JAMES IS 1 MONTH OLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

James

1 month old!!

I cant believe James is one month old already! Mind you the whole month has been a bit of a blur! I have had many 'momnesia' moments! I went to download pictures the other day and realized I had no memory card in the camera for the past week!! DUH! So frustrating! Then I went to a school to register my girls for next year and I was meeting a fellow for a tour...went to the front desk and asked for a guy that is supposed to install a fireplace in our basement!! DUH!! So embarrassing...hopefully when Im not so sleep deprived my brain will return and I can function somewhat normally...I really dont think Im safe to be in charge of 4 kids!! LOL!!

We have so enjoyed little James! He is such a good baby and SOOOOOOO patient with his sisters. He gets passed around and flipped and flopped and squished and cuddled every which way and he just takes it! Im sure that will change...but it sure helps me out when they can hold him for a few minutes so I can get something done! He is getting bigger already and just lost his hair! I gave him a bath...and washed his hair..and it just seemed to slide off his head...poor guy! Hopefully it returns soon! It just happens that I have scheduled his pictures for this week...darn it...maybe we can spray paint some hair on. LOL.

We are all doing great! Im feeling better going into this 4th week. There are definately rough days and better days. The fatigue is never ending...but Im doing everything I can to rebuild these red blood cells. My sister felt sorry that I was looking so ghostly so she got me some cream that is supposed to bring out my 'natural glow'.....I need about a gallon of it!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you to my mom and sister for all their much needed and appreciated help!! And thank you to so so so so many that have been so great to help us in the past months!!!! We are so indebted to soooooooo many!!!! Thank you!!!!

Funny story......

When Kristin was here...she was being so careful to watch Ben carefully...as this house isnt baby proofed yet. Well she was upstairs with Ben and Paige and I was downstairs and I just heard a loud crash and tumble...and Kristin screamed. Ben had taken a little tumble down the stairs...luckily only half way due to a turn in the staircase. Kristin rescued Ben and cuddled him...he was fine..but all witnesses were quite scared. Kristin commented to Paige....Oh, that scared me! Paige replied, YAH, I was so scared my eyes almost POPPED OUT OF MY HEAD!!
