Re: Roll Call

  • I'm having a "poor me" day. Still not used to not getting all the attention, I guess. I also feel very under-appreciated as a wife, mother and daughter. Sigh. Mini vent over.

    Nothing really new with Aubrey. She's getting less fussy by the day though, thankfully.
    I think LO looks just like me. I pulled out a pic of me at 1mo and I could have sworn it was a pic of Aubrey!! I was a fatass baby so me at 1mo = Aubrey today at 8w lol.

  • We've had lazy day here.  We all took 2 hour naps this afternoon, which was really nice.  'm going to try to do all the feedings on my own tonight so DH can rest.  He starts back to school on Tuesday.  He only helps me diaper change and burp anyway, so I can do it on my own.  I just like having some help, 

    Linus is doing good.  I think he is finally starting to BF better on the right side and not tear me up in the process.

    I really don't think Linus looks like either of us.  I thought the same thing about Landon too.  I think Linus looks a lot like Landon as a baby though.  The only difference is the all the dark hair on Linus.  Landon was bald until he was a year and now Landon is blonde.

  • I finally got out to the grocery store and to Target today while DH watched LO.  LO had a pretty bad pooping discomfort day but was otherwise decently behaved.  I dread the 7am-12pm block every morning because that's when he seems to be in the most pain when he poops (not constipated) and won't sleep, fusses when he eats, etc.  I can't figure out if it's anything I'm eating.

    We did get a lot of good smiles out of him today and he seemed to really enjoy my singing to him, which I find amusing because I'm not a particularly talented singer.

    LO totally looks like a little squirrel.  He's really cute.  Except his hair is falling out so he's starting to look like a little old man.  Ha.

  • Our little family of three headed out to MH's Grandparent's beach house for our first overnight stay with LO.My days of packing lightly are officially over, who would have thought tiny little babies would require so much for a one night stay?

    Julian is a pretty good mix of both of us but most closely resembles my brother with a hint of my FIL.

  • We did a ton of yard work today. We pulled out 8 bushes and tomorrow we are going to put them all through the shredder. Colton was such a good boy all day, he just sat in his bouncer and enjoyed the great day. I am pretty sure I wasn't even involved in making our son he is an exact copy of my husband.

  • It was a pretty good day.  Went a looked for the hubsters Father's Day gift....gonna keep looking.  He got me a diamond ring for Mother's Day and sent me on a scavenger hunt to find it, so I need to make sure I make his day special too....not just because of what he did for me but because I want to make sure he knows how special he is.  Anyways, I left Target with nothing which almost never happens. 

    Isaac and I really getting the nursing thing down.  I'm starting to heal and he's starting to turn his nose up at the bottle.  The little man only wants to nurse.....which is awesome!

    Isaac came into this world looking like his dad as an adult.  Recently he has started to look more like me according to my mother and husband....I think so too. 

    He doesn't really look like a bear but he gets so made when nursing isn't going well and he bats at me like an angry bear cub....plus his temper in general reminds me of an angry bear.  I refer to him as "Bear" "Momma's Bear" and "Isaac Bear" when I talk to him.

  • Hi ladies! I've missed you all! I hope the cable company can come and fix the line (half of our development is without cable because the electric company accidentally dug up and disconnected the cable instead of the underground power lines they were supposed to be replacing. WTF is that?) in a timely manner. It's been a week now. We went to a friend's house for a picnic today, and now I'm having a Harry Potter Marathon while James is at work and Patrick is asleep.

    Patrick looks exactly like me. Or at least that's what every one says. I don't see it, really. I think he looks like, well, like Patrick.

  • Oh my goodness what a weekend! We have been at the sil's house since sat am. Overnights away from home are rough. Thank goodness she had a lot if what we would need. It was 104 yesterday and 95 degrees today. So freaking hot! Jack looks like a tiny little Kyle! We joke that jack has more hair but other than his hair and his feet he lOoks identical to Kyle. Sometimes it males me a little crazy because people will say things like was his mom even their when he was made!?? So I was pleasantly surprised when this weekend his sister and mom said they thought he was looking a little like me!

  • We went to breakfast with friends and David did great! I nursed him in the restaurant and it was easy for my first NIP experience. Then we took a walk next to lake Ponchartrain, and he nursed in the ring sling the whole time! What a piglet. Went to Old Navy afterwards and got some clothes that actually fit me, took a long nap at home, and watched Wall-E and Tron. And David just woke up from sleeping 6 hours!! I think David is a good mix of both of us. If you look at my baby pictures he favors me, but he has DH's eyes, facial expressions, and mannerisms. He got my olive skin which is great, and DH's hands and feet.

  • Hello! We had a nice cookout at my parent's house - Liam slept 3 hours straight, it was fabulous. Liam is all my family - MIL has said I have some strong German genes. He's an identical twin of my little brother as a baby, it's the weirdest thing!
  • We're having a weird night, Evie seems to be off for some reason. She's not crying, or even fussing really, she's just been... restless I guess. She took longer than usual to go down, then only slept for like 2 hours (which is short for her first stretch of the night) and now she just can't seem to go down for a decent stretch of sleep. I've been side nursing a lot lately, and I feel like she's not as efficient that way- maybe she's not filling up her belly enough or something. Evie looked a lot like Eric at first, but she resembles both of us pretty equally now. But her gorgeous baby hair? That's all from me. :)

    We went to a friend's for a cookout and Andrew was a perfect angel. He slept for the first half and sat in my lap all content and looking around the rest of the time. I was so proud of him. And there's no question - he is all his daddy.

  • eh. we had an ok day.  took dd to church alone, since dh was working all day.  she had been sleeping through services all along, but i guess now as she gets older and is awake more that won't happen.  she let out a howl during a quiet portion of the service, and also decided to let loose with the poop she'd been holding in for a few days.  loudly.  then we went to my best friend's bbq, where she did ok for a while, but when we went outside for a few minutes she absolutely lost it.  it was pretty warm, and this baby does not want to be warm.  even in the shade, with a fan blowing around her.  so we went back in and it took her an hour to calm down.  we left, got back to our hot apartment, where she melted down yet again. i put her in her tub until the water got too cold, since she loooooooves the bath, and when i took her out it was straight back to the fussing.  when dh called to say he was leaving work i told him to hurry up, because i was really low on patience, and of course by the time he walked in she was asleep in her chair.  i can never win.

    she looks just like my husband.  she has my hands and feet. and a very deep cleft under her nose, which is also mine.
