It's been a long time since I've posted to the blog. I started working and my free time has been cut short. When I have free time, I'm running errands, cleaning or relaxing. It has been a big adjustment for me. I haven't worked in years and years. I thought I was organized before. I'm not. I feel like we're always on the run now. In the morning I'm rushing Jenelle out the door so I won't be late for work. When I get home, I'm rushing to get dinner going and then school stuff ready for the next day. I hope this is going to get easier with time. I've been neglecting the blog. Sorry.
I'm glad January is over. It's my least favorite month of the year. Jenelle got a keyboard for Christmas and she enjoys playing around with it. We started piano lessons in January. We are taking lessons from another 1st grade mom. We are taking lessons every other week so there isn't a lot of pressure to practice every day. I don't know anything about music. I never had lessons with any kind of instrument. I sit and watch during Jenelle's lessons. I'm learning all about notes: quarter notes, half notes, etc. It's a lot of fun. I hope Jenelle sticks with it.
We also started swim lessons. Jenelle will not be wearing floaties in the pool this summer. She is making a lot of progress. We decided to do private lessons because group lessons seemed to be a waste of time. I will say swim lessons in the middle of winter is a huge pain. We have to shower and blow dry after each time. Her skin is getting dry, too. She came up to me one day and said, "My butt hurts." I slathered her up with lotion which only made it more uncomfortable. Poor thing.
