regularly scheduled programming


our boy is a little tease. the past two nights he's been back to the usual up every 3 1/2 to 4 hours. i can handle it - he is afterall just a baby - but the sweet taste of 7 straight sleeping hours still lingers.
i still love him. i even hold him and kiss him sometimes (see photo).
here's the deal: i love california. we have a blessed life here. however, it breaks my heart a little each day that we're far away from family. since my mom returned to north carolina, i've called her everyday with updates. sometimes i don't have an update cause it's just screaming and sleeping and pooing as usual, but i call anyway because i just want to talk. yesterday i called to ask her where the coffee filters are, not really expecting her to know.
i send her and my dad special photos. i update this blog as often as i can, partially because i know they're reading it. still, nothing can replace their loving arms. i want very badly for them to know their grandson. i hope i do a good job helping them.
tayloe's mom is set to arrive this afternoon and i know when she leaves i'll feel the exact same way.
awah holy crap & spank a midget. i'm getting all mushed out and my inner schedule nazi took the cue and went on a smoke break.
it's 1:38. time to make the doughnuts.
