Re: Weekly update
I guess I'll go first.
Annabelle had her first night away from DH and I. It was nice for us, we had planned on sleeping in and relaxing on Sunday, but I was up bright and early and was ready to pick up Annabelle.
Annabelle also had a second infant hearing test done last week, which she passed with flying colors. She's been scooting on her back (backward crawling as DH likes to call it). She has also started to take a few crawls forward and then rolls.
Let me see if I can find a new picture.
You can see in post below we have just started having some sleeping issues, but other than that John is great! He loves to be sans-clothes (probably diaper too, but we wont go there). He is such a happy little guy, smiling all the time (with his hands in his mouth) and laughing. As much as I love my job, I miss him more and could just spend all day making him laugh.
I just added a new pic to my siggy today
Sean's said his first word recently.....It's "Hi". I know its a real word and not babble b/c he waves while saying it. The other morning the cat walked in the room and I said "Look Sean, there's the kitty!" and he says "Hi Kitty!" I almost died. Of course I can't get him to repeat it.
Aww! Love it. Love the new siggy picture too.
Ava is WALKING!
She also uses Sean's word "hi" everywhere we go..she says it to everyone.
The little stinker is not sleeping through the night yet (and she will be 14 months old tomorrow).
I took a great picture of her and my son over the weekend, I will try to download and post it tonight.
Thanks for reminding me- Collin needs to do his next month!
Collin is weighing in at a whopping 18 lbs. We go Thurs for his 4 month check, but he was n the 95th percentile for weight, so I think he is still on his curve.
He has been fussy the last couple days and doing this sucking in on his bottom lip, so I am thinking the teething may have begun.
He is working so hard to roll over (he's really close) and sit up (no where near close but don't tell him that.
And a couple pics...
Wow 18lbs. That's great!
Love the pictures!
I added a new pic in my sig; but its very large!
We had a big milestone on Mothers Day - DD called me Mommy - it was very exciting!! She did it twice that day, but hasn't repeated since!
She's just running around everywhere and exploring non stop!
I LOVE that picture--she is so adorable!
Nora has become obsessed with out dog recently. She just lights up whenever she comes into the room.
I also got my first present "made by Nora" yesterday from daycare. It's a flower pot with pics they've taken of her over the past few months. I love it!
That's so awesome that she called you Mommy and picked the perfect day to do it!! YAY!
Let's see.
Ren is doing his toddler thing. Picking up new words every day. He is running everywhere now and is a pro with a fork and spoon. We are getting ready to start on a regular cup soon. He loves his little sister and thinks she is very entertaining
Ciel is rolling over from tummy to back. She can also roll back to tummy. She is 23 inches long and 11 1/2 pounds so that is about 3 inches and 3 1/2 pounds in 2 months
Our doctor says she has a feeling that Ciel is going to be an overachiever and that we should be prepared for her to walk early.
Found you guys!!!! Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!
Paige is getting her 13th tooth this week!! We start daycare June1 and i'm kind of excited!!
Baby Andrew is here!!
I delivered Andrew on Tuesday at GBMC and did not become a c-section statistic as many mommas on here are concerned about! I went in for induction Tuesday at 5 am because of chronic hypertension and had him at 7:40pm. He weighed 7 lbs 4 oz and is 20.5 inches long.
The care at GBMC was fantastic. My doctors (CSOBGYN) hovered around all day - there are 3 doctors in the practice and I saw them all numerous times....they were itching to deliver a baby! In the end my doctor delivered me since she was on call for the night. Only 30 minutes of pushing after 13 hours of labor!
We came home last night after our required 24 hours...I am feeling great and saw no reason to stay! We rested well last night and relaxing nicely!
Aw your DS is adorable! Congrats! I also delivered there on a Tuesday night at 7:47pm with Dr. Erdman and DD's stats were similar...I had the hypertension too but no induction...she just stripped my membranes the night before because of increasingly high BP and I went into labor the next day at 37 weeks, 6 days. So happy you had a great experience with the hospital and the practice...I loooove Dr. Erdman; that's awesome that she was the one to deliver you! Hope you are settling in well with your newborn!
Amelia is doing great! She is 10 weeks and just getting bigger everyday! At her 2 month appt...she weighed 11.4 and was 22 in. long. I am pretty sure she is even bigger now! She started really smiling at around 8 weeks and it's so much fun going into her room every morning and saying "good morning!" and watching her smile so big. She rolled over tummy to back 3 times at 7 weeks, but hasn't done it since. A fluke I guess. She has been sleeping through the night since 5 weeks and it's heaven! She transitioned to her room and her crib at 8 weeks. She also coos and makes noises that sound like "gah", "byeeeeee", "hiiiiiiiii" all the time and I just love it!
I have a lot of anxiety lately with having to go back to work on the 28th. At least it's a Friday and then a holiday weekend. I feel like I am just getting the hang of staying home and caring for DD and now I have to leave. MIL and then my mom are watching her all summer and then daycare starts 9/1. Plus, in addition to going back to my full time job, I have been putting off starting a part time job in a private practice because I can't stand the thought that two nights a week, I won't see her all day and when I get home, she will be in bed. But it's a step in the right direction for what I want to do and we could sure use the money.
Ada will be six months next week. I can't wait to bring her to the Dr. to see exactly how big she is.
We moved her to the crib this week, because she was beginning to outgrow the co-sleeper, and she has done really well.
