Quick update
Sorry I've been so slack on updating. I actually typed out a long post the other day but when I tried to post it I got an error message and just did not feel like going through all that again. But here we go, in truncated fashion:
1) Scott did not get the job. Not sure why. It's really frustrating.
2) He's testing with the post office again next week. He did this in Asheville but it took them forever to come up with a position for him, and when they did it was a temp spot with no guaranteed work. I know you have to get your foot in the door somewhere, but we just can't do with a salary like that. Raleigh seems to have its shit much more organized, though.
3) Just returned from a fabulous weekend with 'the girls' in Pigeon Forge, TN. There was much rafting, drinking, and eating to be had. I'm still recovering.
4) Ian is doing great - he will be moving to the 3 year old room in June. We're nervous about that - he loves his room and his teachers so much. I'm sure he'll adjust well, though.
5) We did bedtime boot camp a few weeks ago and I am happy to report that he will now go to sleep on his own. This has been wonderful - bedtime has been greatly shortened and now consists of reading 5-6 books, singing a few songs, and telling him goodnight. Before we did this bedtime could stretch for up to two hours. We're all much happier now. :) Ian is proud to be a 'big boy'.
6) Still no luck on the potty training. We might give it another go this weekend.
7) For Easter weekend we will be sending Ian to his grandma's on Friday after an Easter egg hunt in the neighborhood. Saturday he is going to another Easter egg hunt with his grandma, then we're all going over to her house that evening for Easter dinner (which will probably be Chinese take out). Sunday we're relaxing at home and getting laundry done - prep for yet another long work week.
8) My CFP exam is one month from today and panic has begun to sink in. I've got to get to work. I guess I should be studying rather than typing this, so bye. :)
