Andrew's First Flight

Our flight was great, except the whole leaving thing. I was pleasently suprised that walter was allowed to help me onto the plane. He was on the plane sitting next to me and I was like, geez you should just come with me. But he didnt. And I seriously didnt know how much I'd miss him.I mean I only left this morning and I'm like agh I dont ever want to travel without him again. I cried when he was walking off the plane. And I cried as we took off, it wasnt until 20 mins in that I stopped. I seriously wish he could've come. I mean I knew I'd miss him, But I didnt realize how much. Its Just an achy feeling that he isnt here. I've already talked to him like 6 times today. Andrew on the plane was awesome. He was soo good. He didnt cry or sleep, he flirted with the all the people around him. LOL He was smiling and laughing and took a small nap that last about 20 mins of our 3 and a half hour flight. But he was so cute and precious.
Well I've got to go.. I'm exhausted.

Shots

My little guy got shots yesterday. Poor thing. If I could get them for him I would. He didnt realize he got the first one, but he felt the rest. He was ok yesterday, a little sore, but that also can be from the teething. But today he spit up and it was yellow. And Im not sure how normal that is. It was only a tiny tiny bit that he actually spit up, but the fact it was yellow bugs me, I'm watching him closely (he is napping now) and if it happens again, im gonna call his doctor. Other than that he is still happy, sitting up by himself, kinda wobbaly but for the most part he's pretty centered. I never truely realized how much a baby can change your life. But it was such a smooth and welcomed change.

Today

Much to do today. Andrew has a doctors appt. today, and that wil be very interesting because i get to see how much my little booger has grown in the past two months. Then we have a lunch date at 130, and then i want to clean the house up pretty decent. Then walts buddy is coming over to work on his drums. The drummer that i guess will be his drummer for beyond driven is this guy tony. he was in another local band OZ. So yea, he is alittle rusty, but is pretty good.
Then tomorrow i have work for like 3 hours and im gonna make some money which will be sweet because we have bils that are on the verge of being overdue....
So Ive got a busy couple of days coming up. Then i go to MA.. :( Im happy to go but i really wish walt could go to.... sad.. lol

Going Going gone..

LOL As you may be able to tell I'm going somewhere. Well I'm flying to Boston for a few days. I'm leaving the 18th, Just Andrew and I. Walt and Ozzy will be home. And I'm really going to miss him. We've only spent a night apart... Wow and now for the first time in almost 3 years I'm going to be apart from my Wallabee. LOL. I'm kinda sad. I really wish he could come wit us, but he needs to stay and make money... we dont have alot and It is really needed. Soo I'm going alone. :( sad...

Break in... Almost

So someone tried to break into our back yard. Nice right. And what's sad is that I'm pretty sure we know who did it. Walt was mowing the yard and was in between the boat and our privacy fence and he noticed that fence was pulled off of it's main rig. And its obvious someone tried to climb it. But stopped their efforts to get over the fence once they realized there is barbed wire on the top. And we know exactly who tried to break in. There is a house two doors down from us that has three kids on house arrest, cops are always there, and it's a known crack house. Nice neighborhood to raise a baby huh?
Other than that money is tight, walt hasn't had steady flow of work, but his philosophy is that if you want money and lust for it you will never have it. But if you just relax and go with the flow and do what you need to do, you will be ok. But honestly I want to be more than ok. I want us to be able to save for longer than a few months. I want us to have reserves that last more than one months bills. But I guess according to Walt I need to not want that stuff otherwise we will never have it. I really hate rich people. They have it pretty darn easy. They even get tax breaks from the president. But as walt just pointed out there are alot of rich people out there that are reallly unhappy, so I guess we are better off. LOL at least we are happy!!!!! ;p So yea, and its a big long continuous cycle... Rich people, rich kids, then they have money.. then their kids have money. and so on and so on. Vicious cycle! lol. But I know one day we wont have to worry about the money. It will take care of itself. We just have to keep our head above the water for right now.
Andrew is having a sweet slobberfest right now lol.

Friday

So I'm sitting at the celtic with walt and drew. And Drew is soooo funny. Walt is sitting with him on his lap and has his guinness sitting in front of him, and Andrew wants its sooo bad! he keeps reaching for it and when he cant reach it he starts to whimper. So cute. And today is bob the bassist in walts band son's birthday. Lennon. He's 2 today ok more than whimpering time for mommy to step in.

Andrew update

So Andrew has started to eat solid foods. So far he has tried organic rice cereal and organic peas. And he seems to like both. I put the spoon in his mouth and he takes it and and mushes around in his mouth then puts his fist in his mouth and starts sucking on it. Im not sure he has a grasp on how to swallow yet, but last night when I fed the peas to him he seemed to really like those and swallowed those down just fine. So I think he likes those better than the rice cereal. And I don't blame him because I tried both and the peas taste way better. He is so cute. And when I fed him the peas he must of really liked them because he grabbed the spoon out of my hand and decided he wanted to hold it. Such a good baby. He loves sitting in his bouncy seat. And the seat has all these little pooh bear theme toys on it. One of which when you press it down it pays a song. And today he learned how to push it and make the music start. So he sits in his seat and pushes the pooh bear honey jar and a song will play and lights go off and he watches it and when the music stops he pushes it in again. So cute. And he is so smart considering he has only sat in the bouncy seat like 3 times lol. And his hernia is going away slowly. It's about half the size it was when it was at it's biggest. Right now he is laying beside me talking to me. Opening his mouth and saying ahhh ahh ahh ahh lol in various volumes and intensities. lol. I love him. Seriously he is such a gift. I think its soo funny how babies put the soles of their feet together. Now he is grabbing my arm. I guess I'm not paying enough attention to him. So I better go.

Showtime

Showtime 2007 was incredible everyone did amazing, and it was practically drama free. Im looking foreward to starting private lessons over the summer and continue stretch and flex and turns and leaps. Summers are slow for walter and the extra cash is really going to help. And Im doing turns and leaps soo cheap. only 5 dollars a kid per class. And the class is an hour and a half. lol. so they are getting a deal! I hope everyone comes lol.

My Little Prince

Ok, Andrew is awesome. I seriously cannot say it enough. He can practically sit up on his own, he just uses whatever is closest to brace himself. Like right now we are sitting in panera and he is on my knee holding himself up with the table. He squeals and laighs and tries sooo hard to talk to me. He opens his mouth and lets out his voice and tries to copy the shape my mouth makes. And I'm soo lucky he is happy to go to anyone that wants to hold him. He is dependent enough and independent enough. Right now and for the past 2 weeks he's started teething. And he is taking it like a champ. The only time he lets it bug him is at around 6 or 7 pm and he is a little fussy. But I ust start playing with him or check his diaper to take his mind off of it, and it usually works well. God truely blessed me with this little guy.
