Howdy, Weekend!

[pixie523]

It DID take me all week to get back in the swing of things, but 10 out of 10 would do a weekend alone again.

Took a break from closet swap to take a walk but got caught in the rain. Now one of us is still working on LOs clothes.

H is back home and Liam will.not.nap. Excuse me child but we want to have welcome home sex!


Ywia for that tmi

[jjh1119]

Ugh seriously, zengal. He hasn't been that hard to put down for a nap in months

[pixie523]

They really do know. But howwwww?

Put him in his crib with a toy and bang out a quickie.

[pixie523]

Got a glimpse into LOs mouth today and there are two new teeth poking through. Had no clue! Bring on the steaks. 4 teeth is plenty for steak, yes? Just kidding if it's not avocado or toast she just throws it. Not wasting steak on the floor.

[jjh1119]

Oh don't worry pixie, he finally fell asleep for JUST long enough to get 'er done ?

[jjh1119]

? is supposed to be ;-)

I had book club this morning. We did a Breakfast at Tiffany's theme brunch. Mimosas, breakfast foods, and girl talk was the perfect combination today.

[jjh1119]

That sounds pretty great msn

[pixie523]

H is really irritating me today. I don't like having to ask my partner to be kind to me.

[MsNicole06]

DD completed her first Pinterest project today. Since Grandparents day is tomorrow each set of grandparents is getting one. DD was super co-operative with her feet but now they are stained red.

We saw my parents tonight and they loved theirs.

[jjh1119]

Steak is the only food he hasn't tried. But I have a thingy that can grind it. Not sure why I never thought of it. I guess other than mama likes her steak med rare and liam just eats whatever is on my plate. No med rare steak for baby

Sorry your H isn't being nice pixie. Nut punch him.

Msnicole that is adorable!

Enjoy the much cerveza zengal


Baby is asleep..... Round two??

[MsNicole06]

Thanks ladies...DH never made the connection that our parents now get recognized as grandparents until I brought up a gift. He was talking about how his cousins bday dinner is also going to be a dinner for his grandma since grandparents day was Sunday.

We are chilling at home now and will be watching some TV. fX DD will sleep in her crib tonight.

Envious of babies who eat solids. What is your LO doing at self-feeding? This one will eat most anything you put in her mouth and sucks out the flavor. She may not swallow it. If you give it to her to hold, she just drops it over the high chair tray. I can't even say how many puffs have ended up on the floor.

[MsNicole06]

Gldnbearz DD eats pasta and pizza like no other. She only drops food when she's done. If I'm eating it I just cut it small for her.

DD has 9 teeth and will only chew if she feels like it. I tried moving to stage 3 foods with the chunks in and she refused to eat the chunks. She'll chew real food if she feels like.

DD also refuses to hold a bottle.

Pixie I hate days like that with H, I swear he is hormonal sometimes

Took lo to the harvest festival parade by our house today and had a great time. She went nuts for the horses when they went by...maybe I have a future cowgirl on my hands.

[gldnbearz]

@msn06 This one refuses to hold the bottle properly. She'll play with it, but doesn't hold it for drinking. She's got 4.5 teeth and apparently, only likes to scrape/gnaw on apples.

[l8rg8r]

All 5 of us are in our bed right now. I love it and dislike it all at the same time. The kids all slept well last night and didn't join us until an hour ago. I brought lo in at around 5 and we've been up ever since. I'm glad he's figured out how to sleep in his crib for more than a couple of hours.

Not sure what we are doing today. I hope a nap is in the plans though.

[l8rg8r]

MsNicole06, Love the grandparents' gift! So adorable!

[jjh1119]

Another one who refuses to hold the damn bottle. He knows HOW to. But honestly it's the only guaranteed 10 min of sitting still on my lap. I don't have to hold it if I'm holding him and he is leaned back enough. But he won't like, sit in his high chair and hold it up enough.

Self feeding- he was everything. He definitely has a very heavy savory tooth. He gobbles down spicy (not like hot hot but flavorful) savory foods like there's no tomorrow. I have to make sure things are soft enough though.

He can pick up even the slipperiest of things now which is cool. If it's an all fruit pouch he is pretty meh over it but it likes fresh fruit. I hand him the spoon for spoon things and he puts it in his mouth (80% of the time) the other 20% land in his nose, eyelashes, shirt and hair.

He has one tooth plus one coming in pretty well and two more are breaking through as we speak

[pixie523]

Two months ago she would happily accept and bite every single thing presented to her. Now? Most things will fly over the edge of her tray before even tasting them. I was anxious about it but now I care less. She's still eating, pooping and growing.

Told H the constant eye roll and teasing hurt my feelings. He told me I was sensitive. Insert middle finger emoji. Today is a new day.

[ninergirl52]

Lo eats pretty much what we eat but I keep a lot of protein on hand (his favorite is salmon but I only let him have that once a week). He can pick up just about anything and eat it. Even the slippery stuff (he loves mangos).

Off topic ... Af made her first post baby appearance this morning. It was such an unpleasant surprise. I was really hoping she would stay away longer since I EBF. But alas no. Guess I should go see what apps you all are using to track it.

[jax1182014]

Ninergirl I've had my period back for months and I ebf. It sucks :/

[jax1182014]

Allison loves feeding our dog with the food she doesn't feel like eating. It's actually kinda cute. He enjoys it too! Lol

[ninergirl52]

Boo jax! I realize 10 months pp is nothing to complain about. I need to get over my pity party.

[songbirdsinging55]

My instagram in chock full of new vacab from Isaac. He has started saying please or more like pease when he points to something he wants. Or if he wants up. He says up pease. I just can't figure it out. He is so articulate for a baby. We also signed up for prime. This could be dangerous for my bank account because I have started Christmas and Birthday shopping.

For foods, he loves flavor. He can do diced foods and eat quite a bit with all of the teeth. I think purees are a thing of the past. He won't even eat it mixed with other foods.

The last 2 nights he has been up yso late. He has 2 molars coming in and is on a food strike which they warned would happen. So he has been drinking a ton of formula.

[kfaye]

Lo woke up from her nap after only 30 mins and fell asleep in my arms and has been sleeping on me for the last hour and a half. Annnddd the damn dog just barked at nothing and woke her up!

Re food, lo loves anything she can feed herself. She only has two teeth so not much chewing us actually getting done but she tries. Purees are not happening anymore which sucks bc my friend and I made a ton.

Have had such a nice weekend hanging with lo and my H. Love when he's home and I can get help with lo all day. (All of course depending on his mood. We fought all last weekend pixie!) Went for a long run earlier and now we are just hanging out having a beer and watching the Broncos game

[kfaye]

Oh I too was hoping af would stay away but she reared her ugly head a few weeks ago...not fun. I'm pretty sure with my mini pill I'm not supposed to have one but I missed 5 pills so....

[MsNicole06]

I got to have a craft day so I hemmed a skirt for a friend, and then have spent the last 2 hours working a layout I like for DDs invites and getting all my pieces to line up just right so I can print them and then cut my desired shape on my cricut.

[MsNicole06]

This is the basic layout. I have since changed capitalization in places and added some punctuation in spots.
