February in Review

Oh my goodness. Baby Thor is growing up! He shall now be called Toddler Thor. He would have started Nursery at church today, except he was sick, so Mom stayed home with him.

I guessed I must have missed a post for January. Sorry. We'll see what I can remember.

February ended up being a great month. For one thing, we got our tax return. Thank you for returning our money Uncle Sam. We went on our first real date since we've been here. If you're ever in Wisconsin you should check out Sushi Box. It's cheap and good.

We also took Toddler Thor to a restaurant for the first time. I could feel people's eyes when he would scream (which only happened a couple of times), but I would love for them to take over for me. It didn't help that the service was really slow at VIP Asian Cuisine (or whatever it's called).  One of us needs to be constantly entertained.  Overall, it was a stressful successful experience.

It was a really cold February, with single digit temperatures being the norm. March looks to be more promising so far.  We took Toddler Thor out to the swings and slides yesterday because it was so warm. (45 is warm, okay.). He loved it! A little too much in fact. He threw a tantrum when we had to go inside. He's been doing lately when he doesn't get what he wants.

School's been good, settling down. So much better than last semester, for sure. Looking forward to getting into the lab even more when I can stop being a TA.

Anyway, that's the update for this month.
