Life with Millie

9.23

After a NOT restful night I was feeling better. I put everything on hold and sat on the couch all day with my babies.

Raymond has had the hardest time adjusting to the new baby. He gets a little grumpy so I am trying to make sure and give him snuggle time. He has been Mr SLEEPer for the last month or two. By that I mean that he has been sleeping in until 9 or 10. Then he naps in the afternoon for at least 3 hours and sometimes more. I usually have to go in and wake him up. Then he goes to sleep around 9:00 when the other boys do. I just haven’t had a kid that sleeps this much but I am enjoying it while it lasts.

Life with Millie

9.22

Sunday morning! who is ready for some football? Raymond was so proud when I put his Packer’s clothes on. He hurried down stairs and yelled “Football” at Ben for 10 minutes. He is not a good talker but he really wanted Dad to see that he had his football clothes on 🙂 Then Rose needed her jersey of course. The 3 of us and Millie stayed home from church and away from all of the germs. I rested a little and cleaned A LOT – how do things get so messy so fast… and when does the magic toilet cleaning fairy ever come?? I know – Never – So I cleaned too much on Sunday and ended up getting sick that night. I was playing with the kids after dinner and then all of a sudden it was too much. I was achy and tired and realized that I had MASTITIS! Boo! I went to bed. Took the baby with me and let Ben handle the rest of the chaos.

FOOTBALL!

Soccer Saturdays are in full swing. Packer and Cali both had 9am games so… Ben had to go coach Packer’s team and I got to take the other 5 kids to Cali’s game 🙂 Luckily Mia and Cali are on the same team and LUCKIER, Michelle insists on helping me with the kids. I am happy that she insists and the help is much needed. We all went to Benji’s game later and then napped and watched some bad football.

this girl LOVES the pacifier

Millie loves the pacifier. She came out of the womb sucking and hasn’t really stopped. If she is awake she is usually looking for the paci. The kids love it because they LOVE to be the one to give her the Paci and “help” her. The husband also loves it because it calms her down and allows him to be helpful. I like it but it is hard to tell when when actually wants to eat.
