So what's new in the Mangelson family lately?
1. Shaun started school again.... it's been kinda rough.. I was used to having him around more often and helping out.. but now he is gone most of the time.. between work and school.. I usually see him for about 15 min in the morning and 2 hours at night.. of course those two hours he is usually doing homework and I give up on spending time with him and go to bed.. so sad I know but it's worth it.. this is really his last semester but he wants to retake his psychology class plus to keep the grant for next semester he has to have 12 units.. so he's going to try and take some Spanish classes that will count towards his Spanish major.. Hopefully it all works out and we can start applying to Universities.. We are applying all over with the hope that he will get into one of the schools. He hit a rough spot with his grades when we went through everything with Jake. It brought his GPA down but he's working hard to bring it back up...I'm kinda hoping we end up at BYU-Idaho.. I have such good memories from going to school there and I think that he would really like the air up there!! :-)
2. Jake is almost one year old!! He is 11 month at the end of this month and then Halloween is his birthday.. I can't believe that he is that old... and not only that but it means that in 2 months after his birthday we will be welcoming a new little one.. CRAZY!!! but I'm excited...
3.Jake is getting more exciting.. he says "da-da-da-da" and knows it belongs to Shaun.. A lot of times I'll be talking to Shaun on the phone and I'll let him talk to him.. now Jake comes up and grabs the phone and starts saying "da-da-da-da-da" into the phone.. it's super cute.. but he has failed to say ma-ma yet so I'm getting anxious waiting for him to say it.. He mostly makes a lot of noises with his mouth: farts, growling, he loves to blow on my belly or my cheek.. he thinks it's hilarious.. He also loves the word oopsie rght now. When I say it he usually does this cheesy laugh that kind of sounds like a lawnmower failing to start. He is funny and makes me happy... He isn't walking yet but he gets up on things and walks around holding on to it.. but mostly he loves to crawl.. I try and hold his hands to get him to walk and he just tries to sit back down.. or picks his feet up.. "booger face!!" I just really want him to walk before his little sister gets here. It would make life so much easier!!! :-)
4. I'm starting to look pregnant.. Before it just looked like I had added more weight to my already too large belly but now it's starting to stick out and is hard so it looks more like a pregnant belly.. I gave up any fascination I had of looking like a pregnant woman when I got pregnant again without losing all the weight I gained with JAke.
5. I'm excited for the new Fall line-up.. MY faves are Biggest Loser, Parenthood (I love this show!! it feels so real), America's Next Top Model, Survivor, and I'm patiently awaiting for Bones!!!! (It doesn't start until November or something like that!!) Oh and of course Psych.....so excited!! I know I'm a freak!!
6. Trevor is coming home!! Trevor is Shaun's younger brother!! He comes home in about 25 day!! I can't believe how fast it has gone!! I'm excited to see him.. Also one of my really good friends, Pisa, is coming home today.. I'm typing this as I wait to leave to go and greet him at the airport!! I can't wait!!!
7. I'm so excited for Autumn.. with this pregnancy I have been super hot and am now tired of the high 90's weather we have been having for the past couple of weeks. so not cool!! It's almost OCtober which means the weather needs to start cooling down!! PLEASE!! Speaking of October.. we love Halloween so we decorated our window.. I think it looks pretty sweet!!
