Well, the NCAA tournament ended as poorly for me as it began well. I had 6 of the elite 8, but zero of the final four. Ah well, I wasn't in the pool anyway. My final score was 44-19, better than I usually do. Anyway, Beth and I have the house to ourselves again now, as of Sunday, after having a lot of company. My mom was visiting for about a week, Laura for a weekend, Beth's mom for almost 2 weeks, and my dad for another weekend. Everyone oohed and ahhed over Alex, as they should, since he is the cutest thing ever. Mom cried when she left. Alex is doing well, gaining weight, even though nursing is still an ongoing challenge for Beth. As is diapering for anyone who tries it. I'm pretty good at it now, but he's taken to pooping, peeing, AND spitting up when you get the diaper off. It is amazing how one little boy can cause so much laundry. He's been hungry a lot lately, but sleeping well, only getting us up once or twice at night. He already slept through the night once but the doctor told us not to let him do that yet. And we have posted the Saturn for sale on Autotrader.com.
