Sept 23

Well, I am baby sitting Kadin and Easton today while Josh is at work and after the morning bustle of getting everyone up, fed and dressed we are all settled in. Sponge bob is on TV and the boys are playing with toys while watching it over their shoulders. Cian is finally sleeping soundly in his car seat and I have a moment to check my emails and myspace.

Cian got his sleeping schedule a bit messed up yesterday and went to sleep really really early, so instead of his normal night time schedule of sleeping from 8ish to 3ish to 5:30ish to 7ish, he slept from about 5pm to 1am and then slept fitfully the rest of the night - wriggling, grunting, half crying, gurgling, coughing and gasping (thanks to this stinking cold we both have) and kept me from ever really falling back to sleep. Needless to say I am TIRED.

It got really cold last night - the last report I heard was it got down to 34F. Today looks like it is going to be a beautiful day, but it probably won't be getting warm enough to be all that pleasant outside.

Last week I weighed Cian and he weighed 11 1/2 lbs. I can't wait for his 2 month appointment in a couple weeks to find out his length and other stats. I feel so bad for him with this cold. His nose is all stuffy and he has such a hard time figuring out how to breathe without it. I hope it goes away soon and then we can get back to normal.

Well I better go and get Kadin's clothes picked out for school while I have the chance.

    Wow! A new mom yourself - with the lack of sleep that always means especially with Cian having a cold, being willing to watch Kadin and Easton. I'm not sure I would have been able or willing to do that after my first baby. But...I LOVE that you are doing it, honey. God bless your tender heart of love for your brother and sister-in-law's family.
