We've been to a 50th birthday party tonight. The theme was "dress to impress" so lots of ball gowns and suits!! This was Ben's outfit....

He's absolutely shattered and went straight to bed for once!!! 

Aww Lou that's so funny! Love it! What a classy baby!

 

[lisaf]

Aw Suz, I didn't mean to make you feel bad, you did what you could, he will be ok

 

[Onelildream]

Suz- it's not your fault! Accidents mean you are not to blame! I am so sorry. Poor baby trying to eat with a bandaged hand. He's prob just upset it is wrapped and he can't use it to scoop his food to his mouth with two hands! Oh and about Connor, he was totally laughing while max was rolling him over but I didn't turn around to see max actually flipping him! Once he fell of the bed he was so shocked he didn't even cry. Scared the crap out of me tho! I freaked him out more than falling did! I guess max just thought all the laughing meant he needed a bigger thrill. ?! Little Stink!

Casey- yes suuuuuuper excited! We leave Saturday. Eek! I have so much to do! I am going to try to leave a minimal list for lars' mom, and not even a schedule... Except for school. I don't want to overwhelm her! I know that things will be an adjustment when I get back but I think they will all get back on shedule once I get home. Or am I being too lax? Should I write a schedule for each of the kids??? How is Jimmy now that u are back? Is he scared when u leave the room? Maddie thought I was leaving again every time we went down to gma and gpas after my first trip (when she was 4 mo) she would bawl and hyperventilate up to a few months after thinking we would be leaving again. Poorthing! I have to admit, I'm getting a bit sad to leave them all. I will miss homework and after school snacks and boy time and even asking max if he needs to go potty. I know she won't do everything the way I do, but I'm sure Lars and I will have a great time getting a conversation together and eating while our food is hot, and, shoot, peeing without interruptions! Haha. It will be a nice week!

Girls night was fun. Although not worth the effort and stupidity leading up to it! I could have just stayed home and painted by toes and had my own meal with the same effect! We watched now and then. Love that movie! And now my toes are cruise ready! I painted my pregnant sisters toes (she can't reach them anymore!) and that was actually very nice to have a few bonding moments. I love my younger siblings! Even if they are a complete pain in the arse at times!

Lou- love the pics! Such a little stud, he is!

Lisa, Jess, Laura- hi! Hugs!

 

[caz & bob]

girls af got me yesterday so on to natural cycles now till after xmas then back to fs just hope i get court on my natural cycles fx x x x

 

[kcw81]

Sorry caz about af!

Chell Jimmy is great! I am so happy I wrote the schedule and instructions and they actually followed it! There has been no change other than now he can crawl like a little pro! I was able to put Jim down for naps on time all day! I am amazed and grateful. But he is just one baby. For three kids that is a lot to follow, although... I would appreciate a detailed guide if I were the one babysitting yr kids. Jimmy seems to be fine, not upset if I leave, in fact, since he can crawl now he is happier he doesn't get stuck in a spot and need rescuing! He sure has to be watched close now!

I am so excited for yr trip! I hope it's warm and sunny and you can relax!

 

[SBB]

Lou he looks so cute!! Bless him did he sleep well?

Sammuel was up loads, not sure if he was in pain, or just stressed from the bad day, or because he was wet. His boob tube bandage got into the top if his nappy so it got wet then his nightie got wet
I feel so bad that I didnt know it was on his tummy and I was holding him tight so I'm sure it must have been burning him more while I was trying to cool his hand down. Poor baby. Can't believe it even happened

Chell I'd appreciate a list too I think! glad you had fun in the end!

Casey do us a crawling video!

Just had a total scare. Daniel somehow ripped one of his stitches in his lip, blood pouring out of his mouth etc. Made me feel SOOO bad for him, a little boobie time took care of the bleeding and comforted him though

 

[SBB]

Ouch poor Daniel

X x x

 

[kcw81]

Oh no Lisa! Poor thing. Did u have a bloody boob?

 

[lisaf]

nope, I was all prepared to be covered in bloody spit, but we were both bloodless when he came off the boob.
I feel so bad that only the boob can comfort him.. .what if I wasn't home when it happened?

 

[kcw81]

He's so young still- he will get comforted by other things in a few months- like cookies! Ha no I think that is totally normal. Don't u also have a few secret weapons to calm him? One of mine is carrying Jim into the laundry room and having him watch the machine and touch the knobs.

 

[Onelildream]

Sorry Lisa.

 

[SBB]

What about teething powders Lisa? They are really calming!

 

[Peach Blossom]

Oh Suz, poor Sammuel. I hope he's ok.

Lisa, poor Daniel! Is he ok now?

Lou, I love that outfit! When we went to a wedding earlier in the year I got Lili a "twin set and pearls" bib and Matteo a dinner jacket bib!

I'm still not feeling right... I have a pain under my ribcage.... not indigestion... don't know what it is! I'm off to the opening night of Crazy For You tonight! I'd forgotten about it so had to go and buy something in my lunch break... any excuse to go shopping!

 

[lisaf]

could it be gall bladder issues Jess?

I don't know if they sell teething powders here.. I don't think they do.

 

[SBB]

Where is everybody?!

Jess hope you had fun! Wonder what that pain could be.... Weird

[lisaf]

So we've had a few cloth diaper leaks... one where he was lying on his side in a flip-style (brand is best bottoms) and his side got wet So I'm not a fan of that style for now.
The other 2 leaks happened overnight when he was in it for more than 12 hours (he wakes up but only in the early hours of the night, then he was sleeping until 13-14 hours since he'd be first put down.
We even triple-stuffed his diaper one night and all that did was cause the inserts to expand so much that they caused gaps at the leg elastic
It might have just been the covers we were using, will try with a different brand next time.

Any tips for me Suz?

 

[kcw81]

Hey y'all it is quiet sheesh! Jess have fun at the show! Tell us bout it!

Jimmy had his 9 month today and he is 19 lbs and 28 inches. His weight is 25th percentile which is consistent with the past and no big deal but the doc said his height is lower than expected so I have to go in a month for a remeasure. I hope he gets a growth spurt soon so he is normal growth. She said that his height plateaued and at this point wouldn't quite expect that. I am not too worried but I hope he grows soon. I think he will hit a spurt soon since he is just starting to get to the 9 month milestones like crawling . Maybe he will get teeth and taller and clap all at the same time! He got shots today too but that wasn't too bad this time. He got over it quick.
