I know I should update more often I just don't have the time/energy? but Im going to try!
Ben is getting so good at holding his head up! Pretty soon he will be rolling over. He's started smiling at us a little more, though I can't wait til he's bigger and is smiling all the time.. (right now his smiles sometimes could still be the "pooping" smile... We have switched his formula to Gentlease so now he's not upset all the time because his tummy hurts. He was sleeping really well for a while but the last few nights he has gotten into the habit of refusing to go to bed. (mommy and daddy dont like this!) we had his 1 month appt at 6 weeks. The dr said he was "growing good" and he was up to 10lbs even and almost 22 in long. our boy is growing!
We are still working on the house, with tons of help from Dad. he comes up once a week to work on it.. (though I think he and mom REALLY come up to see Ben!) We are still working on getting everything packed up etc...which is tough to do when you dont know where you are going to be living! Mom did say today that they are starting on getting things going on the house next door, so now its a wait until they list it to see if we can afford it. It would be really nice to have that house! We would be in the woods, have some room to play, and neighbors wouldnt care if our dog barked! We just keep praying because right now that's all we can do.
AND after 4 years of trying to get a teaching job, I finally got a call this week for a position. Go figure....It's ok though...I feel good knowing I was called. Maybe something will open up when I go back to work? right now I am enjoying being a stay at home mom...and honestly couldnt imagine going back to work right now! I dont know how the moms do it! (Mindy I admire you!) I am hardly making it with the sleep I am getting... I couldnt

imagine going to work on top of it!
Tim and I managed to go to an Eric Church concert and Mom-Mom W. babysat. It was nice to get out even though I was a little worried since it was the longest we had left him! Apparently he went RIGHT to sleep in his crib for Mom-mom. Maybe i should have her over every night??
Well I guess this is all for now. Ill add some pictures of Ben and hopefully post more often! ok I will try to update with pictures later...it wont let me upload right now!
