We knew that it was going to be a rough week after all it was the first big exam of Jacobs med school career and it was also going to be given on the same day as his birthday! He studied so much I thought my head was going to explode he spent long night days at the school and then came home around 7 and went right back to studying for another 2-3 hours each night!
Jacob was spending a lot of time at the school as well as all of the other students so we did a lot of chilling at home on Monday I was exhausted sleep hasn't been coming easy to me for a couple of weeks now and I had no energy to do anything, Meggie was able to get me out of my funk on Tuesday her and Brie invited us to go to the beach with them on Tuesday so we graciously accepted because I knew kohl was going to go crazy if we didn't get out of the house soon!
We had a blast at the beach and when we got ready to head home Kohl was being so naughty, I was getting very frustrated with him, he kept running away from us and getting way far ahead of us on our walk home, and me not wanting to scare these poor two girls off buried the raging beast inside me from just paddling his bum right in front of them! We were almost home and Kohl takes off running and I am nicely yelling to him "please wait...please wait" of course he doesn't and he darted around the fence so I couldn't see him anymore, knowing that he would never cross the street by himself (because I fear for my life when I have too) I just keep walking assuming that he will be waiting on the corner for us to come, next thing I know my land lord is standing at the fence yelling "Kohl stay there!" "Do not cross!" I panic instantly and Meggie ran up the side walk and grabbed his hand! I was so mad I thought I was going to loose it right there on the corner however I kept my cool and got the kids into the house and we said our goodbyes to Meggie and Brie and I shut the door and instant rage shot through my body fighting back the screaming demon about to erupt from my mouth I took Kohl into the bathroom and got him in the shower and was able to control my self and have a talk with him about what he had done (this is totally out of character for me...I yell ALOT).
We spent the rest of the day on the couch snuggling because I was grateful that he was home with me and not at the hospital after almost darting into traffic but I was still very bugged by the whole thing and the fact that he didn't listen to me!
Wednesday was another bad day Katelyn is trying to cut teeth and is miserable most of the time, napping has become and few and far in between thing for her, it always seems that Kohl capitalizes on these moments with her and makes her more miserable, resulting in myself being more miserable, this was a lot of pestering kind of day for Kohl he would just not stop! Pretty sure he spent most of the day in time out that day LOL! That night when Jacob got home we had dinner and got ready for bed and off we all went to get some sleep except for me....sigh......I had a breakdown....I cried like a 2 year old who just dropped her ice cream cone on the ground! Jacob asked me what was going on and I told him it had just been a bad couple of days I just needed a good cry and I would be fine which is exactly what I did!
Thursday....I decided to make my first trip to Kingstown with just me and the kids! Jacob had a study day Thursday to prepare for the exam on Friday which was also his birthday! We headed into town to see if we could find him a little something for his birthday, so we hopped on a van and off we went into town! Kohl loves ride in the vans down here we actually call them "reggae buses" but that is something the Medical student came up with the Vincy people would not a have a clue what you were talking about if you called them a reggae bus, anyway we get into town and we are off! We went to a lot of stores and couldn't seem to find anything we wanted to get so we headed to one last store and found him a pair of shorts! Success! Exactly what we were looking for and they were even reasonably priced! kohl was being to good he did all of the walking and didn't complain once! I think he is finally starting to get used to all the walking we do!
Kohl finally broke after we left the last store and asked if we could go home I still had one more store to go too but decided it could wait we had been beating the sidewalk for 2 and 1/2 hours, we caught a van and Kohl and Katelyn were asleep instantly LOL, I laugh because it is so loud on the buses you can't even hear yourself think but my kids go right to sleep!
Friday morning Jacob was off to take his test and Kohl, Katelyn and I decorated the house and made him a card and got ready for the day, Kohl was so excited for Jacobs birthday he made me and Katelyn hid so we could jump out and yell surprise it was hilarious! We decide to had back into town that day and look around for some other stuff we needed so we spent the afternoon down there and the came home and skyped with our families and then we celebrated Jacobs birthday by ordering Pizza Hut and have cake and ice cream, it was a good day we had some much needed family time after such a long exam week!
P.S. Jacob did really well on his exams!
This weeks piece of paradise..........
