How is life??

Life is good, but crazy right now!! Macy is almost 2 years old, and she has some crazy "2 year old" moments. Bob made up a little song for her, and she loves to sing it.... "terrible 2's, terrible 2's, Macy is a terrible 2." they sing it together, pretty cute but seriously, she can be pretty bad. Most of the time she does it when I am feeding Jackson, cause she knows I can't jump up and put her on time out. Oh, time out is a treat :) haha, NOT... She does really well on time out normally, but lately WOW BAD, like yesterday I was feeding Jackson and she decided to grab the laptop, I told her to put it back or she was going on time out, she didn't, so I put Jackson down and got up, she ran with the laptop, but it was plugged in so it fell on the ground and she went running off to her bedroom, needless to say she went on time out but she wouldn't stay on time out. Every time she gets of the "naughty chair" (which is actually the bench in our living room) I put her back on and restart her 2 minute time out. This time out took over 30 min... crazy... she just would not stop getting down. Then when she did stay on the bench she was banging her head on the wall or spitting. WTH???? My little princess turns into this little MONSTER!!! She only has these really bad days about once a week, but the rest of the time if I threaten time out she stops doing the bad stuff.
Jackson is now 6 weeks old, I cannot believe how fast time has gone! He is such a big boy now! Finally fits into his newborn clothes!! I think he started wearing these when he was a month old. He is a great little nurser, we are trying to get him used to the bottle because I will be going back to work in about 3 weeks, he does well with it, but gets a little fussy afterwards and wants to nurse even though he just ate. He LOVES his sister Macy, whenever she talks to him he gets the biggest eyes and just stares at her, it is soo cute. He likes tummy time (most of the time) and can lift his head and turn it both directions. He has just started to smile and it is the cutest thing ever!! He mostly smiles at me, yay for me!! But he is a totally different baby than Macy was. Macy didn't really cry much and was pretty content to do whatever. Now Jackson is kind of a fussy baby, he is happy in the mornings and gets worse as the day progresses. He is not patient at all, and at night he like to nurse every hour for about 3 hours (starting about 7 till about 10pm, or whenever dinner is done...) and even when he is nursing he is fussy, just not content. The only thing that makes him calm is a bath, but that is only while he is actually in the water and then it is screaming again :( poor guy, not sure what this is all about but it is pretty consistent every night. Some nights it is just crying and others it is screaming.... I sure hope he grows out of this. But then he will sleep for about 6 hours, which is nice. I'm not sure how much he weighs right now but I'm thinking about 8lbs.

Anyways, thats life right now! Busy, busy. Not sure if I will have anymore kids after this, but I am sure happy with the 2 I have, they are just a lot of work. If I do have one more kid, it will have to be when Jackson is like 4 and can be a little more independent or in school some of the time, cause being stuck inside cause of the snow makes for a stir-crazy Macy. I am excited to go back to work though, not sure how it is all going to work with work, kids, husband, pumping, and doing transport but I will figure something out. Glad I decided not to go to nurse practitioner school right now, I would really be losing my mind if I had...
