My parents came over to pick NHL up and take him to lunch. Then we decided to meet them at Hoffman’s Playland to take enjoy rides and take some photos there. They did some rides before we got there, but we managed to see a bunch. Here are two slide shows of some of the things we did today. Enjoy!

The Wiggles are coming here in October!!!!
Not sure why, but I decided to go to The Wiggles website. For the heck of it I decided to look at tour dates. They must have added dates really recently since they haven’t even announced this here and it isn’t on the Ticketmaster website. So now the great debate begins about taking NHL (JSL is too little). He really loved it last year. We’ll have to think about it since tickets will not be on sale for a while (in August).

Boy do the weekends go quickly.
Yesterday we got ready in the morning for L, D and I to come over. D was coming to help JL to put the AC in the upstairs so we can clean it up and turn it into a playroom to utilize the space there. Unfortunately NHL was in a foul mood and did not want to play with I. For the first few hours NHL was in his room sulking and crying on his bed. He kept calling for me and asking me to play. He was a mess. Jealousy and things really seem to be hitting hard, but in a way where he’s very depressed acting. Based on the behavior we asked my parents to watch the baby so we could do a special big boy night out. We offered it up tonight and he declined to stay with Jacob at Nana and Papa’s house.
Back to yesterday. So while NHL had a fit, the rest of us watched as D and L tried JL’s Nintendo Wii. Then we all realized it was late so L and I went out to get pizza to bring back for everyone. By this time NHL was finally starting to play with I, but was still very cranky. Everyone left after the late lunch and while I was nursing JSL, JL took NHL into his room. I thought they were reading a book, but they fell asleep. I had to get JL up to take JSL so I could go to the pharmacy to pick up my medicine.
During all of this my bleeding continued. It is the same thing every day. At night it’s almost gone and I think it may end. Then from 8-1 it gets really bad and I feel horrible. I’m cringing at the thought of the ultrasound tomorrow, but I want this to end. I seem to be making up for all of the months with no period in the last 6 weeks.
Last night we stayed in and just had a nice night home. I sorted out JSL’s new clothes in 3-6 month, got NHL’s stuff out and washed it. Too bad we didn’t have any gift receipts for some of the things because we have a lot of items in this size and won’t have others since NHL and JSL are going to be different sizes in different season. Oh well.
JSL went to sleep at 10:30 in his room with NHL. He slept all night and woke up a little after 7 this morning. This morning we met up with my father for breakfast at “Bob’s Diner” for our anniversary. After that we went to Target for a few things (forgot to get more burp cloths) and then tried to get NHL’s hair cut. Unfortunately the girl that does the best and will deal with his fits with the clippers wasn’t there. Then we went home since I was cramping a lot again and needed to rest.
At home we did lunch and then the boys went outside to play with NHL’s soccer net. JSL and I eventually went outside and we had a nice time outside talking with our neighbor. NHL and I look like we may have slight sunburn since we didn’t put anything on and stayed out too long. BAD MOMMY! Then we came in and my parents called to see what we were going to do with the boys for dinner. NHL opted to go to their house with JSL. So, JL and I went out to dinner together and did a little shopping at the mall before that. After we went to the rents house and they had a cookie cake for our anniversary. Then we went home, got NHL into bed and it was time to tub the little monkey that smelled from spitting up so much.
It was the never ending tub with thing after thing that happened. To sum it up:
1 – A little poop in tub. Mommy cleans it out and back in.
2 – WHOA BABY – major action in the rear . . . lots more poop in tub. (Note this is a little tub in the sink – so it gets nasty quickly).
3 – Baby out of tub to clean it one more time. While out he manages to pee all over me (*rolling eyes*)
4 – Back into the tub again only to puke in the water this time and successful washing. Thank goodness since we were running out of clean baby wash cloths that I could locate.
5 – We managed to get him out and dressed without any more “fun” However interesting to note while Daddy was dressing him he was crying and farting to a beat. The kid is musical already!
6 – After cleaning up the tub the baby was ready to reload and nursed himself to sleep.
Now the little guy is resting quietly in the papasan chair until we put him into bed in a few minutes.
I am off to rest since I am NOT looking forward to tomorrow at 11:00 when I have the ultrasound and find out the results of the pathology from what the removed.
Last week while I was home with JSL I received a phone call from the county health department. They asked if I had just had a baby. I told them yes and wanted to know what they wanted. They told me that the newborn baby baby blood screen that JSL had was not done correctly. They asked if I had it redone. I told them it was news to me and to explain what was going on. To make a long story short they goofed and had the wrong doctor listed and never contacted us until almost 4 weeks after JSL was born.
Friday I asked my grandmother to go with JSL and I on a few errands. I picked her up early and we went to my school to wish the kids a nice summer. We were there for a while and my grandmother sat in my classroom and fed JSL. Then we decided to head to AMCH to have JSL’s new born screen redone. UGH! The paperwork at the lab before was a PITA. Then the test itself was horrid. I swear if I had witnessed it when he was born I would have refused to have it done. It was horrible to witness. My grandmother actually had to walk away since she couldn’t watch it any longer. When the torture was over my grandmother and I went to the cafeteria to have lunch. After lunch we went back to my house to regroup. I was able to change JSL, he had some milk and I was able to pump since I was so uncomfortable.
Next we were on a mission to get JL a Father’s Day gift. NHL and I had already gotten something for the boys to give Daddy, but I needed something. I was debating a few things, but had one thing in particular in mind. I was going to head to Target, but said that Toys R Us may have it. Since my grandmother had not been there in years we went there. We wandered around. She bought JSL some bibs, NHL some cars, and Sesame Street Wallies for the spare room. Our last stop was the gaming area. I looked all around and didn’t see what I was looking for. So I walked up to the guy and said “Please don’t laugh at my question. . . ” He cut me off and told me to look up where the Wii’s were location! I was in shock – there were 20 or so Wii’s there. I had never actually seen one in a store no less that many. So I decided to get the Wii and shock JL with it for Father’s Day, our anniversary (which is this coming Sunday), and his B-day (early August). After that we went to the Deli Warehouse to see the produce there and then I took my grandmother home.
Saturday we went on a bunch of errands (BJ’s, Deli Warehouse, Ryan’s Produce Market. . . . ). That evening my parents called to see if they could take NHL to dinner. He went with them and we had dinner here and then went to return a movie (and get Charlotte’s Web for NHL) and to the grocery store for a few quick things. When NHL came home he had a package in his hands. He sat down and started to open it. JL questioned him about it. He said it wasn’t for him and was for JL and to open it. Apparently while out and about NHL, Nana and Papa found something for only NHL to get Daddy for Father’s Day (he insisted it was just from him). JL opened it and it was an amazing dinosaur tie. JL actually wore it to work Monday and NHL was so proud since he helped to pick it out.
Sunday morning the boys both slept a little late. When NHL woke up we went to the living room with JL to give him his gifts. First NHL did the gift from the boys. It was from Build A Bear and was a little box with Thing 1 and Thing 2 in it. It’s adorable and perfect since those are our pet names for the boys. Next it was my turn. I left the bag in the hall and made JL go to get it. So there sat a Toys R Us bag with the Wii inside. He was floored. Apparently he had a dream about opening a bag with a Wii in it for Father’s Day. So now that he’s psychic he must get the lotto numbers! ;)
After that we had a small breakfast. We met my rents and grandmother for lunch at Cracker Barrel and then went to Target to get a few things. After that we met L and I back at our house so the boys could play. The plan was to let them run and play in the sprinkler and pool. So they came at 3:30 and the boys (with JL) were outside for 2 hours. We have great photos on our website, but below I will include a few for now. While the boys were outside L helped me to cut my fabric and made a Moby to wear JSL. We did that and went outside with JSL in the Moby. Within minutes the poor baby was a bright RED tomato. We went back in to cool off. After the boys came in and were dry we packed them up to have dinner out.
It was a busy weekend! Now we just need to break open the Wii for JL to try (he still hasn’t had a chance to do that yet). On that note I am off to debate heading to school to clean my classroom after JSL is up and fed. Not sure if he’s in a mood for that given the mouth irritability.
