Party of 5

We went Saturday to Georgia to pick up Alex's daughter (also named Kaitlynn, but we call her Katie).  Mom went with us, and we met up with Alex's exwife's new husband, Katie and their baby daughter at our regular spot.  It was, dare I say it, *nice* without his ex there (hell, even her husband agreed).  She makes it so tense...awkward.  We were all chatting like regular folks, goofing with the kids, then off our seperate ways...alot nicer then our other pickup/dropoff times.

Sunday we went to breakfast (a rarity at our house-we rarely move before noon...lol), and then off to wander the mall and Walmart.  I got some cute clothes for the kids at Penney's on clearance (woot).

Today I took the girls, mom, and of course our munchkin man to the park.  It drizzled off and on, but overall, it was pretty nice.  Took a few pics of the girls feeding the ducks.

Brandon is doing well.  Such a sweet and clingy baby...lol!  Just in the last week or so, he wants to be held alot...and isn't sleeping as much (good during the day-hard at night).  I'm pretty sure it's growth spurts and possibly allergies.  He's been clogged alot since he's been with us.  I've been giving saline drops and using the bulb syringe (the antihistamine given doesn't work).  He has his 2 month (already *sniff*) appt Friday-so we'll see then if there's anything else that can be done.

Tomorrow we're off to Kim's for a cookout and fireworks (Alex has to work..but will get his goody plate).  Mom opted not to go-can't say as I blame her, sometimes these things can get boring if you can't keep up with the nonstop chatter of Kim's family.  I think I'll drop the bomb on Kim tomorrow about why I've also been clingy...coming up dingdong reasons to hang out or call.  Or maybe I won't.  Don't know yet.

Anywho, I guess that's about it...I'm sure there's more to update, but I can't think so good right now (sleep deprivation).

*Hugs and Prayers* to Ju and her family, dealing with the loss of a much-wanted pregnancy.  I'm so sorry, honey :*(

*Hugs and Prayers* to Jayme and her precious Elora, born at 25 weeks (she's doing well and oh so tiny!!!).  I certainly hope you can bring her home, happy and healthy, very soon!
