tired.

B had a game last night- they normally play 2 innings (everyone gets to bat and run the bases). Last night they played 4.
I can't complain, my husband is the coach.
The boys had fun.
It was cold though...
and I was tired...
and thinking of the 100 things I needed to be doing at home.
Watching my big baby boy (as opposed to my little baby boy) run the bases with that huge goofy smile of his though pretty much melted my heart :)
Seriously, he gets his hit and runs the bases with his biggest smile, he was the last batter last night (they rotate each game) so each time he would hit he would get to run the bases with out stopping. Ya know which smile I'm talking about?! His biggest one!
Plus, he had three little girls on the opposing team yelling, "Hiii Brycen!!!" lol, two were girls from his old pre-school and the other was his "girlfriend" Kennedy.
It cracked me up.
We got many comments by other parents after the game about him being "quite the crowd pleaser". What can I say? The boy has charisma! haha!
It might be cute at 5, not so sure this momma is going to like it at 15!
My brother was at the game and B said that it made him "nervous to bat b/c Uncle Joe is here"! I thought that was sweet! He did great each time up though.
Sunday was Corbin Fisher's baby dedication at church.
We were grateful that our families were able to come and celebrate this special day with us.
It did feel like a full circle had come...
I can't explain how it made me feel, but I think things like this still surprise me that we actually do have a precious baby boy here with us!
We all went to eat at Mi Pueblo afterward, man, I love that place!
Both the pictures in this post are pictures my brother took and tagged me on facebook.
I have been terrible about getting my camera out this week.
Honestly, this sounds whiny, but it's the truth.
I'm too tired.
I'm so exhausted.
This five hours of sleep is for the birds!
I can't go to sleep earlier b/c I have a house to clean and laundry to do.
Corbin sleeps great, all night long so it's by no fault of his that I'm not sleeping!
He is such an excellant baby. I forgot to mention that he turned 3 months last week. I can't believe it.
I weighed him at home and he was 14.2... yes, he likes to eat still :)
He's so chubby and his little rolls are so cute!
I love that his brother can't get enough of him.
And the best thing?
Sunday morning when I got him out of the tub, I wa drying him off, and he gave me the biggest big man belly laugh!
I started squealing and I guess he thought that was funny too b/c he laughed at me again :)
Melt.my.heart.
We got him to laugh again yesterday (I think his chin is his tickle spot).
All weekend we packed. And we're still no where near done. Yikes!
Tonight I have to get ready for the yard sale, which is Wedneday evening and Thursday.
SO.Much. Stuff.
I am not ready to move out of our house, but then again I just want to have it over with b/c I feel like we're living in a tornado!
Saturday we got a lot of furniture moved so that will be helpful come moving day.
We are trying to move stuff as we go so it won't be a really stressful day the day we have to move out.
Ryan met with the guy about our property yesterday and the (re) survey will be finished (or is supposed to be finished) within three days! After that it should just be a week or two 'til theproperty is actually finally OURS. Yayy! At least we are making a little bit of progress.
Tonight Erin is coming up from Louisville to visit and look at yard sale stuff.
Tomorrow I have to take the van to Princeton for them to do a treatment on our upholestry (like scotch guard for your carpet). Ryan got that thrown in with the deal- yah, he is good at bargaining, did I say I wasn't? B/c I'm not! lol.
I know this post is the most random post ever...
So while I'm at it I'm going to throw in some cute things that B says right now that I don't want to forget (I don't blame you if you aren't still reading this crazy post!).
Brycen says yeglar (for regular). I love it so I don't really correct him.. bad, I know.
He speaks very clearly, but this is one thing he says all the time. If yu ask him to say "regular" he can and will, but when he is just talking it comes out yeglar... love it!
example- "I want yeglar milk instead of chocolate." :)
The other day I walked into the family room and Corbin was in his bouncy seat where I left him- the one difference was that B had the bouncy seat handcuffed to the end table... guess he didn't want C getting away! haha!
Man, I know there is stuff I am forgetting... I am going to try to do better about documenting the funny things he says... b/c he is funny!
Oh yesterday he came home from school and says, "Do you know what's good about girls when they go to college?" I said no.... and he said, "they become women". I about fell down. I asked him who on Earth told him that and he said, "no one, I heard it on the movie where the dog plays basketball." ??? I have no clue which movie that is??? The only movie I could think of was Air Bud... I've watched the movie, but never real close... It was hilarious, but I was also mortified at the same time.
Okay, I'm going to quit rambling... and I know that's all I've done- that's about all my brain can make sense of right now!!
i hope this post doesn't come off as ungrateful for what i have been blessed with. my kids don't really make me tired- they are the fun part! i'm mainly speaking of work (which i'm grateful for as well, but it is tiring) and the business of selling a house and building a new one (which I am also grateful for, but well... it's tiring). I don't take my life for granted and I hope I don't come off that way- this is just a place I feel safe "venting" too... and this morning I needed to vent about being worn out.

I am often 'tired' too, just try to remember this is what we wished for so long. 'tired' is a great trade off.

Chels, I don't think you could ever come off as being ungrateful! The joy you have in your heart is always evident in your posts - and all the love you have for your family:) I totally understand the whole tired thing - building a house just drains you!! it's fun, but so much work:)! Love you, hang in there!!
