Just the Beginning

So, I'm new to this whole blogging thing. I'm not even really sure it's something I will enjoy doing or not.  I'm very good at starting things, and not continuing them, so we will see what happens....guess there is only one way to find out. Might as well start now while Calleigh is climbing all over Austin. That is her favorite thing to do. She CANNOT keep her hands off of him. Soon, he will be down there playing with her and Derek though. Derek is so excited for school to get out. I think there is only 18 days or something like that. We have big plans this summer to go visit Aunt Melissa for almost a week. She knows we are coming, but she doesn't know when. We are just going to surprise her!! Uncle Shawn knows, but he's super good at keeping secrets!! I must be crazy to drive 7 hours by myself with just 3 kids!! HA!!! Well, today is day 3 of not warming up Austin's milk. He is so super picky when it comes to taking his bottle. He wanted it super, super warm.  It would have to warm for about 15 minutes before he would even drink it. Then halfway through, we had to warm it again!! It is very hard to do when we are on the go. I bought one of those car bottle warmer things, but didn't really care for it. If he will just drink it room temp, that will make it much easier!! So far, he has been doing very well with it. Monday (the first day), he didn't hardly eat anything at all. Just cried & cried when I tried to feed him. But yesterday and today has been so much better! We are going to venture out again today. That's always interesting! Derek has a track meet in Chester at noon we are going to. Austin is completely off his oxygen now, but he still has an apnea monitor. It's alot of work getting Austin and Calleigh ready to go and out the door!! Hopefully next Tuesday will be the last day of the apnea monitor. Austin will finally be able to be able to be toted around with no tubes or wires. It will be the first time since he was born. We have been so blessed at how things with Austin have turned out. God was definitely watching over him and us!! We will so many stories to tell him when he grows up! Well if we are going to be anywhere close to being on time, I better start getting these 2 kiddos ready to go!!
