Awwww, today was a Mommy wellness day... well, for the most part! This morning Daddy spent time with the two of you, playing and watching cartoons. Mommy made you both breakfast, helped change diapers, and put your clothes away, but it was Daddy who was with the two of you the majority of the time. This afternoon, Mommy had a hair appointment with Chantal, Daddy has a funny name for her but for some reason neither of us can remember it...something along the lines of being Mommy's mental and hair therapist. Mommy hadn't had her hair done in about a year. I was trying to hold off until I lost 30 pounds, but I received a coupon in the mail that I just couldn't pass up :) Mommy always feels better after meeting with Chantal. She always has great information about health and child rearing, and she always makes Mommy's hair beautiful! Chantal also provided Mommy with some information that might help Grandmoo and her health issues (which is very exciting because Grandmoo is suffering from very poor health). Chantal also told Mommy that a lady at Sunspot, a natural food market or herbal shop, told her that everyone was complaining about their children not sleeping, and she attributed it to our most recent moon...recently it has been closer to the earth than is usual and apparently this only occurs every 20 years. So, there you have it, mystery solved! You two aren't sleeping because of the moon. Mommy's menstrual cycle was always in line with the full moons, so this is no surprise to Mommy (too much information for you, Jude, I know) hee/hee. Since, Mommy is nursing she's only had one menstrual cycle in the last six months (THANK YOU JUDE!). Mommy has a horrible time with it, I'm so sorry Bodhi!
Bodhi, while Mommy was getting her hair "did" as Mommy's friends say, you were at your GiGi's. Jude, you were supposed to go to GiGi's today and you, Bodhi, were supposed to go tomorrow. However, you, Bodhi, wouldn't take a nap so Mommy took you instead. You were super excited and GiGi said you were in a great mood despite not having a nap and waking up yet again the night before. Mommy has come to the conclusion that either GiGi could never think you are in a bad mood, or you are absolutely positively spoiled beyond comprehension, because you are rarely in a good mood for Mommy :( Mommy is certain that this is a phase and it will eventually pass :) Jude, you stayed home with your Daddy. You were so happy to see Mommy when I returned home! You were holding out your arms for me, this just melts Mommy's heart. Sean Franky was here visiting you when Mommy arrived back home with Bodhi. Bodhi, you were super excited to see Sean Franky too. You love how he throws you around and takes you to pet Mr. Arlo.
After arriving home we all went to dinner. For the past week, Mr. Murff and Mr. Arlo have been on an all hamburger diet, as the vet recommended, in order to cleanse their system and get some weight off of them. For the last two days, they've had diarrhea. Mommy has been going out of her mind cleaning fuzzy butts because Mr. Murff and Mr. Arlo can't clean themselves. Mommy called the vet today to find out what to do, and the vet said they needed to fast for two days and then they could have yogurt or organic vegetable broth. This is not going well. They are so pathetic and so hungry. It's absolutely breaking Mommy's heart. Mommy told Daddy that we were going out to eat because Mommy couldn't bear cooking and eating in front of them. They would both just go crazy. We all went to Grindstone Charley's to eat dinner (Mommy had a coupon hee/hee). Bodhi and Jude, Momma is so very proud of the two of you. Bodhi, you were an angel (this is an awesome turn around from our most recent past dinning experiences)! Jude, you sat in a highchair for the first time (in a restaurant anyway). You sat there like a big boy, playing with your toys, and looking around flirting with everyone. Jude, you tried a new flavor of organic baby food tonight... it was a banana, raspberry, and peach mixture. You of course loved it :) Bodhi, Mommy ordered you grilled chicken tenders and steamed vegetables, but they messed your order up and brought you french fries... so when they brought you your vegetables, you were more interested in the french fries :( You did eat your carrots though... you love your fruits and vegetables.
After dinner, you both struggled to get to sleep. Bodhi, we put you in your crib only to get you back up again because you were screaming. We eventually got you to sleep but you cried for about five minutes before falling asleep :( Jude, it took you longer to fall asleep nursing tonight. My Bodhi and Buddha, please have sweet dreams and don't let the bed bugs bite xoxoxoxxo
