February is already flying by!

It's Feb. 12th and we are already approaching Bryan's big 40th birthday and Valentines Day. Big weekend and I wish I was a little more prepared. I've thought a lot about it but seriously...at this point there isn't one thing that Bryan needs, or even wants, that he can't or doesn't just go out and buy himself. My brother suggested a trip to San Francisco which would be amazing, but we just went to Vegas less than two months ago and I can't imagine Bry taking time off again so soon. Besides, our Europe trip is coming up!!! Yay! Counting down and so excited! May 25th is coming and we are so pumped!
At this point I guess the b-day/valentine weekend looks like it will consist of dinner and a movie. I wouldn't mind seeing Avatar. We'll see if I can even drag Bryan to the movie theater at all! :) Jessie is heading home which I'm sooo ready for! Two weeks can really drag sometimes. She did make a big decision and will be back at Mizzou this fall. As sad as that makes me, I am happy she is going to go back. It's a grown up decision and as much as it's been hard for her to be so far away...is 4 hours considered far? :) ...it's a much better school and she'll be able to go further by staying. We WILL have her home for the summer though so it's not all sad! :)
The therapy situation with Evan has moved forward as we thought. Our last team meeting working with Matt will be in a few weeks. Evan is doing fine although we've upped his medication and he about drove me insane Wednesday evening. He was just wired! Lots of light flipping and overall being demanding. He just won't take no for an answer! One thing I can say is that he is persistent. That boy can ask for chocolate milk for over an hour without giving up...that's for sure!!
Well, it's been a good month so far but I think we are all ready to move forward into Spring. Too cold and we're just ready for more light in the evenings!

love your blog...Hang in there with Evan, I wish we were closer so I could help you out with him...even though I know your kids help you out tons, Luke is my child who can be consistent with things he really want too. its not chocolate milk, its just treats...I give in way too much.

Hope Bryan had a great birthday! and I am happy you get Jessie for the summer at least. I am sure it's so wierd to have her all grown up.
love you guys.
