Great weekend

The weather has been great and we are definitely ready for spring. Isaac loves to be outside and gets very upset when we go back in. Here are some pictures from this weekend. We played in the driveway because the grass was of kind wet and it's too muddy in the backyard. He had fun picking up rocks and surprisingly not eating them! And pushing around the snow shovel. Nick is definitely ready for him to shovel snow!





We made our first trip to the Children's Museum with my mom, sister, BIL and Maren. And it will definitely not be our last because we got a family pass for a year. Isaac and Maren had a great time and the parents were exhausted, even though we just watched them.






Isaac really wanted to play with the older kids...well any kid. There was a little pretend ice cream shop with fake ice cream and trays. He's at the window in the picture above and there was a little girl, who in my opinion was a little brat. She kept on telling kids not to touch anything and grabbed a few things away from Isaac. I stepped in and said she needed to share and he was going to see the ice cream for a minute. I really wanted to go on more but I know it wasn't my place but she was brat. I'm sure it's the age or maybe it was because she was being mean to my child but I was annoyed.


Last but not least...Isaac is going to try out for Abercrombie Kids! Just kidding.

Give me a hug

Isaac's into giving lots of hugs lately...including the dogs!

I think he's going through the attachment phase. I love it...sometimes...but Nick hates it because he wants me. I say sometimes because it's hard when I have to hand him off to Nick to cook dinner, get dressed, etc. So, Nick thinks he doesn't like him which of course isn't true. He's just going through his "mommy" stage and I'm sure it'll pass, hopefully not too soon!

2 long weeks...

I think and hope Isaac is getting back to himself. We realized he is getting his bottom two molars and was waking up in the middle of the night screaming. Not a fuss here and there but a bloody murder scream. Sorry for the harsh words but that is how it has been. He wasn't eating at daycare and that is huge in our eyes because he almost eats Sharon out of her house, he eats so much.
I was 100% sure it was teeth but then he ends up with a cold, so that might have been the problem.
And it didn't really help that we tried to change up the routine of not giving him a bottle before bed. He didn't like that. He even had a hard time with just milk before bed. I think it hurt his little tummy. So, we are still on the routine of a bath (ever other night), pj's, brushing his teeth, reading a book, bottle and then bed. I know the brushing of teeth is kind of silly when he gets a bottle after brushing but I want it in there. He loves brushing his teeth and pretty good at it.
We've had a good couple good nights, so things are getting back to normal. Knock on wood!

New blog to follow

My friend from grad school, Jen, follows this blog, Confessions of a CF Husband and I love reading it because it reminds me that I have nothing to complain about. We have jobs, we have a house but mainly everyone in our family is healthy--minus a cold here and there.
This family has been through so much and it amazing to see they are still standing. The mom/wife has CF and their precious daughter Gwynth was born at like 25 weeks. She is going strong now but has some health issues. Check out the blog and count your blessings!
