Things I'm looking forward to this month.
1. Tomorrow we will head to the annual "Barktoberfest." This is a tradition Peter and I started the year before we got married. We haven't missed one yet! It's very exciting this year because we get to take Charlie and Titus! We enjoy laughing at all the dog costumes and crazy owners, and Charlie has fun running around and sniffing butts.
2. Pumkin Spice Lattes...I've already had one. Unfortunately, I had to get it decaf with soy milk. Not near as good. Next time, I'm just going to go all the way and hope for the best with Titus. I still haven't delved into the realm of lactose lately. :)
3. Our trip to Abilene! We haven't been since May! That's way to long if you ask me. Also, it will be Titus' first road trip. I'm sure my mom will whisk him away and introduce him to all of her friends.
4. COOL WEATHER! It was freezing this morning. We had the air conditioner on 72 and I was frozen. I love not having to turn the ac on at all.
5. Pumpkin Patch! Can't wait to actually go this year. We've never gone before, but now we have an excuse to go with T here. We'll take the dumb "pumpkin" pics and send them out to everyone. :)
6. Titus is 6 weeks on Monday! I guess I shouldn't look forward to this, but he is getting so fun! And, this means I'm released from post partum care...whatever that means. Running....and getting rid of this extra baby pounds. I did gain 44. :) I only have 12 left...but I'm going to go further considering I wasn't happy with where I started. TMI for some of you bloggers. Sorry.
7. Decorating for fall. Unfortunatley, I have no decorations. I have some spending money, but don't get it until the end of the month. Dang.
8. FALL TELEVISION! I tape all the shows in the evening, because Peter and I hate getting into ruts and plopping in front of the television. So, spread them out during the next day. It's glorious.
THINGS I'm NOT LOOKING FORWARD TOO:
1. Paying medical bills.
2. Paying off the credit card we just put our cooktop, broken refridgerator repairs, and a new transmission. blah blah blah.
3. H1N1 and FLU scares. ughghghg, this sends me over the edge! I get so nervous about taking Titus anywhere! I can protect him, but not me!! I'm scared of those shots too.
Well, that's it. :)
Things are good on the homefront. I got a little infection this week. Mastitis. Bleh. Luckily, it wasn't too bad. I did have a fever and felt flu like for 2 days. But, I got antibiotics and things are looking up! Titus has slowed down his eating a ton, which caused some problems with my body...if you know what I mean.
We took Titus to a wedding on Sunday. He did wonderful! Praise the Lord. I can't wait to go back to church, but I refuse to put him in the nursery. Warrented because the church just sent out an EMAIL about the flu and protecting your children at church. Luckily my mom will be here this weekend and he can stay home. :) Will he ever get to come to church! The kid makes way to many grunting/farting noises to bring him into worship. :) I'd be embarrassed.

so when is the Abilene visit??? or has it already been? I'm soooo behind in blogging and in fbing, so you probably have it on one or the other, but we'd love to see you guys any time! Can't wait to meet the newest Abrigg!
we took sydney to church the sunday after she was born, and austin too... we just keep them with us in big-church and sunday school. and sit in the back in case of MELTDOWN, which we have never had (knock on wood). and nobody seems to mind baby grunts, farts, burps... we just get lots of smiles!
He's precious! I have trick to let you in on about getting mastitis...as soon as you feel a clogged duct forming, take Triple Lecithin. You can get it at GNC or Whole Foods. The LC's in MN told me about it when Luke was first born and it is a MIRACLE. I don't know why more people don't know about it. It's a fat emulsifier that is in most foods and it unclogs the ducts before they can turn into mastitis! Have it on hand, girl, b/c it'll clear it up in one day! Promise, Thomas!
Glad it's going well...hold him and love this stage while you can...before you know it he'll be talking back and running away from you and you'll wonder, 'where did my sweet baby go?'...
See you in March...we are staying away from church, too! :)
You don't need any excuses to keep him out of the church nursery - he is still a newborn!
i think all the "TMI's" are what make your blogs so fun to read :)
Love it!!! Love the pics! Love him! Love you! Can't wait to cuddle with him very soon!
I am so out of the post-prego- jargon-loop. I have no idea what Mastitis is, and i am scared to google it at work and have a big boob come up on my screen. and i dont know why Titus slowing down on eating would cause body problems, but I assume it's not fun. :)
Bless all preggo women's hearts.
CUTE PICS!!! ;)
i need to come see Titus. the end.
