Well, it's so hard to believe how quickly time passes. Henre is almost 3 months! On the 12th he'll be 3 months. Anywho, life is still trudging along. Hayley went to Girl Scouts today & brought home the cookies that she had sold. It was impossible to take her out to sell to the neighborhood because we'd just brought Henre home from the hospital when she brought home the Brochure to sell her Girl Scout cookies. She is going to be selling them this Saturday (tomorrow) at the area Walmart. She's so excited! She's actually a Daisy, but soon she'll be old enough to be a Girl Scout.
Henre is awake a lot more lately. I was taking a class in Logan on Wednesday night & Erich took the kids to play at McDonald's & while Hayley was playing hard with the other children, Henre sat on his dad's lap & was watching the excitement & activity with wide-eyed attention! He loved it! I wish I had video to show of the occasion, but Erich's not that into taking pictures. Henre was sleeping in a bassinet in our room for the first few months he was home but since he was about 8 weeks old he's been sleeping in his swing in the living room. He makes a lot of little noises in his sleep & it'd wake me up when I was alone with him at night. (I sleep MUCH better when Erich's home) So to help me sleep, I put a monitor by his swing & I slept in another room so this way I don't wake up to every tiny little sound & Henre sleeps much better, well, in theory he does.
I still don't manage to leave the house much for a few different reasons & my family will know why, but I had to walk Hayley over to a friend's house on a day that Erich was away from home at a class & when I was holding Henre he did NOT want to be under the blanket but wanted to see the sky & whatever else he could! I kept him under a blanket while I held him to my chest mostly because it was so cold outside.
Erich is doing really well at work. He's been having to deal with irresponsible employees but he tries not to let it bother him. He wants to work at a different (daytime) position at work but isn't sure he wants to have a particular woman who oversees the position to be his boss. She's difficult to work for & doesn't communicatte well. He's been so much happier since he got a new boss, Ray, and has been so much happier at home. I know the saying is: "If Momma's not happy, nobody's happy!", but I beleive it's also true for the dad. Since Erich's happier, then I have more peace & the house runs more smoothly. I've been trying to keep up the housework but because of the pain I'm in it's been really difficult. If I don't do it, then it doesn't get done. It's very frustrating becasuse I used to be so neat & tidy, plus I was organized!
I am curious if anyone's ever rented their car out before. I learned about it on the Today Show Thursday morning & I think we're going to look into it.
I'd love to add more, but my baby's calling!
