I'm sorry to all of you that actually read this blog for falling behind. I usually just make sure to write when I have pictures to add, but now that Collin will actually sit in his swing and entertain himself for all of about 2 minutes I might be able to write a little more often.

Today was a little bit of a difficult day. Well actually... I should say it started out pretty good! He slept for almost 8 full hours last night! Of course only him and Pat got to enjoy it since I woke up every 20 minutes thinking he was going to wake up soon, and then when he didn't wake up make sure he was OK and still breathing. And then after moving him because he kept sliding down in the bassinet staying awake for another 10 minutes thinking "Ok..now he's definitely going to wake up." So the whole family got good sleep except me.... I guess that's the way it goes :(

Well after he finally woke up around 7am I fed him and he stayed awake for a little while and then fell back asleep... so naturally I started to worry thinking something was wrong. Let me tell you.... parenting = worrying!!!!! And worrying = stress!!!!!! And he's only 2 months old!!!!!! Now I know why people say this is the hardest job ever!!!!

Anyways, he's been napping on and off all day and being pretty fussy. I don't know if it is a late reaction to the immunizations or if he is getting sick. I hope it'll pass tomorrow.

Pat and I had to go to baptism preparation classes this afternoon. So boring. Pat kept telling me to pay attention because I was trying to text anyone that would talk to me because I was so bored. We had to sit there for 2 1/2 hours. And to top it off, the air wasn't working in there for the first hour so it was like 95 degrees in there. I'm fine with sitting there listening, but I hate audience and group participation so much. We all (like 50 people!!) had to go around the room and introduce ourselves and say how we got our name. How on earth is that relevant to a baptism class??? Way to add a 1/2 hour to the class for no reason at all.

Well that was about it for today. Nothing else to report.... Ohh! except that we tried the next size (2) of diapers on Collin and unsurprisingly they fit him pretty well.

Ok well goodbye for now friends! :)
