The Sun Will Come Up Tomorrow!

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile, but things have been kind of hectic lately. Last week was not the greatest of them all, but we survived. Some of the highlights included me getting Mastitis in my breast from trying to wean Spencer. I developed flu like symptoms, got 102 temp. and had a swollen boob. I knew I should have bought a pump in the weaning process, but I was being stubborn and eventually had to buy one anyway. Then to top it off, Logan's babysitter called to tell me she wasn't going to be able to watch my boys next year, since she needed to go back to work. Being overly tired and hormonal, I almost had an emotional breakdown. I am so glad my mother happened to be in town last week and helped me get through all the craziness. I am feeling a little better now and we are in the process of looking into preschools for Logan and childcare for Spencer. We have some interviews set up this week, so please be praying for us. It is hard enough to have to leave them all day and then having to find somewhere that I know they will be safe and happy is stressful. But, I know God has a plan for my boys, so I have to leave the control in his hands and he will provide. On a happier note, Spencer is doing great and growing so much everyday. He LOVES to eat and has an appetite like I have never seen. I remember Logan only eating around 2 ounces at this age and it taking him forever to eat. But, Spencer on the other hand can guzzle down 4-5 ounces like it is nobody's business. The boy probably drinks up to 28-32 ounces at 3 weeks old. He is going to be a big boy!! :)
I still thank God everyday for my precious family, even in the hard times. I am so blessed and I can tell this will be a better week already! :)

I'm glad you're feeling better and up to letting us all see the boys.
They are so precious and I can hardly wait to get my hands on them again. Take care. Love you all.

Jodi, boy what a week I am glad Tish was with you. Wish you were closer Tish and I could trade taking care of the boys while you were at work-don't know what Lisa would say when I brought them to work Ha!! Can't wait until Thursday to get my share of hugs. Justin is so excited he is having a hard time remebering not to say BABY LOGAN!!! Heard about the restaurant melt down. Need Stephen to tell me what he said so we can try it on Justin. Love you all, Barbara
