Something fresh...

Nothing like waking up on a Monday morning in your own bed after being away for the weekend, with a new fresh hair cut (nice and short), and a nice fresh hot cup of coffee.  This Monday would be perfect if my little man was in a good mood, but alas, weekend trips always throw him off his schedule... and this... this takes me two weeks MAX to get him back into his normal routines and schedules... and those two weeks for mommy means lack of sleep and shot nerves.

At least I have my blog... my comfy little corner to melt away into while he lays in the other room screaming away... that scream you can't seem to calm... that scream that breaks your mommy heart.  He was obviously over tired (since he was up in the middle of the night screaming), but I tried to rock him, nurse him... let him sit with me in the family room... nothing was calming him down, being with me seemed to make it worse, so I just laid him down and went back into the family room and just sat here tense, fighting ever instinct to go back in there.  Sometimes we just have to accept that there's nothing you can do to help, and just let them work it out, no matter how much you hate it.

Over the weekend, David finally crawled forward!  I missed it. :(  George and I were out getting our hair done.  While I was waiting for George's cut to be done, Jeffry called me to tell me that he crawled to him and Grandpa Jeff.  At least he did it with one of us... Daddy will have that special memory to share with him when he's older. :)  I told him to get a video of him doing it.  He was stubborn after that.  They only got a little video of him.

In other news, we should be closing on May 28th now instead of June 1st.  We are SO excited.  First thing we're going to try to do is finish the basement so we can have the guest room done for family visits.  David's first birthday is creeping up on us here in a few months, and we'll need a place for Jeff's parents to stay. We're also having fun looking at how we're going to decorate.

Oh! Last night we had dinner at my brother and sister in law's house with the family, and towards the end of dinner, my brother said it was funny but nice that everyone was there because it was a year ago (yesterday) that they had found out Erika was pregnant with dear sweet little Frederick (rip sweet little angel), and they had just found out she is expecting again.  I had my mouth full of food when he said that... if I hadn't had food in my mouth I would of screamed!!!  I'm so excited for them I could dance on the moon!  I'm getting a twin vibe from her, so we'll see... if not twins, I think it'll be a boy.  SO excited.

(Erika, I love you so much sis, and I'm here all the way through!  and you know I'll be there to take pictures. :) Jeff can watch David so I can be there. :)  Oooo now I really can't wait till January... which is something I don't usually say cause I don't usually care for that month... haha tooo COLD!)

So I better get to knitting!!!  Gotta prepare for my little niece or nephew(s?) ;)  So excited. :)  Have I said I was excited????

Well, that was the best news I could hear!  And on that note I better go check on my crabby little boy... hope you all had a good weekend, and a great Monday!
