Who needs sleep...

Marc has been kind of difficult latley... He is in this stage where he cries and cries and cries and when you think he is finally asleep you guessed it he cries some more... Its difficult because I have Xavier to take care of as well and I often feel like he may be left out... I remember Xavier was the same way when he was a few weeks old so I am just hoping we get over this and fast!

Its pretty late here... I am just waiting for Marc to wake up from his nap and hoping that after a quick change and feed he will fall asleep so we can sleep... Last night I got maybe 4 hours of sleep. I am exhusted... He stayed awake from around 3am till 7am and I finally got him to sleep in my bed... I know some people think its horrible to do that but sometimes it gets to a point where nothing else works... He looked so cute snuggled up in my bed this morning.

I love my bed so comfy!

I told hubby before Marc was born that I wanted to invest in making my room/ bed extra comfy because I knew we would never sleep so when we did get the chance to rest I wanted to be extra comfortable... Our room is pretty crammed because we are sharing it with Marc until our lease is up next year. At first it bothered me with all the stuff in our room but keeping the furniture and bedding pretty clean and white helped it somehow become more cozy then cluttered. I ordered a green polkadot headboard from walmart a month ago and I love it.. Hubby doesn't care for the pattern but he said it functions great for late night feedings (and from our pillows falling behind the bed)... The quilt I had cutom made from MomNMiaQuilts with fabrics that I had been holding on to. I was way to afraid to mess them up. She did a great job and it was very affordable... I even had a quilt made for Marc.... Speaking of quilts I have been meaning to start a new on I just need to find time...

PS we never got any sleep so I am pretty much exhausted!

Sunshine...

Yesterday's weather was perfection... Not too hot, not too cold... I love the days when you can wear a light hoodie and be perfectly comfortable, that's my kind of day. We took the boys to the park to enjoy the weather... And today is supposed to be hotter but we will be stuck inside.

Xavier got a big boy haircut... its crazy how new hair can much such a huge difference... speaking of new hair i got a new mommy haircut and color a week or so again... Love the changes going on... New hair, new family member...

Hanging in there...

Marc (Marc-ee) is now a little over a week old and today is a sad day because hubbies leave is now over =( boo... Ten days went by too fast. Luckily they now will be getting off at 3pm on Thursdays, family day! Xavier has been pretty good with the baby... Sometimes when he cries he goes and checks on him. Most the time he just tells the baby "Hi" or knocks on his blanket... I know odd but oh so cute.

I love my boys, they are the best!

Blessed...

Hello...

I swear no one reads this anymore but its probably my own fault... I figure I would continue blogging for myself...This little man is officially 2 today. He is currently licking my knee saying "nummies". I guess I need to feed him. With the doctors ok we headed down to visit my parents on Sat. where Xavier got his new Power Wheel and a million Tonka Cars... We opened presents, we ate cake, he had a great time. He was so cute... his power wheel was still in the box when he arrived (who knew you had to literally build the dang thing)... He rolled the wheels around, brought the big boys the parts, he really wanted it put together... and as soon as it was finished he was perfectly content opening and closing the doors... getting in and out... or just sitting inside watching his favorite cartoons.

For something a little more random I think I know what hubby should get me for mothers day...

Love the new print! And Mothers day is the perfect excuse for a new purse right? Other then that we are still waiting... luckily the baby wasnt born on Xavier's birthday so we don't have to worry about future fights of who stole who's birthday and what the theme of the birthday party should be... I hope... but there is still some hours left in the day so I guess you never know. I guess the only other day we would like to dodge is April Fools because no one will believe us right...

Waiting...

There are signs of baby everywhere just no baby...yet. I am nearing week 38 of pregnancy, about the same time I had Xavier almost 2 years ago so now we are really just anxious... At the same time I am really ok with baby taking his time. I am enjoying Xavier and the quiet nights for now.

We went out today to a scrapbooking store and to GameStop. Hubby wanted a new game. I was getting a lot of contractions throughout the day, the felt more "real" since they were consistent and in my back but when we got home they went away. The waiting part is the worst, not knowing. I having a million things running through my head. What if I go into labor in the middle of the night and I cant get ahold of anyone to pick up Xavier (family is an hour away)? Then we will have to bring him to the hospital while I have the baby =X eek. Or, what if I go into labor around 5 and I cant get ahold of hubby and when I do he gets stuck in traffic? Aigoo... I am so worried... pray that everything works out and I am just losing my mind... which I think I am losing my mind... I've done the nesting, and lately I have just been so irratable and annoyed... I spent most the weekend laying in bed resting because I want to be well rested for the pain, whenever that is...

Well I hope everyone else had a great weekend!

I made something...

Which is amazing... Well, not what I made but the fact that I actually made something...

Other then that we are waiting for baby... No hurry we will just wait but we are excited to meet little Marc. Oh thats weird saying that =)
