It was my intention to write on here everyday but that hasn't happened! I will try to update this as to what's been going on the last couple of weeks...... well..I have been at the apartment since I last wrote on here and have been doing relatively well.
The 1 night on 1 night off thing hasn't quite happened...I don't know if Eric is just having a hard time adjusting to an infant or if he's just trying to be nice by letting me have Cooper more than my 1 night? He says it's because it's my maternity leave and he wants me to spend as much time with him that I can, but I don't know really. I've been having McKenzie more too...last week I had her from Wednesday to Sunday and it looks like that's how it will be this week too. I want to spend more time with her too..but she's been a little pain in the butt! I don't know what the deal is, but she's been doing it for her dad too, so that makes me feel not as bad. It's like it's totally back to the way it was between the two of us before. I don't know if it's a mother/daughter thing or what...but I don't remember being like this towards my mom. I know that I back talked to her..but I'm pretty sure that I was a teenager!
McKenzie is officially done with softball. We had her end of year tournament on Saturday and we lost in the 1st round (which the girls were totally fine with..I think they were beyond burnt out!).
We had McKenzie's 8
th birthday party @ Godfathers on Sunday and there ended up being so many people! We took up the whole top row of the restaurant! Crazy....afterall...we didn't think that there would be that many people there at all and then there was at least 30+ people. She had a blast!
Since I was heading into
Silverdale for my 6 week post
partum check up, I stopped in at my work to show off Cooper one last time before I go back. the girls were amazed at how big he was getting! The ones that hadn't seen him thought he was so cute...which I do have to agree!
I'm so glad that McKenzie hasn't really shown any real sort of jealousy at all towards him. She just loves him and wants to help with everything! Almost too helpful! She definately loves her little brother...hopefully it stays that way!
Today is sort of a sad day for me as it would have been mine and Eric's 9 year wedding anniversary today. I can't believe it! It seems like it was yesterday that we were headed to Idaho with no plan except to get married that weekend! Wish I could go back and change things..but I guess it doesn't work that way! I'm just greatful for what I got...he's given me 2 lovely children who I love more than anything in this world! Wish things would've worked out better,but this is life and mine is kind of crazy..but wonderful all at the same time!
Eric came and got the kiddos today at noon to take them out to his dad's for Fathers Day. McKenzie and I were busy yesterday getting Eric's gifts done and he ended up getting his new chair yesterday (since he came over for something else). We gave him the rest of his gifts today when he got here. I created a 5x7 card that I put in a frame with pictures of him and the kids, got him a DAD photo holder (and printed some pics of him and the kids to go on it), and we made him a candy bouquet (which he totally loved and was so easy to make!)
