Lonely Nights


My husband has been working the graveyard shift for the past 9 nights STRAIGHT! I have been going insane! Noah, who is very much a daddy's boy, has been absoulutly AWFUL to put to bed at night. He is out of bed every two minutes! One night I put him to bed at 7 and he was not asleep until almost 11 o'clock! Although the extra money is nice (we are using it to make up for the income he will lose when we go to Canada for a week) but I'll be glad when it is over. Although this job being over makes me kind of nervous. Dayv just got word that 15 - 30 guys got laid off this past week. We are working towards being self-sufficent if that were to ever happen but we are not even close to being there yet.


Landon had his two month appointment last wednesday. He weighed in at 17.2 lbs and was measuring at 26 inches long! And we thought Carson was big. He actually doesn't look as "fat" as Carson did as a baby. Maybe he's just "big boned".... lol . Everything looked good. We talked about his "squeaky" breathing and the doctor said there would be a very small chance that they would do anything about it because he is obviously growing just fine and is an all around very happy baby. He thinks the cartilige in his thoat is just "floppy" (as a baby's cartilige is) and as he gets older it will tighten up and there will be no more squeaking. So, I've pretty much decided not to have a scope down the nose test done unless things get worse.


Sebastian is still hiding out and comes over every night for food (as far as I know anyway). He might just end up being an outside cat. I might try a few more things to get him to come in the house after Dayv gets off the night shift but we'll see.


Progress on the new room has slowed down a lot since Dayv started working nights but it should pick up again soon. He has got all four walls sheetrocked and the door hung. So, it's actually a room now!


Carson finished his last day of Kindergarten last friday. He is so excited to start first grade. I'm sure our summer is just going to fly by, we have so much planned. First Carson starts swimming lessons on the 15th of June for two weeks. We go to Canada two days after swimming lesssons ends for a week. Carson gets his tonsils out the 14th of July. We are debating on putting him t-ball starting that week for four weeks. And Tahirah wants to try dance lessons again around the same time (we've tried it before and it did NOT go well). I'm also still debating on putting Tahirah in preschool. I think she really needs it. Not for the acedimic part of it but for the social part and just being away from mom for a couple of hours in a school like setting. The problem is paying for it. Preschool is so expensive!


Well, there's my update!
