Ben and LaLa Arrive

Ben and Leah got in late Wednesday night (yes Mr. Pig likes to greet us all)! It is so fun to have them down here I just hope that the "Jack Attacks" don't ruin their vaca. Dad got down here to but he headed up to Orlando again to be with his family for a couple of days. Mike finally gets down here tonight and will be here for 10 days! Can't wait! It will be nice to have everyone together since we missed out on our annual Christmas trip this year.
Jack has been adjusting pretty well to the Florida life. We walk, we nap, we walk, we play, we nap, we usually cry about his time, and then we go to bed.


Things for the most part are getting much better with his colicky attacks. HOWEVER, tonight when everyone was at the Club enjoying cocktails and apps Jack was giving me a run for my money! I texted Mike that Jack was going to be an only child. It is so hard when he is inconsolable, I know that this is what I signed up for but it is a challenge. I was singing to him, rocking him, trying to feed him, doing airplane with him, and numerous times he just starred in my eyes and screamed at me. Who knows why. I think it is a mix of the colic, growing, teething (because he drools a ton), and maybe he is getting my cold (pray he isn't). My Mom then came home and took over for me. She finally got him to calm down and go to sleep. Thank you Mom for letting me have a peaceful dinner! Ah she is an angel! Of course he was extra cute at night and early this morning so I can't stay frustrated he is to darn sweet and I just love him too much! Mom says God is building up my patience.
Today we are going to try and get some birthday shopping for Ben done! Wish us luck!
