Re: ~~**~~Infant Check in~~**~~
Infant Age: 29 weeks ~6.5 months
Milestones: She's finally starting to roll! She rolled a few times for my MIL last week, hasn't shown any interest since, but at least I know she can do it! She's doing really well with sitting, too.
Challenges: At her 6mo check-up we got info that there could be potential problems with her vision. Our appointment with a pediatric ophthalmologist confirmed that she is extremely farsighted, and there's a big difference between her two eyes that makes her susceptible to a lazy eye without correction. We have a follow-up in 3 months, at which point we will probably move to glasses and possibly patching the stronger eye for up to a year.
Funny/cute stories: She has started squealing when she laughs, it's so funny. I always nibble on her sides or her legs when I change her diaper, and now she'll start squealing/laughing before I even do it because she's knows it's coming.
QOTW: What is your favorite rainy day activity? Before DD, it would have been just snuggling in bed or on the couch with some soup and a movie/book. Now? Not so much! Haha. Now we just stay in and I try to keep her entertained. She's not a snuggler, so it's a challenge!
Milestones: He's grabbing toys with purpose now and bringing them to his mouth.
Challenges: Tummy time. He suddenly hates it. He's not showing any signs of wanting to roll over, either. I know it's early on that, but I hope he starts to at least kick and roll a little more.
Funny/cute stories: I sing him songs at bedtime after I lay him in his crib. Two nights ago, he started "singing" along with me - cooing/yelling at full volume as I sang. It was all I could do to keep from cracking up, it was so funny.
QOTW: What is your favorite rainy day activity?
Sitting down with a magazine and a cup of coffee. Flipping through magazines feels like such an indulgence lately - I love it.

@LunaBig924 I am sorry for the diagnosis but with catching it early and the patch things will get better soon! How cute with the squeals I can't wait for mine to do that.
@meagpt22 baby smiles are the best and will continue to make your heart melt. Have you tried a carrier like the Moby, mei tai, or ergo? Since LO likes to be held?
@2redtulips I hope LO goes back to look hiking tummy time soon. Mine still hates it. I am not sure I would be able to hold back the laughing if my LO started singing along with me.

Rebecca Ann born 8/31/2014 6lb 1oz 19 inches long 8:55am!!!!
Milestones: She has started laughing more and is lifting her head.more when on tummy time although she will only stand it for a fewinutes at a time.
Challenges: For a few weeks I gave up on her sleeping in bassinet and crib and just let her sleep on my chest at night cause I was so tired I needed sleep. Well for the past few days we have been fully committed to her sleeping in her PNP or crib. She is up to 1 hr increments in her PNP at night and 30 min naps during the day in PNP.
Funny/cute stories: I just love when she coos back at us when we talk to her and her big smiles that gives!
QOTW: What is your favorite rainy day activity? Eating chilli and watching a movie on the couch!

Milestones: He's putting himself to sleep at night now which is amazing. We just hug him and hold him for a few minutes, lay him down, say good night and leave and he plays with his hands or his ears until he falls asleep. I love that kid.
Challenges: He's sad at pre-school again now because between vacation and holidays it's been a few weeks since he's been. Hopefully he'll start to enjoy it again soon. He's going two mornings a week now and will go to 5 after the holidays.
Funny/cute stories: He likes to dance to his toys that play music. He stands there and bounces up and down. It's adorable. He isn't doing it to be cute because he'll do it when no one is watching. He really loves music.
QOTW: What is your favorite rainy day activity?
I like to bake and cook when it's wet and cold.

Milestones: DS has slept in his crib the last 2 nights! He still wakes often to eat but at least the crib transition has gone smoothly so far.
Challenges: I go back to work the Monday after thanksgiving. I'm trying to pump and build up a stash of milk. So far all I have is,40 oz so I'm hoping I can get more by then. Pumping with a baby is hard work! I don't know how the EPers do it, but I'm welcome to suggestions.
Funny/cute stories: I can't think of anything in particular. I think everything he does is cute.
QOTW: What is your favorite rainy day activity? Snuggling under the covers with some good Netflix shows.

Milestones: He's is getting better at pushing his upper body off the ground when doing tummy time. On the verge of giggling - smiling and cooing a TON.
Challenges: Daytime sleeping. He wants to be held all the time. The only time I get a decent nap is in the carseat if we go out to run errands.
Funny/cute stories: He was in his mamaroo yesterday, and I started doing a workout. I was trying to keep him engaged by counting, etc. He was loving it! It was so cute to see him break out in huge smiles and coo back at me while I counted.
QOTW: What is your favorite rainy day activity? I need to come up with some. I was bored out of my mind this week when we couldn't really get out. I would say lay in bed and watch tv, but that gets old quick!
