Here is an email I sent to my mom. I just posted it here instead of rewriting things ( Read more... )

I went to the doctor last Friday for Brandon's 2 month appointment. It was only the second time I had taken both boys anywhere by myself (the first time was church-and Chandler went to his class so it was like I only had Brandon) Brandon is 14 pounds and 24.5 inches long. He is in the 95th percentile for his weight and 90th for his height. I've ( Read more... )

Chandler is watching Sesame Street and Brandon is sleeping in the swing so I have a few minutes to update my journal ( Read more... )

Chandler's watching sesame street and Brandon is asleep in his room in the crib. I have been putting him to sleep in the crib lately. I don't like the fact that the little bassinet we have rocks. I don't have the little pieces to put in the sides so that it will remain stationary. So Brandon starts out in his crib at night and then I go and get ( Read more... )

Last night was not so bad. Brandon ate around 8 then fell asleep around 9. While he was sleeping I did dishes, picked up the house a bit(it desperately needed it), and cleaned our bathroom. Then I picked Brandon up around 10:30, changed his diaper and clothes (he was still wearing his cute little outfit that he'd worn to church). He slept ( Read more... )

Just a quick update to say I am still alive, lol. I have a feeling any updates I make from now on, will be quick in nature. Jon is outside with Chandler and Brandon is sleeping-though he's bound to wake up any time now ( Read more... )

So I went to the doctor yesterday. Daryl, my midwife, checked me and said I was 80% effaced and 2 cm dialated. Little Brandon could be coming any day now but I hope he holds off until at least the 27th that way my Mom can get here. She is having a graduation party for my two sisters on the 26th (that's only two days away I just realized). I am ( Read more... )

Last night after dinner, Jon and I both (and Chandler)went downstairs to move EVERYTHING over to the garage side of the house. I wanted everything cleared out so that on Saturday I can sweep and mop the whole area. We had to move a bunch of stuff-tools, trash, drywall pieces, wood, etc. The only thing left is the shower stall (which will ( Read more... )

I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day-as I did. My church is so thoughtful on Mother's Day. They always have a special little program ( Read more... )

It was a busy weekend. Our church was hosting the regional Hispanic convention. Churches from all over, Alabama, Mississippi, and even Missouri were attending this weekend. I went to the service on Thursday night by myself and Jon stayed home with Chandler. I was hoping to go again Friday night with Jon. I got showered and tried to have dinner ( Read more... )
