A View From Our Life

So Cara is right. It's totally y'all and not ya'll. Thanks for the heads up, Cara!!

We lost our power tonight for about three hours and it just turned on again, praise the Lord! We are supplementing Brennan with some formula and it was hard to make a bottle via candlelight.

I've been busy today planning my grocery shopping to Kroger (I got some killer deals, finally!) and baking/pureeing pumpkins and squash. The squash is baby food for Brennan but I'm using the pumpkin to make pumpkin chocolate chip muffins and pumpkin bread (and probably will use some for B's baby food). I love making my own baby food- it feels like I am actually accomplishing something in my day.

Speaking of Brennan, he's really seemed to have turned a corner the last week, week and a half. He's been playing more independently and seems more content. Granted, he's usually either trying to eat his plants, suck on the toilet rim, or play with the computer cords, but at least he's happy! I had a lot of people tell me that your life REALLY changes once the child becomes mobile. I've said it once, I'll say it again, I'll take a happy mobile baby over a whiney stationary baby ANY day.

Ok, I'm a needing to wrap this blog up. Y'all come back now, ya hear?
