The other day I had a chance to meet up with a friend from church and talk about some things going on in my life. It was nice to hear some different perspectives on things. There are some things going on that have been bugging me off and on for a while now. Every time I think things are getting better, something else happens. It is nice to talk to others and find out that they have similar experiences. Sometimes I feel alone in my thoughts and feelings about things. I try so hard to not let certain things bother me, especially when it happens over and over, but that isn't that easy. It was also nice to have a small break from the boys, I'm not gonna lie. Please, don't get me wrong, I love being home with them, but I need my breaks! I had some other deep thoughts that I was going to write about, but those thoughts have escaped! I think I will add in some pics and of the boys instead!
This little man has also stolen my heart! He is so much like his big brother. Their baby pictures are almost identical. We also noticed that Oliver has a dimple in the same place and same side as Jamie. He is such a good baby, I really can't complain. The first couple of weeks were a bit rough. Oliver has reflux and is now on medicine for it. That medicine works wonders and I love it! I feel so bad that such a little person has to go through that, but at least he is getting some relief. He has started to pack on the pounds now. He is up to 6 ounce bottles every few hours...and he is only 6 weeks old! He is wearing 3 month clothing, but the shirts and onsie type of shirts are getting a little snug. He has a long torso and long arms (just like his mommy and big brother). He is also starting to smile and that just melts my heart! He "talks" once and a while. He is making the motion with his mouth, I am just waiting for him to figure out that he can makes lots of noise. He is also getting pretty good and holding his head and looking around. Both my boys could hold their heads up the first day they were born. They weren't masters at it, but they were definately holding it pretty well.
What a size difference, huh?! Jamie loves being a big brother. He is so good with Oliver. He loves to help. He always needs to check on him also when he starts to cry. He will say to me, "Ollie, no happy." Jamie tried to share a pop tart with him this morning! Not sure he really understands when I tell him that Oliver can't eat that stuff yet.
He loves giving Oliver hugs!
Jamie also loves our dog, Charlie. Charlie is a big black lab (a little over 100 pounds) and he is the sweetest dog ever! We got him 5 years ago when he was just a small puppy....we apparently do everything big in our house! Anyway, he is such a good dog. He never barks in the house and doesn't even bark outside....only once in a great while will he bark outside. Jamie likes to say hi to him every morning and give him a hug. He even tries to move Charlie out of his way, but that never works! Charlie doesn't move! Hope you all enjoyed the pics. I will do a Halloween post soon....too many pictures to keep moving on here. Have a good night :)
