A Quick Update!

Normally, I would have had more pictures of our growing boy up, but do to a mistake made by me, the camera fell off the refridgerator and broke. I know, I know, what was it doing up there? Well, thats where I stick it because its the only place Taylor hasn't figured out how to climb up to yet. Not to worry, thanks to the help of Grandma, a replacement is on the way. Its a good thing hers is just lying around the house unused or we would have had to wait until Christmas for another one. We are all doing well, for the most part. Boston continues to grow except he hasn't pooped since last Monday. He has terrible gas and smells like an old man, but people keep telling me its normal for some newborns to go days between movements. I still worry and wonder if he will ever go, but at least he's still eating. If anybody has any suggestions or advise, I would gladly welcome it. Things are getting more routine for me, although breastfeeding is taking a toll and everytime he eats I cringe and feel like crying out in pain. This too shall also pass I'm told, but I don't remember it being so bad with Taylor. The things we do to provide the best for our children!! I'm thinking the reward in heaven will be HUGE for all us mothers! Taylor seems to have adjusted to life with Boston, she even behaved long enough for us to eat at Chilis as a family!! Monumental, if you ask me. We did use the help of the binki a time or two, but like Curt says, "sometimes you have to sacrifice in order to have a peaceful meal." Curtis is doing well, if you catch him on a good day! He often threatens to burn down his hotel because most of his employees lack common sense or any type of work ethic, but I'm there to remind him of the wonderful experience he is getting (and the fact that we will probably only be here until summer....we hope). We are however, getting used to life in Clovis and have made some friends in the ward. Curtis is serving as the assistant ward clerk and I am the activity days leader. Life is moving along quickly and I'm sure I'll look back someday and laugh about everything that is stressing me out now. I'll get more pictures up as soon as possible, but in the meantime, take my word on it...He's cute and gets cuter everyday!
