Dancing, walking every where, climbing, and laughing at strangers.

Turning into a toddler so fast I can't even grasp it.

New Chapter.

Hi ya'll. :)

After putting off college registration till the last minute, I managed to enroll into two classes for this semester. One on campus, one online. I am beyond excited. I'm ready to start this new chapter in my life. I want to come out of this stronger, smarter, and independent.

If you ask me why I put off registering for so long, I'd probably say... "because I feel guilty."
I feel guilty because I never actually graduated high school. I dropped out after my freshman year and just sort of slid my way into college without much effort. Though, I'm extremely blessed to have this opportunity, I don't always feel I deserve it.  Also, I didn't think registering would be so difficult last minute. Lesson learned.

I'm not going to take this for granted. I know that school will consume my life for the next few years, but I have to keep in mind that it is either this, or a job at Mcdonalds. I need to do this. Not just for myself, but for my future and my sons future.
I start next weeeeek!!
I soooo appreciate my sister, Sarah, for loaning me the money.
and I sooooooo appreciate the little old lady who has offered to watch Eli.

YAY!!!!!
I'm a 16yr old mom, and im in college.
I'd like to see you do that!

My little boy has literally grown so fast right in front of my face. One month Shy of a YEAR OLD. I haven't taken my eyes off of him this whole time and he still seems to surprise me. I can't believe how much he's capable of understanding. I've never practiced clapping hands or kissing with Eli, but when I requested it he somehow knew exactly what to do. He picks up on new things ALL the time. I asked him to throw the ball to me, and somehow, just like that.. he knew what needed to be done. He's so smart. And I'm pretty sure he knows more then I can even give him credit for. This is seriously my favorite age by far. He's so engaged and curious and not to mention, silly!

Here's some words I know he understands but still can't speak..

Grandpa
Where?
Tree
Flower
Shifter ( in the car)
Kiss me
Clap your hands
Im going to get you!
Throw it
Guitar
Mama
Food
Nana (boobies.)

Hes prety amazing  and beyond cute. I couldnt be more proud to say he's mine.
He's walking more and more everyday. Which I seriously love.

Even though he's growing and learning so fast... He's still my little baby who neeeds me. :)
and I'm loving every second.
SLOWWWW DOWNNNN.
