So I had a friend tell me I needed to blog...so I will ... mainly because .... she's probably the only person who reads my blog .... here's a shout out ..."Hey Jeanette!"
So whats new...whats new....I got a new phone.....oh yeah and a new baby....here's a picture. (Of the baby, not the phone)
Addison is our new beautiful addition to our family.
Here are some fun facts about life with a new baby in the house....
- Fact 1...Addison sleeps a great stretch of 5 hours during the night....unlike SOME other baby I had who would wake his mommy up every 2 and 1/2 hours at night....he shall remain nameless...
<----- did not sleep through the night until 11 months old!!!
But, he can build one mean lego tower!
- Fact 2....changing diapers on two kids has not been all that hard....every person who had heard Connor wasnt potty trained while I was pregnant with Addison, would give me that "look." You know....like "Ooooh thats so unfortunate....so hard....." and then kinda suck in their teeth. Eh. I decided not to stress. But very recent news in our household....we are actually well on our way to being potty trained. For those of you who know Connor, know he loves numbers....so when we started counting on a chart how many times he's gone potty....thats all it took for us to be successful. And fruit snacks. Lots and lots of fruit snacks. We are on number 17 by the way.
- Fact 3 ...having one baby does not make you prepared for the next one.....well...maybe I shouldnt say "not"....After all I can change a diaper while I am half awake, I can hear my baby waking up before she even cries....and I know that "face" that tells me I need to break out the wipies....however I was totally unprepared for spit up.....lots and lots and lots of spit up. Like change the outfit 3 times because its beeen soaked with spit up. Oh and projectile vomiting.....totally didnt see that one coming.....so of course...like the calm natured person I am...I called the doc right away to find out if my baby was normal or had some weird spitting up projectile vomiting disease....the doctor laughed at me. I dont think doctors are supposed to laugh.
-Fact 4 ....decaf coffee works almost as well as caffeinated coffee (did I spell that right?) Caffenated? Caffinated? ...okay maybe it works almost as well.
-And fact 5 - Connor has grown 3 feet taller and a 100 lbs heavier since Addison was born...well no thats not true at all....it just seems that way...my "baby" is now a big boy....or so I am trying to convince him with all this potty business.
