    E learned to clap yesterday. 

    She is also sick with a low fever and I am hoping she is feeling better soon. No sleep for mama the last few nights!

    Update:
    This week, Henry had two nights where he slept for a longer stretch than he ever has before!  The first time he was not a happy camper when he woke up, and had a hard time nursing and getting back to sleep, but the second time, last night - he was awesome!  Wouldn't mind at all if he keeps this up...

    Also, Henry is going to try a bottle for the first time today.  I tried pumping fo for the first time last night and got a couple of ounces, so C is going to try to give him a bottle when she gets home tonight - wish us luck!

  • Grayson is our quirky kid. He often is found wearing his orange Wonder Pets gardening gloves (to run errands, to watch tv, to ride in the car, etc...) Last week on the way to school (they were having a sprinkler party), he told me "I can't wait to see the other children's bathing suits. I think they are going to be beautiful." :rotfl: L and I won't be surprised if he turns out to be our little gay boy. <img class=" title="Heart" /> He is very rule bound and we often have to remind him who is in charge. He loves puzzles, his new kid camera,playing outside, "reading", and negotiating the rules (he might be a gay lawyer! <img class=" title="Wink" /> )

    Carter is our affectionate jokester. He is forever (spontaneously) telling us how much he loves us, giving us hugs, and kisses. He is a thinks he is so funny (and loves to share potty humor...oy.) He LOVES to play pretend (pirates, Imaginext, GeoTrax) and gets very frustrated when Gray doesn't want to play with him (Gray isn't really into pretend play which causes much friction.) He tells elaborate stories to Grayson (when he'll let him) and LOVES Cars and Buzz Lightyear. He wants to be Buzz when he grows up.

    And as much as I hate the days where they are constantly bickering/picking on each other, I love that they are more and more independent and have fabulous conversations. <img class=" title="Heart" />

    Lilypie Kids Birthday tickers
  • Since "Free for All" is listed...I will say that today is my DW's birthday and I TOTALLY blanked on it Tongue Tied! AYE! I wish I could blame it on the kids, but that is just downright wrong. (However, I do blame odors in the room on them Embarrassed). C, please FORGIVE ME!

    As far as the kiddos go, from Mama's perspective things seem to be improving...a bit...with them. My little french fry (DD) is still having choking episodes, and my little man has this really dry cough that is concerning me.

    I love that they are smiling a whole bunch now and how they track C when she enters or leaves the room. I must admit that they are getting big, especially little man. He has practically grown out of everything...including the rocker he sleeps in. Our french fry is also growing like a weed...amazing to watch.

    I am sure C will be updating with photos!

  • Happy Birthday Christine!!!Cake

    My little Jelly Bean is doing good.  She had her first vaccinations today and was a trooper.  She old cried a bit at the end but it wasn't a 'pain' cry, rather a 'why-am-i-laying-here-naked-while-you-stare-at-me' cry.  K and I knew she was getting longer but I didn't expect a 1.5 inch growth spurt since her last visit 3 weeks ago.  No wonder she fits in the 3-6 months onesies better than most of her 0-3 month.

    All in all life is good.  We're prepping for our trip home.  I'm still nervous about flying with her solo but I figure I can do anything for 9 hours.

  • Kylie is still growing on track!  When we went in Monday (to the specialist) she measured 4lbs 10oz and fell into the 50th percentile on most measurements...except her legs!  OMG...I am never going to find pants for this child, she is still measuring a week and a few days ahead in the leg area and falls into the 76th percentile.  The u/s tech said had it only happened once (she was ahead at the 29w u/s too) they could chalk it up to a fluke but since it was twice now they are wondering how long she is going to be...We are still breech, and by breech I mean head all the way under my ribs and bum right on my cervix all stretched out.  We asked the regular OB today and he said 37 weeks we will make plans based on her size, my cervix, and whether she has turned or not...Oh and she has hair already!  It was so cool, you could see the little strands coming off of her head in the u/s pics.  If I knew how to post pics I would totally do it because I was just amazed!

  • Happy Birthday Christine!!

    No picture post for me, but if I had one it would be of my cap, gown and hood for my graduation this Sunday when I'll get my MA degree.

    After that it's a week in Hawaii, focusing on my dou.la business and teaching and planning a trip to England and Scotland.

  • Happy Birthday Christine!!!  Congratulations JoySeattle!!!

     

    No picture yet...but we have our induction scheduled for Monday, if the baby doesn't decide to come earlier.  Kel was 4cm, almost totally effaced and the doctor could feel the baby's head at our appointment on Monday so we are hoping not to need to be induced.
