Tuesday, closing

Well, it is almost 9:00; Rowan and I are still awake. I think he has had so much food today, that the energy is still keeping him awake! We watched American Idol, our Tuesday night ritual. I was a little disappointed in some of the Idols, but others were very good. I mean, Mariah Carey!!! Come on, even the BEST could not pull off her songs. It was smart for some of them to twist the songs and make them their own.
I really love Brooke White, but her range is nothing!!! She is amazing, and I would certainly buy her cd's. I love the unique, raspy sound of her voice. Syesha, oh Lord. She is okay, but there is just nothing original about her, and that annoys me. My FAVORITE, and my new love, is Jason Castro! I know some people don't care for him, but he's hot...I love his voice, and I like the fact that singing is something he just found interest in; he is not TRAINED professionally to be what society says a singer SHOULD be. He's just unique...and hot. I love his eyes! Lord have mercy...he's hot. Oh, and I think he's really hot. Okay, okay. I know...
So Rowan really likes watching AI. He's my little musical genius, I do believe! Watch out America!!! He will be steeling your hearts in 15 years with his vocals! LOL
So, Rowan has some new tricks too. Yep, he learned to climb the furniture; now, he has been doing this for a little while, but...he NOW knows how to get himself down! It had been, he would cry, and Mommy would rescue him. Well, tonight, I stood strong. I explained to him that he was a BIG boy, he was climbing into the chair now, but that Mommy would NOT be helping him get down. A few minutes of crying, and me turning my head in fear, and low and behold...he climbed down on his own!!!! So, how long until he climbs out of his crib???? YIKES!!!

Tuesday, 04-15

Hello ladies and gentleman! Today has been a good day so far. Rowan slept well last night, I was drugged on Ny-Quil, so I slept for FIVE hours straight! A record, I do believe! Rowan woke up at 3:00 Am, then went back to bed for the night. It was a good night, indeed!!! :-)
Rowan has had quite the appetite today. For breakfast, he had cheerios and fruit and formula. His morning snack consisted of cheese, crackers and apple juice. He went down for a nap, and so did Mommy!!! Yep, that's right. I got a nap too!!! WOOHOO!!! After nap, Rowan was quite the hungry little man and ate yet again. He had some chicken and carrot sticks and banana. He was acting hungry early this evening, so I heated up Healthy Choice meal that we didn't finish yesterday, and he finished it ALL! It was some pasta and cheese meal, and he had more bananas. THEN, he just ate AGAIN! Yep, he ate steak, baked potato, mashed potatoes (we ordered food from Applebee's, three of us, so there was a lot to choose from). I tried to give him some of my baked tilapia, but apparently he is not a fish eater. He did love the steak though! Oh, and he had french fries. He is quite the little eater, I do foresee us going broke trying to feed our two little ones!!!
I am starting to feel a little better, but still not up to par. My head is not as congested as it has been, but my eyes HURT, well...my whole body hurts to be totally honest. I feel like every muscle in my body just aches. Hopefully we will be on our way to recovery SOON! I haven't been to the gym all week, and let me tell ya...I can tell! I just haven't had the energy...oh please, Lord, let this all end soon. It just isn't right to be sick AND have a baby to take care of. It is hard enough taking care of yourself when you aren't feeling well!!!
That's all I have to report for now, but the night is still young. I may be back on to tell ya'll more!
