Who ever thought adding a baby into the mix of my already chaotic life would take so much time??? OK, she really is an excellent baby and does a lot of sleeping, some eating, and a little bit other stuff. She is only up once a night which is between 3 and 4, which is not bad at all. She eats and falls right back to sleep til 6 or 7. So, overall that is awesome for a 2 mth old baby. I talk to my cousin every day, she is doing better. Tired of being around 180 men and women who stink of BO. She is also tired of having to be mean, which is totally not in her nature, but I guess being a Sergeant has its perks and downside. She is up at 3:30 in the morning and does not get off til about 8 at night and finally gets to bed around 11 after eating, showering and shining her boots. So that does not help how shes feeling. Just one week left. To top it all off, shes away from her baby, her hubby is in Iraq and her mom (my aunt) is in the hospital with pneumonia. So all she really wants is to be home.
Other things in our life, the kids started schooling on Monday, so that has added to whats going on around here. They are starting off at a good pace and the structure is sooo much better for them. We are just doing a couple of hours a day since the other kids start school today and they wanted to play the last few days that they could.
This weekend will hopefully be less eventful than last weekend. We lost electricity last Saturday and got it back on Sunday night, which is not bad compared to some of the area that still does not have electricity but it still sucked. We spent a majority of last weekend at my parents house. This weekend should be a lot less eventful. I am going scrapbooking on Saturday and hubby may go out with one of his friends on Friday night that is the extent of our plans.
I have decided that I am going to do a small scrapbook of pics of Nayah from the time that she has been here for my cousin. We have taken a lot of pictures of her since she has been here and have Emailed them to her and her hubby and I thought it would be fun to do a small album for her. So I will do that scrapbookin on Saturday. OK, off to help the kids...
