its back...yet again...

Reiko broke his right shoulder yesturday, he hadn't been using it for a few days prior, but wouldn't complain of any pain if we moved it for him, so I assumed it was on the way out...not sure. But Derek was picking him up yesturday, while I was napping after a restless night with the little man, and he heard a pop/crack in the shoulder area, so we splinted and medicated him and all was good. Last night he was up a few times an hour every hour, so to say I am exhausted today is a bit of an understatement. And boy was he grumpy this morning, its not even 9 yet and I have put him down for a nap. He is so pissed off that he can't use that arm, that he just yells and throws everything right now...and I have little patience for the tantrums right now, which probably sounds cold and heartless, but its hard not to get annoyed with his constant yelling when he isn't sleeping worth crap lately. Otherwise he has been really good, talking like crazy, he started saying "GRANDPA" and "DADDY" he always said dada, but now he has moved it to daddy! The other day though he randomly started throwing up, no reason for it and he was fine the next day. I was quite worried it was the beginning of pneumonia, cause that is how they started last year at this time. Thankfully all is well there. Reiko is definitely starting to get more attitude though, he throws alot of tantrums now, yells at me, dad and his brother but he has a wonderful spunk to him.

Kai finished of Kinderoo last week while I was in Montreal with Reiko for his treatment, they did a special graduation for the kids too, that was very cute from what I was told. Kai did very well, and he is more than ready for Kindergarten on Sept 9th! We have been working on his cutting and he is really really good for a 3 year old! I am quite impressed, I said to him last night "OH KAI, I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!" and he goes "OH MOMMY, I AM SO PROUD OF YOU TOO!" Glad that I can impress him lol. He is heading to African Lion Safari the end of this month with Oma, he is going to be so excited, and on Friday he will be going mini golfing with Grandpa, we are trying to keep him busy before school starts! I still can't believe my little baby is growing up. Here are some pictures of him.

Oh so many memories...he will always be my baby.

Its been a pretty good month for me, haven't done much with the weightloss, but on August 7th my sister and I went to see NKOTBSB (NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK/BACKSTREET BOYS) we were totally there to see BSB, I am the biggest Backstreet Boys fan, the concert was amazing, was such good memories. Finished 2 of my courses this month, passed with a 96% in my computer class, and just did my other exam on Monday, and probably get my results until the end of the month, she hasn't even done our assignments yet so I have no idea where I am in that class, which is alittle frustrating..or alot frustrating...I think I aced the exam though, studied real hard on it and pretty much knew everything right away on the exam. Reiko's Montreal appt went really good this time, no problems at all, and we even got to meet Dr. Fassier, who is a world reknowned surgeon who will do all Reiko's surgeries. He was a wonderful man, and I look forward to seeing the work he will be able to do on Reiko someday. I signed up for 3 more courses starting in Sept and Oct, looking forward to getting more done, at this rate I will hopefully be done next fall! It's going so very fast, and I love the school work, its nice to do stuff for myself, to accomplish something. The only thing I really do not like are essay's, they are hard for me, and seem confusing with all the things you need to do with it.

Derek wasn't able to do his triathalon this week, which he was disappointed it, they changed the day, it was on the monday, but moved to the sunday, and he was working the saturday night, and registration was at 730 and he worked til 8. next year though. and he is planning on doing his own triathalon the end of the month.

There really isn't much else to say. Here are some recent pictures.

Take Care everyone.
