Life in the Ellis house!

So, I do have pictures to post, but will have to do that tonight sometime. SORRY!

Trenton is home, currently with MeMe, and doing better. He is going to be home every day this week with a different person - how exciting! He still has his RSV cough, but that is going to be around for a while. Yesterday we went to see Dr. Allen and Trenton is up to 10 pounds, 14 oz! He is so big! Wednesday we go to our P Pod appointment. This is a study through MCG where they track his growth and hopefully my weight loss! :) Monday, 1/25 he goes in for his shots...try again!

Wes and I are having such fun learning how to adjust to life with a baby! I have already been exposed to learning how to schedule things, meaning YOU CAN'T! I am having trouble with this because although I never was much of a planner, it is still hard for me to see dust lying on the table and not get up and dust! I wasn't this way until I had a child. And, I love my husband, I truly do, but this is another hard thing. He asks me every time I am running around the house cleaning, etc "What can I do to help?" Most women would probably love this question, but it really starts to get on my nerves. Does he not see the laundry piling up? The dust everywhere? That big dust bunny hiding behind the trashcan? I do love him and I tell him - I hate that question, so what does my husband decide to do? Caulk...truly, do we need to caulk as badly as the laundry needs to be done? This is why I love him.

Also, Saturday I started class - had a breakdown. I am not sure how I am going to manage work, school, mommyhood, wifehood, and keep up with everything. I will do it, but school is definitely going to have to slow down because clearly it will be the thing to lose out if anything changes. During class we had to go over the syllabus and then there was a group project - how sad am I, I didn't have a partner and still don't. This is a hard role for me because I have never been this girl. I am truly pitiful. I realized that most every one in my class is on the fast track and they are all together all the time. I can't do that. I truly was so pathetic. I just had one of those emotional days - I had to leave my sick child to go to class, I was tired, and I was just feeling overwhelmed! Please someone make fun of me for this. So, in a desperate attempt to find a partner I have emailed people in my class...I may just be partnerless. :(

Check back soon for pictures of my precious man during his stay in the hospital.
