Thanks
Thanks for the emails from those of you who are still reading. I appreciate it. I understand it is difficult to read a lot of this blog when you're still struggling to complete your family. I don't expect it to be easy; I can't imagine the pain of losing a baby late in pregnancy. I have tried, and it is too painful to bear, so I don't pretend to know just how it feels. I understand it is hard to read my happy stories or listen to me vent about teething issues. I must sound ungrateful sometimes. I am not. I am so, so blessed to have Andrew. I never take a day for granted. I love him more than life itself and would gladly die for him. Being a SAHM, my life is indeed all about Andrew. I wish I had more to talk about, but I really don't. That may seem sad, but its what I've wanted since I was a little girl, so I enjoy it. I love mommyhood. I considered abandoning this blog since it was getting so "mommy-centered" but its kind of become my baby book. I love looking back and reading about the first days. I want to keep it up. I hope you will all continue to read, and please email me with suggestions and comments when I whine about something. I need all the help I can get sometimes! :) Anyway, thanks. I appreciate it.
Quick update on the boy: Andrew is GREAT. He has FOUR teeth coming through on top, which has made him very clingy and uncomfortable. He had only one sleepless night and has been fine since (thank God) but I am so ready for these toofers to come through and ease his pain a bit. I can see the tips of all four through his gums so I know they are RIGHT THERE. Poor guy's gums are just bulging. Looks like I could just touch them and they'd burst right through, but I've tried that and it didn't work. All I can say is thank God for Hyland's Teething Tablets. Instant calm. Love it. He's standing a lot and TRYING to crawl still. He loves it when we take his hands and walk him around the house. I swear he's going to take off walking on his own one day and completely skip the crawling. ACK! He babbles all the time...lots of "blah blah blah" and "dadadada" and "mamamama." Such a sweet little voice. He's eating lots of finger foods and loves everything he's eaten so far. He hates his bottle. Total fit of rage when he sees it. I've had to resort to pouring the formula in his mouth via cup (which is MESSY), but hey...whatever works. He still needs the formula for at least a few more months. Anyway, that's the latest. He's really just terrific! Love him to pieces!
