all the baby photos! Jas, C is getting sooo big! Lili, I love those hair shots! Burk, Tayva is getting sooo grown up! TGal, ROFL on the budgie smugglers!!! MrsM, Amelia is beautiful-I love that snuggly photo of you two together! Sorry about the drive by but just had to say CUTE!
 
Tgal - So awesome that you got the designer stuffs for Amelia. And the used clothes for $20 deal isn't too shabby either.

MrsM - I use the monitor when I am in our bedroom and M is napping in her crib or when I am eating downstair. I can hear her without the monitor in our bedroom if she cries since it's right across from her room, but I use the monitor because she doesn't cry much and only makes little noises. I think it's one of those things that is good to have just in case, but I don't think it's a necessity.

Jas & pinky - Co & J look adorable in their jumperoo. Make me want to get one for M.

snlee - I'm a little late, but like everyone said, just throw the target tanks in the washer and dryer. I think they only shrank in length.

Glad you like your pedi. I got too lazy in 3rd trimester to interview pedi, so we went with the one referred by our OB. We actually like him a lot, and even recommended him to our pregnant friend. We went to our pedi a few days after our discharge, then we won't see him til M is 1 month, then 2 months, 4 months, 6 months. Not sure how often after 6 months.

Burk - You think Tayva is getting ready to walk soon? That's probably exciting and more worrying for you.

Oh I had a really rough day with M yesterday because she refused to sleep. I rocked her, she dosed off, I put her down in her crib, and she just opened her eyes and be wide awake. That happened the whole day. It was tough because I can tell she was sleepy, but she just wouldn't sleep. Finally she went to bed at 10:30pm. Thank goodness, she was able to go back to sleep easily after the night feedings. Then today she was a total sleepyhead.
 
Tacori, I just had to log in specially to say I LOVE the photo of Tessa and the piano! Also your new avatar is beautiful! I can''t believe how grown up all the babies are getting!!
 
hello ladies!!

how r u all doing?? ive been MIA, but we''ve had a pretty rough past week(and a bit)...my husband got some food poising, then straight after my son got a stomach bug (lots of spitting/throw-up and diarrhea all thru out the day), then hubby got okay and i got the bug from my son and we were then both out of commission..i finally get better and the exact same day, hubby gets a really high fever and i had to come back home from work to take him to the hospital!! talk about one sick family..hopefully this will be the end of that..

it was really rough seeing little K not being able to eat anything or keep anything down...as soon as the spoon touched his mouth, everything came back out =(.... but hopefully all is under control now!!

LOVE all the baby pics!!!

heres a few of little K rite before he got sick...i was playing around with the setting on the camera and snapped this pic by mistake, but it came out great =)

IMG_5894.JPG
 
and another one..he was hiding behind the curtain and he''d peak out every few seconds (playing peek-a-boo) and i snapped this rite as he was ''peeking'' ..

IMG_5890.JPG
 
awwww....

IMG_5824.JPG
 
i PROMISE this is the last one..

he was running around the house having a blast with the sound that his new shoes were making on the floor!! hahah...every time hed ''stomp'' hed crack up laughing...hahaha the things that they find entertaining!

IMG_5857.jpg
 
WE ARE HOME!!!! YAYYAAAYYYYYYAHHHHH! No more trips til x-mas! Of course baby and I are both sick but at least I am sick in my *own* bed. DH actually was going to GOLF today! I told him no way was he going to leave his sick girls to golf. I never like being the kind of wife that doesn't allow him to do things but come on buddy! Tessa has entered her destructive stage. Everything is fair game. DH played with her in her nursery this morning....what a mess! I guess he just let her take everything apart. Guess my next baby proofing stage is going to begin.

Jas12, probably too late but we love our evenflo exersaucer. It's the one with the arch over it. Lots of toys and lots of fun for her. Can you put something under his feet in the jumper. That is what we had to do with Tessa. Co is so cute!

MissP, J is so cute! Looks like she is having fun!

Burk, isn't it fun when you find clothes that you forgot you had? We had to lower the crib around 6 months. Tessa can actually climb a few stairs! Scary. She is a mover too and loves pulling herself up on everything.

TGal, you are always so sweet to me! How exciting about the "new" clothes! Don't feel bad. You couldn't even SEE T's clothes for the longest time b/c she ALWAYS had a bib on.
20.gif
Seriously if it wasn't for the grandma's she would have very little clothes. Almost makes me wish I have another girl so all this stuff can get worn again.

Lili, she has her bottom two teeth. No new ones have appeared but she does have a cold so she was probably fussy b/c of that.

MrsM, I keep my monitor on low (there are lights that show the noise so I know if she is screaming) plus I can usually hear her (my girl's got some lungs on her). Around 4 months they suggest baby ONLY sleeps in his/her crib. So that is where Tessa naps (before that it was usually her swing). You are lucky you have a sleeper!!!

She loved banging on the piano keys. It was pretty cute (but loud).

Snlee, I don't hand wash anything and never had a problem. I just washed them in cold. I went to the pedi at 1 week, 2 week, 1 month, 2 month, 4 month, 6 month, 9 months, will go at 12 months, 18 months, 2 years. Then I think it is every year.

Gemma, thanks!

msb, poor K! Such a cutie. Hope everyone is feeling better.
 
Welcome back Tacori! You were missed! I hope you and Tessa feel better soon!

Burk, lili, TGal, qtiekiki and Tacori, thanks for your input about the tanks and pedi.
 
Thanks, Q and Tacori - you''ve confirmed what I suspected. I probably need a monitor.
Sorry you''re both sick, Tacori. Hope you shake it off quickly.

Thank you Gemma! I love that photo too. I can''t decide if it would be better or just less cute if she''d stayed awake.

Jen
 
Tacori, I am so sorry to read that both you and little Tessa are sick. I hope you both are feeling well soon.

Sending you both a big hug.

Love, Linda
 
Hi everyone!

I know I've been MIA for a while. I've been lurking but not really too much to contribute these days--I'm kind of in my own world. My mom had a polyp in her colon that had to be removed via surgery and was in the hospital for about 5 days and spent 3 of them in a crazy, hallucinating state as the drugs were too much for her body to handle. So it was pretty stressful for all of us, not to mention being 34 weeks pregnant, working and taking care of a 15 month old! Yes, this is a "curlycentric" post but I'll try to catch up on everything and reply to everyone later. Great photos, though. They've made me smile--keep em coming!!!

Here's one of Miss Lily who can't help but climb on everything she sees. Do you think I should send this to Huggies and see if they'll hire her to be their spokesmodel?! We LOVE their wipes!!!!

And just one more that makes me smile--she was running over to hug me and there's nothing better than that! Ah, the innocence of youth!!!

Hope everyone is doing well. I promise to get better about posting as soon as I have more time.

So many cutie pies Lili, Tacori, MrsMitchell, Jas12, Tgal, Curly, Burk, MissPinky, MSB700 and a few others I know I am forgetting; all of them are adorable!!!

Snlee, it is *so* good to be back! Thanks!

MrsM, we live in a pretty big house and I can still hear her when she wails but it is nice to have a back-up. Plus sometimes my ears play tricks on me and I *think* she is crying but isn''t really. That''s annoying
2.gif
I don''t think you need a really expensive one. She has only been sick once before and I was sick that time too! Hard to deal with her and myself but I must say she handles it MUCH better than me. If it wasn''t for her running nose you wouldn''t know she was sick.

Linda, you are so sweet. I feel better today. Yesterday was bad (and we drove 8 hours which is uncomfortable in perfect health) Hope all is good with you friend.

Curly, we love huggies wipes too. Lily is such a pretty little girl. I cannot wait to see if her sister looks like her. Sorry to hear about your mom.

Skippy, thanks! PSers do have some cuties.
 
Welcome back Tacori! We missed ya! Hope you feel better soon.

Speaking of missing, where''s Ella? Miss ya too girl!

msb, I was wondering where you were. Glad to see you and your peekaboo cutie!

Curly, just lurk and post when you feel like. You''re at the end of your pregnancy and that is tiring enough. I love those pics of Lily...especially the running and hugging one. I look forward to the day myself.
 
Thanks TGal. I am sure we will feel better soon.

So is it strange that T did the army crawl for 2+ months. Loved it (and was fast) Now she does a cross between a regular crawl and crawling on her hands and feet (like a triangle with her butt in the air). Is that a sign of walking soon?

snlee, handwash? Are they on drugs? I didn''t even check the tags...I wash and it did shrink a bit but no big deal. They really think a new mom is going to handwash anything?
38.gif

Yup, I''d throw myself in the washer too if I were small enough.

So sorry to hear that you guys had a rough week.
Poor little K, you and hubby

Fingers crossed that that's the worst of it.

Cute pix of little K.
Love the one where he's playing peek-a-boo.

QT
Yup, that sounds really familiar

Hope M is able to remain asleep today.

Tacori
Ahh...I see them in her recent avi

Curly
Sorry to hear about your mom.

Not to freak you out or anytihng, but according to Chinese culture, that''s a sign that Tessa is expecting a little playmate

Really lili? I''ve never heard of that.

Curly, good to see an update from you. I''m sorry to hear about your mom and hope she has a smooth recovery. Lily is so cute! Are you off work soon?
 
Snlee
Well, maybe not crawl like that.
It''s more like if the baby does the triangle on her hands and feet and peek through between her legs.
 
Hey, really quick...

girl mommas, check out these hairclips. Apparently they are supposed to stay clipped to babyfine hair. I didn''t put it on the baby finds thread yet because I haven''t purchased any, but they look kinda cute!!

Thanks lili! I know-part of me can hardly believe it''s less than 3 months away!!

Msb, such cute photos of K!! I''m glad he''s feeling better-poor you!

Tacori, I''m sorry I missed you first time around! I saw your avi somewhere else and thought I had to pop in to this thread! I hear you on the DH thing-I just know DH is thinking that he can continue with all his ''extracurricular'' activities-I don''t want him to assume I''m childcare on tap after hours and on weekends! Hope you are feeling better soon

.

MrsM, I just think it''s adorable with her asleep. She looks so peaceful and trusting!

Curly, so sorry to hear about your mom. I hope you get a chance to get some rest before the baby arrives-a big hope since you have Miss Lily who is GORGEOUS! by the way!

Oh, that''s not bad! This may have to be my little splurge for Amelia. You should get some for Jadie, as she actually has the lovely locks to pull it off. Or do you want to wait for my review? I am not going to buy until next week though since I am out of town.
 
That'll be a good splurge since you want to have some nice hair accessories to go with her boutique clothes
5.gif


Hehe, yes, I'll wait for your review.
Can't wait to see Amelia with them.
Which designs are you getting? The flower or the food?

I think though that at $8 a clip, it will definitely do what they claim it does.
I've checked out other hair clip sites...and they all seem to run about that price.
 
lili, don''t say that!!!!
32.gif
I am SO *not* ready for #2.

Gemma, I actually told him that it hurt my feelings he even thought about golfing when I am sick, she is sick AND we were away for 2 weeks. He totally DOESN''T get it. At least he asked I guess
20.gif
I love my DH (obviously) but he isn''t the most thoughtful and never will be. *sigh* Hopefully your DH will surprise you. You''ll know soon enough! You feel ready?
