Cranky

Well we've been rather busy and not busy all at the same time.  Hubby is still on swing shifts and now he had another weekend added.  Positive part it is that he will actually have all of Halloween off, first time in the 3 years he's worked at Simplot.  Pretty excited, its jayden's first real time to dress up and go trick or treating and korwins first in general.  That night i'll for sure take pictures to show off how stinking cute my boys are.. (just a bit biased remember).

Well Korwin was doing so good the past couple of weeks on his sleeping...i got 7 hours in a row one night. I had forgotten how it felt to get a decent nights sleep.  It took a bit of sleep training but we did it!  Well then yesterday he had to get his 4 months shots and then was prescribed to have to drink 1 oz of prune juice twice a day, gotta tell ya he is NOT a fan of the prune juice taste but anyways ( i know he's five months old but we somehow got a month behind, did the same thing with jayden, maybe we just like to be fashionable late or something).  well his shots actually made him a bit sick this time, nothing major just a bit of a fever and just uncomfortable type pains.  Then to top it all of he's getting 2 more teeth on the bottom which will give him 4 teeth.  I sorta wish he could of been like other babies and waiting till 9 months or something. I guess on the other side he'll be done a lot quicker.
Well his 5 month stats came at no surprise of being in the 90th percentile.  He weighed a whopping 18 lbs 14 oz and 27 inches long.  We just grow big kids I guess.

I'm a scatterbrain and haven't the slightest clue where my camera is so yet again no pictures since its a pain in my butt to get them off my phone and im just lazy.  Well i guess other super exciting news is that my sister-in-law the sneaky little devil surprised everyone and dropped the bomb that she is going on a mission!!! I haven't a clue how she kept it a secret but I'm so proud of her and excited for her. She's going to the Calgary Canada mission...i know eh!!  lol  Well she leaves in just a few short weeks to the MTC and its crazy to think we won't see her for 18 months but i think i can speak for the family and say we are so very very proud of her decision to go on a mission.  as the hubby says it truly is the most challenging, rewarding, exciting, scary best 2 years (18 months for her) of your life. It'll be sad to see her go, i know Jayden will miss her and Korwin just thinks she's still the crazy aunt that talks funny to him, but when she gets back he'll be almost 2!  Crazy!

Another Crazy is we are about to have a 3 year in the house, in just a few short weeks Jayden turns 3 and its so weird to think its snuck up on us so fast this year.  I'm excited for him to go into sunbeams in January, i hope his teacher can handle all the crazy kids moving up this year they'll will have their hands full for sure!

Well this was suppose to be a quick update, but i guess it really is since i just scraped the surface of our crazy lives!  Well TTFN!!

One Down

::Have I mentioned how much I HATE Swing-shifts!!! However, we have one weekend down and only three more to go.
::Pretty sure its rougher on the boys than me, they get use to having daddy home at nights and then all the sudden he's home during the day and gone at nights, completely throws them for a loop for several weekends.  then they get use it and then its back to days....its a rough month and 1/2 of weird schedule changes.
::At least this time i have Netflix to comfort me at night and a guaranteed at least one night of late night 7-11 nachos.  I Always crave 7-11 nachos, besides the hubby loves them as much as I do.
:: I need to find a new tv show to watch, ive caught up Grey's and Bones but i need a new one since they don't have House on Streaming yet.
::It hit me the other day that in just over a month i'm going to have a 3 year-old which means come January i have a Sunbeam!!! I already feel bad for his teacher, gonna be some crazy ones going through next year.  Pray for them!
::We found ourselves pretty clever with our Halloween Decorations this year. Once all set up pictures will be shown.  Its a Ironically awesomeness.  Won't be hard to guess if you think about it.  The hubby Loves that he has a cool project and ideas for Halloween though so its all good.
::Jayden is growing like crazy and the past few months is back to putting EVERYTHING in his mouth.  Its nasty enough i have one drooling kid but i really didn't want two.
:: Korwin is just over 4 months and still only has two teethe, but anything near them teeth he tries for all his worth to take a chunk out of; from blankets, noses and his own fingers he bites.  Yes, he has bitten himself and cried about it and then does it again, he's starting to understand that if i bite myself it indeed does hurt, pretty funny to watch though.
::I'm a bit sad these past few weeks.  One of my older brothers is moving.  Not just a little bits a way but to Fredicksburg, Virginia. Wife, 4 kids and him will be leaving good ole hot n sunny st. george this weekend and making the long trek to Virginia.  I was able to see them last weekend but its still sad, gonna be a long while before we get to see them again.  Unless we become rich very quickly....alas i am excited for them to start a new adventure, just wish it wasn't so far away.
:: Down to only 67 days till NFR!! I'm sooooooooooooo very excited.  Won't know what to do without the kids for 4 days...oh wait i know!! sleep, sleep and have a blast!!!
