Sleeping Boys

Brian and Tim are alseep and I'm not, so I finally have time to post. Brian got really sick on Wednesday -- fever, vomiting, diarrhea. I am very nervous that Tim might catch it from Brian and have to go back to Children's Hospital so it's been hard to sleep. I feel really bad because I'm not able to be with Brian very much (in order to avoid getting sick myself because I need to take care of Tim). For those of you who know me well, you know that being with Brian is my #1 favorite place to be. I can't wait for things to be back to normal and I'm sure Brian is even more anxious.
The other day Lara invited me to her house to pick out scrapbook supplies that her friend, Grace, was getting rid of. It was such a fun night. I couldn't believe all of the cool stuff that I was given. Grace's new name is Santa G. It truly felt like Christmas only 100x better. I donated to Santa G's charity, Nanay, a group in which young adults and elderly women come together for activities. Santa G's generosity not only made my day, but it inspired me to scrapbook again. It also made me want to give back to everyone else. I'm sure Grace doesn't know what an impact she has made. Thanks, Santa G.
Tim has been such a cutie. He's really doing so much now. He stays sitting up by himself, rolls around, walks all over in his walker, laughs & giggles, babbles (especially when he's tired), falls asleep easily in his car seat, grabs his feet especially when he has his cute crib shoes on, grabs our faces. He loves taking baths and hates having his shirt put on. He's 25 lbs now and I'm not sure how tall..over 30". He's slowed down on his weight gain finally and looks more stretched out although he still has his squeezable legs. He loves jumping and walking. Our wrestling mat has been a great buy. He rolls all over it and plays with each toy he rolls to. Eating wise, Tim has tried a bunch of fruits and vegetables -- squash, bananas, green beans, peaches. I think bananas are his favorite food but his formula is by far his #1 choice. I can't wait until Tim can run and play sports with us. He will be a fun little guy to play with.
Brian and I have been working hard. We have a vacation planned in San Diego. I'm hoping the weather will be good but it will be fun no matter what. We are staying at the Kings Inn in San Diego. They have a nice pool & hot tub. Last weekend, Brian bought Tim a floating seat for the hot tub. We used it in Burney and it was great. Tim loved it so we're bringing it to San Diego. We hope to surf a little, check out some houses to see how much the market has dropped down there (crazy drops) and go to Sea World. I talked to Tim's geneticist and he said UCSD has a Children's Hospital with a great geneticist so we should be fine if Tim gets sick down there. Speaking of the housing market in San Diego, if we already owned a home here and could still afford it, I would buy a vacation place in San Diego in a heartbeat. The prices are unreal! San Diego is so nice too. Oh well. We'll see how the market is in SD once we are able to afford a home here...maybe the market will go so low that we can afford both. Woohoo!
I have some good pictures of Tim but haven't had time to download them yet. I will post soon.
