Progress

This has been an interesting week.

Alyssa and I are enjoying our classes. The subjects are fun and the teachers are good. But what has really made a difference is not having kids with us. Odin has been in school now, but Freya is also with Brandy during the day. I had a few worries about this initially, but she's taken to it really well and we actually get to be students! We can be on campus without holding or pushing a kid around, and we don't have to restrict ourselves to studying in those particular rooms on campus which are good fore parents and acceptable for small children to be loud in.

Freya's also been a lot more talkative lately. I suspect it has to do a lot with being at Brandy's. June is pretty talkative, and probably talks to Freya a lot because she's so interested in her, whereas Odin doesn't actually talk to Freya as much as he just plays with or near here.

Odin has been having some trouble with bedtime lately. He's sometimes scared of things or doesn't like his bed, and recently he's asked a few times for his old crib. Last night we brought it over from our old apartment with the last load and put it in their room for him. He slept in it last night just fine, and we think he liked it better. It's weird, and I'm not sure why he asked for that, but that's how it is now. His full we'd gotten him earlier is now in storage, I bet he'll want to go back to it in a few weeks or a couple months.

Friday night I was at our old place until 1:30am making tons of trips up and down those three flights of stairs trying to get all our stuff out and clean the place. It was really difficult but I finally got it done ad now we've turned in our keys. Goodbye to the old place.

I better go wake up Alyssa, she has lab time this morning......
