Thanks for the check in!

Age: 9 months!!

Milestones: He started pulling up on Friday. Now he is obssessed with standing.

Challenges: I need opinions. He has puked the 3 times he has been fed oatmeal (cereal or pureed). The puking will either be immediately after or up to two hours after. We still nurse and he has never shown an intolerance to oats before (I eat a lot of gronola since I hate oatmeal). Any ideas what could be causing this?

Funny/cute story: Y'all he ate up being the center of attention at thanksgiving. Anytime he would do something he wasnt supposed to and I tried to correct him, he would find a sympathetic ear and get away with it. He could have gotten away with murder this last week and everyone would have smiled and said good job.

How are you? I'm tired from all the traveling. Happy to be home.

QOTW: Are you an early present shopper or do you save it all for the last minute? Did you participate in Black Friday or Cyber Monday? I'm usually a lady minute shopper despite my best intentions. I did get W's grandpa to buy his next carseat. We got the 4ever seat at a steal, black friday ftw!

megrae12 if you don't think it's an allergy/intolerance, is it possible he's overeating?

I did some research (dr. Google) and based on his symptoms it may be FPIES, Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome. I know he didn't overeat yesterday when he had it as he only ate 2 oz. So it very could be an intolerance.

Age: 9m + 1w

Milestones: His brain is suddenly clicking on so much. He can bend to pick up toys while standing, works on puzzles, climbs stairs, stacks blocks, puts balls through holes, etc. Craziness. He's also close to waving and clapping. Oh and we cut 3 new teeth! He's got 6 now.

Challenges: Not a lot, he's just a sassy little monster sometimes.

Funny/cute story: His little personality is blossoming and he's learning humor and playing with others. Now I'll say "I'm gonna get you!" and he laughs and crawls away, waiting for me to scoop him up. I love it.

How are you? I'm good. We did a road trip and stayed with the in-laws for a week over Thanksgiving. We got back late Sunday and I'm still recovering, lol.

QOTW: I'm an early shopper, searching for deals and such. I'm all about Black Friday and Cyber Monday. There are a lot of packages coming.

Thanks for the check in. Its been a while. Never much time here.

Age: 4 months last week

Milestones: well they started STTN but not the last 2 nights. They did it for like a week and a half. I am hoping it comes back soon.

Challenges: nap time. The babies do not like to sleep at the same time. Luckily they don't seem to mind watching me do stuff around the house.

Funny/cute story:we put Christmas lights in their room ans yhey smile when ever they look at them. Putting up the tree this weekend. Can't wait!

How are you? Ok. I am having all the feels today because it was a year ago today that we had our IUI for these two. I just so remember how I felt and how much I prayed it would work and so scared it wouldnt. Now I am holding 2 babies. Blows my mind!

QOTW: Are you an early present shopper or do you save the last minute? Did you participate in Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

Well I try to start early. But I am usually running to get something last minute. I like to shop sales and look around. But no time this year. When I see it I buy it. We don't have much black Friday or cyber monday sales here. So needless to say no I didn't partake!

Nice to see you in here @musicboxdancr! I can't believe he is 11 months already!

[tkford216]

hollyberry aw definitely all the feels today. So amazing how this all works.

Age: 4 months as of the 27th!

Milestones: he is grabbing things and putting his hands halfway down his throat now

Challenges: he chokes himself sticking his hand down his mouth so far

Funny/cute story: He still laughs every time I pick him up at daycare like he is so happy to see me. It melts my heart.

How are you? I am pretty angry at MH today actually. I think it just hit me how little he helps out with S. Now, its hard with 2 kids and a house to take care of and he does take care of L and does stuff around the house... This really all arose from him having a week off to stay home with L for part of his Christmas vacation. I told him that S would stay home with him too instead of going to DC. S would have much better care and would cry less and sleep more with H rather than being at DC with 7 other babies and only 2 caregivers. H is being a dick about not wanting to take care of 2 kids by himself even though I do it all the time. He has not taken care of both boys for longer than 30 minutes EVER. its not like L is a toddler either, he is basically 7 years old.

I am not budging on this and I feel like if H keeps whining and not agreeing to it we are going to have a huge fight and i will say things that I dont want to.

QOTW: Are you an early present shopper or do you save it all for the last minute? Did you participate in Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

I try to buy stuff early and usually fail. L's birthday is a week after Christmas so I have double the amount of stuff to buy. I bought one thing on black Friday and so far that's it. I really need to get going on buying both boys some stuff.
