To Big To Fast.

I am sad to say that I think Bryson is outgrown his 0-3month clothes.  Even though most of his 3-6 pants are far to long, all of his 0-3 sleepers are now to short and are slowly going to have to make their way into boxes.  I am really sad about this mainly just because I think I get sad at each new stage, and also because Bryson was over a month old before he could even wear any of his 0-3 month things since he started out as such a peanut.  But nevertheless he is now 13+ pounds and growing like a weed so into new clothes we go.

Finally my very own blog!

I am so excited.  I have finally created my very own blog.  I have been thinking about it for a very long time considering I am a big fan of other people's blogs, I have several I read daily.  Now I am aware that there is a good possibility that no one will ever read this and I am okay with that.  I just think that sometimes its nice to have a place to type what you are thinking, and sometimes its easier to talk to yourself than someone else.  But for anyone who might ever read this be prepared for run on sentences, horrible spelling, and lots of emphatic punctuation (ie lots of ....and !!! and phrases in (_) )

So very quickly about me.  My name is Jennifer.  I am 26yo and am from Yukon, Oklahoma.  I am a labor and delivery nurse, a job I used to love until I became a mom and now I would rather just be a stay at home mom, but since thats not financially feasible I still do it.  My true calling is being a mother to my 4 month old son Bryson.  It is the role that I was meant to play.  And I think that was evident when I was 2 and my mom brought home my baby brother and I insisted that I could feed him and carry him around...and basically took over all that I could.  I really feel that all my dreams have come true....and sure I would like to live in a bigger house, have a job where I work less hours for more money, and be many many many pounds lighter but when it comes down to it I have a man that I love and he loves me back.  He proves it to me in so many ways but just coming home to me day after day in spite of all my attitude and hormones is all I could really ask for.  I have a cute little house in the suburbs, which most importantly I can afford.  I drive a car that runs and when it doesn't run I have the money to fix it.   I have a lot of good family and friends that drive me insane, but at the same time I couldn't live without their love and support.  And as previously mentioned I have a beautiful baby boy that words can not describe how lucky I feel to have him.

So now that thats out of the way, here is what is on my mind today:

Cameron (my darling husband)had his wisdom teeth out today.  And for anyone (mainly my mother) who think that I am a difficult patient they need to come spend some time with him.  I woke him up to take his pain meds and it took him 5 minutes to take them and he got irritated that I woke him up (as instructed by the nurse, so that he wouldn't wake up hurting).  I wouldn't have minded him taking so long to take them, and really don't care if he is irritated, but Bryson was also cranky because he was tired and Bryson fights sleep with the best of them so he was screaming.  I just keep thinking to myself that I have had abdominal surgery twice this year and was not that bad (a c/section in July and my gall bladder removed the week before thanksgiving).  But none the less Cameron really did his best to take good care of me so I owe him the same.  I do hate seeing him like this because he is always the protector, but what can you do...his teeth had to come out.  On another note, I am excited to say that Cameron's Christmas present came in today and I was lucky that it came when it did because he was to doped up to notice.  I got him a kinect for the Xbox and I am really excited about it because I don't think that he will guess that I got it for him, but at the same time he is gonna love it!! (at least I hope).  Alright, must go put Cameron's ice pack back on him.  But I will leave you with a pic of Mr. Bryson in a pair of Christmas jammies...these jammies will probably be to small by the time Christmas rolls around.  (try to ignore the fact that the picture is sideways, I don't quite know how to flip it yet
