Heather: hope pt helps, poor guy!!
Lora: Hope E is ok!! And sleeps tonight!

[loraG]

Shannon- good to hear from you. Adalyn will do everything in her own time. Don't rush it!

Loren- sorry about the CIO...it stinks anyway you look at it. Good luck. So cute on the signing though!

Kaj- Oh that's so adorable that Molly is waving. Does she wave goodbye when you drop her off at daycare?

Question for all: I know this has been asked before, but how many hours a day does your LO sleep? Pedi said Evan should be sleeping 14 but it's more like 12 for him (if I'm lucky...).

Well, the kids I nanny for have been exposed to chicken pox and may be coming down with them! Ugh!!!!!!! So it looks like I won't be working the next 2 weeks so kline doesn't get it. and Then they go to egypt for 2 weeks after that. so looks like I am workless for the next month, double ugh!!!!! Plenty of time to pack, but not much money to spend decorating! ;-/
I sure hope kline doesn't get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lora-Hailey sleeps for 14-15 hours a day.

Shannon- we still have no teeth either!

loren- Have fun painting! I love painting too! Our house was mostly different shades of green too...I like it. The only room I have had to paint so far is Hailey's. Iplan to paint the dining room too,but have to find curtains I like first. Congrat's on the new house! As for the rocking to sleep thing...I had to quit that at like 3 months because Hailey would sleep while rocking,but wake up as soon as I put her down. I think CIO is the only thing that works?!

AFU- Hailey is taking steps without holding onto anything It's so cute and wobbly. Lol...wont be long til she is running all over the place! I also got her 1st birthday party dress in the mail yesterday....It's so cute! I'll post the link so you can see.

One more thing...anyone else having anxiety/mixed emotions about our babies turning1?! I am so happy that she is happy and healthy...and I love watching her do all these new and exciting things....but WOW! It went by so fast! I keep having dreams that I am planning her sweet 16 instead of her first Bday! Lol....I know that's still a ways away but if the rest of the years go by as quickly as this one did..... I'm greatful that I have been able to stay home with her...I find myself fighting back tears when I look at her and think of all we went through to get here.

loren - good grief. what a lot to worry about...sorry you won't be working much the next month, but I certainly hope Kline avoids the pox this way! The kids you nanny for - didn't they get the chicken pox vaccine? have fun painting! I love color, too. My favorite room is our dark red living room.

shannon - wow - a 3 year old already! Time really does fly, huh?

lora - my boys sleep at least 14 hours a day. Hope Evan evens out for you and that his ears are clear. he's had a tough winter so far.

bre - that party dress is soooo cute! She'll look adorable in it! She's really a mover, isn't she?! How's the new puppy? Is Hailey chasing him around?!

bre - that party dress is soooo cute! She'll look adorable in it! She's really a mover, isn't she?! How's the new puppy? Is Hailey chasing him around?!

Yes Heather! She really is a mover! She is sooooooooooo busy! The puppy is a pain in my butt! I really don't feel like I have time for him! With Hailey so active...it's hard to keep an eye on them both! If he could wear a diaper I wouldn't worry so much,but I don't want him peeing on my brand new carpet! Especially with Hails crawling all over it! Hailey is not a big fan of him,he likes to chew on her feet and she gets soooooooooo mad! And he doesn't know the difference between his toys and her toys....he takes off with them and she catches up and takes them back. lol

Shortly after I posted this Hailey took a couple steps,fell and busted her lip open It was awful.

Hi ladies! I can't believe its February!!!

heather - Sorry about Nicholas's tick, hope the PT works wonders on it.

loren - Hope Kline gets back on track with his sleeping, CIO is the worst! Sorry about the job situation too, ugh.

lora - Hope Evan is ok and he doesn't have an ear infection.

Kaj - The waving sounds so cute!

Hello to anyone else I missed.

AFU, Emerson is finally starting to get mobile, he has been crawling backwards, lol! Its actually pretty funny! I'm sure he'll start going forward soon enough. We had a playdate the other day and the baby is two days older than Emerson, the kid is walking!! Its crazy.

Kaj- Isn't the waving so cute. Adalyn waves and says hi to everyone. It is so cute.

Bree-Love the dress. Poor little girl with the split lip. Unfortunately, that is just the first of many huh?

Loren- Like the paint colors. Sorry about the lack of work and having to do CIO again.

Lora- Adalyn only sleeps like 12-13.5 hours total. Usually closer to 12.

Lisa- Adalyn started scooting backwards before she went forward too. Now she just does the army crawl.

[loraG]

Bree-what an adorable dress! Sorry about the split lip...poor baby.
You are a brave woman dealing with a puppy and a newly walking baby in your NEW house!

Yes- I do have mixed emotions about Evan turning 1. I also get teary thinking about how fast the time is going by and it's especially hard since I'm not home with him 5 days week.

Loren- Bummer on the chicken pox exposure but isn't that one of the vaccines babies get?
Nice colors..have fun!


Lisa- nice that E is starting to crawl. That's so funny about him going backwards. Walking at 9 months is very early!!

Thanks for the info on the sleeping. Guess Adalyn and Evan are on the low end of the spectrum

Another thing with Evan is that he's very clingy when I bring home from daycare. He starts to cry if I put him down. He's ok if I sit with him but if I'm standing and he's sitting he starts to bawl and pulls up on my legs and lifts his arms up to me. I wonder if it's a separation thing....
