As of today (or possibly as of earlier - but only known to us as of today), Liam has another new tooth. That makes 7 teeth in less than a month. Go hard or go home seems to be his motto these days. After he gets one more we will supposedly have a break before he starts the next round, which will include the molars and make what we've gone through so far seem like a cakewalk (or so I'm told).Yesterday we saw an article from our local paper that profiled the family that won the spot on the Code Green show that we applied to. As we predicted, it was indeed the family with 9 kids, half of them being foster kids. The family also has a 50-year-old furnace so I am no longer quite so bitter - we just weren't able to compete (1 kid versus 9 and a 5-year-old furnace versus 50: the numbers are against us).
We are just taking it easy today and resting up for a busy week ahead of us. We were out at a party last night, which always seems like a great idea at the time, but it sure is different doing stuff like this with kids. There's the question of who will babysit (thanks, Aunt Deb!), not wanting to stay out too late because you have to get home to the babysitter, but still being exhausted the next day even if you didn't stay out that late, because the kiddo is up before dawn as usual anyhow. So now, I'm off to take a nap. Sleep while the baby sleeps, right?
