It's been awhile

So my last post was all about the snow storm and the accumulation that I couldn't believe. Since then life has been nuts!!!

Gavin's little system doesn't seem to like anything we feed him. I switched him to Soy on Friday. All last week everytime we fed him he acted like we were feeding him poison. Then about an hour after he was fed he would cry inconsolably, after awhile he would pass gas and if you took a breath it would knock you out. So I knew something was not right, but didn't want to keep switching him (this is formula #3). Since I have switched him, he still has gas but you don't need a gas mask when he finally farts!

He is still quite fussy, but it's not as bad as it was. I was lulled into a false sense of security after four days after the last change and bought a case of the lower iron (which I thought was his problem), and am now stuck with that. I will keep up with this for a few more days before I make that committment again.

Last week I also was doing some work from home. I know that I'm on mat leave, but there are certain jobs I'm continuing. Now I don't get paid for this work, but I do get to bank time for when I go back. I could say no or have somebody else do it, but honestly it keeps me sane!!! Also, when you go to a client's to pick up their quarterly books and they hand you a gift for your kids, well, you tend to want to make sure they are taken care of.

Yesterday was the first of two showers for the boys. My mom hosted the one yesterday and I couldn't believe the people that were there. Some people I haven't seen in FOREVER and others I just saw. About 80% of the gifts were clothes, some were size 3 and I'm not talking months!!! My friend Gord and his wife gave us a prepackaged tower of diapers, that was wrapped with receiving blankets and bibs. There has to be over 100 diapers in this thing. Best part they are a size 3 (not years), so they will come in handy in the next couple of months.

My work shower is next week and that should be fun as well. I have taken the boys to the office twice now and I don't think everybody has met them. Then again my firm is on three different floors in the building now (yes Angella....THREE!!!).

Today was spent sorting the stuff from yesterday, washing new bedding and comforting my first born. I still have some work to do, but it will probably have to wait until Glenn gets home as I hear some stirring from the corner of the living room.

Oh by the way, the Noon news informed me that there is ANOTHER snow fall warning in effect for this evening....another 2 inches at least! No comments from the peanut gallery Karin!
