Life is just rolling along here. We are experiencing new "firsts" every day, from the first face-exploding smile to the first audible giggle, to the first time he noticed that when he looks back his toes are still there....
I wish I could give big words of wisdom about managing this multi-generational household, but the truth of the matter is that I feel like every day is still a new adventure, and the only thing I have learned for sure in the last few months is that I do not think that the word "settled" is ever going to come into my vocabulary again....Establishing a "new normal" is not going to be easy, or simple, or a quick process. And, given the current state of my senior in high school, I am not sure that any "new normal" is going to last very long.....breathe in....breathe out.....breathe in.....repeat.....
Baby Brady is a hearty young lad. He is weighing in at a healthy 13 lbs. He now weighs about 4 lbs less that his Momma did at 28 months when she came to me from Russia....yes, she was malnourished, but none-the-less, at this rate, he will pass her up at about age 4 .....
Mommy is back to working at least four days per week, fast pitch playing, volleyball playing, and hanging with friends, with a delicate juggling of motherhood put in for flavor. She is very responsible and doing an excellent job of being there and adjusting to the situation.
Again, I just don't know what we did without him...and speaking of him, I gotta sign off. He is hungry....go figure.
