Hellobee Boards

@Adira: woo hoo!!

@sheskrafty: Great night sleeper! Naps suck for us at day care too.

@ALV91711: I hope it does!

R cut one, if not both, teeth. She won't let me look but her teacher saw this morning.

@ALV91711: 8!

@Adira: Ahhhhh, so amazing! The day we all wait for! So happy for you! Def one to mark down in the baby book!

I totally jinxed myself! K woke up at 2:30 with a poopy diaper but luckily went back to sleep after she ate.

@smurfette: 8 teeth?!?! R is advanced at everything! Glad you made it home safely in the storm.

@adira: so awesome about X saying Mama!!

@travellingbee: that is awesome you are going to make it a year!!

@alv91711: hope Isaac takes a great nap for you! Anything over 15 minutes I am estatic!

50 minute nap! It was nice to have an uninterrupted shower and coffee.

@Smurfette: I hope you aren't too sore from falling. Glad R is ok. Too bad she didn't like the snow. It must be nice to have an extra day at home with her.

@sheskrafty: Glad she went back to sleep easily

Last night Isaac woke at 9 and was awake for almost 2 hours. He is just do tired.

@Adira: my back is hurting still. Day care is closed tomorrow so I am going to be dying for adult conversation by late tomorrow when DH gets home. I think R is bored with me! At least she took 2 good naps today.

My old boss had to get surgery to fix her peeing problem. I have had it happen a couple times. I hope you feel better!!

@Adira: I haven't taken Isaac to play in the snow either and I probably won't this year.

@Smurfette: Good thing your DH will be back tomorrow. Being home for multiple days with a baby and no adult to talk to is rough.

@Adira: so cute!! R won't do it anymore. I swear I don't get her she figures something out and then forgets how to do it.

She slept almost 12 hours!! I hope this keeps up through the weekend. So much spit up this morning though. And she is back to not drinking her bottles. Trying to think of something for us to so today.........

@Adira: I was shocked when I heard and looked at the clock. She doesn't want to walk by herself at all:( I am so excited for her to do it, impatient mom!

@Adira: While I was pregnant, I took personal training sessions at my gym. The trainer said that it's extremely common for women to have that issue pp, and she forces all her trainees to do kegels as part of the workout. You are definitely not alone! I ended up delivering by c-section so it was a non-issue but, I would definitely try different kegel exercises. She swears by them. I hope that a little exercise down there and time will fix the problem! Sorry you have to deal with that!

@Smurfette: I'm so happy you have some unexpected playtime with R this week! Although that drive home in the snow sounded like a real headache! How is your back feeling today? And three cheers for 12 hours of sleep! Pete's sleep has also been awesome the past two nights. 6:30pm-7:00am! Keep it up, babies!

@travellingbee: Definitely sounds a growth spurt! It's crazy how much they can fit into their little bellies!

The other front middle tooth broke through last night. I hope that means he will start sleeping better, we could all use some sleep. That makes 5 teeth!

@Adira: High fives are cute. I get claps for everything I do.

@Smurfette: I find when Isaac learns something new he stops doing other things for a while before picking the old one up again.

We are back from vacation and J did really well overall. My parents threw a party and he was smiling going to everyone esp the ladies! Looks like he has outgrown his stranger anxiety. J has finally mastered crawling and getting to places!! The house is not fully babyproofed yet but luckily J mostly just follows me around the house. Its on my todo list this weekend before he decides to explore on his own! He is also pulling to stand and trying a step or 2.
@ALV91711: Hope he starts sleeping better. Our sleep has taken a hit as well what with the trip and his front tooth coming in. Can't wait for some decent sleep again.
@Smurfette: whatz up with LOs fighting naps? I don't understand I would love the opportunity to take a nap during the day!!
@Adira: Thatz so cute. Does he high fives with others as well on command?

@silver1: Glad your vacation was a success. Yay for crawling!!
@ALV91711: Progress! Hope you enjoyed sleeping in.

I am sick, blah! And it doesn't look like R is going to walk by my bday(We'd), boo!! Our overachiever is getting lazy

@Smurfette: I hope your feeling better soon, being sick is no fun. Maybe R is saving walking for a bday present and will start on your birthday?!

@Adira: woo hoo!!

@ALV91711: of course I complain and she took more steps today. Just once 3-4 ethos and the other times 1-2. She wanted to walk holding onto my finger more.
We got rid of the sunken hot tub in the deck. Put it on craigslist and someone took it. DH, my Dad, and brother filled the hole in the deck. So we are getting ready for the party!!!!

@silver1: glad your vacation went well and yay for crawling/standing!

@Adira: how exciting! we've been getting more walker action lately too - I think he's finally getting that it's fun to use.

@ALV91711: hope you get to sleep in! That sounds like a rough day

@Smurfette: she's going to be walking so soon! Maybe she's practicing so she can surprise you on your birthday!

Today we went to the mall to shop a little - I usually hate shopping for jeans but I needed a size smaller so that made me super excited (of course it's not close to being back in my old jeans but I'm just excited to finally see some progress) Liam gobbled up a bunch of coconut curry chicken when we stopped for lunch. I love watching him try new foods and enjoy them!

For those of you that work outside the home are you taking LOs birthday off work? I was trying to think of something fun we could do that day together.

Isaac has figured out how to get down from standing over the last couple days which is awesome.

Something that is not so awesome, he can sit up from laying on his back. He started today and loves to do it during diaper changes. As if they weren't hard enough already.
