No Fun Monday

This morning, we were all very tired.  You both woke up very early and the rainy stormy weather only made us all even more sleepy.  Mommy got you both, and your fuzzy brother's, fed and diapers changed, and then Daddy took over (well attempted to take over).  Daddy's neck, back, ears, and teeth have really been bothering him.  Daddy's falling apart!  Mommy had a busy morning trying to get everything done before my work week starts.  Mommy had to activate our new debit cards, take the remainder of clothes to yet another consignment shop, use our baby food coupons before they expired, get gas (only after I bought baby food and accumulated enough points to get 10 cents off per gallon of gas), pay off our Lowes card (since Mommy has vowed never to have another charge card but I gave in thinking it would be an easy way to build up some good credit), and mail some items.  So, Mommy was hurrying to get this all done before your, Jude Liam's, scheduled doctor's appointment.  Also, I knew Daddy was struggling to keep up with you two.  

Bodhi, the thunder had you scared and you didn't want to take a nap.  Daddy decided to take a nap with you in your room on your big girl bed.  It surprised Mommy that you actually slept with Daddy, you haven't wanted to sleep with us since you were Jude's age!  Jude, Mommy put you down early because you were acting so tired, but you didn't stay down long at all.  Both you and your sister took a very short nap today. 

This evening, Mommy and Daddy took you both to Jude's ear specialist appointment.  We were there for 3 1/2 hours!!!!  Daddy was there for an hour before he had to go to work.  GiGi showed up and took you, Bodhi, outside to walk around and wait for Jude and I to finish.  It was horrible.  You both did very well, but even Mommy was growing frustrated with waiting.  Jude, you are getting tubes July 25th!  Daddy has a lot of anxiety about you getting tubes.  Mommy however, suffered from chronic ear infections as a child, and is relieved they putting tubes in your ears at such a young age.   I don't want you to suffer a minute more.  However, you have to suffer until July 25th!!! :(   

After we returned home, Grandpa Kurt showed up.  Mommy gave him his Father's Day card and he visited with you both while Mommy fed you dinner, got you dressed for bed, and played with you for a while.  Juders, you went right to sleep.  Fifteen minutes of nursing, well five minutes of nursing and ten of which Mommy was dosing off, and you were out!  Bodhi, you were wanting to go to bed early tonight, well, that is until it was time for you to go to bed, then you didn't want to go down.  You fussed for a few minutes and then fell asleep. 

Tomorrow, you both are going to Aunt Ti's, Mommy and Daddy are going to work, and then in the evening, I think Sister Kelly is going to watch you both while Mommy attends a town hall meeting to support our neighbor.  Our neighbor, Vincent, had a house fire and his  house burnt down (I've previously posted pictures of the house after the fire and the building of the new house).  Well, building has stopped because the builder obtained the wrong building permit (a remodel rather than a rebuild).  Our other neighbor Pete, doesn't want Vincent to rebuild his home, so he registered a complaint knowing that the builder obtained the wrong permit and they'd have to cease building.  Now Vincent may lose his home and the builder my lose his business.  Mommy is going to speak in front of the town board.  Mommy hates public speaking so much!!!  Daddy is a talented public speaker, but he has to work :(  So, now it's up to Mommy.  Mommy may pee herself, puke everywhere, and pass out, but Mommy will do it because it's the right thing to do! 

"Come on, we've been at the doctor for 3 1/2 hours Momma!"

Really Bodhi???

Mr. Murff :)  Mommy's 1st born baby boy!
Bodhi, you act just like Mr. Murff, it freaks Mommy and Grandmoo out hee/hee  I always said I'd name my first born, Murphy.  I didn't think Mommy and Daddy were going to be able to have kids, so Mr. Murff, obviously, took the name.  Grandmoo says you, Bodhi, you should have been named Murphy, and Mommy agrees :)

Mr. Arlo
Jude, you act just like Mr. Arlo, but unlike Mr. Arlo, you are always happy.  He is a brute, strong willed, and strong physically!  He will cannot be ignored and is usually laid back and easy going. 

You both have a similar relationship as your fuzzy brothers... however, you both are definitely growing closer together and are bonding much more these days :)
