Fall Has Arrived...

Yep...I am posting on my netbook and I really do love it!
I woke up this morning to a 61 degree house and I really cannot believe it. It actually is depressing. We have a EdenPURE space heater that we have been using to take the chill off downstairs but this morning the furnace had to be turned on as well and it was pretty sad. Andy was texting me and telling me not to do it but there is no way Im going to make my babies freeze!!

Brody is getting around everywhere and pretty fast I might add for not crawling the real way yet. He is so close but just not quite there yet. To be honest, Im not ready for him to crawl. My house is NOT baby proofed. Hudson is really helping me out in that sense because he is always watching out for Brody and what he had and what he is putting in his mouth. The other day brody had a small motorcycle helmet in his head and Hudson told Andy right away! That could have been bad!

I am really struggling with the fact that I dont feel like i can let Brody cry it out. His cry is sooo loud that Im sure Hudson would wake up. Not to mention the fact that we have hardwood floors and everything echos! Brody is at the point where he needs to cry it out. Maybe it will take Hudson waking up for a few nights just until Brody learns. Ugh...I keep putting it off but I do want good sleepers.

Cheerleading is keeping me busy so I rarely have a moment to post but hopefully now that I have this handy little thing, you will see me posting more often. :0)

Is that heater like that Amish mantle fireplaces that people rave about? We just ordered one and it should be here next week. I hope that it helps us keep our heating costs down!

It hardly seems possible that Brody is mobile now. It seems like just yesterday that you sent me that picture of him the hospital. Where in the world does the time go???

Good luck with Brody's sleeping issues. I, for one, think that a few night's worth of sacrifice is definitely worth it. You saw the results with Hudson so just look back and remember that. You guys can do this. I know it!!

The heater is not the amish thing but I have seen those. This is just like the heater you see for sale in the newspapers and magazines. It works great! In the winter we actually heat our upstairs with it instead of turning on that zone.

I know...Brody is getting very big so fast. You almost forget how fast that it happens but I really love this age! I think Im going to have to sacrifice a few nights and give it a go :0) Ill keep you updated!
