Well it was a rough night last night with boys seeming to need loads of attention. Noah seems to be having teething issues and was up we think from that pain. Josh just wants to eat every 2 1/2 hours! After a rough night, we had a lazy type morning and ended up getting to church just on time barely. We went to lunch after church with some friends, both couples had parents in visiting and it was going to be nice to visit with them all and relax. Ha ha, what were we thinking? Noah wanted to be held most of lunch and was a bit whiny, he obviously was very tired and not feeling great, usually if he doesn't want to sit during lunch he wants to get down and go. Josh needed some attention of course too since he had slept most of church and was wide awake. Oh well, that is what happens I suppose and I only hope that we didn't appear to rude.
After a nap and some tylenol when we got home, Noah was feeling much better. Joshua was pretty content and wanting to play too. We got the bar with hanging animals on it, I'll have to post pictures later of it, but anyway, they were hanging down and Joshua was grabbing onto them and batting at them with his hands! He loves to hang onto things, but it's so cool to see how he's actually getting control of his arms and hands. He even got the cow pulled down several times to make it sing! He's growing so quickly. The nursery workers say that each week Joshua looks so different, they remember Noah had the same look as he grew and got bigger, but Josh looks so different each week. He definitely is growing so quick.
Noah, while he had rough spots today during the day, otherwise was happy and wanting to play. He amazed me this afternoon while he was playing catch with Mike. The had a raquetball they were throwing back and forth and Noah was catching it! He's catching already, I just can't believe it because it wasn't a big beach ball or something, it was a small ball. Wow! He also this morning went to the kitchen and told Mike "wanna eat." He had been repeating eat this week when we would ask him if he wanted to eat, he would say "eat" but this is the first time he came to one of us on his own and told us he wanted to eat. He's defintiley getting more and more independent and it seems his speech is growing by leaps and bounds each week. He is also saying down, though it's not quite so clear yet as some of the other words but it's getting there.
One last note, I finally feel like we can be ready for me to have surgery. There are 4 meals in the freezer, 1 more I'll make and freeze tomorrow for 5 that will just make life easier during that week after. We also now have a gallon and a half of milk in the freezer for Josh for the days that I can't feed him after surgery. So glad that we are ready, we still have a week and a half about before so we'll be extra ready hopefully with a little more milk frozen so we don't deplete the entire stock and have a super clean house. This week will be crazy busy in some ways, lots of figuring out the schedule with the truck and work and meetings and some extra stuff thrown in there too, but we'll try to keep things updated. We took some videos today and will hopefully post tomorrow, for now we're getting ready to get some sleep and hopefully not have kiddos up all night again...we need some rest!
