Re: ~~Mommy & M2B Monday~~
LOs Age(s): 5 weeks
Best part of your week? We started giving her Zantac to help her reflux and it's night and day. She is just the most content and alert baby now. I'm so happy that she's feeling better
Worst part of your week? She hates taking the Zantac (it tastes awful). She cries and spits it out. I feel so mean
Milestones? She's having more and more smiles... I'm not sure if they're purposeful yet, but I love seeing them regardless

Already Mommies:
LOs Age(s): 4 years old.
Best part of your week? Lexi has gotten an interest in boxing/kickboxing. We actually bought her a robot boxing bag and 4 oz gloves from Toys R Us for her to play around with. She was really going at it last night.
Worst part of your week? She was fighting her bedtime the last few nights. She also has a habit of grabbing snacks from the cabinet before lunch/dinner time so she's not eating a full meal.
Milestones? I had a parent teachers conference this morning to see how she's doing in school. She's doing absolutely amazing, reaching most of her milestones for her age, and is even excelling in some areas. Her teacher says she's very talkative and her language skills are amazing. She even said that I'm raising her right - makes me feel good as a parent knowing that she's doing well.
