This week I have been doing a lot of running around. All necessary, but not all fun. Grand Valley has, for another year, screwed up by not sending in Gaetan's transcripts to the grad schools. So we decided that we would just personally get them from Grand Valley and mail them ourselves... or in this particular case drive them to the university, as the deadline was the next day!
Gaetan had talked with people on the phone at WMU, and they told him everything he needed to complete his application. Since their deadline was in 2 days after he talked with them, I told him that I would take care of it since I have the time to do it. Well, something that should've taken a few minutes on campus ended up taking me 3 hours! I couldn't really find where I was supposed to go, being a big ole pregnant lady I was more concerned about finding a bathroom, and then when I got there they kept sending me to different places. Luckily, we did get everything figured out and I think all things are now in order. I think that we are finally finished dealing with Grand Valley and all their incompetancies once and for all! Which is nice.
I took Tristan with me on our adventures all over town and he was such a good dude. He was either in his carseat or the stroller for the majority of the day and he was a champ about it. No fussing, no being upset. I couldn't have been more proud of what a Big Boy he was! And when Gaetan called the few departments he had to to follow up all they could say was, "You're the one with the adorable baby right?" hahaa.
I am glad that I was able to help him out in this capacity... another perk of being a stay at home Momma. I would've hated for him to take time off to get this taken care of, when it shouldn't have been an issue to begin with! But I am learning to enjoy the journey :)
