Totally Boring

Behold – the worlds most boring post. We did nothing today. Not a thing. Well, I guess I did dishes, but that was it. Dekker was grumpy and Laela had another cranky day of not eating. I’m not sure whats up with the kids. Maybe they have the winter blues too? Either way, they just took lots of attention and cuddles, which I am more than happy to provide, and we survived another day.

One fun positive is that Bradys mom officially booked a vacation for the whole family! Bradys parents, siblings, and all the kids will be getting together at the Fairmont Hot Springs resort in a few months for a few days!!! The accommodations are great, and the togetherness is even better. Dekker warmed up to his cousins with these last two visits much better than we expected, and I’m excited to see him remember them and fall back into the swing of things. Also, Dekker’s eye surgery will be long done with at that point, and I wonder if some of his tantrums in groups will be healed by that as well. I know my mom said I was the same way before I had my eye surgery. Granted, I was much younger than him, but crowds overwhelmed me, as they do Dekker. I’m excited thinking about all the possibilities.

Other than that great news though, we didn’t do much at all. Dekker was exhausted and asleep before 2:00 in the afternoon so that was early and different, but the nap was a nice break from the constant whining. I promise, I adore my kids! But I’m also just trying to be honest. When everything I say is met with a just a whiney “uuuuu…” sound, the days get long.

So the big little is down for the night, the little little is having some milk and we’re crossing our fingers that it stays in. Once she’s down, or at the very least, calm, we’re going to finally have some supper. I’m super hungry!! I know eating this late isn’t going to help me lose my baby weight, but I’m indulging. Tonight, my drug of choice is perogies and wings.

Sorry for the boring post, guys!!!
