Well, it's been a while since my last post. Things have been kind of hectic around our house. With Christmas coming and planning for Jacob's 4th birthday party in full swing, there's really very little time for "extras", like blogging. Jacob has been going through a "phase" (or at least I hope that's what it is). And for the record, I'm not a fan of the 3's (age)!! In fact, Kyle and I were saying "what's up with the "terrible two's"? 3 is WAY worse!!".
Jacob is going through a "scared" phase. He absolutely FREAKS out if he is alone. Before, I could put him on the couch with the tv on while I got ready for work. Now, if I tell him I'm going to get ready, he says "OK", then 2 seconds later when I leave the room, he freaks out saying, "I was lost". Poor guy. I hope it's a short phase. Oh, and bedtime. He is afraid, so we constantly catch him opening his door and peeking out to see where we are. And he's getting up 1-4 times per night to come get me.
Jordyn still isn't sleeping well, and now w/ Jacob not sleeping well, it's exhausting. I'm very grateful to my mom who is helping me tremendously! Jordyn is just about to turn 7 months old. She is still not crawling. And she's still not interested in eating, just nursing. She seems to be on track with her weight, so I'm not worried. She'll eat when she's ready. She is wearing mostly 9 month clothes and size 3 diapers.
We're in the process of making decisions about health insurance. I'm very blessed to have options. At work, we have about 8 health insurances companies, 6 dental/vision insurances companies and a flex spending acct to choose from. While the variety is fantastic, it makes my decision making VERY hard. Every year they change and it's so hard to know which is the best one to take. I actually sat down and compiled numbers today. One is higher in premiums but lower in meds....etc. Anyway, looks like we'll be switching yet again.
Anyway, that's what's going on in our world.
Here's a few current pics....
