Home

I have decided that I don't do well to be away from home for too long. I'm not only home sick for my husband, I'm also homesick for my house. I get to spend two days there Sunday and Monday, and I almost don't want to come back to Jacksonville. I'll have to. Until we own a van one day, it takes two cars to get two children and me back home with all of our stuff.
This post, though just started is going to have to wait. James is having a difficult time falling asleep. I'm going to go help. Hopefully this will end soon.

Yesterday and Today

Today has started out pretty normal. We got up around 9. I found out that Alex had soaked through his pjs again, and had to clean that up. Then we had breakfast(all three of us).

Today is Duane and Trevor's day to mow my parents' yard, and they showed up during breakfast. When Trevor was almost finished with the back yard, he chose to take Alex for a ride. I'm not sure what Alex thought about that, but he acted like he had fun. He smiled a couple of times.

My computer wont let me upload the video.=(

Tony has decided that we can't afford to have him come see us every weekend. =( He's missing out on so much of James' development, and I can tell that Alex is starting to miss him. This will be the longest that we have been apart since we got married. It will be 3 weeks before Alex gets to see Tony again. James and I will see him briefly when I go for my 6 week check up in Tally on the 24th, then we have to come back for one more week.

Well... this was supposed to post yesterday. My computer had other ideas. Since trying to post this yesterday, Alex has gotten sick, we've taken him to the doctor, and I've had to feed him a bland diet and pray he keeps it down. Thankfully he has kept his food down for now. He has taken a 4 hour nap, and is still sleeping. I'm slightly worried about James. I was told to keep them away from each other, and while I've been successful at keeping them from touching and breathing on each other, they have been in the same room a couple of times today. Now James is spitting up everything I give him except myself, but when I nurse he acts like he's still starving. He's had a good nap today, and he has enjoyed laying on his quilt today. He's getting so big!!! Today he grabbed my face and patted it a couple of times. =) He's doing better at holding his head up while on his tummy, and has learned to move his arms on his own when I roll him onto his tummy. I'm a proud momma. I love my boys so much!! Yesterday when Alex was his sickest, we gave him some Tylenol and Motrin. Within a few minutes he went from clinging to me to smiling at me when I tickled his face and telling me that he loves me. Motherhood has definately made me a weeper.
Well, I hear Alex calling me. Hopefully this will post this time...
