October 28, 1979

On this date 29 years ago a very special boy was born. I can still remember sitting on the couch with my Grandma watching the headlights leave the carport outside as my parents left for the hospital. How I miss that kid! Happy Birthday Little Brother.

Little Update

Well no new photos to post at the moment. I am pleased to report that the family is nearly all healthy again. My girl is going back to school tomorrow so let's see how long it lasts!

We have a few fun things scheduled this week and of course Friday is Halloween so we should have some great new pics to post soon.

Have a great week!

Defending the neighborhood

My girl and her daddy driving around the neighborhood in Uncle Dooley's Defender... That's her little hand waving at me :) She's still sick, but getting better little by little. All that's left is a pesky cough.

My boy is getting very good at putting his thumb in his mouth. It's really cute for now... He'll be 3 months old tomorrow! Might try to post a 3 mo pic of him tomorrow.

Nighty night-

Fever, AGAIN!!!

Sheesh - this preschool thing might do my head in. My girl has a fever AGAIN. Low yesterday and again today but it seems to be creeping up a bit today. She just fell asleep in my arms which she never does unless she isn't well. AGHHHH.

My little guy has decided to take catnaps the past couple days. Last night bedtime was a nightmare - I finally got a very restless baby down and turned out the light at 1:21 am at which time I was beginning to question my sanity. It's amazing what a few hours sleep can do for you because I felt mostly back to normal (term used very loosely!) at 7am when he woke to eat. I think he was out of sorts because he was so over tired. It's been catnaps again today but he's sleeping now so we will see how it goes. Wish me luck, pray for me, whatever it is that you do. I can't handle many more nights like last night!

No photos to post today, my husband has relocated my computer so that he can access the internet on his PS3. My photo storage (external drive) hasn't been relocated as yet and I'm too lazy to go and get it right now.

BTW - since I've been blogging again I haven't received one single comment on my blog. So if you are reading this, please send me a comment now and then.

ttfn :)

Ahhhhhhh, October....

Our rainy month has arrived. For me, it is a welcome break from sweltering summer days. I can sit inside, turn the air down and imagine a cool fall day outside! Usually when the rain is over and November rolls around, the intense heat is gone and the nice island breeze returns. Then we can once again enjoy the outdoors here....without having to be at the beach.

Our Halloween decorations are out and our little girl is THRILLED! She loves "her Halloween stuff"! I've kept the decorations confined to our dining room. Normally they are scattered throughout the house, but the oranges and blacks and purples seem to clash with the soothing pale aqua that the rest of the house is painted.

Happy Fall!

Where, oh where has my little blog gone?

Can't believe 10 days has passed since my last post... Time is flying!

The baby boy is over his fever and just has a few bouts daily with a stuffy nose. His nose is so tiny though, that it doesn't take much at all to make it stuffy! Hopefully that will all pass by the end of the week.

On the other hand my girl has an ear infection. First one. Thankfully with our quick action she didn't suffer much pain. We had her to the doctor within hours of the pain setting in (thanks to her daddy for that!) and between the Motrin & antibiotics has been very well today. She'll be back at school tomorrow. We had fun putting our halloween decorations in the dining room today. Would usually wait until October had officially begun, but these days you gotta do it when you get a chance! Plan to post some pics of that later in the week (when October has begun).

Our tiny guy has started plenty of cooing and squealing - here's a peek!


Have a good week!!

First fever...

My little boy has his first fever! His big sis has a cold and looks like he caught it. So sad :( So far he's been acting like it isn't bothering him much. Hopefully it stays that way. So no pics for now but should have some before the end of the weekend. Gotta get my girl in bed.

Happy Friday!
