this was yesterday. It's a good thing she's cute because she only got one 4.5 hour chunk if sleep last night and has been a a fussy girl since 3:30 this morning.

AW incoming, got the rest of Hazel's pics back.

[catherineoctober]

this is what happens when our puppy comes over and licks Jane awake. At least she's happy.

Such cute, happy babies!
mrsp121308 that wrinkled up nose, how adorable!

[littlelion]

My babies.

I did it! I registered for a 5k for March 25th. it's on schedule for me to start the running plan for zero to 5k in the women's running magazine Monday, then do the 5k. :-) I don't know why it took me so long to realize I'll just start using the office gym instead of being silly and waiting for the weather to clear up.

We survived daycare orientation!

I've done C25k a couple times. It works! Good luck!

I need to watch this. We don't have DVR or cable (but get basic channels) though and I'll never sit down at the scheduled time. How else can I watch it?!

My husband downloads them for me, but I think it's on Hulu.

I watch via the NBC app!

For the ladies that delivered a little early ( mrsp121308, Lucy), do you think your babies are developmentally closer to their true age? Or their adjusted age? I'm just curious.

DD seems more advanced than DS right now. She seems to recognize our faces better and will actively bat at toys, laugh etc. DS seems closer to his adjusted age and is just starting to smile more (when prompted, not only at sight) and bats at the toys less. I'm not worried, it's just interesting.

So much cute in one thread!!!

crimpgirl Is the app ChatBooks? I loooooove ChatBooks.

I bragged too soon about our long stretch of sleep. Last night was every three hours. 🙄

Here's a photo from the other day:

Don't you have to have cable to sign in though?

I don't think so. We don't have cable. I think I just made an account? I can't remember.

We just had out first poopy diaper leak. All down the leg of her pants into her socks. She had been contently sitting in for who knows how long. Picked her up to feed and smelled it first. She was not a fan of the sink bath she got.

We had two blowouts today. Laundry time!

Anyone ever hear the term "purple crying"? My husband's co-worker keeps bringing it up. I'm getting a little sick of hearing about it. I guess it's when babies cry for no reason. Jane pretty much always has a reason, it just takes me a while to figure it out.

They brought it up at our infant care class. It's another explanation for the crazy crying instead of saying colic.

requiressnacks, I think Cora is fairly spot on for her actual age -- as in, she's doing what she should be, but doesn't do too much earlier than expected.

I weighed Cora at DD's dr appt yesterday. My once 4 1/2 lb nugget is now a 13lb 4oz super chunk.

[Lucy]

catherineoctober, my other babies did it, but at the time they just called it colic. I think it's great that they've come up with a new name for it with a definition. It helps people who are dealing with it really understand that there is nothing wrong, they aren't doing anything wrong, and that they just have to wait it out. I think it could help prevent some shaken babies.

I've been up and running since 6 am. And I'm still not ready for work tomorrow. As in no outfit in mind. I've pumped 3x's today and was happy I got a good amt in a short time. But don't look fwd to doing that at the office. The space is basically a sectioned off room in the bathroom with a curtain. And today I had to take my shirt off in order to pump comfortably. 😶

crimpgirl I'm definitely going to order extras and gift them too! I did soft cover to start, but I may want to upgrade. You'll have to let me know what you think when you get yours! The soft covers are actually pretty nice.

[dream2be3]

There's a lot of cuteness up in here! They're all getting so big!

We did a trial run with the babysitter Tuesday to make everything would go ok, which it did. I got to enjoy almost an entire day ALL TO MYSELF - it was awesome!

This was taken before we left for the sitter's:

requiressnacks, I think she acts pretty close to her true age. The difference you are seeing really might be more of boy vs girl. It seems like there's almost always a difference between the sexes.

I think out might be right. They are so different!
