Time to go.

Today it was time to go, we had a blast. The boys are sad and do not want to go home. It took us about 3 hours to pack up and get on the road. All in all this park was good. I think i would give it a 3 out of 5 stars.

Reasons to lose stars.
It did not seem like there were park rangers present when there were lots of people. They started going around when all the people were gone.
The other reasons I already listed.

All in All what a wonderful family time we had.

Our Hike

We went on a short hike today, it was so pretty. i am so happy to have this wonderful time with our family. We are playing games and enjoying each other. Grayson is not sleeping well at night but the coffee is strong and hot and set to brew before we get up, makes for a wonderful morning. We are liking this park.

There are a few things that are different.
I thought it was a state park rule children must wear helmets when riding.
I thought there was no beer rule, but there has been lots of drinking.
There is also lots of people not being conciderate to others with their music playing.

All in all this is turning out to be a great trip. Every one in this loop is pulling out today (Sunday) and we are staying till Tue. We have the park to ourselves.

More to come.

first trip

Well we started out first trip around 4:30 Going to lake Livingston State park. GPS says we will get there at 7:25. So it will be dark and every one will be starving. Hope the baby sleeps the whole way or we will have to stop to feed her. I wish i would have thought ahead and got some snacks for the kids to eat. next time. So thankful for a DVD player and how to Train your Dragon. More to come.

Quite and Stillness of Breastfeeding

Addison is now 12 days old, she is wonderful. I had some problems breastfeeding. She has a strong suck and my poor nipples got so raw, I had a break down by the morning of day #4. I called my midwife and she was at my house with in 30 mins. She will never know how much she has touched our lives. I went again yesterday for help to get off the nipple sheilds, so far so good.

Addison, is just wonderful. I am amazed with having a girl. Its different, so different. Its hard to get used to he diaper area. When are you know is boy, boy, boy, its hard to get used to. We are taking it one change at a time.

God bless this little one.

One week old

Wow, we made it through the first week. Addison is so perfect. I cant seem to put her down. She has my heart in the palm of her hand already. We have had a few problems. Breast feeding is not going as well as i hoped. I am having to use nipple shelds, but she is feeding well so i can not complane too much. The other problem we are having is sleep. She is up alot at night and its hard to get rest. But last night she did really well. I am about to change her and rub her down with olive oil and lavender oil to calm her then feed her and get her in bed. Wish us luck.

Hurting

Man, this sweet girl is killing me. I have way more pain with this one than I did even with my twins. I hurt in places that I did not know you could hurt. When I sleep my knees hurt really bad, making it hard to sleep.

On a good note, Lewis took day off to try to get some of the last min things done before the baby gets here. He has to go get the boys early from Grandmas house and they start school on Monday.

Try again

Today is day 4 without my boys, they are at grams, and lots to be done today. I drove for almost an hour getting lost again and again trying to find the Gulfgate Dodge dealership to get the oil changed in my hubby's car. I hate driving in Houston without my GPS. Lewis's poor stick shift car, mom is mucbh rougher on it than he is. But at least I am getting the oil changed for him.
After I finish, I have to go turn in the boys paperwork for K, i still can not believe how much out lives are going to change. Big boys start school and having a baby girl at home. Life is so good.

We have taken this kid free week to get the things done that we have been putting off for so long. Glad to be doing all this before this baby comes.

Thats about it for today... I think this will help me Blog easier, we will see.
