More Family Pictures

My Boys

We got family pictures last Sat. and I love these pictures of the boys.
I’m so lucky to have such a great husband and Dad for our kids.

Too Cute Not To Share

Here are some pictures of Hayden. He is getting so big I can’t believe he is almost 7 weeks old.

Whack-A-Baby

Well today Connor showed his first true signs of jealousy towards Hayden. After getting Connor out of the tub and dressing him I went to feed Hayden and Connor didn’t like that I stopped paying attention to him, so he started lightly kicking me. I moved and he stopped then he stood up walked over to me and Hayden and softly whacked him on the head with his hand. Hayden didn’t cry, but Connor was pretty pleased with himself then he walked away and started playing.



I had a little talk with him, but really, who knows if he understood any of it. I have to say six weeks and this is the first mean thing he has done, which isn’t too bad, but then again it’s never good either. I’ll just have to watch Connor more closely from now on and try to give him more attention.

Mastitis What Is It?

The definition of mastitis:



“Mastitis is a breast infection that can leave you feeling as if you've come down with the flu. You may notice areas of redness, hardness, soreness, or heat in your breast, and swelling of the affected milk duct. Common, and more serious, signs of the infection include chills, a fever of 101 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, and fatigue.”



Yep, I got it again. This is now the 4th time I have had mastitis, but the first with Hayden and I think I can say that this one was the worst of the bunch. It started last Friday night and the soreness and redness has still been lingering. I think Saturday was the worst. I had a fever between a 101 and 103.5 all day, chills, nausea and I even threw up. My fever finely broke around 4:00 am on Sunday morning. To make things even worse I also was trying to fight off a cold with no luck because the cold has got worse throughout the week.



With that said, I am so thankful and in debt to my wonderful husband who took care of me and all three kids. Getting up with Hayden at night, up early with Connor in the morning and he was even able to get a little cleaning done around the house. I’m not quite sure how to thank him. He truly is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I love you so much babe and thanks for every thing you have done for me and the kids.
