long day.




The pictures are things that Michael did. The first was him writing Michael loves mom and dad. The second was a drawing of the whole family. I'm at the top, from left to right it is supposed to be Aiden, Daddy, and then Michael. The third was a picture of me and Peter, guess who is who.

Today just seemed to take for ever to get through. I woke up feeling like my whole head was in lock down. I have what I consider moderate to severe jaw problems, TMJ, and at night I find myself clenching my jaw and teeth together really badly. Sometimes I wake up and can't open it very far. For a while it hadn't been hurting, but lately it has started flaring up again. Well, this morning was kind of bad, not to mention the huge sinus pressure that made me feel like my head was going to explode, and my ear hurts too. Let's see, am I done whining?? Moving on...
Michael woke up in a good mood after sleeping in his bed all night long! Aiden did not sleep in his bed. It is almost impossible to sleep next to him in bed because he just wakes up so easy. I have a hard time putting him in his crib because it is so far down. I have to maneuver my ribs above the top of the crib and lean so far over that my feet no longer touch the ground. I still can't even reach it. I guess it makes him feel like he is falling when I put him down. I need to put a stool in there. I was able to get in a quick shower while the boys watched little Einsteins though. I felt pretty awake after that. The rest of the day consisted of me going up to the church to get one of my paychecks reissued because i lose everything. I think we might have even shredded it with some other papers. When I say we, I mean I might have shredded it. Peter just doesn't know what to do with me. I don't blame him. I don't know what to do with me either. Sometimes all I can do is throw up my hands and sigh. Oh well. After that I went to immediately deposit the check and the poor girl in the drive through must hate me because I never correctly fill out the deposit slip. She sounds so irritated with me every time. It's kind of funny, but I feel bad for her. Most of the time Michael is talking non-stop so when I have to split my focus, it doesn't turn out so well. We then headed over to my parents house and hung out there for a while. They took us to eat at OTB, thanks guys! Aiden is doing so good now trying to eat new things. He had bits of tortilla, chicken, rice and guacamole. Go Mexican food! He wants to try everything, and he likes most of it too. It was funny because my mom tried to make him do a sour face by giving him a lime, but he liked it so much that he only shuddered and gave us two faces. That was after about 4 or 5 tries. He is my little eater. At least for now. Then we headed on home and I put Michael to bed first. He did really good going to sleep on his own, even though he did talk to me from his room again for a while. Aiden took longer to get to sleep. Matt came by to drop off some wonderful clothes that were Micah's and he has outgrown them. I was also blessed to get a wonderful double stroller that has two seats for small kids. ( for our next kid and Aiden.) And no, we are not pregnant. Once he heard and saw Matt, there was no way he was going back to sleep. It was funny. So he played a bit and then once Matt left I was able to nurse him to sleep. He finally stayed asleep once I put him down. Tomorrow I get a new student in my class, so I need to get some sleep. Have a great night or day, whenever you read this.
