Busy Few weeks

I haven't really updated because I have been super busy. First we had Austin's Baptism. We had a guest list of about 60 people coming for it so we stayed busy all weekend getting ready. Then Last week I really didn't do too much on the computer.

This past weekend we went to Medieval times on Saturday. Us ladies got very inebriated and I kind of enjoyed it. We all got into the show and booed the red knight (well, my very loud husband did) and the red knight kept giving us the evil eye everytime he went past our seats. It was exciting and nice to go out for a night and not worry about babies.

Yesterday was very much a do nothing day. I had a wicked headache from all the rum I drank so we sat around and didn't do much. Everyone came back over and we had breakfast then played some Dance Dance Revolution on the Wii. Then everyone left and I had a fantastic nap.

Today I got ambitious and put Austin's highchair together. It was in so many pieces!! The stroller didn't even take that much assembly! I did get everything together and then panicked that I had an extra screw. I went through and re-counted all the screws and it just turned out there was an extra one in the package (Big sigh of relief!) I put Austin in his chair and he enjoyed it so much he decided to poo. And it went all up his back - like up to the shoulder blades. I had just put him in a new outfit he had recieved and it was green and white striped with little baby aligators on him. And he only had it on for less than an hour. Oh well, maybe next time!

I'm getting excited for April. It's going to fly by I think. Mainly because the weather will get warmer and hopefully Austin's skin will clear up a bit. Then I have an infant massage class I've signed up for so that will break the month up a bit.

I went to the zoo with Sue, Owen and Austin and I finished a book, bringing my yearly total to 2 books and one half done... I'm slowly getting there.

No Title.

Sorry, today's post is no title. I don't really think I can come up with one. I'm tired today. Very very tired. Was up late on Saturday night with Vicky and Don playing poker then up early sunday morning for church. Then, last night I just couldn't sleep. I was thinking too much (which is never a good thing at 2am) and I've been just a little stressed out lately. I finally crashed around 3:30 am just to be up with baby at 6:30.

I tried leaving him our bed to sleep while I dozed but I think I only managed it in 10 minute incriments because he kept kicking me. Then he pooped. Well that smell definately woke me up. Changed his bum, and tried the crib again. He seemed to be content so I went back to bed. Because I tuck pillows all around Austin when he's in bed with me, my nice soft squishy pillow that I cuddle with somehow smelled very badly of Austin's poop. I had to put it on the floor because it smelt so bad (and his diaper didn't leak at all so i'm not sure how the pillow gained the lovely smell...) so I didn't really get a nice sleep until Austin woke me up 20 minutes later by doing his new favorite thing.... Screaming. Not crying screaming, a hello new item i'm discovering; listen to how loud my voice can go. It's been lots of fun when he's doing it at about 5:30am... not. However, in the middle of the afternoon while we are playing on the floor his little hello screams are cute.

Speaking of cute, we have started Austin on Cereal. He's reached the milestones to start cereal and the dr said it was ok to. For the first week I fed him at 11am so that I could watch him throughout the day to make sure he was ok. Yesterday he got the cereal a little later in the day and today was back at 11am. I took video of his first cereal adventure. He wasn't a fan of the cereal, but couldn't stop shoving the brightly colored octopus and starfish bib in his mouth. Whenever the spoon wasn't there, the bib was. He is doing great though and I'm predicting more than a 1lbs weight gain when we go to the dr's on friday.

On Friday we got Austin's baptism outfit. absoloutely.freakin.adorable!!! It's white satin material. the pants have white satin suspenders, there is a white satin dress shirt, white satin vest, white satin bow tie and a matching white satin hat. I can't wait to dress him in it. Although I think we may have to hem the pant legs up a bit. the waist was just a smidgen big when we tried it on him last night but the legs were really long. I have to check our dresser drawer but I think we also need to find some shoes for him. The store we got the suit from only had white girls' shoes so we will need to go looking for something. I am about 99.9% sure I am also getting baptised that day. No one that we sent the invites out to knows about it but I figure why not. I'm very excited to have my family coming to church that day. the praise team at church is doing a double set (a performance of songs at the beginning and the ending of church) and Dave's family is performing. I can't wait for my family to see them and see just how good they are. It will be a very special sunday for us and they will be taping it so that will be great.

Anyways, I need to go to bed now. I'm soooo exhausted and know that Austin will be up in just a few short hours for a bottle. Good night everyone.
