Keepin' on
These last few weeks around our house have been NUTSO. J has been working like a dog, constantly busy with everything and barely has time to breathe, therefore, I have been trying to hold down the fort for all of us. I can be an okay fort holder downer, but at times I slip up and do not perform to the best of my abilities.
Buddance and I spent the weekend visiting grandparents down south since J was on a business trip, and we had a great time. It was a little stressful trying to pack up for a long weekend, with me being pregnant and Buddance being unable to help in anyway (if you count giving me pats on the back as help, then he was a big helper, but otherwise, not so much). The drive down went surprisingly well, and though Bud only naps for a total of 30 minutes in the car (no matter what) he was still very pleasant for the trip. We had a blast playing with dogs, running around in a huge yard, watering flowers, and exploring the house in which Momma grew up. I was so glad that Bud and I were able to get away, especially since J was gone for almost six days and it would have been r-o-u-g-h at our little tiny house trying to find new ways to entertain Bud.
While we were on our trip Bud tried saying some new words, "Water" and "Flower" were the ones I understood. He uses flower regularly now, but I haven't heard water since the first time he said it.
Baby numero two is doing well and making his or her presence known by sitting heavily on my bladder. Buddance is still pretty much in the dark as to how his life is going to change in September, but that's okay, I have a feeling he is going to be a wonderful older brother. He is such a sweet and caring child, so loving and affectionate, it is wonderful. I can only hope this tender side of Bud remains present even after he is not the only light in our lives. I am so thrilled to meet this new child, I cannot wait. Well, let me rephrase that. I CAN wait. Preferably until September 24 or after. Do all the cooking you can little bebe, we need as much prep time as possible out here.
