Want the bad news or the good news?.. Haha. Alright, I'll start with the bad news. Well, just over a week ago my teeth started hurting really bad; and we don't have insurance. But, luckily Brandon had bought one of those online groupons to get x-rays, check up and a cleaning. So, I went a few days ago and the bad news is I need to get a lot of work done on my teeth. I knew it was going to be bad by the way I felt. Pregnancy killed my teeth. That and not seeing the dentist for about a year and a half. Blah. At least the dentist gave me a perscription and I'm already feeling a lot better. And since Brandon's uncle is a dentist, I'm going to fly to Ohio for a week and visit family and friends and hopefully get at least the most expensive dental work taken care of there. Phew! I'm really glad to be able to get it taken care of. It really is amazing how much even just a problem in your teeth can make you feel awful! The right side of my face and even my head was hurting really bad. And it's hard when you don't feel 100%, then add to that being tired from taking care of an infant all on my own.
I have so many projects I want to start right now! I have fallen in love with DIY/crafting blogs, and I am eager to get some things done for my home. I'm also working on some stuff for my girls at church, which has been fun. I hope that I can accomplish it all and that it all comes together for them. Brandon's last day at his internship is on Wednesday!! Can't believe we can finally close the book on this 2 job nightmare. And to make it even nicer, Brandon's manager salary will be raised to compensate! I still might pick up a shift here or there at Disney.. maybe haha. It's just hard to imagine leaving my dear sweet boy for too long.
Speaking of which, Liam is only days away from turning 6 months old. Dang, where have these past 6 months gone?! Hard to believe the tiny newborn with his chocolate brown hair is no longer a newborn! (And his hair is kind of an auburn color now, and he has even more of it!) He is still just the sweetest baby. The last few days I have really been reveling every moment with him; especially the cuddling. Everytime I have been holding him as he is drifting off to sleep, I've been holding him extra long, not wanting to give him up to his bed. I almost wish I could freeze time and keep him just the size he is. I know exciting developments are going to come and that he will still be a sweet little boy, but the thought of him not being my baby boy kind of breaks my heart. I am so grateful that I'm his mom. What a beautiful gift he has been to his daddy and I, we love him to pieces. I love when he sees me, how his eyes light up and he gives me a big toothless grin. I love the way he stretches when I pick him up and snuggles into me as he is still waking up. I love whispering in his ear, secrets for just the 2 of us. I love his happy sounds and how you don't even have to see him smile to know that he is pleased about something. I love how everything is a toy to him and how he can get into things. I love how when he has something he isn't supposed to, how firm of a grip he has! I love his easy laughter when you kiss or blow a rasberry on his tummy. I love how quickly he can get across the room by only rolling. I love his beautiful blue eyes and his crazy hair. I love the way he smells, especially his hair after beeing washed. I love how when he is scared, his cries only last about 10 seconds, then he is over it. I love the way he looks at his daddy, like he is the coolest thing ever. I love the way he tries so hard to sit and stand when he is just a little guy. I love that he loves baths like I do. I love the way he loves to roll, even when I'm trying to change him. I love the way that he laughs when I'm telling him that he is being a bad baby. I love his little hands and they way he holds me when I'm feeding him. I love his easy going personality and how he is always happy. Is there anything I don't love about this kid?? I try to find something.. but I just can't.
