Re: PG/Mom Check-In

  • Zoe had a follow up appt at Shriner's last week and her hips look great! She still keeps her legs in the position of the harness a lot though. :)

    She is growing up so fast, I can't believe it. She is such a smiley little girl and has such a laid back personality. I think I fall more in love with her every day. Big Smile

    On Wednesday we go to CT for a week to visit my in laws, who haven't met her yet (with the exception of MIL). We have a direct flight up there and I hope she does as well on this trip as she did to CA! It's so nice that it's not across the country!

  • Is it bad to say that my son is kind of making me regret getting my tubes tied??  Oh my goodness he is a dream baby.  Very calm & chill - I call him a little stoner lol.  He also only wakes once at night around 2:30 to eat and goes right back to sleep until 6:30 or 7.  Aaaaaand I probably just jinxed it, haha.  He has been an amazing sleeper since we've been home, total opposite of his sister.  Some of you may remember how miserable I was when she was an infant.  She apparently did not get the memo that she needed to sleep for more than 45 minutes at a clip.  Aside from that, we are all doing fantastic.  I'm still waiting for Jax's cord stump to fall off so I can give him a real bath.  Also today marks my first full day alone with both of them.  DH went back to work today :-(  No more tag-teaming for us, I am going to have to be a multi-tasking ninja :-)
  • starting to feel braxton hicks.. no pain but my tummy gets really hard during it

    also ive been able to feel like baby body parts through my tummy.. it seems to be trying to stretch out more and its so funny when i feel a hard part stick out and i can tell its a foot or a rear :)

    oh and the most exciting news- we are getting a new(er) car! mine is a piece of junk with like 170k miles on it and loads of problems.. my husbands is not much better.. so we will hopefully complete the sale tomorrow (from a private party) anyways im super excited about it and relieved we will actually have a reliable vehicle to tote our new baby around town :)

    Kristina, I can totally relate with you on this one. DD2 is very laid-back. Whereas Juliana was colicky and high maintenance, Sophia is relaxed. Juliana was also a crappy sleeper; we had to sleep train at 6 months. At 3 months, Sophia puts herself to sleep and is getting up 1-2x at night. She's definitely making us want a 3rd one.

    GOD!!

    Congratulations!!  Ya know, I was reading your blog last night and thinking, "she's been kind of slacking lately, maybe she's got something exciting going on" LOL I kind of wondered and I am thrilled to say the least!  How exciting!!  happy & healthy 9 months to you!

  • Thanks, ladies! I'm pretty psyched. :) We got to hear the heartbeat at 6w2d and everything and it was pretty much the most awesome thing ever in the history of ever.

    Kristina, I know I've been slacking on the blog! I also picked up a FT temp job in addition to my PT jury consulting right around when I got my BFP, which has just been so cruel because I am EXHAUSTED. I keep saying to myself "I have to blog, or people are going to know something is up!" but I'm just too tired to really care. Sorry, blog!

  • Kennedy is doing great.  She's over 14 pounds, completely off Lasix and will be weaning from her BP med starting next week.  She's really close to being able to sit on her own.  Her PT is really happy with how well she's doing.  We've also started tummy time again.  She's doing great, considering she couldn't do it at all for 6 weeks! 

    We leave next week for our first big vacation with her.  We're going to VA, NC, SC and GA.  She'll be meeting most of my family, and her cousins!  I'll also get to show her off to our friends up there and H's co-workers.  I'm a little worried about everything we need for 19 days, but we'll manage.  We even traded in my Santa Fe for a 2011 Explorer just so we'd have more room!!!!  Okay - so we've been wanting a new SUV for awhile, this was just a good excuse. Big Smile

    This is Maisy too! She is so content and easy going AND a fantastic sleeper. Beckett didn't sleep until he was a year old, and Maisy has been going 10 hours since 2 months. She is so joyful all the time, it has made us really want a 3rd. Although we are probably pushing our luck and should quit while we are ahead, I still really want one more.

    I would have said the same thing when Ezra was an infant.  A year ago I thought I'd be pregnant again by now.  He was so mellow and happy and almost never cried.  Then he started crawling and then walking and mobility gave him a new lease on life.  I now have an IUD. Stick out tongue

  • We are great! Sleep kind of suck these days. But I guess that about it. The rest of the month is going to be super busy. We have our 4D ultrasound, maternity pics, and 6, yes SIX bithday parties to attend. 

    My baby shower was on Saturday (I know, a little early). Everything went really well and we got lots of goodies. =)

    Chloe's nursery is pretty much done. We received the last decal we ordered from Etsy today, so once we put them over the crib, we are pretty much set!

  • Congratulations, MrsMEW!! 

    We're doing really well.  DH and I moved to our new place in the suburbs this weekend.  Now I'm working on getting everything unpacked and set up.  So excited to have a room in our place that we can call the nursery :)

    We had an appointment today too.  It was just a heartbeat check, but everything sounded great.  We're coming to FL next week to visit family and my parents are taking us for a gender ultrasound next Thursday.  I can't wait to find out if LO is a boy or girl!!!
