All night long

As I sit here pumping in bed at 3:30 in the morning, I wonder how I got my little one to sleep all night long in his crib! I'm watching wiggle and move on the baby monitor and thank God that he can now sleep all night with no help! Me on the other hand, well I'm trying to keep that milk supply up and create a supply for when we go out of town. When will my days of All Night Long come?

    HAHAHA-- Ahhh, pumping... It's sad when you look at how hard you work and for how many months you prepared and how fast it goes... How long are you going out of town for?

    We are going out of town for 2 days. I am pumping also to keep up with my supply. I got low when he started sleeping six hours at a time and I didn't pump. Breastfeeding didn't come as easy as I thought it would!

    Wow! did you fly? If so how did you carry on all that milk? I don't think I will get that much. When I pump and he doesn't nurse I don't get much. We have been struggling with a low milk supply.

Oh what a week! What a week and two days actually! Its amazing to me how one minute life can be going just perfect. Wyatt sound asleep for afternoon nap, Todd loading the dishwasher, me walking out the door to run a couple of errands alone and in a flash, with just one phone call your whole world can miraculously be turned upside down. My father-in-law passed away very unexpected on January, 23.2010. Within an hour we had a family friend with watching Wyatt, our bags packed and we were in the car on the way to Kiawah Island. Its amazing how life just changes. I am not going to go into details, because I don't wan to relive that time. The past week was really just a whirl wind of emotions and reliving them right now is not in the cards. What I will say is that Morgan Hall was a wonderful man. We will miss him.

The Space Between

Right after Wyatt was born we said we wanted more children. We just knew that we wanted to do this all over again and have more kids. We weren’t set on a number, before Wyatt I said four and Todd said one or two. We also knew that we wanted them close together. We didn’t say how close together but when Wyatt was about 8 months old, I was ready! I think that you will face challenges with having them close or having them far apart. There are pros and cons to both and even though we never sat down to look at them and see what was best for us, we just knew we wanted at least two of them close in age. Sure I have two in diapers, two that are totally dependent on me, when I go out I have two that need to be in a stroller or shopping cart, basically all that I need to say is I have two under two! My toddler is in the throws of the terrible twos and my newborn, well she brought with her all the things that newborns do. It’s tough. That being said I wouldn’t change it for anything. No, I wo...

Conversations with Wyatt

W-"I see Mimi!" Me-"Mimi's not here baby." W-"I see Papa? Where Papa is?" Me-"Papa and Mimi are at the beach." W-"No!" Me-"Yes, Mimi and Papa are in Florida." W-"No! Mimi not in Florida." Todd and I started laughing because he was certain Mimi and Papa were NOT in Florida. He was just so darn cute we really couldn't help it. W-"It not funny! No funny! I go see Mimi and Papa." he is yelling this. Me-"You can see them later, right now we have to go home." Just then he saw Target across from Chick-Fil-A. W-"I go there!" Todd-"I bet you and mommy wanna go there, but it's closed." W-"No! It's not closed! I go target!" Then he sees a resturant. W-"I eat, I go eat there. Look it's open, it not closed!" Me-"Wyatt we have to go home baby." W-"Ok, I eat at home, yogurt and milk!" Me-"Ok, you can have yogurt when we get home...
