kc730 how did the zoo go? I want to try again with DD, but I'm afraid with LO. I would love to go during the week while on leave, but that would mean the two of them alone. I don't think I could handle that or the metro ride to get there...

Same boat! LO was also born with peach fuzz on his shoulders and arms that they said would fall off, but hasn't yet... I'm pretty sure that he is just a mini gorilla.

Yes! Mine has that, too! Dark fuzzy hair on his shoulders, upper arms, thighs, and along the ridge of his earlobes. 

DD still has the fuzz at a year and a half. Poor girl.

It went really well! I wore LO in my moby wrap and ducked into the cafe when I needed to nurse. DS1 was in awe of everything and stayed in his stroller, surprisingly!

I am in the process of trying to convince a two month old that has been up since 8am that he should have a nap. It is not going well. Falls asleep as I hold him then put him in his bassinet and he sleeps 5 minutes and is awake. Nap time is a fail. We have been trying for an hour. Guess I won't be getting anything done again today.

lepeters try wearing him?

He does sleep when I wear him. It is hard when I want to do things where I am bending over with him in it. I think tomorrow I will just suck it up and wear him. I think I need to wash my baby carrier (k'tan) and dry it as it seems to have stretched out.

Sooooo... how's everyone's day going??

[southernbelle]

LO is usually never fussy. Like she is so easy going. Holy cow today was a different story. From 11-present she has been so fussy. Falls asleep then wakes herself up crying. No idea why. And she's eaten so much today. I even gave her a bath at one point to help try to calm her down. Hoping tomorrow she's back to her normal self.

I accomplished nothing today other then some dishes. I have a cold, so does the toddler and even LO has a bit of a stuffy nose. So today I watched crap tv drank a bunch of tea with honey, and pumped a bunch because he couldn't nurse well.

I got one load of laundry folded. Not even out away, just folded. That's it. And my ILs are coming into town Wednesday. And we have his one month appointment Tuesday, so it's going to be a fun day of cleaning!

Wait you are supposed to put the laundry away?!? Not just pluck clean things out of the basket?

That's how my house has been lately!

I once again got sucked into work. I stopped by to sign a form and stayed for an hour. I had DH call so I could leave. But then I treated myself to a breakfast burrito. So I feel better now.

Dear 2.5 year old 5am is not an acceptable wake up time. It hasn't been acceptable for awhile now. We know you need the sleep because you are sooooooo whiney in the morning.

Love your parents who also need more sleep and less whining.

I hear ya peachey

DD1 got up at 430 today. She's usually up at 6 which is fine for school, but even when we try and push bedtime back it doesn't help.

Yeah we have moved bedtime forward and back to try and get that extra hour out of him with no dice. Our 5 week old almost sleeps better then him!
