What a fun weekend! We had some friends - the Spruells - come stay with us. They moved from Fayetteville to Houston 3 years ago. It was awesome to see them again. Their children are beautiful and sweet. Owen met his match with Luke who is the same age. It was a great learning experience for him. Now maybe he won't beat up on other kids in MDO and church. Alyssa was definitely worn out on Sunday. She let us know about it that evening.

Here is a shout out to all moms of infants -
Today I am totally struggling with it all. I am just frustrated and feel like I just can't get it right. I have been trying so hard for 12 weeks to do my best at getting her on a schedule and sleeping through the night. Neither of which are happening. Her naps are never consistent or the same from one day to the next. I can't get her to eat more than 4 oz. Lately she is wanting to be propped up on her side to go to sleep at night. She also wanted this today at nap and I didn't realize it until finally on the 3rd nap of 30 minutes I was like - you have to go back to sleep - so I propped her up and she did. Within like 2 minutes. Insane!!!! I am just so full of baby brain I can't think of anything else. I am constantly going over all of this in my head trying to figure out what I can do to make things better. Anyways, I had to gripe somewhere so I decided to do it here.
