Summer is FLYING!!

I don't know where the summer has gone. We have had sleepless nights, great family days, lots of swimming and great family memories!

Brayden refuses to sleep, teething sucks, now I am sure he is used to sleeping with us - which is the last thing we wanted. But in order to get any sleep he has ended up sleeping on us. We have tried crying it out, we have tried tylenol for the teeth, teething tablets, white noise, no night light, music, I feel like we have really screwed him up. BUT - I wouldn't change anything because in the morning when I barely can keep my eyes open, he smiles and babbles to me. I LOVE HIM!

Damian is doing well too, he has been very affectionate lately and tells us he loves us all the time, it really keeps us grounded, because when he isn't listening like typical 4 year olds do, we remember how much we love each other and gets us throught the bad days. I really miss them both, when I have to work, but we know it has to be done.

We have gone to the zoo, great adventure, the beach and took swimming lessons. We have had many good times with old friends and new.

Things might really be rough for Ricky and I right now, but we still have each other and the kids to keep us going!

Once I start sleeping better (which I hope is sooner rather than later...just saying). I hope I can keep up with this blog more. Fall is approaching quickly and summer will be long gone. I can't believe I am already thinking about Halloween...LOL!
