My poor baby boy. He is teething and has tummy problems. Last night we were awake with him writhing and screaming in pain. I think he is allergic to oats or something. Everytime I eat granola or oatmeal his tummy freaks out which is super wierd considering oats are supposed to be one of the gentlest grains. Anyhow, I am tired and he has urped up about 10 times in the past hour. At least he's not screaming anymore. He's actually pretty happy.
We went to my family reunion in Logan this weekend. It was actually a lot more pleasant than I expected it to be and I was in a bathing suit!!! I didn't even feel self conscious either. It was amazing! Especially considering than all of my cousins, uncles, aunts and siblings are super-model gorgeous. I've never seen so many beautiful people in one house! I think I just expected to feel so inferior, that when everyone was cool- some of them pregnant, many of them with 4 or more kids- I just enjoyed being with them. I think it helped that my Aunt L wasn't there. I love her to death and she is beautiful. She has weight issues from a thyroid problem and fairly often sulks around with this look on her face like, 'I know I'm the ugly one...go ahead and hate me.' My dad has more than once told me I was the 'L of our family'. Which pisses me off because one, it means he thinks I'm fat and not as pretty as everyone else, and two, L is wonderful and does not deserve to be thought of that way by her stuck up big brother!! It has also tarnished my relationship with her a little bit. And I hate that I don't like to be around her so much anymore because I have let my father's opinion of us both poison me. She now reminds me of what my father thinks of me. It sucks. Anyway.... my poor little brother got a concussion from a paintball to the head from 10 feet. He is doing better now but he scared us for a while there. Other than that, The experience was quite lovely.

3 more days!! Then we are off to Colorado and blessed vacation time. I'm so excited!!
