What's Da Buzz?

To those who know me personally, this entry will come as no surprise. The picture will tell nearly all of it in few words. The reason the posts have been few and far in between is courtesy of an addition tothe family as seen in the picture. We got a start being a family of 4 just before the new year. Courtesy of the new addition, we had to move in advance to a place to accommodate all of our needs.  My dear hubby bore the brunt of moving us twice in one year and racing to get it all unpacked and put away before the addition came. It has been quite taxing on him. As for me, the last trimester was far from enjoyable and has given me great pause to going for a third addition. You’ll just have to contact me directly for the details. Let’s just say sleep has been at an ultra premium for going on 4 months.

They say you’ll catch up on some sleep when your child starts sleeping through the night. It is said that happens around the 3rd month or so. What they don’t factor in is a few unusual things that make life ever so much more fun.

We have been graced with a wonderful gift of our child starting the teething process in the 5th week. There is next to nothing that helps. Teething rings are pointless. She can’t hold them or bite on it yet. Pain meds are a no go for under 4 months and we wouldn’t do it anyways. She spits out just about any other option. The only soothing effect is holding her. Since trabaho ko eh outside of home at si Goryo sa bahay mostly ang trabaho nya- he has to do everything else, that is a bit tough to accomplish.

So let me finish up the introduction of the picture. Below is what happens when you have an active child that teethes when they are 5 weeks old.  The food was ready at 7:30 PM. The picture was taken at 11 PM. When do we sleep? I get to sleep some at nights. When does Goryo sleep? As he says, he’ll sleep in September.

Yes, his food is almost always cold. Same thing with the dishwater by the time he can get to it long enough. Oh what fun this is.

We wouldn’t have it any other way.

Oh Life is Beautiful!

Live well and make it a great day!
