Happy Bloggiversary or some junk

Yup, been on the net for over a year now. I know some of you are suprised to see this site still up when you click to get here, and I'm one of them. The holidays were a blast, and I'll have to confer with Mary to get our stories straight as to what happened. New Year's was/is/will continue to be fuzzy for me. I'll give you more details later.

My mother has called me to let me know that I am falling behind with the photo's and stories of William. She's right, and I'm to blame. Again, I'll have to confer with Mary about William's happenings of late, but some things I can tell you all about.

He's got Cholic! And if that isn't how you spell it, I don't care! Seriously, poor guy acts as though he's got a rough case of the bends. He does stomach crunches, farts, belches, screams, and cries when we feed him. This makes dinner time not so fun. We tried the gentle ease stuff that is pre digested. It gave him green poo about 3 to 5 times a day. This stuff didn't come off. All a wetwipe did was push it around. This eased his symptoms for a week or so, then it got worse.

In desperation we tried soy formula. It was going great till he downed 4 ounces of said bean juice, then commenced to spray this nasty liquid all over me. He did the same thing to Mary twice now! I am talking a scene from the Excorsist people. I'm amazed his head wasn't spinning in circles when this happened!

Oh yes, I forgot to mention that Mary has Strep Throat, and I have Bronchitis. I haven't slept more than 3 hours at a stretch for the last 3 days, and currently am up with William. He has this lighted noise making, thing. It makes noises into songs. Noises such as frogs croaking, babies cooing, birds chirping, and it sets them to tunes such as...

Good Bye To Broadway
Eyes of Texas
Big Rock Candy Mountain
Farmer in the Dale
Chop Sticks
It Ain't Gonna Rain No More
The Entertainer

Mary is in bed, William is under the devil lights, the scary music is playing, and I swear to GOD himself I heard voices coming out of that toy. Could have been the dog snoring, or the cough syrup I took. Anyway, he's up and driving me crazy. Mary and I did a little Rock Paper Scissors and I lost.

This posting sucks for multiple reasons:

1. No pics of my son. Deal, I don't have the patience to deal with it tonight, so you'll have to wait.

B. I'm exhausted and rambling. This would normally be alright since my ramblings entertain me to some degree. Tonight on the other hand, they feel forced and whiney to me. I'd delete this entire post but I've invested too much typing to do that. I'm lazy and pretty screwed up on cold meds.

III. I'm just not in to it. I'm sorry but ya'll will have to wait till I'm feeling the spirit of doing this again. Could be a day or two, could be a month or more. I'll try to get some pics of William up on his photo page, but I'm just not in a blogging mood so far this year.
