This, from beautiful Cayucos.

While walking around we saw these three little birds, waiting for their mom and then the mom showed up to give them some food. So magnificently cute.
And today’s Aurelia.

Happy Saturday.

![]() And here’s Aurelia today. I also caught him staring at David’s toy and wanted to snap a shot of that, too. ![]() Curious little boy. It’s been an exceptionally rough few days for me. The lack of sleep is becoming a bit unbearable and add to that the fact that he’s been taking his naps on me, and I am just a tired basket case with a hurting back. We’re leaving for vacation soon and maybe, just maybe, that will be the energy jolt I need.

![]() And the feet, the wonderful feet. ![]() I slept very little last night. David decided he was going to have bad dreams. So he was up 6 times and each time David went to sleep, the baby woke up. And when they were both finally asleep, I had insomnia. Ugh…
Here’s today’s download: ![]() You can download it here:you are loved and cherished circle overlay. There’s a layout coming in my next post that uses it.

You don’t have to but I’d appreciate a link back if you do use them. My mom tried to prepare me for David being jealous when the baby came. I told her that David wasn’t that kind of kid, but she said that I’d never know. Most kids are jealous, she said. I was skeptical but I stayed quiet. ![]() Here’s David putting on a puppet show for Aurelia, just to make sure he wasn’t sad. ![]() Aurelia loved every minute of it. ![]() And here’s the puppet-master. And then when he was done putting on the show. He read to his little brother. ![]() Yep, he’s the best brother ever. We are so blessed.
![]() ![]() This one I took last night as Jake was holding Aurelia. Love this one, too. Love the feeling of nostalgia I get when I look at it. ![]() And a one of the boy with the amazing eyes. He’s been watching Aladdin over and over again for days now. ![]() There are more photos from today coming in a separate post. Between the laziness, taking care of the kids, and eating, I’ve also been reading Best Friends Forever by Jennifer Weiner. I am not sure how I feel about the book yet. I’ve liked her in the past so I am reading and waiting to see if I like it more. Still feeling a bit out of sorts and pensive. But excited for our upcoming vacation. I was reading Rebecca Cooper on write.click.scrapbook today and came across these words:
![]() And this smiling face. This is as David sings and dances around so entertain him. I must say that while Aurelia baby is considerably easier than David was (partly cause I’ve done all this before), it’s still been a rough few months here. I haven’t slept a full night in six months (I wasn’t able to sleep towards the end of my pregnancy at all). Aurelia doesn’t like being put down at all. He nurses almost the whole time while he sleeps. If I try to unlatch he wakes up and cries really hard. If I put him down to grab some food or even to pee, he is really miserable and within minutes, he’s sweating from anger. I am certainly worrying less this time around and having a real maternity break has been wonderful but even with that, I find myself tired too often. And frustrated that I am unable to do what I want to do. My head is spinning with ideas that I have no time to execute. Even though I know that he will eventually sleep through the night and even take naps by himself, that time seems unfathomably far away. And I keep reading about other people’s kids sleeping and I feel like I am messing it all up all over again. But then he smiles. He is so incredibly cute. I hug him hard and I am thankful for each and every moment. |
