 |
| Hayden refers to the castle at Disney as "Mickey's House" |

| And we came home to cold weather and LOTS of leaves to pick up... Hayden was on the job! |
I feel as though I've been in complete hibernation... and truthfully I almost have been, so here goes for explaining all the happenings over the past two months! It feels like eternity to talk about some of the things that have happened...
About two and a half months into having Dylan at home, I called in re-enforcements- "BG's you've got to come visit" is all I had to say to get my mom on a plane and in for a week, I honestly have never been so glad to see her and so sad for her to leave! After weeks of fussiness (like Dejavu with Hayden) we nailed down milk protein and soy intolerance in my milk, eliminated the culprits from my diet, began pumping full time to actually feed Dylan enough for him to sleep for longer than 45 minutes- no kidding and still maintain enough umph to keep up with both boys, my nerves were shot and my mom was a huge help. I actually got to take Hayden on a date- we had Chick-fil-A and he got Yogli-Mogli and a romp in the park- we were both in Heaven!!! Dylan has now begun solids and looks at me like "where has this been" every time he gets to eat. I think Dylan will be the one to eat me out of house and home come High School! He's my little chunky monkey! Christmas has come and gone- it honestly flew by- was tons of fun, but lots of work as well. So special to have Daddy home with us on both Christmas morning and Christmas Eve- which nearly never happens in the NFL, but the way our games fell this year it did and we were oh so thankful. Speaking of the season, what a FABULOUS one it was. Losing to San Fransisco was one of the saddest days we've had, though were thankful to have had the success we did, being that close to the Super Bowl and losing was a tough one. So how does one get over such a disappointment?- well Team Thomas heads to sunny Orlando and as Hayden says went to "Mickey's House"!
Settling into the role of mother of two little boys kicks my tail some days, but I wouldn't change one thing about what I do with my days- more sleep would be nice- but I know it will come one of these days! (I think) Through stuffy noses, crying spells, loads and loads (and loads) of laundry, enough dishes you'd think I feed an army (only four people live here right?) and oh yes Milby still sheds like no other- I honestly lay down and think how lucky I am- because they smile like no other can and melt my heart each day... yes Glenn you do too!!!
