Plumbing Problems...

So much for thinking that rice cereal would help Jack sleep through the night. After bathing him he got real fussy so we tried to put him down early. Well putting him down early turned into one of the latest nights we have had. We aren't sure if it had to to with the barium tummy issues, the cereal, possibly teething, or seperation anxiety when we left the room....no matter what it was...Jack wouldn't go to bed and cried his eyes out for about 4 hours. Finally we were able to get him to sleep in our bed lying next to me and we transfered him to his crib. From there he slept through the night. Nick made a comment that this was the worst night thus far in Jack's life but I had to remind him of those wonderful nights in the beginning when we slept on the living room floor with our hand on his chest while he cried in the bouncy seat....my how far we have come.

Today again Jack had terrible tummy issues. We called the on call nurse and so after Nick ran to the store for infant apple juice and infant suppositories we are hoping for a better night.

Tomorrow is Nick's first day to report back to school. I wish I could say we had a productive Summer and the house is all organized and we are ready to go for the year but I often wonder...will we ever be all organized and ready to go? I feel like we still haven't come above water for more than a few breaths since Jack was born. It's not my way of life, but Jack is my way of life so I'll live.

GRAB BAG JACK
Only $10 for an envelope of pictures of Jack from the Sam's development. Some you have seen, but some are never before seen photos....he will even autograph one for you. E-mail me if you are interested in placing an order and we'll get them out to you as soon as possible. Just think what a treat that would be in your mailbox one day.
