The monthly update

I swear, it seems I can't manage to post an update to here more than once a month or so lately. Life has been insane around here, and I'm lucky to get a bit of downtime, let alone managing to actually do anything!

Latest news from the Morrows -

I have a new job. And a new schedule. I now work for a call center, and for the next 90 days at least I am working 6-2:45, Tuesday through Saturday. One week in, and I still feel good about my decision to switch jobs. I'm making about the same amount of money, with far more opportunity to make more money than I've had before.

Garry is well. Adjusting to being responsible for taking the boys to daycare 4 mornings a week, but doing well. He's heading to Germany at the beginning of May for a week of work, and if I hadn't just started a new job, I would so be going with him! Unfortunately, I can't this time, but hopefully the next time he travels for work I can tag along!

Eamon is two! Yes, TWO! He had his birthday March 17, and was spoiled rotten with presents! It seems that everyone we know gave him a present, and he now has more toys and books and coloring stuff than he knows what to do with. He's growing like a weed still, and mostly happy. We still have some issues with the new schedule, but he's always had difficulty adjusting to changes in his routine. We finally got his hearing tested, after hounding our family doctor about his lack of speech progress, and he failed the hearing test, so it's off to an ENT to get him checked out thoroughly. There is some fluid build-up in his right ear that is likely severely impacting his ability to hear out of that ear, so we're hoping that once we get that taken care of, he will pass a hearing test and we can really begin to work with him on his speech. His appointment is next Tuesday; I'll be working, so Garry will be taking him to that appointment.

Quinn is 5 months old and growing out of his clothes faster than he can wear them. He's his usual happy self and has recently decided that sharing a bed with us doesn't work for him. We pulled the co-sleeper back out and he's much happier in there, so maybe I can finally get some good sleep without being woken up a million times by little feet and hands poking me because he's fidgety. He babbles non-stop and we're slowly starting him on solids, as he's definitely hungry for some "real" food. I'm starting to think that he has seasonal allergies, since he keeps having these episodes of massive congestion every time the weather changes. If he does, he inherited it from daddy!

All in all, life in the Morrow family is pretty good. I'll try and get some recent pictures uploaded and posted so I can show off my little men!
