Current mood: exhausted
Happy Friday Everyone! Wow another eventful week we had! Mia is officially 120 weeks old! That seems like so much compared to her baby brother who will only be 3 weeks tomorrow! haha
This week has been pretty decent though. A bit rough at first since I wasn't getting enough rest and was soon becoming edgy but my Dad came down to the rescue and I have since gotten a tiny bit more rest. Hey a tiny bit goes a looooooong way!! haha
One thing we have noticed this week is, although Mia is adjusting to Alex extremely well... she is having issues with Adrian holding him. She REFUSES to allow that to happen and often times screams and cries if he picks him up. She only wants me to hold the baby and for Adrian to hold her. I know its a jealousy thing, I just hope she gets over it soon. She also does this with my Dad as well, however, yesterday was the first day she seemed to allow it... for a little bit.
Speaking of my Dad, he is here for a few days helping out while we get adjusted to Alex and so I can get some rest. Needless to say Mia is on cloud nine! She has been going EVERYWHERE with her Grandpa, to the store (where she got a free cookie from the bakery because the clerk thought she was so cute), the park, and right now shes at the post office! haha She is having a great time with her Grandpa.
Daddy took Mia to the pumpkin patch (with the jumper) earlier this week too and shocked us all by going on the giant inflatable slide they had!! She taught herself how to climb the steps and slide down at least 15 times!!! I am so proud of my little dare devil!
We also had a family outing, our very first! and it was to the mall to get the kids pictures taken in their Halloween costumes! Man that was a fun semi-disaster but at least we got a few really good pictures of them. Not sure if we will do it again but I am glad we at least did it once! haha Mia loved the mall, especially Sears where they had all their Christmas stuff out already. She loves Christmas trees and got so angry when we had to leave.
We went to the pumpkin patch this week too! I LOVE pumpkins so the pumpkin patch is always extra fun for me. I wasn't to comfortable with taking Alex out but since the weather was a warm I made an exception. Mia, who needed a nap BAD, was alittle fussy at first but soon was having fun with her Grandpa, throwing straw in her hair, running up and down slopes, and tossing pumpkins everywhere.
Thats about it so far, I know I will have more stories to share, especially this weekend since it is Halloween!! YAY!
