Yesterday was Lincoln's baby blessing. My kids were alternately thrilled and nervous to miss church and attend sacrament meeting in another ward. Justin and Trevor were brave enough to bear their testimonies in their ward, though. (Yay!) After sacrament meeting we went to Christine and Cody's house for lunch. I got to feed Lincoln his bottle. While I was burping him he spit up everywhere. And I do mean everywhere... my shoulder, down my back and ending on my bum. Plus it was all over the couch. One of Christine's sister-in-laws was kind enough to wipe me off. It was quite a way to break in my new dress.
Then last night at 2:30 a.m. I took Justin to his scout leader's house so they could head off to scout camp. He was nervous about it. He still has major anxiety when he isn't sleeping at home so I was proud of him for being brave about it. I was all set to leave, but then he asked me to stick around until they left. Several hugs, kisses and reassurances later he was all set to go. I had stuck a card with a note in his bag, that I had intended for him to find when he was at camp. However he found it before we even left the driveway so he was able to use that to look at too. I hope it helps him!
I was wide awake when I got home, and when I crawled into bed Kent's jerky movements made sure that I stayed awake. At 4:14 I'd had enough... so I got after him. And then he didn't move at all which made me mad, so I got after him again. What can I say? I'm not exactly rational that late at night. He was kind enough to offer to take Natalie to her 6 year well check appointment today so I could get some sleep.
This morning when I rolled out of bed at whatever o'clock, I found out that Drew had been sick on the floor in the family room. Yuck. He has a terrible headache too. I didn't even know 4 year olds could get headaches. He's sleeping soundly on the floor right now, but he's been sick since I came downstairs. Poor boy.
In the meantime I have several things to do before Natalie and I fly to NY in a few days, and with a day at home (forced though it may be) will allow me to get some of these things done. I just hope that my baby boy feels better soon.

My little Drew is feeling better. He slept a ton and has been fine for the last several hours. Good news. I'm making my yummy blueberry muffins- from scratch, of course! Drew really wants me to make chocolate chip cookies as I sent the last batch with Justin up to scout camp. Now because Drew slept so much today he's wide awake! He has no interest in sleeping right now. So we're watching the Phantom of the Opera: Behind the Mask. Phantom is one of my favorite shows EVER. I've seen it four times at Gammage. I'm hoping we'll see it again soon. But according to their website they aren't coming here anytime soon. Muffins are done. TTFN!
