Coming up for air

March 19th, 2009 by adrienne

WOW. It is March 19th, 2009, which means it has officially been over a month since I even logged into this blog and two months since I posted anything of substance. Granted this feels like the first time I’ve had time to breathe in about as long…

For those of you who see me on Facebook or my mommy message boards, you know what we’ve been busy doing and this post will basically be a re-hash of that. For the rest of you, I’m really sorry to have ditched you for all this time. Please accept my apologies and help yourself to a virtual homemade cookie or two. I know you have to imagine how it tastes, but it is guarenteed not to wreck any diet! ;)

So last time we chatted, our newest edition was about two weeks old. He is now almost 3 months old! He is really growing up and FAST! Have a look:

Bub in his carseat

He has some new nick names: Bub, Dude, Buddy, My Son. He is doing a great job napping and sleeping at night. He’s generally a very happy and content baby and we are so thankful to have him in our family. And, since I know someone will ask, so far he is not displaying any health issues. Praise the Lord!

Bamberina turned 2 a few weeks ago and is really turning into a little girl. Bye-bye babyhood!

Miss Munchkin waiting to eat breakfast

We have actually had the little Miss in an intensive physical therapy program for the past several weeks. The actual program ran for four weeks and was 4 hours a day, 5 days a week. We saw HUGE improvements in her physical strength and cognitive development. I will do some separate posts on that topic over the next few days, but suffice to say, it’s been BUSY around here with being out of the house so much!

Hubby and I are doing well. The man of the house continues to go and toil for a living and I’m so thankful for him providing for our family’s needs and allowing me to stay home with our children.

Anyway, that’s about. Thanks for reading!

Yeah for Gyros!

(This is me getting ready to eat gyros for a breakfast a couple of Saturdays ago. YUMMY!)
