It has been a very busy month. I was sick for about a week, Trig has had a lot of firsts going on, I had a few craft sales, I started selling Norwex, we had Thanksgiving and we got some really good news on Trig.
Trig no longer has bottles he is straight sippy cups and he can also drink out of straws also. He started pulling himself up on the furniture and walks to furniture. I can't believe he is getting so big fast. It makes me so sad. He has a bad temper also. He tries to get his way all the time but it doesn't work that way in our house. He needs to learn that earlier than later I think. The one thing that makes me really sad is that he goes to bed so early. He started going to bed at like 6:30pm and it kept getting earlier and earlier he is now going to bed at almost 5:30pm. And sleeps until like 7am. He started eating a lot of people food also. He eats mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, stuffing, bread the list goes on and on. He eats a lot of stuff. He loves his food though.
I got really sick for about a week and ended up having E-coli. Don't ask me what I ate or where I got it from but it was horrible. I made it through and still alive so that is a good thing. I love being a stay at home mom but let me tell you I was wishing I wasn't a stay at home mom for that week that is for sure. When you are a mom you don't get sick or vacation days. It was hard but I think it only makes us stronger. My parents were on vacation that week and I sure missed them then. They got home the Saturday night that it really hit me and they took him the next day all day and brought him back home at night. I love my parents to pieces and don't know what or where I would be without them. Thanks Mom and Dad!
I finished up with my craft sales for the season and that went good. I am glad that they are over though. But at my last craft sale I was looking at a Norwex catalog as I love their product and decided I would take on a new adventure in life. I love getting out and about with being a stay at home mom. With those of you that know me I don't do good sitting around by myself all the time. I am a people person so I thought doing this new adventure would give me both the things that I want. I want to stay at home with Trig and also get out and see people, picking my own schedule. So I am very excited for this new adventure.
We had a very good Thanksgiving. We stayed down here and had Thanksgiving with Chad's family and that was fun. Everyone on his mom's side made it besides one of her nephews wives as she was sick. It was good to see everyone and we had a very good time. Thanksgiving was a good Holiday and Trig's first but I am getting very excited about Trig's first Christmas it will be so fun.
I went Black Friday shopping with my Mom, Tyler and Marisa. We started at 10pm and we had a blast and I pulling into my driveway at 11am. So than Chad had to leave to do chores as his Dad was sick so I had to find something to do so I called his Mom and asked her to go shopping with us for a little bit. So it was a long day as I got up at 6am on Thanksgiving and didn't go to bed until 10pm on Friday and I can honestly say I have never fell asleep so fast!
Most of you wouldn't know but we went through a bout of seizures with Trig in August and had an EEG done that said he had right temporal lobe spikes which could have been causing the seizures and also had a MRI done to make sure there was nothing wrong with his brain and that came back perfect. So we have had him on medicine since then and we went back in for a follow up EEG and it came back perfect so we can take him off his medicine. This is a good thing and I am happy. I didn't say anything as it wasn't a big deal. I just have this moto that if there would have been something wrong with him it would have been fine as we couldn't have done anything about it but deal with it and it wouldn't have made me feel any different about my little feller. He is a very happy child with a mind of his own. I wonder where he gets that from?
I find it weird that after having a child I have became so patient with things. I don't jump at things so fast and I can let things go easier. I don't let things get to me so bad. Don't get me wrong I still have moments but I am doing much better with it. Now if only I had a maid to clean my house I would be smooth sailing. I love my house to pieces it is the most amazing thing that we have done but I think I have out grown it already. But I think that even if we got a bigger house (which I wouldn't want to clean) I would outgrow that one also so I have learned no to hoard things. I just throw them away! I like that idea much better.
I hope that you are all are healthy and that you are all getting ready for Christmas.
I will leave you with some new pictures!
Mom and I went shopping and Trig fell asleep and this is how he slept the whole time we were in the store! It was so cute.
Trig during he EEG, he did so good with the test. I was nervous and he is a Curious George and a very nosie kid. I was waiting for him to rip it off and figure out what it was.
