Trip of a Lifetime...

My hands are a little full....moments before Daddy came home

I mean trip of a LAST TIME. I think it's safe to say that Cam and I won't be spending 9 days apart again anytime soon. I have never been so happy to see my hubby pull up on Saturday night. I had a great first half of the week. My aunt and cousin came in town from Oklahoma and helped us. They helped me with all the feeding, diapering, bathing, waking up in the middle of the night, entertaining a 3 year old watching the ipad babysit Harper, baking, cleaning etc.....I think I got the good end of this deal :)

He now charges the ipad in his room every night....we have created a monster

I loved spending time with them and it was so nice to have 24 hour help when things were crazy....because you know things get crazy when the hubby leaves. For starters I had every salesman in town ringing my doorbell...Houston Chronicle, Lawn care, Omaha Steak, and North Carolina Furniture sales guy! Weird, it's like they knew I was alone.

I took Hogan to the doctor on Monday because he was super fussy and not stooling. He was arching his back and the nurse had me convinced that he had silent reflux. I could not stand to see my little guy in so much pain...Anyone else heard of silent reflux? Hogan was a happy little guy at the appointment so the doctor didn't even discuss reflux, he gave me miralax to help with his other problem. Prayers that Hogan figures out the potty business and returns to his happy little self.

Hampton had me super worried one night because he was spitting up massive amounts of bright red blood. I thought for a second he had Kool-aid! Poor little guy had ingested blood while nursing, disgusting....we are not vampires! Hampton is so laid back, so this is no surprise that he happily nursed for 25 minutes and didn't make a single complaint.

Those were the highlights of my crazy week, I can't even remember what else we did. I am so thankful for all the amazing people in my life who helped me over the 9 days. I could not have done it without you, I would make a horrible single parent...I am happy to report that shalom has been restored in the home!!
