hello hello...So, it has been quite a while since I blogged but life is just plain busy!!! I wanted to put up some pictures especially for my brother and sister-in-law since I KNOW they are just as busy as we are with thier little bundle of joy, CONNOR, and probably don't see them on facebook like the rest of my fam/friends.Owen is doing AmAzIng. I don't think I could ask for a better baby through ALL of this craziness going on. He has began sleeping through the night from like 8 pm to 6 or 7 a.m. which is amazing (so why am I still so tired?! :) ) They past few days have been a little rough b/c he caught a cold and wakes himself up coughing, but for the most part, he falls back to sleep...Even though he is coughing and stuffed up, he is still smiley and happy for the most part :) He started day care last week, and is doing great there! He already has a girlfriend, according to Ms. Kate (my friend Katie is his teacher at the school :) :) ) Owen gets set up next to this beautiful baby girl in his class about his age, and they just coo and smile at each other :) He is a flirt already! I have stopped breastfeeding, and Owen transitioned to formula great, and loves his cereal...as you can see in the pictures, he is getting chunky finally! He is rolling from his stomach to back, and gets so close to rolling from his back to stomach, but just gets pissed off :) He wants to stand all the time, I have a feeling he is going to start crawling and walking early by the way he is acting right now! He talks ALLL the time, and screams happy squeals that just make you laugh out loud...and when you can make him belly laugh, it just melts your heart!!!!!! He is just awesome, I could go on and on and on...he is just my light in my life right now :)
Work is work for the both of us. Ryan is still working long hours, sometimes staying up until midnight...I try to go to bed early and get to work as early as I can, so I can get back to Owen as soon as I can. I am picking up some hours a couple Saturdays a month at the Noblesville nursing home that my grandmother lives in, so every morning I get there, I go get my grandma and she spend the day with me in the therapy gym:) :) She loves it, and it makes me happy to get to spend time with her. She motivates my patients, and even gets a little fiesty with them if they give me a hard time :) hahaha!!!
Unfortunately, nothing really to report on our house. We lowered the price dramatically after the first of the year, and we get consistent showings each week, BUT still no bites or offers...THIS is our biggest stressor. I drive myself crazy getting my hopes up with each call that we have a showing, then they get crushed b/c the buyer is not interested. Now that Owen is getting older, I am getting more worried how he is going to adapt to our current living situation. I try not to think about it, but my mind just races all the time with all these worries...And poor Guinness, he is basically just ignored and that makes me feel even more guilty. Sometimes I second guess myself, and ask myself if we made the right decision to move back home. I know in the long run, this is the best decision though, and all these challenges we are facing will make us appreciate it when we finally do sell and we finally do get to live in our own house again with a big backyard for Guinness :) :) (not that he even uses it...haha, lazy guy, but you know what I mean :) :) ) Keep in touch and email me or call and let me know how you all are doing too!
