Soccer Mom!

We started soccer last week. Maysen absolutely loves it. Even though it was 42 degrees, he played his heart out. I felt so much for the coach, as twenty 3yr olds were running a muck, chaos flowing in all directions as he's oh-so-calmly trying to explain "Red Light, Green Light" to a bunch of kids who could have sworn he was speaking Greek. Nonetheless, it didn't matter because all kids had a great time and boy did he sleep good that night. This will continue for the next 4 weeks worth of Fridays. I guess I am now officially a soccer mom, as people have been calling me that because I drive a minivan. I wouldn't give it up for the world ... the van, that is!


The rest of the pics from the game, plus more from his first "real" feeding of rice with a spoon are on my Flickr page, please visit if you'd like. Bailey, our doggie, was also dressed as a super hero on that set, as well. We started feeding Griffin very watered down rice with a spoon because he was so hungry at night. He'd eat an 8oz bottle with rice in it (plus his phenobarb) and still wake up hungry. We give him just a little amount about of rice about an hour before his bottle and he's not near as hungry any longer, his digestive system is handling it just great, and the best part is he's sleeping through the night now!! He goes into his crib and he'll sleep from about 8:30pm - 6:30am. We're all just a bunch of happy folks these days! Full and rested :-)
