*phew* ETA hahahahahaha *dephomo

we got our backpay for beau’s government money. *phew* with dennis off (not by choice) from the 24th til the 4th, we needed the $623. now let’s hope for the bonus from his boss. *hopes hopes hopes* he cashed in some vacation pay as well so we should be good to go.

beau was an ANGEL all weekend. my goodness, i was feeling giddy by the end of saturday, it was so nice. hopefully this continues. he goes longer here and there between feedings, has barely had screaming fits, and is laughing and understanding his world more and more now (that’s probably why he’s doing better.) he and i had a lovely time at the pool on saturday while dennis and sawyer swam (apparently sawyer has grown at least a head in the past 6 months or so b/c he can stand in the "little pool"); beau nursed, then played with his little toy horse for quite a while, whimpered a little so i covered him up in the buggy and walked a bit. he went to sleep and when dennis went to strap him into his car seat, he woke up, smiled, and went back to sleep.

yesterday, he ate before we left for our family thing, didn’t wake up for hours and hours, woke up happy, and after having waited about 5 hours, he nursed very quickly in the Chief’s office (it was at a fire hall) and went back to smiling for people. sawyer came and got dennis every time he had to pee while we were at the family thing, except the one time he was in the girls room with his cousin peeing. she stood by while he did his thing. LOL

today, sawyer has peed on the potty (no pooping in the potty though) a couple times, beau has nursed, they watched sesame street together, beau fussed a bit and then went to sleep, and now is awake playing.

what happened to our children and can we keep these ones?!
