Beautiful February Weekend
Sunday, February 22nd, 2009It’s been a beautiful February weekend.
Friday night, I finished my first C# project (which really sucked by the way) and submitted it for grading. I’m rethinking this whole grad school thing. It was much easier the first time around before I was married and had kids. Then again, it’s only 3 projects per class and 10 classes in all. That makes me about 3% of the way towards another masters degree.
Saturday, after grocery shopping, we decided to stay home and enjoy the nice day. We spent a good bit of time working with Tristan on a new skill: riding a bicycle.
Tristan has a hard time taking risks or trying new things. For example, if we plan to put him on a new theme park ride, he cries the entire time we are in line, but then enjoys the ride and immediately wants to ride it again. Same thing yesterday. He cried the whole time we were trying to get him to pedal, and didn’t enjoy it until he realized that he was accomplishing something.
Sunday, we had childcare at church. We’ve worked in childcare since the church began — almost two and a half years — but today was the first time we had ever done it outside of the baby room. We were in the 18 month – 3 year old room which was an entirely new experience. I think that is my favorite age of kids. There were 12 of them! Follow that with some chocolate chip pancakes from IHOP and an afternoon nap and you have a great stay-cation weekend.
