Couple Months Later

OK, so my husband came home at the end of January. YAY!!!!!!! I have been a busy bee. So with school and my kids, I decided to be even more of an idiot and I went and got a part time job. Well, it was supposed to be a part time job, but lately I have been working about 35-40 hours a week. Thank goodness that I have just taken my finals yesterday. My next semester doesn't start for 2 weeks, so I get myself a good, long break (sarcasm is so hard to put into words)!!!! Again, thank goodness I have only three semesters left before I have my BS in criminal justice. Yay, I graduate in December!!!!!!
OK, so now onto the boys. Brenyn is on Spring Break and is driving Ryan and I nuts. We love it, even if we find ourselves amazed at the attitude he has been portraying. I think he is grasping the idea that he needs to use words instead of fists to get his point across. What a relief. We were really starting to worry about it, especially when I picked him up from school one day and found out he punched a little girl in the face. I made him bake cookies with me and give them to her as an apology (I OK'd it with her mom first). Brenyn has also started t-ball. He LOVES it. Of course, what is not to love, but this boy is going all out. He is the youngest and smallest on his team, but the joy is all over his face at practice. His first game is on April 5th and my only sadness is that I probably won't be able to go, due to work. We will see.
On to Euan. There isn't much to put out there right now. He is still gorgeous and the women at his day care love him. He really has the sweetest disposition of any little boy I have ever met. He is caring and he likes to help people. I see it being slightly altered whenever he is around Brenyn, but I figure that it is just a sibling thing to be following Brenyn's lead. Other than that, Euan's ears are still doing well. It's been almost a year since he had the tubes put in and as far as the dr's can tell, they are still there. If they are still there in 6 months, the dr's want to go in and remove them. We will see.
Ryan, the love of my life, is doing well. He has re-acclimated to the climate of Hawaii. Apparently, it is much hotter and more humid in the Philippines than in Hawaii, go figure. So the first two weeks Ryan was home, he was wearing sweats. Ah whatever!!!! Well, he is back at work now. He is in charge of about ten Marines. Oh, did I mention he was promoted to SSGT, it now takes an act of congress to demote him if he gets in trouble, not that he ever would. So he is in charge and sadly, we are unable to hang out with many of our old friends. Since Ryan is a staff nco, we can only hang out with staff nco's. I know it's dumb, but we have to deal. Ryan is excited that he only has a year left. His command is trying to get him to reenlist, but it would take about 50 million dollars to get him to sign another contract. He wants to go to school. So I am making him start now, hahahaha. I signed him up for an online English class. He might as well start getting those lower division general credits out of the way. The more school he gets done now, the less he will have to do when he gets out.
His birthday is on the 27th. I have no idea what to get him, but I am sure it will be expensive and have to do with video games. I am a PS3 widow.
OK, going to bed now. I have to work tomorrow and I need more than five hours of sleep!!!!!
