Im just trying my best

Ryder is not in the best of moods today. He has been fussing and screamimg all day. He has eaten only about 12-15 pumped oz. today, so I'm sure that has something to do with him being fussy. Everytime we have tried feeding him he will take two sips and push it away screaming (i even tried watered down juice). I got to looking at his gums, bc I noticed when he was screaming he kept chewing on his hands, and sure enough they were red. Poor kiddo is teething so I got out the tylenol and gave him some along with his cold teething ring. This seemed to help, for a little bit. After awhile he was squirming and screaming while looking at his daddy, so I took the hint and passed him over. He stopped crying and at one point ate a little bit. No sooner did he fall asleep daddy laid him down and he woke up crying again. We finally got him settled and layed him in his bassinet where he was fine, until his brothers got in trouble which caused him to scream. Well now B.D. (big daddy a.k.a. Clayton) and I are laying in bed with Ry screaming. I pulled out my phone and started playing the music box app, and of course Ry is content about to fall asleep when, B.D. starts complaining about the music. Then Ry starts crying which makes matters worse. So then I put Ry in his swing (this is also in our room) & turned on the music which B.D. complained about. Finally both of them are asleep and I am honestly thinking about letting him sleep in his swing. Im afraid if I move him he will wake up. I have to get up in 5 hours any ways so I think he maybe fine. I hope.

The bodypillow

So back in April when I was still in the hospital my granny got me this pink furry body pillow. I love this thing it made the hospital bed comfortable and when I got home it made sleeping a lot easier. If only I had it during pregnancy. It has gotten to the point where I don't sleep with any other pillow. Well whenever I have to get up out of bed it never fails Clayton steals my pillow. It makes me so mad bc he is so strong and had such a grip its a battle getting it back from him. I usually end up waking him up to get it, which makes him cranky. but I dont care. It's my pillow not his. So now I have been on the hunt for another one like this one bc the store where my granny bought this on sold out. I'm hoping that since school is starting soon I'll be able to find him one. If any of you know where I can find one please please please feel free to leave a comment. Thanks

Fairytale beginning

Ok so last night I was talking to some fellow march/April mommas and the topic of how we met our significant others came up. I love mine and Clayton's story it seems like something straight out of the movies or something so here ya go: its was the summer of 05 when I moved onto my parents property down by the lake (lake eufaula). I had graduated the year before and had some issues with my roommate and moved to the lake. At first it was a blast going down to the lake partying all the time it was perfect. But then I started to get bored with it and was running low on money so I got myself a job waitressing at the local truck stop. The pay sucked but the tips were awesome usually about $30 on a dead slow night. Well I started ti notice this guy who was always driving around in a beat up bronco. Well during the day I helped my mom at the leasing type office and the cleaning lady and her were always talking about how I needed to meet her son clay. The way his b.com talked him up in my head I thought here is another mom trying to hook up her loser son. usually when a mom says her son is a nice boy that sends up red flags. So meeting her son was the least of my worries plus I was wanting to meet this "bronco" guy. One day before work I filled in at the security office and I noticed "Mr.Bronco" was up by there doing his laundry. I wanted so bad to go over to talk to him but for some reason I was nervous (which is nothing like me). A week had past and then when I was out walking with a friend of mine we see "Mr. Bronco" at the laundry mat and I ask her who he was, she informs me that its her sister's ex-boyfriend Clay. Then my friend J. pulled up on his 3-wheeler and after talking suggested he would take me over to meet him. So I hopped on and we went over. It was a brief introduction when his ex saw the competition and suggested I got for a walk with her and her friends. The whole walk consisted of them talking down on clay but i mostly ignored them bc I could tell they were jealous. Then the next day I was at work and got invited to a party Clay and his ex-gf sister came up to my work and he asked me out. I tried to pull it off and said that I was going to a party and if he wanted we could hang out there. When I got off work my mom had left a message saying that Clay was going to pick me and  so I rode with him. When we got back to my place I went inside to change came back outside and since it was still early we sat on my porch swing talking. Before we knew it the sun was coming up. We then drove down to the lake shore and watched the sun come up. I remember we were standing side by side I was standing on a big rock so I could be a little taller, we looked at each other and for the first time kissed. He had his arms wrapped around me and they were so big and warm I never wanted him to let me go. Three months later we were married and then 9 months after that
I gave birth to our first son. We have been married now for going on 6 years and next summer we are renewing our vows and having a real wedding ceremony. But those details are for another day.
