So not a whole lot going on other than the day to day kid stuff. You all know the routine...3 year olds can swing from a good mood to super whiney and insta-cry over the most insignificant thing, then charm you again within seconds! :-) Getting puked on and smelling like rotton warm baby urp all day long, finger smudges on the glasses, and spending 25 minutes making the stupidest faces all in the attempt to get one smile out of the little one. And when you get it it makes smelling so bad that your husband mildly unattracted to you worth it! lol
We are all doing good, we were concerned about Richie about a month ago because he's been extremely fussy, and well just screaming constantly. We took him to Dr. Azores and had him checked out. We were really worried about him developing allergies to milk, or possible ear infections like Livie had constantly that first 6 months. She deemed him healthy as a horse but colicy. In the last month the screaming has calmed down so much and he seems to be becoming a much happier kid. He's also started smiling in response to a person now which is fantastic. He has THE GREATEST grin and only gets fussy every few days and then it's not the constant screaming it once was. Thank god, because you always feel terrible for the kid and wish to the lord you could fix it for him. Also, i am regaining my sanity, because to be honest for a week or two there i thought i might loose it. lol
Livie is still attached to the baby but is having much more to do with him. For the first few months she always knew where he was, made sure of that.... but now she actually touches him and interacts with him and gave him his first kiss this week which was the greatest thing as their mommy to see that. (sniff sniff) :-)
Rich is doing good, got a raise he deserves for being a journeyman. But more importantly haggled with them and only works 4 days a week now which is FRICKIN FANTASTIC. lol he still doesn't get home until around 8:30 or 9 at night, but that's just fine with 3 days off. We almost don't know what to do with ourselves we're so happy about that. lol
I don't have much to say, so i'm gonna post some excellent pictures from the last few weeks for everyone to take a gander at!
Love to everyone!!!
