In passing...

It has been so long since I last blogged, I'm not sure I know how to do it anymore! It's been a busy life being a SAHM. My life revolves around Drake and when he eats, plays, and sleeps...which is just fine with me. But, sometimes I wonder if I'll ever have time to myself again. Probably not. Well, I have good and bad news. First the good.

Drake had his 2 month check up. His shots hurt me more than they hurt him! I tried so hard to keep it together at the doctor's office. Pat me on the back...I didn't cry in public! Ha! He weighed (at his checkup a week ago) 13.6 pounds and is 24 1/2 inches long! Big boy! The doctor said he was the size of an average 4 month old! I'm so glad. I don't know what I'd do with a little baby!

Now the bad. I just got in from Florida on Tuesday. I went down last Wednesday. My grandfather was in his last few days. He was moved from the hospital to his home on Wednesday where a nurse from hospice stayed around the clock. I won't go into the details, but he passed away on Friday, February 12, 2010. He was a wonderful grandfather and I know he is in a better place. He is with God and my grandmother, where he wanted to be. I love you Grandpa Dale. You will be greatly missed. :'( <3

Drake did well on the trip to Florida, but he lost out on a few naps during the day, which led to one crabby baby at night. Once he fell asleep, however, he was out. He will sleep anywhere from 9:30 to 5:30ish. Sometimes later, so I'm not complaining!
