My mood while writing this blog: sad but happy

Okay ladies....I am late with the update again this month (been so busy though)

Jayden is doing well - he has a cold at the moment and his teeth are cutting through (none have come through yet - but im thinking very soon) he will be all happy playing and smiling and then he will scream in pain - my poor little man! He is developing very well - can sit on his own for about 5-10min's, talks and screams with his excitment???? thats his new thing LOL - anyone elses little one doing that, he also loves to bounce and rock, and when you pick him up and carry him - he tries to climb to my shoulder LOL, if you lay him flat on his tummy he tries to crawl and you can see his bum and legs working but I dont think he has figured out he needs to move his arms as well - it's cute though, he is still nuring and eating 3-4 solid meals a day - he loves his food!

My MIL is currently looking after him - she is doing me a favour but Im pretty sure she is going through menapouse so she is not her usualy self - moody, not using her common sense, depressed and so on....I am having so much drama's with her but I just keep telling myself she is only looking after him for another 3 weeks and then he is off to daycare - yup thats right Jayden has to go to daycare.....what we had planned for him at the start is not going to plan and things need to be changed....I was very sad and upset when I realised he would be going to daycare but after seeing the daycare centre - Im okay with it....It's a very nice and clean place, the go from ages 6months - 6years old and have different rooms for different age groups, the provide food and diapers - so I only need to provide his clothes and breast milk, he will only be there for 8.30am - 4.30pm Mon- Fri, they each have their own high chairs and cots and I figured with him mising around with other babies - it would be a good thing for him and because DH is currently studying and not working (but he finally got a job yesturday - PRAISE GOD) he qualify for some government assistance so we will be paying $140.00 a week for Jayden's day care but every 3 months we get half of it back....so really we are only paying like $70.00 a week and every 3 months we get a big lump sum back - which I plan on putting in a savings account....He will be starting daycare on the 7th of September.

Well as I had previously said DH was out of a job and decided he wanted to doing his fitness course to become a qualified fitness / personal trainer - after a lot of stressing and prayers - he got blessed with a Afternoon shift job doing what he was doing before I had Jayden....the pay is really good - about $29.00 an hour the only downside is we wont see each other much only on weekends - but I guess you have to do what you have to do....he is still going to continue with his course which is every Monday and every Friday - so both those days will be very hard for him because he would have to go to school and then straight to work (please keep him in your prayers that God would give him the strength to keep going)

Other than that things are going great - please keep my family and me in your prayers as I will your's!!! Hope you are all doing well - Lots of love, hugs and kisses!!!

P.S - New pictures of Jayden are up (first 2 pages on my profile) - enjoy!!!
