Sunday night

Things are good here. I am sitting here typing this with Meg in my lap and LAV on my feet. John is splashing with Cade in the bathtub, he is such a water monkey. 

We have a four day weekend this time. Friday and yesterday we went to Dothan. Starting to look at things we need for the next baby. We are having to sell strollers so we can get a new double one. We thought about keeping our singles, but Cade is still to young to trust that he wont run off. I have decided on the nursery theme if it is a girl. If it is a boy there are a few that I have in mind. It is exciting to think about things like that again. We don''t know much for the new baby, but a few things we cant reuse from Cade. We have moved John's desk out of his room and into the office and we sold the antique quilt rack and old travel high chair (which really was the size of a real high chair). I also have our old old dinning room table on craigslist as well and will be posting our strollers on there once we get the cleaned. I forgot that I also sold our coffee table as well. All this past week! Now I am on a hunt to find other things to sell. 

John should start Areo Med Tuesday. But he wasn't able to get his full UPS slip so we aren't quite sure how that is going to play. But he is still determined that he is starting.

food is the worst enemy

So for the past week or so Cade has become increasingly hard to feed. He no longer wants to eat baby food, even turns his nose up to his favorites. So we are once again on the look for something he can feed himself. He likes cheese again, which is a plus. So tonight we tried yogurt which he loved, we tried chicken sticks (gerber kinds) hated them, noodles again and hate them, but he liked poppyseed dressing, but only if i poured it down his throat. AHH he is so picky, I just don't know what else to feed the boy. Of course he likes chips and junk food, but I cant feed him a diet of that. So I am struggling again. John is even getting irritated with him because of the situation. 

Otherwise we are doing fine. I listed a few items on craigslist today to try to get rid of. I got 7 emails on our old coffee table and sold it! I also got one email on each additional item I posted. It's just crazy. I only posted them this morning at 10 or so. Now I keep looking for more things to post! 

This week has been long and stressful but also very productive. John has been "working" with Lyster to get his full UPS slip to allow him into AreoMed. He says he is going no matter what. But it all comes down to a Major up there that is keeping an eye on John and his case. We have a DONSA day tomorrow and Monday and class starts Tuesday. So we are hoping things get taken care of tomorrow. We were worried that since tomorrow was a DONSA day that John was just out of luck, but the lady from Lyster called and said that they would call him tomorrow, so luckily they are open. 

I am still trying to decide on what picture to submit to the contest. It will be the only time I can enter Cade. He was to young last year and will be to old next year. But next year I can enter the new baby, so let us hope that it is as cute as Cade.
