It always starts out so sweet:
but things can get ugly so, so quickly. I'm hoping and praying that today is finally the day that Erick will take a very, very long nap so that Victor can have me to himself for a little bit (half an hour even!) once he's home from school. Sharing Mommy is not something he's feeling good about right now. Thank goodness Daddy will be back to double team soon!
Erick and I have had a nice week of outings though. We tried out Little Gym in Edwardsville on Monday. I think we'll probably end up doing it at some point soon but might wait another few weeks or so for budgetary accommodation and also so that Erick can get just a little more sure on his knees because it's a wild, mostly walking group of kiddos. I can already tell that he's going to get into Little Gym a little more than Victor did though.
Music was splendid as always this week. Erick sits right in front on his teacher and bounces and babbles and smiles at her. He may be in love. And Playpals today was also good, even if we barely managed to get there. We'll definitely do that again, especially since it's an unbelievable bargain. So we're assembling a pretty busy calendar. Not surprising for me, of course. Just want to make sure we leave some time open for walking/strolling/playing at the park in a few months! | |

Well, Victor slithered into bed with me at 1:00 and then Erick was up for a feeding at 4:30. And yet I feel strangely revitalized! This is because I had a visit from the Erick Entertaining Elf today (PopPaw). Things are looking up now that I got to vacuum and change sheets and shower. I rushed downstairs after I was out of the shower figuring that Erick would be frantic with hunger. This is what I found:
So yeah, I went back upstairs and dried my hair. Bonus! Bedtimes are still a struggle logistically but at least tonight I'll go into it a little more rested. Thank you PopPaw. You make me glad I moved 900 miles. :)

OK, things are slowly but steadily improving. The frigid weather and yet another round of colds is not doing poor Victor any favors though. He's still just not himself but at least he's more responsive than he was. I hope that he holds it together this week (and that I hold it together as well!) because Daddy is out of the picture until Saturday. He's off to Austin so it's me and the boys. If it gives you any idea how well it's going, they are just now sounding like they're possibly asleep but I'm still terrified to try to take a shower. Fun.
We did have a nice day though. We went to breakfast with Mimi & PopPaw and then we took Mimi with us up to see Gaga for the afternoon. The boys both fell asleep on the drive home (hence the less than smooth bedtime). It was good for all of us to get some quality family time in today. Once we were home, I wanted to collapse though. I broke out Victor's old Legos (Quattros rule!) to see what Erick would think of them and they were a hit. The boys played together very nicely for a little while. James, here's what you missed:
