likely happen right after we get there. That is our hope anyway. They are a little less competitive of a school to apply for seeing as how they have not been open long. At least for the 3 year Doctorate of Pharmacy program. So that is our life in a nut shell. And if you made it all the way through this post you must really love me.
