The I-Pod says today's song is "Crazy Girl" by the Eli Young Band, which is ironically how I feel 75% of the time :) But despite the craziness I feel and the craziness of our lives, I am so lucky to have such a fabulous husband to help me keep it all together. "We're gonna do what lovers do. We're gonna have a fight our two. But I ain't ever gonna change my mind." Which couple doesn't argue? Especially at high stress times like bathtime and bedtime, or poopy diaper time! But the fact remains, that we can look at each other and laugh. Like Saturday morning, when getting the kids ready for a photo session here at the house. Hunter decided he better fill his britches. Not sure how it happened as Tyson was changing him, but Hunter ended up trying to make footprints with his diaper contents. Rather than be mad about the mess, we were laughing hysterically at the smiling baby that was so dirty. What was he smiling about? At that moment, he decided to give himself a shower! More laughter and a bath :) "Crazy girl, don't you know that I love you. I ain't going nowhere." Our lives have been crazy in the last year. And just the other day, I told someone that I really felt like it brought us closer together. We know exactly what we could have lost in each other and in our children. Not every day is sunny, but we have each other and two beautiful children and that somehow helps us to see the sunshine in every day!
Hunter had a well visit on Tuesday and is now a big 18 lbs!!! I almost fell over when we were weighing him! He was showing off his little personality for Dr. Louck and the nurse. He was also loving the paper as it crinckled under his moving little body. He is looking very good!! His umbilical hernia is not going anywhere and so we have to continue to watch that. He also told me to hold off any food for at least another month and possible a month and a half. I am fine with this as I didn't feed Hayden any solids until he was at leaszt 5 months old so with making an adjustment in his age, we will be right on. It's so hard to believe that he is going to be 7 months old this week! He is developmentally about 6 weeks behind a normal 4 month old (in adjusted age). It's all so very confusing. We just look at what he can do and be amazed by that! He is rolling over both ways and pushing his arms straight when he is on his belly. I think he is going to be highly motivated by his big brother! Scary how closely he watches Hayden. Even the not so good things :) Poor guy had shots on Tuesday and after all the headache over the RSV shot, we got to give him that on Thursday. So shots twice in one week. AND, little Hunter is trying to cut a tooth on the bottom. I thought that might be why he is constantly chewing his hands and drooling. Can't wait to see it poke through. He has been a little off this week, but come on! We have basically tortured him :) Thank you all for the prayers. He will need them for much longer so keep them coming.
