Felicity is constantly trying to sit up now. Occasionally she can hold it for a few seconds, so she's on her way. She's started reaching for people (usually me) but she reached for her daddy for the first time the other day, and Dh was SO excited about it.

We just finished another growth spurt, but her teeth have been really bothering her today. I think my fingers going to have a bruise because shes been chewing on it so hard! And I'm pretty sure her poor Sophie has drowned in drool already. She also hasnt been napping well because of the pain, so she's tired... and in pain... which makes for a cranky baby. I just gave her some tylenol so I'm waiting for that to kick in, and hoping she'll be happier, or take a nap. Or both!

Xander is doing great. His bottom two year molars are almost completely through and we are just waiting for the top two now. He is talking non-stop and making 3-4 word sentences all the time. He can actually tell me when he doesn't feel good now. His sleeping habits at night are hit or miss right now, some nights he will sleep through without waking up until 530 and other nights he will wake up around 1 and want to come sleep with us.

I can't believe I'm planning his 2nd birthday party. He's just growing up too quickly.

Riley is picking up words left and right, people aren't kidding about the 18 month explosion. Some days she'll have as many as 3-4 new words come out and she's starting to use the ones she already has a lot more. She also nods her head yes anytime you ask her a question, it's hysterical. Nap time is my new favorite thing, if she's tired and I ask if it's nap time she runs to the nursery, finds her sleep sack, and stands at the fan waiting for me to plug it in. So easy!

Dunc's doing really well. Like Riley--he's starting to use lots of words, but his favorite still is no. He answers all your questions with no (but lots of times will nod his head yes). He will give you a high 5 if you ask for it and a hug and kiss too. At bedtime you can ask if he wants to get his jammies on--if he's ready he will head to his room and wait for you. He turns on his own music now and can turn off his light. He truly amazes me some days. His 7th tooth in 2 months is breaking thru and he has another that is just under the surface. We've given his paci back so he will stop chewing on his hands (they were getting raw and chapped) and he constantly is chewing on it.

Sad I'm sorry Dani. I hated myself every morning when I had to leave for work. And literally counted the hours until I was able to see her again. I also called whoever was watching her every day around 11am to check in and "talk" to her. Like I said, it never got easier, it just became somewhat tolerable. *hugs*

Sorry Dani. I am not looking forward to Cody starting next month.

I'm doing pretty good now that I got some sleep. We had a couple rough nights and both nights I got 2 or 3 hours of interrupted sleep and started to slip into sleep deprivation psychosis. I was just a very mean and moody biitch and would say things under my breath but loud enough for Jay to hear and I didn't care if it started a fight - luckily it didn't. I had a couple breakdowns where I was crying hysterically and hyperventilating because I was so tired and stressed. Jay took Cody for the night Tuesday night and let me sleep until he had to leave for work at 5am. I feel like myself again. We had a good night last night so that helps me still feel like me. I'm not getting a lot of work done working from home because he's up for feeding, playing, changing, and just being awake.

ETA: I'm sorry Dani

I think I'm am beyond lucky and blessed that Campbell is with my mom during the day. Otherwise I'm a crap mom because I don't feel the same (I don't think I ever hated myself for having to go to work). Nick says it's because he's with my mom (and I talk to and hear him several times a day through her).

I don't even know where to start with what's up with him. It's crazy how fast they learn stuff and how fun they can be at this age.
