After 8.5 years away from any type of schooling, I have decided to return to college! I will be attending Rasmussen College Online and studying medical transcription. I am so lucky that I will be able to take all of my classes totally online, which will fit into my schedule so well. I will be able to do school work in my down time with the kids while I am at home (naptime, bed time). I am nervous and excited all rolled into one. My first classes start on August 11. The first two classes will last for six weeks. From that time on, I will be taking three classes at a time. I would like to take a moment to thank my fabulous husband for being so supportive and encouraging through all of this. I couldn't do this without you!
We are sort of on a mini-family vacation for the next few days....Brad and I are both off from work through Monday. Today we are taking the kids to see the Wiggles at the Target center. What they don't know is that their cousins Nick, Eric, and Audrey will be sitting really close to them with Auntie Sara and Uncle Reed (should be fun!) right after the Wiggles we have to go to New Horizon (my work) for an open house (It's my day off and I still have to go, yuck!) Tomorrow we are headed to the Mall of America so that I can fulfill a childhood dream of meeting my favorite band as a kid, the New Kids on the Block. I am so excited, I can hardly contain myself. I bet the guys will be cuter in person, than on the posters I used to have plastered to my bedroom walls! On Saturday we are headed up to Onamia for the Rogers family reunion. It will be fun to get to see most of my cousins (there are 17 of them) and their children (I think my grandma has like 30+ great-grandchildren)....I will try to post photos of all these events next week, which may be hard with school, etc!
Christopher went in for his 15 month well check yesterday. He now weighs 21 pounds, 7 ounces and is 31 1/2 inches tall. His doctor was not concerned about his weight this time because she said it has started to go in the right direction. He is a pretty skinny boy, but he eats like a horse . I think its because the boy cannot sit still!
Sydney goes to preschool screening on Wednesday. Can you believe its time for her to start school already?! I know that we can't.
Garden update: Tomatoes are starting to get red!! We have about 14. We also have 2 zucchini so far!
Have a great day everyone!

Good luck with school Stac, you'll do fine! Brad is quite the hubby you got there!
Good seeing you at the reunion...all of you! Your kids are growing fast!
I am jealous that you have some red tomatoes! We have 6 plants with about 15 tomatoes on each plant and not one, yes NOT ONE, is red yet! Our Zuccini's are doing good though! They are all quite large!
Love you all!
