Tired Tuesday...

Rex has been a little constipated the past week or so and it has been a really trying time for Daddy and me.  We had to start supplementing formula due to Mommy going back to work in a month.  The formula we first put him on didn't settle well, so after speaking to his doctor we switched him to a easier digesting formula.  Well it didn't seem to help right away, so after a suggestion from my Motherinlaw and Aunt-in-law they informed me that Nana MAC always said to put a little sugar in the bottle, so I started and it worked, yeah!!!  He finally went potty on his own this morning and it made me feel so good for him, I know he was in severe pain.  He is sleeping so peaceful right now I hate to even move him.  He is growing by leaps and mounds, he weighed in at 10 1/2lbs and 20" long at his 1 month WCC.  We go back at 2 months to start those dreaded vaccines. 

Robbie is doing amazing as Daddy to number 3, he truly amazes me at his care and compassion with Rex.  He seems to be the only one that can calm little Rex down and rock him to sleep.  Rex truly does recognize and love his Daddy already more than ever.  I couldn't ask for a better husband and father to all 3 of our children. He is simply wonderful.  God has truly blessed me.

Brayden just got over the Swine Flu and seemed to bounce back pretty quickly, she was so sick for a  few days.  The meds the doctor gave her really seemed to just knock the flu right out.  She did miss Valentines Day at school and that was kind of sad, but she enjoyed spending the day with Mommy, Daddy & Rex at home.  She is growing up too quickly, as she will be 9 in April.  I cannot believe 9 years ago my sweet 1st baby was born and I was clueless as how to be a good mother, but with Gods grace I am confident that I have turned into an amazing mother to all 3 of my children.

Hunter is all boy, he loves to ride his bike, climb the tree and pretend he is a cop just like his Daddy.  He puts on his police vest, shirt and gun belt and heads outside to protect our house just as if he were a man.  He is adorable.  Struggling a bit in school, but we have gotten him the help he needs and more one on one attention that will help him overcome his ADHD hurdles.  He is an amazingly bright child, with a huge heart of gold.

I am doing well adjusting to being a Mommy to #3, very tired, but nothing God cannot supply the energy for.  I keep on keeping on daily!  I have bounced back to my always staying busy self and have managed to start dejunking the house.  It is amazing how much I let go even though I stayed busy when I was pregnant.  There are just some things you cannot do when you are preggo, or just choose not to do.  I think I just hit the high points, and now I am bouncing back to my old self.  I am truly a clone of my Grandmother who always stays busy and never sits down.  I am very thankful for my family and don't want to seem to "braggy," but I have the best husband in the world and I love my children with all my heart.  My kids and my husband complete my life.  This week is going to be long with Daddy working his long week, but just glad he is on days!

God Bless you ALL!
