Past Two Months of Updates

Wow how time flies by!! In just a few short days it will be April and I still have yet to post updates for February and March. Well, let me get everyone back up to speed to the happenings at the Anderson household.

In February, I had started a part time position at a GYN clinic. It has been great, I worked two days a week and still had the pleasure of being home with Paige and handeling the affairs of the household, all the while taking two online classes from PCC. Monte was deep into his winter term at school and was prepping for finals come March. Paige on the other hand was being sweet and adorable. We had gotten her ears pierced and she loves to put on make-up(when she sneaks into mom's), chap stick(she wouldn't be my daughter if she wasn't addicted to chap stick) and of course she has to have her nails painted at all times. A little high maintenance..But nontheless we love her so much. Along comes March since Feb. is such a short month.

The first two weeks of March was complete mahem. Monte and I were both getting ready for finals and I ended up starting to work full time. The gal that was training me went into labor a few weeks early and I am covering for her while she is gone. Good news is that I don't have to pay for a sitter, my gram has been a great blessing and loves to watch Paige. The only sacrifice I make is driving the one hour to drop her off. More good news this month is that Monte and I both passed our finals!! Whew! This past week, we were on Spring Break and were able to spend some time up in Northern Idaho. It was a blast, we played minature golf, swam, exercised and spent some needed relaxation and time together as a family. It was wonderful to see that Paige is becoming more independant and she wanted to swim all by herself. Of course, we made sure that safety came first and purchased her a swimsuit that contain flotation devices in the upper portion so she basically could bob along in the pool. However, she was dogpaddling across the pool and loved to jump into daddy's arms. Needless to say, when it came to swim time, Mom was not in the picture. This was just Daddy/Daughter time. When it was time to come home, Mom headed back to work and Monte took Paige out to a movie in the theater. They ended up watching Princess and the Frog. It seemed like they had a good time. Well that is pretty much the update. Monte and I will be starting school again on Monday and I will continue to work full time until the beginning of May. I hopefully will post something for April in April. Until then!!!
