much babyness* and more*

jace’s appointment went well. of course, he refused to perform like a little monkey when the doc asked about naming body parts and all. the doc wasn’t concerned that he doesn’t speak yet, but he needs to start learning more or he might have to do the intervention thing (cuz, he has this really bad drinking problem.. okay, bad joke.)

he is a little behind on weight, right on target for height, and his head is still gigantic. 98%. no shots either! woo hoo!

jeff’s stupid boss decided that jeff has to work tonight, and i’m so ticked off about that. i wish jeff could find another job, because while this one supports us all right, it’s so bad for him. he’s completely dead ended and his boss is a lunatic.

we are going up to my grandparents for a baby shower for my cousin. she had her baby on.. thursday?.. and i was hoping we wouldn’t be rushed to get back here so jeff could go to work.. not to mention it completely ruins going to church tomorrow when he works saturday night..

anyway. i got my cousin a scout doll, because jace loved to listen to his when he was little, and this really cute collared onesie and sweater vest, and a pack of diapers. diapers were my favorite shower gift. i didn’t have to buy jace diapers for a looooong time. in fact, i don’t think i’ve ever personally bought him more than a box or two myself.

** i forgot to say, not very babyness related, i think i have heart palpitations. i was trying to go to sleep last night when i started to get these fluttery feelings in my chest, and then it was like my heart was pounding, i could feel it in my throat, and then i was really short of breath. LAME! ugh. one more thing, right?

*** i also forgot to mention why i was writing about my cousin’s baby in the first place.. i’m so jealous. everyone’s talking about how cute he is (and he is reeeeally adorable, that doesn’t help matters) and i’m remembering when i was in the spotlight with jace, and how snuggly and small he was.. i guess i’m jealous that i don’t have a newborn!
