The Viewing




Today was the viewing for my Pawpaw. They had him made up really nice. It was a long and emotional day but everyone actually did well. We all held up remarkably well under the circumstances. Especially my mom. I know she is very sad. But I was surprised at how well she did. I wish my brother and husband had been able to make the trip with us but I know it could not be helped. I am just glad that he got to see my brother last week while they were in Mississippi. It was crazy seeing some relatives I have not really seen since my Granny's funeral in 1998. Before that I had not seen them since elementary school. That is what happens when relatives live far away. You lose touch or you never really get to know them. You hear names but that is about it.

Logan did ok....at first. He was happy when we got there cuz we stuck a bottle in his mouth. After that it was a full time job for everyone involved to try and keep him happy. He has been completely out of his element this week, poor thing. He has been passed around so much he doesn't know what to do. He is just pooped. He screamed and cried and all that good stuff for a lot of the 3 hours we were there. He sucked his first bottle down in record time. I think it was 2 minutes. 30 seconds for the first 2 ounces. That boy is a pig!!! He was so tired and was so fighting sleep. It made me so sad to see him so upset. He finally had enough and just passed completely out in Nana's arms. But we did get to pose for a sweet mommy and logey snapshot in between fits!!!

I am so drained right now. I really should have been in bed like 2 hours ago. But we ate dinner late at Cracker Barrel and I just can't go to bed on a full tummy. That is also when my acid reflux kicks in and I am just not in the mood to deal with it tonight. I hope Logan sleeps through the night as he has been for the last month. Please Logey? For mommy?
