Bostyn: Bostyn is still as cute as ever! Cant believe she is already 5 weeks old! Were having so much fun watching her change and seeing her grow! Being a mommy is the best and I couldn't have asked for a better baby! She's doing a little better at nights, she wakes up about 2 times still but were just really having trouble getting her to sleep in her crib. Since day one we started her in there and she has HATED it. She just doesn't like the big space, she realizes where she is and freaks out! getting 6 hours sleep max is already hard enough, we get half that when shes in her crib. The other night my shift with her was not so good. It was like 3 in the morning and she had SO MUCH energy! I couldn't get her to calm down, she started crying too for no reason after I fed her and changed her diaper and went through the whole list. So I finally had to go lay her down in her crib and just let her cry it out. It was complete torture! I just sat on the floor and cried next to her door, but I'm really trying to get her used to her crib. Unfortunately she cried for about a half hour straight so I had to pick her up and calm her down. It was so sad, I'm sure most of you mothers have had similar experiences, and know how if feels to listen to your baby cry like that. Other then sleeping some nights, she has been just perfect! Mckay gets more and more attached to her everyday, and a little more protective its so fun to watch him play with her.....and when I say play it usually means her sitting next to him while he's on the X Box hahah. Its quite funny! She so funny when I turn music on she totally starts moving her arms and her body like shes dancing haha its awesome! But really not a ton going on with us right now but here are a few things from last week!
Mac: Mckay is really busy with work and school like always it seems. Mondays and Tuesdays he's gone from 8am-10pm! Those days are rough! Mornings he goes to math, then work till 5 then to his CNA class till about 9:30 The rest of the week is work. I really wish there was more to report on his life, but sadly thats it for him right now. But he loves seeing his friends when we can! We do our best to make that work, so he can also have some stress free time with his friends.
Ash: For me! I'm just loving being a mommy! Its harder then I expected. Not being able to sleep, eat, go to the bathroom and so on haha but I'm loving more then I thought I would. I'm surprised to say though that I miss working, Mac and I talked about me going back in a few months. I need the balance if work and home. As much as I would love to run an office again I'll probably just do assisting part time. I couldn't handle being away from bostyn full time. So sometime in the future I'll be working again. But as of now, I'm happy home with my bostyn. At night I really enjoy going to cycling with my sister! Its really helping me feel like my self again and get my body back!!!
It is so hard to listen to your baby cry I cry too when things like that happen! I would love to do your hair!
