Ok, so I haven't talked about school in a while here, so here is the news!
I am now in "intermediate" Nursing classes. They all last about 7-8 weeks and there are 5 of them. I took my first one which was Behavioral Health which is basically mental health. It was awesome. I realllllly liked it. I had AMAZING teachers who I love DEARLY! They have been great to me. So supportive and helpful on more levels than class. I am so happy I had that class first because I am hoping it will help me in the future as a student and eventually a Nurse. I ended up with a B in the class, which I am more than stoked about. I am so happy I did not end up with a C in the class. Nursing school is sooooooo hard for me. I just don't always have the motivation to study because I am so tired. I want to just come home and see my beautiful babies. I want to have fun and not worry about grades. So, I have to FORCE myself to study and work on assignments. I can not wait for all this to be over and for me to be WORKING in the hospital.
So the class I am in now is a Adult Nursing class and it will be over in early May. It is waaaaay harder. I am going to be on a Cardiac floor in the hospital which will be hard but a great place to learn.
I still have another Adult nursing class left and a Pediatric Nursing class and this summer I have Maternity!!!!! I am SOOOOOO excited for maternity. That is what I reallllllly want to do. I could end up not liking it, but I really hope I love it like I think I will.
In the pediatric nursing class, some of the students end up on a Pediatric Cancer floor which will be incredibly sad, so I am not sure how I will do with that. I am terrified to do Peds because I have my own 2 kids and seeing sick kids will break my heart. Both Adult health Nursing classes are reallllllly hard, but I am hoping I can pull through and do well!!!
Sorry if this bored you, but if anyone is interested, now you know what my track is like ahead of me. I will update once this nursing class is over (if anyone is interested)!!!!!
BTW, I have not mentioned the gen ed classes I have been taking.. I have had an A&P 1 and I am currently in A&P 2. I also have had a Medical terminology, and now I am in Psych growth and development. I have a Microbiology class this summer, and an English class this fall!!!! Then in Spring of 10 I have the last nursing class, and graduate in MAY!!!!! WOOOO HOOOOO CAN"T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!

Small problem...
Readers BEWARE:
THIS POST IS ALLLLLL ABOUT POTTY TRAINING A 2 YEAR OLD. IT INVOLVES WORDS THAT MAY BE DISTURBING TO SOME. THE INFO IN THIS POST MAY MAKE SOME UNCOMFORTABLE. IF YOU HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH POTTY TALK, PLEASE SKIP THIS POST AND CHECK BACK LATER WHEN MY POSTS DON'T CONTAIN WORDS THAT HAVE TO DO WITH BODILY FUNCTIONS. THANK YOU AND PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!
I have a slight problem with the potty training....
My son gets grossed out very easily. I mean, all the time. When I suck out Lori's nose (you know, snot, cold, nose sucker... gross.. but still) he GAGs and almost throws up. Same thing when I change her diaper if there is poop, or if he even thinks there is poop in it. I usually have to yell "THERE'S NO POOP NOAH, IT'S JUST PEE" or "DON'T LOOK AT IT NOAH" (if there is poop). So now on to the potty training issues...
So on Monday, Noah pooped in the potty and when he looked in the toilet and saw it, he said "What is that???" and he looked scared. So I just said it's your poop, good job, blah blah blah, he got his treat, and we went on with the day!! So the next morning he pooped in the potty again, almost gagged when he saw it, but I distracted him and we moved on. WELL NOW he refuses to poop in the potty. Earlier I put him in underwear and he peed in them twice and I was out of underwear, so I put a pullup on him, and he POOPED right when I put it on him... I think it was about 3 minutes before he went!!! So I guess he is so totally grossed out, he refuses to look at it in the potty.
SOMEONE HELP ME!!!! My son is starting to refuse to go potty at all and I think this could go way bad. I just dont know what to do. Does anyone have any suggestions????

Accomplishments
YIPEE I am really happy right now.... Reasons will come shortly, first let me update.
This is spring break for me. I am in Nursing school, and I have a whole week off. During the last semester and a half, my life has been CRAZY!!! Noah is going to be 3 in July and Lori will be 1 in MAY (I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT). I am in 3 classes, 2 other than nursing. So when I am not at school, I am doing one of 3 things... Studying, Taking care of the family, or SLEEPING!!!!!!!!!!! Needless to say, my house has been a disaster area. I do not have the time or energy clean the house. We are lucky if we have clean laundry (well more like folded clean laundry... I do start loads and then just leave them in baskets because I don't have time to fold them...) and clean dishes. This would be the reason my dear friends haven't been invited to our house in so long!!!
Anyway, on to the happiness..
Bryant took off this whole week so he could stay home and help me clean up. We want to go through things and throw stuff away and put things away. Today we got our bedroom done and our front living room. We got everything so good, I was even able to eat dinner at my TABLE!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!!:)
So yesterday, I decided that while I was out of school, we should potty train Noah. He started yesterday and has only peed a tiny bit in his pullups and has been peeing in the potty. Well today he POOPED in the POTTY!!!!! I am so happy. He is doing reallllllly good, so I hope this means he will continue to do well. He goes to preschool tomorrow, so I am not sure how that will go... But we will see!!!!!:)
Anyway, I am really pleased with my spring break so far!!! Alot ACCOMPLISHED!!!!

SNOW DAY!!!
So it snowed yesterday/all night... Which I am SOOO happy about! I had a test today in Psych that will now not be until 2 weeks from now, because next week is Spring Break!!! (We only meet on Mondays) I ALSO had a test that was supposed to be on Thursday but we were supposed to finish the material today. I am hoping that test will be postponed as well!!!:) Noah went outside and played, and we let his "friend" Sunny (our lab mix) play out side with him. It was so funny:)
