Let's see ...
Vlad will be three weeks old on Monday, so he probably weighs about 9 lbs. by now. This is based on his weight gain in the first week, and confirmed by his size relative to his clothes and diapers :-). He's very cuddly, but he doesn't mind lying on the floor for a few minutes occasionally, if we can clear a space of brothers, sisters, and their debris.
It's been a very odd winter. Today it's been in the 70's, but they say we may have snow tomorrow. Plenty of rain. Everything has been going well. The girls had a great time at their Girl Scouts program yesterday. The attendees ate all my fried rice, but not my salad. Der Prinz and Bill have been eating it!
The kids had only a day off while I was in the hospital. We've been kind of taking this week off, because I've been tired and they had things going on with Scouts. I'll probably record one day as a vacation day (today), and figure they did enough that was Educational on the other days to count as a school day! I think we'll have Monday off, too, since the schools are closed for President's Day.
Sounds like Vlad is Digesting, so I'd better go look into his diaper. Not too much on the calendar for the weekend - Bill and Dad have a 5K run tomorrow morning, and Tom has an overnight at the church with Cub Scouts on Saturday, but none of those is a big effort. I'll concentrate on sleeping as much as possible!
Three weeks? ALREADY???? Dang! Time flies...
It seems to have been an odd winter all over the country this year, for some reason. We haven't had rain since October 17.
For some reason, I'm not really surprised that you've been tired this week. You seem to have been going at full speed since Baby Vlad came to stay. It's good that you can give the kids a four-day weekend (not to mention yourself!) so you can rest a little.
I truly hope you get the rest you need while the guys are doing the running things. Just remember that you can't be much good to them, Baby Vlad, or yourself if you aren't rested.
(Of course, those of us on the UT want you around, too...)
