So yesterday I watched my youngest nephew Luke! He is such a doll and it helped me have a little mommy practice for when Landon arrives. My sister warned me that she had bought some new diapers and was trying them out and noticed that they weren't as good and needed to be changed about every two hours. So shortly after I got Luke I changed him. I made him apple juice and made sure he always had something to drink if he needed it. He must drink more liquids than me!!!! Guzzle, guzzle, guzzle....what a thirsty little boy! We took a long walk (or maybe I said I walked pushing his stroller) and went over to the park. He just loved me pushing him in the baby swing and would laugh and laugh. It was so cute! I got myself and him up the play toy stairs and we went down the winding slide...then after a while we went home. After about 2 hours I knew I needed to change his diaper...plus he had been drinking a lot of juice...I was like "I need to change your diapy" but we decided to go outside on the swing in the backyard together first. That was a mistake! His diaper leaked through on my lap and so we immediately went in the house and got it changed! I clipped his dirty long nails for him and he loved the gummy bears he got for letting me clip them... He was such a good boy!
After I got home from watching Luke at my parents house I waited for Daniel to get home. I had just gone to the store and bought a few things and we were going to have salad and pizza for dinner. Daniel and I sat down and had some carrots and chips with dip. I didn't have a ton of chips with dip...but I felt later that it was a dumb thing to have done because by the time we were eating dinner the food did not look good or appetizing. I didnt want to eat with how I felt. I probably ate a couple bites of my salad and then one bite of pizza which, I think, was a little disappointing to Daniel.
I earlier had learned that my cousin Jake and his wife Jenn were in the process of labor. Their baby's sex was going to be a surprise and no one knew what it was, so as I was getting ready for bed I prayed that they would have a little boy so Landon could be good friends with him.
This morning after I woke up I checked my email and learned that late last night they had their baby and it was a boy!!! That was so exciting...I am so glad that Landon will be able to know and have a 2nd cousin that is only about 5 months older than him! What a blessing!
