Well, Landon is doing better. We spent the last week with him staying home, not taking him out at all. Today we finally took him out of the house, so we could order a table for the dining room, and pick up dinner. He seemed to do just fine, but I am still paranoid after our not fun hospital stay.
Laura and Dirk are planning to get married this month, and Bobby and I are currently planning to host the wedding at our house! Should be a blast, and it will be the first time we have a bunch of people out to the house. We’ve got more work that we are trying to finish on the house before the wedding.
We are also attempting to refinance the house. It’s currently a construction loan, and we need to make it a house loan now.
Landon is just adorable, so here are lots of pictures! Also, you can see the new haircut in the pictures, let me know what you think!
Lots of Pictures

I knew when we moved out here that there would be bugs in the house. I knew that there would be wildlife outside.
I did not, however, expect to come down stairs at 2AM to find a snake IN MY HOUSE!
The cats were playing with it. It was about 10 inches long, and pencil thin. I don’t know what kind it was, it was not a rattler.
Landon has started to smile BACK at us now. He always smiled, but it was for his own reasons. Now he smiles in response to things! He just really started to do that today!
He is also “cooing” a lot more today, like he just figured out that he can make noise! It’s so cute!!!

No, we don’t have a certificate of livability yet. Yes, that means we are “squatting” in our own home.

Moving Day is tomorrow. Our computer and internet access is going away tonight, and our DSL is “supposed” to be set up tomorrow at the house.
However, I wouldn’t be surprised if the DSL doesn’t work out right, because that’s the type of luck we’ve been having. So, No internet access for at least the next 48 hours, possibly no internet until the cable gets hooked up, which might be as late as the 18th of September.
If you need to contact us, I’m going to do a friends only post with our address and phone number.
Otherwise, I’ll post when I have access again, and in the meant time, just assume I don’t have access.

So it’s been hit and miss today with nursing. I have gotten him to latch and feed a few times with no problems, and a few times with issues. I’ve given him 2 bottles in the last 24 hours, although all breast milk.
Went to the lactation consultant today. That was a waste. She basically said I’m doing everything right, and my son is just stubborn. That he gets frustrated and that’s when he starts fighting me.
I have been vacillating between feeling pretty good and feeling pretty bad. I haven’t wanted to answer my phone today, its just seemed like too much effort, so I finally shut the stupid thing off. I apologize if I missed a call from you!
The actual outing to the consultant went well, actually, in the sense that I now feel confidant that if I needed to run to the store, I could do it. However, that doesn’t mean it was a fun trip. The LC was in Gilbert.
Landon is doing well other than our nursing issues. He is just so amazing and cute! I am totally in love with him. I can’t believe how amazing he is.
The house building is not going well at the moment. I’m crossing my fingers that it will be ready by Sept 7th, but I have a feeling it’ll be more like the 15th. We’ll manage, we have a place to stay, so I’m trying to just relax and go with the flow on this issue. The house will be done when it’s done.
Next week I am hoping to have the energy to start a light workout routine of some sort. I’ve got some preggo weight I want to lose.

Still pregnant.

Went out to the house yesterday, Bobby worked on some things.

Read The Time Traveler’s Wife, because a friend from work loaned it to me.  I thought it was really good, but it did make me cry.  Overall I would recommend the book!

NST set at the hospital for tomorrow morning, so I’ll probably post after that.

kitchen countertops are in!
