Re: ~~Mommy & M2B Monday~~
LOs Age(s): 15 months
Best part of your week? L is starting to laugh at himself. He will do something or attempt to do something and find himself hilarious. This equals him busting out in laughter and then I laugh at him, which makes him showoff even more. It is adorable!!
Worst part of your week?
Milestones? L is trying to jump. He bends down and then stands straight up. His feet do not leave the floor yet but he is trying.
My Goodreads Read Shelf
* After 22 months and 2 failed IUIs, we finally got our BFP *
DS delivered naturally at 41w6d on 4/18/14
LOs Age(s): 8 months 3 weeks
Best part of your week? K's swim class!!! She did awesome and it was so fun splashing around with her
Worst part of your week? Probably not the wost thing, but K has been refusing her second solids at day care for the whole week. I think it was to do with her teething though.
Milestones? First swim class and she started waving!
LOs Age(s): 2 years
Best part of your week? getting the house almost 100% complete of all renos so we can sell this mo fo.
Worst part of your week? bleeding last week and being in limbo waiting to find out my betas aka, likely miscarrying. Also, my hormones feel like they are crashing today and I have a headache and I'm incredibly teary.
Milestones? My kid hit the terrible twos hard this weekend (either that or my patience is thin after this last week), and I need winter to be over so he can run around outside. His behavious is a product of being held captive indoors but refusing to wear appropriate winter clothes/boots so we can actually go out. Bring on spring.

Best part of your week? Tagged along on dh's business trip. And it was so cute to have the boys there
Worst part of your week? E was awake a lot at night when we were away but it was all so unfamiliar to him, I don't blame him!
Milestones? H's manners are just mid blowing!! E is sleepin so well lately and is busting out a ton of teeth. Where did my baby go!?
PIP those kiddos!
LOs Age(s): 12 weeks! She will be 3 months on Friday.
Best part of your week? She has been so happy in the evenings for the past couple of days. We were even able to watch most of the Oscars last night with her, and then when we put her down for the night, she went right to sleep. It's such a nice change from screaming every evening at 5 o'clock on the dot until she finally goes to sleep at 10.
Worst part of your week? She had a horrible night on Friday-Saturday. My DH let me sleep and took the night feedings, but unfortunately, she woke me up at 2:30 and I was never able to go back to sleep. Which meant that nobody slept that night. Saturday was really hard, as we were both exhausted.
Milestones? I caught her staring intently at her hands the other day. She also is showing more and more interest in toys and moving pictures (like the TV, her ceiling projected, etc.). I only let her watch the tv/computer screen for a few minutes, but it's so fun watching her stare intently at the screen.
