I don't know if anyone will even bother reading this after so long! I started grad school at BYU a little over a month ago. Life has not been the same since. Jeff sort of lost his job and decided to go back to school as well. It has been quite the experience for him. He is having to relearn how to study and do pretty much everything related to school. Luckily, he started with a light load. I have been super super busy trying to keep up with everything in my program. I'm taking 5 classes and working with 2 clients. I aslo TA for someone, and spend about 10 hours every other week grading quizzes. My spare time is getting smaller as the weeks progress and midterms come closer. I am going down to St. George this week with my classmates to do hearing screenings for the World Senior Olympics. I am excited and nervous. And Jeff will be all by himself with Brookie for 3 days.
He has been an amazing support since I started school. He takes care of everything at home, so I don't have to worry about it. He stays home with Brook a lot. She has been going to daycare a few days a week. We are in the process of looking for someone new because this first lady has not been what we expected. She presented herself very well and had an impressive "resume," but almost every time Jeff went to pick up Brook, she was in a crib while this lady was on Facebook, and the other kids were not being supervised. We started to think that this was happening too often, and we were getting the impression that Brook was spending a lot of time in a crib. I really hope we can find someone fast. Jeff has a light load this week, but he starts his block classes next week.
Life sure is crazy these days. I'm just so glad Jeff has been able to be home with her more the past few weeks. She has bonded with him so much, and it's adorable to see. It makes me a little jealous b/c that used to be me, but I have to get through school! I really do enjoy it. I am learning so much. I just hate missing so much of what is going on with little Brookie. She is gorwing up so fast! She is already climbing like a monkey. We can't stop her no matter what we do. She is getting so tall that we can't keep hardly anything out of her way. She is full of energy! And I swear she gets bigger and cuter everyday.
So there you have it. As a result, I have become an even worse blogger than before! I will try to update at least once a month.

Cute pictures! Her hair is getting even longer. She is a cute little thing and I bet she loves spending so much time with Jeff. And don't worry, I think the bond she has with you will always be in place. She won't remember these times anyway. I hope school goes well for both of you, but you're both smart so I'm sure you'll get back in the swing of things. Good luck! I hope you don't get too burnt out!
