Big weekend

Little Ford had a big weekend. We started off on Friday with a trip to the pediatrician for his 8 weeks shots. Needless to say I cried more than Ford did. I don’t have any pictures to share of the trip to the doctor’s office, but Trey definitely got some good video footage.
On Saturday Trey wanted to go to Cleveland to eat with some friends. I just wasn’t ready to leave Ford with a babysitter so he came along for the ride. He was an absolute angel. I thought someone had switched my child. He slept the entire time we were in the restaurant and the ride home. It was great!
On Sunday we decided to take Ford to church for the first time. I was completely fine with the idea until we walked into the nursery and I only saw two women working in there. I panicked a bit because it could take both of them to handle Ford! They gave us a pager and Trey and I went to church. Luckily, the pager never went off and they said he did great. We ended our Sunday by going swimming in Puddin and Pop’s pool!

Excited about the road trip to Cleveland

A New Era Begins...

It finally happened…. I got a new cell phone. I have had the same style cell phone since I was in college. It was just a good phone that did exactly what I needed to do… talk and text. Well, recently it fell on the floor and cracked so I super glued it together, which worked nicely. Then it fell again and I taped it up. I decided enough was enough so I gave in and got a new phone. To some who know me this may be a shock, but it’s not a nice phone, just basic. It doesn’t send pictures, or have the internet. It just does what I need it to do…talk and text. I think it’s a cute little phone.



BABY STUFF

I was worried that Ford may have colic and my pediatrician said that he might. You don’t tell someone you think their child has colic if you don’t know for sure. That is like a death sentence on a parent. Needless to say, he doesn’t have colic, but can have a temper and stomach problems. My mother in law bought me a good book which I have read from cover to cover…. “The Happiest Baby on the Block.” It discusses issues for calming fussy babies. Last night I came across this quote from the book which I thought was hilarious and right on the money. “Having a baby is like going to sleep in your own bed and waking up in Zimbabwe!” I LOVE IT!!!
