Getting back into it

Jeff's folks left yesterday and I think it is safe to say that a good time was had by all.  The rain has still not quite let up but I have hope that the rest of the week should be o.k.  I have big plans to go for walks and get some semi-serious, consistent exercise.  We thought that Jeff might have to leave for the field today, but luckily that has been postponed until next week.  Our plan now is to make some good progress on the fence this weekend -  I'm pretty sure that during my upcoming week as a single parent I won't be getting much done on it! I'll post some pics soon.

As for our first day in a while with just the two of us, Silas and I have had a good one so far, and this afternoon we're heading to the chiropractor. He's had a lot of gas issues and crying - not quite colic-y (thank goodness!) but pretty consistently miserable sometimes.  He always is happy as pie after he gets a good poo out (aren't we all!  Ha ha), so hopefully the chiropractor can help work the kinks out, so to speak.  Although most moms would understand, I'll try to limit my poo reports here :)

And to follow the cliche of new moms sitting at home watching soaps and eating bonbons for their mat leave - Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong?!  I'm guiltily looking forward to a summer of entertainment gossip news :)
