We are back

4. September 2008 by Julie.

Sorry its been awhile.  Life has been busy and hell, I’ve been enjoying my lil guy so much.  I feel like there’s not enough time in the day anymore.  I try to give equal attention to Thomas at night  to make sure he doesn’t feel left out.  I think I’m more worried about that than he is. Well, My girlfriend Karin had her baby.  And yes!!  Its a boy also.  Kolton is his name and he was 6lbs. 1 oz.  I visited her today and both are doing well.  He’s a week old and Ryan next to him looks like a tank.  It was so funny.  Ryan is only 7lbs but next to a new newborn he’s huge.  Ryan is doing well.  He’s a good sleeper during the day.  Already on a schedule with napping.  At night he sleeps good at first and after that first wake up it goes down hill.  He’s wide eyed at 4am but he’s smiling and cooing.  How could I not talk to him.  Tom wishes I would shut up and go back to bed but Ryan looks so darn cute, I have to chat with the little fella. 

Well, it was Thomas’s first day of 5th grade.  I can’t believe he’s this old already and here I’m starting all over again.  I didn’t go back to school this year and I’m missing it.  Its just getting into a new routine I guess.  I miss all my friends at school and the kids.  We did a lot of laughing.  Kids can have such a sense of humor.  I have to find out how my Josh did.  He doesn’t have me or an aid this year and we sad that I wasn’t going to be there with him.  I hope he did okay.

Saturday, it is our 11th year anniversary.  Tom is taking me out to dinner downtown to an awesome steak house.  I love steak.  It’ll be nice to have a date night with him.  Its been quite sometime.  I feel like 11 years is a long time with everything we’ve been through but I wouldn’t trade him for the world even though he still can’t find certain things without my help. Typical man.  Well, life is hectic with football, Ryan, and now school but this is what I’ve wanted for a long time.  Chaos, stress, love, craziness, its all good. Its all normal!!  Thanks for checking in. Thanks for your support.  Don’t forget my baby girl.  She gave Ryan her blue eyes.  She’s our angel and we miss her even more. We love you sweetheart and we thank you for sending another angel down to us.  Signing off……
