I got our activity table and a few other toys out of storage yesterday. She's trying to pull up pretty consistently -often just to her knees. The activity mat will come down this week.
Our daycare teacher talked to me this morning about starting table foods. I'm not a BLW mama. Its something that I'm not good at. But, if they want to do it during the day, then so be it. I won't stop them. She has been doing puffs at home with success. Perhaps too much success. She won't be content just playing with toys in her high chair anymore

@MamaG: I finally got around to giving daycare a list of 'approved' table foods that he has already had. He LOVES food and its the easiest way for me to keep him occupied/happy lately if I'm busy cooking/cleaning! Last night a couple slices of watermelon kept him happy for an hour! Corn on the cob and bananas are great for that too. The down side is the HUGE mess he makes.

Hope everyone had a great 4th! I'm still on vacation. However, after this vacation, I'm solidly in the 2 and through camp. It's been a great vacation, but I honestly don't see myself going through the baby phase again.

@FaithFertility: Glad the crib is going well!
Forgot to mention this weekend I noticed E's getting his first tooth, can't really see it yet but I can feel it poking through. He doesn't seem too phased other than chewing on everything!

@josina: Yay! Excited for him!
@FaithFertility: That's great! I just love G

@BandDmommy: I love seeing your pictures too! I'm planning on taking K to Disneyland next month, but I'm a little usure how the day is going to go. We're only planning 1 day so I will a little more low key, but hopefully we survive!

@BandDmommy: hope you're having a nice time!!!
I keep going back and forth about number 3. Days like today at the beach by myself with the kids....doable....but man add a third? Go through the first 6 months again? Hmmmmm.

@BandDmommy: @winniebee: Our vacation made me feel the same way - like I just want to move on from the baby phase so we have more flexibility to do more fun things. Now I'm home and it seems different. I'm honestly agonizing over this decision. I don't want to do it again but I want my kids to have more siblings. I can't stop thinking about it!
@winniebee: super mom with two kids at the beach by yourself!

@FaithFertility: So glad to hear that the crib is going well. I hope tonight is good!
@josina: Aw - teeth! Glad he's not too bothered

I worked overnight the past two nights so I haven't been with the kids much. Came home today and noticed that Jack has two more teeth poking through and two others that you can see!! Funny because the two that are coming through are the top left middle and the one next to it (top left lateral incisor) rather than the two top middle. He already has his two bottom teeth. He's going to be a giant baby who hardly even rolls over but has a big ole mouth full of teeth

Ugh my MIL strikes again. She's stealing photos and sharing them all over FB. Grrrrrrrr
nectarine / 2210 posts
@BandDmommy: my dad does that too and it really annoys me! I have most of my privacy settings set so if he shares my pics only my friends can see it. But then he'll share my profile pic and all types of ransoms I've never heard of will start commenting on it!
pomelo / 5298 posts
@BandDmommy: Thankfully my parents aren't savvy. My sister shares, but I don't mind. And my MIL used to tag herself in every photo, so I blocked auto tagging. MIL isn't around anymore so that issue is gone. What annoys me is my Dad likes to comment all the time. Half of his comments don't make sense or are something like Grandma called you last night, call her back. Ugh.

@MrsF: TEETH! I forgot to check K's top gum this morning. She's certainly working on some top teeth. I remember C's top teeth coming in out of order too.

@BandDmommy: ughhhh annoying
@MamaG: my mom does the same...."call me" "lets go swimming"......lol

@MrsF: Last night was good
Actually I'm very proud of her! She woke at 1 talking and then silence I looked and she flipped to her belly and out until 5 :))))
At 5 I feel her and out again until 8!!!!!!

I'm keeping up with you guys, I promise!
Nothing new to report here- sleep still sucks. Last night was awful.. I cried because all I want is to be able to sleep. haha- I kind of feel like I'm back in the newborn days.

@whenoceansrise: ohhhh no!!!!! I'm so sorry!!!!!
We had a night like that the other night again and I was/am so fearful it is heading south again!
It's so hard!!!!
I can't imagine this and working, so your doing great!

@FaithFertility: Whatever works K gets a bottle in her room before sleep. She often falls asleep while drinking it. With C, we didn't remove that from the routine until we got rid of bottles at a year. I think feeding to sleep is fairly common.

@MamaG: Ohhh yeah, I actually LOVE it!!! She cuddles up against me in her little pjs and I just sit and thank god over and over again for her!!!!

@MamaG: @FaithFertility: my dad is like that too! He likes every single thing I do on Facebook even when I'm responding to someone else's post on something he knows nothing about.

@FaithFertility: it's so hard! & today I accidentally left my pump parts at home and my mom is supposed to go get them for me but she hasn't yet... today is no bueno!
eggplant / 11861 posts
@whenoceansrise: can you have a drink at work??? J/k hope the day gets better!!!!
hostess / wonderful grape / 20803 posts
@whenoceansrise: bad day I'm sorry. Sleep is still eh here. I'm just as tired with newborn days as well because now he goes to bed so early I don't catch all of this sleep. He is waking x2 and up at 5:30 for the day. And my 3 year old wakes us up to pee every night. I get 7 hours of fragmented sleep and want to cry at 5:30 am many days.......it will get better.......it will get better.....it will get better.....
nectarine / 2053 posts
@winniebee: I'm sorry! It has to get better eventually, right!?
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@MrsF: Oh~ Ever since her bottom two came in, I've only been looking at the top front! I guess I should look around! I hope you get some rest and quality time in with the kids!
@FaithFertility: Good job! Sigh, I really need to get the ball rolling for K to start sleeping by herself!
@whenoceansrise: Aww! It's okay, one day won't mess it all up! I somehow forgot to wash my parts at home on Sunday, so I was horrified on Monday but thankfully I had those steam bags at work so I quickly washed them and then steamed them and then just waited a lil longer to pump! I hope your mom comes!
@winniebee: That's what I keep saying too! I don't even count how many times K wakes up anymore, probably 2-4, but now sometimes nursing won't appease her so I have to hold her/rock her too.

@snowjewelz: i'm about to miss my second pumping session... i am in pain! i just called my mom and she hasn't even left the lake yet (which is an hour and a half away) so i called a friend who is off work today and she's going to go get them for me.

@whenoceansrise: Noo! Can you hand express into a clean cup while you wait?!
