8 weeks old



Well...almost. It has been an interesting few weeks to say the least. My in-laws made the trek from California to Alabama driving the suburban that was to be ours. Woot woot! It was kind of sad having to drive separately for a few weeks. Ryan's sister flew out for a few days as well. It was great having them out. A lot of things got done and it was greatly appreciated. We are back to trying to get into a routine. I go back to work this week. Not really looking forward to it but what can you do? The first few days are always hard. I'm not a big fan of pumping so I'm definitely not looking forward to doing that three times a day for the next year. I was in the process of building our freezer supplier and our entire house came down with the stomach flu. It was AWFUL. This happened with Ryan's family out here too. I've never seen so many sick people in one little house in my life. The kids barely noticed anything...they'd vomit and start running circles around the house like nothing happened, meanwhile the adults took at least the full 24 hours to re-coup. I pretty much lost my milk supply with that bout of illness so I'm trying to build it back up again. Everyone is doing fabulously. The boys are loving on Myles and Myles is growing SO FAST. :( My baby is already in 3 month clothing.

*wipes a tear away*

He sleeps from 9:30-7:30 waking once to nurse. I'm working on trying to get a solid 6 hours from 1030-6 for when I return to work. I'm not as hardcore about it as I was the last pregnancies, mainly because of my teetering supply but I'm sure I'll survive working and waking numerous times throughout the night. Other working parents do it. :)
