Sleet?

So not 10 minutes after I get home from Grocery shopping there's about 10 minutes of sleeting outside.  Odd weather but you'd think we'd be used to it.  I'm not a fan of this time of year, too warm for a winter jacket, too cold for a spring jacket.  You never know how to dress yourself much less the baby!

Speaking of baby...Dex is in a growth spurt now.  The spurt part where he's not sleeping well and eats constantly.  For a while his normal formula intake was about 15-17 oz or up to 22 oz on a odd day.   Well he was upwards of 40 oz 2 days ago same with yesterday and while he's slowing down a bit he still drank a full 8 oz bottle at bedtime...that's a rarity.  Now , the last 2 nights have been horrible..waking constantly crying, restless.  It's almost like he's achy when he wakes, they "say" kids don't get "pains" from growing but I think that's bull.  I remember having growing pains growing up why can't babies get that?  I'm certainly ready for this stage to be done with , since he was sick last week I dont' know if he's gone through the sleepy tired phase yet or not. We shall see...hopefully this will mean more sleepign through the night.  We were done with the night bottle up until this growth spurt so I'm guessing that will go away again once things settle.

The spare room is put back together for now.  We finished the painting and ripping out the carpet.  Not sure when Al will be able to lay the flooring down but it's pretty good for now. 

My parents will be here in 2 days to pick up Victoria, hopefully no sickness is left this time !
