Well the wait don''t feel worth it b/c I found out a few days after waiting in line that the aquatic center is a client at our friend''s bank and she could''ve sign M up for us. I am glad that M is enjoying herself though, so I shouldn''t complain.
Yeah you are right; M seems ok with the whole milk. I up the whole milk to 2oz, and she is fine. I''ll still keep an eye out though.
So sorry that you are dealing with m/s again this pregnancy. Hope it gets better sooner for you this time around.

Glad C''s u/s turned out well. Maybe she''s just enjoying crawling, and not ready to stand yet.
I just look at Tacori''s link for T''s walker/rider. I got M that one, and she didn''t like it. We are going to return it.
Sounds like C is ready for more finger food. Maybe you can give her some breakfast cereal to replace the baby cereal.
puffy
I am doing well. I am not getting bloated constantly like a couple weeks ago. I also not as tired, but still can knocked out with M after work.
I have my next appt this Friday and then the NT scan next Tuesday.
Can''t believe you will be getting your big u/s already at the end of the month. Time flies. I bet you can''t wait. So exciting.

Ditto puffy. Get your teeth clean, so you can work on J''s sibling.
Ok here''s the 10 weeks belly pic. Just excuse my weird expression.

QT, I hate you. You just look so damn good! Amelia stole my body, she really did.
OK, that''s victim mentality. She didn''t steal it. I''m just a lazy sack of doo and just can''t seem to fight to get my body back!
Thanks all for the 10k post wishes. Very nice of y''all and it was a nice surprise to receive the lovely 10K gift. I''m still not sure how I am going to set my pad, but am looking at Leon, of course. If that doesn''t work out, I may just get something for my mom. I just don''t need anything!
MrsS, re: Amelia''s knees...the tube socks worked pretty well, I must say!
Tacori, hope you are enjoying your trip!
Puffy, wish we could see videos of B talking! Must be amazing. I hope your burn feels better.
maiyavel, I have read that toe walking "could" be a concern, but most will probably grow out of it. If your ped is not worried, go with it for awhile. If his foot seems stiff, might be worth it to go see a specialist.
Burk, sounds like you had a great 4th!
TGuy and I had a great vacation. Mostly spent relaxing. Shockingly, while I missed Amelia, I didn''t really MISS her insanely. I guess I knew she''d be fine and my mom had it under control. And Amelia didn''t even know we were gone. She did seem happy to see us though.
Nothing new with her. She''s still not walking. And the ATTITUDE she was missing her first year? It''s coming on full force now!

Janine--
That''s great about the good scan.
Anyway, J has the same walker that Tacori posted.
Like M, she didn''t like it though she likes to play w/ the accessories (trunk, ignition, roller, etc).
I think it has alot to do w/ how tall and what type of walker the baby is.
J''s stride is pretty big (she doesn''t take baby steps), so when she walk w/ it, her feet hit the base.
And it''s hard for her legs sit at a weird angle when she use it as a rider -- kind of like a big kid on a little kid''s bike.
You should just take C to the toy store and test it out.
Puffy--
J is still not 100%.
It''s the weirdest bug she''s got. She''s herself in the morning, but then lethargic and grawky in the afternoon to night.
And she''s not eating her normal food. Been eating only snacks (junk food).
QT--
I think we need to whack you and hubby on the back of the head.
What belly? That washboard belly is way smaller than my non-preggo belly!
You look terrific....so tiny and slim!

Tgal--glad you had a nice vacay. Sorry to hear you were sick, but maybe that forced you to chill. I am so looking fwd to my 4 days in NYC at the end of the month. I hope i am just like you and just miss, but not MISS the little dude.
I''ve got a crawler with an attitude too--and he wears boots.
Qtie--you obviously aren''t one of those women who looks big fast the second time around. You look identical!!
to the gang--hope everyone is well. Same old around here. Had a busy w/e (threw a shower for a friend) and had my first *really* late night out in a long time. No joke, i am still recovering--sheesh, i feel old.

qt, you are the cutest, tiniest little preggo ever!
TGal, glad you had a nice vacation. Can you believe that we''ve still never left Lily alone overnight? It''s kind of gross. Not really by choice--we never did it when she was younger and now that there''s 2 of them, it''s kind of tough on the grandparents who are a little bit older to handle an infant and a toddler. Ugh, I can''t wait to do it though!
Nothing major going on in our neck of the woods. Lily is just being crazy Lily. She has actually been sleeping in her big girl bed and not getting up during the night which is pretty great. She is still calling everyone Miss and talking non-stop. She asked me for a QUESADILLA yesterday!
The girl is a sponge--we have to be so careful about what we say in front of her! Lucy is still my rockstar baby. She is cruising and can stand unassisted for a few seconds before she falls down. She just started saying "hi" all the time which is super cute and very funny because that was Lily''s first word at 9 months as well and we see how she turned out!
So life is hectic but good. We''re off to DC tomorrow--I have to go for work so I made it a little family vacay for us. Pray for me and DH in a car with 2 kids for 5 hours!!!!

qt you look great!!! i hear ya on the bloat, i''m totally not getting bloated either. when i go to bed, my belly looks the same as when i wake up. but i must say that i''m kinda excited for my belly to get bigger to bring out the maternity clothes.
tgal glad that you guys had a great vacay. sounds like miss amelia is turning into quite the toddler with her attitude!! there are days where i just don''t know what to do with B when he gets crazy, but i don''t give in, and he''ll eventually come to me and try to make me happy so i''m not mad at him. really, that''s what he says, "i want to make mommy happy, not mad."
lili poor J. hope she''s back to normal soon. so she must be sleeping very well at night then?
jas12 how is your little man?
here''s a 15 week belly pic... forgive the background. i had just went to the gym and was picking up a friend so i asked her to snap a pic really pic in her kid''s playroom.

Quick drive by to say, Puffy & QT you guys look great!!
puffy, We''re doing great, thanks for asking. Still have a lot to unpack,
we''re already feeling the house is too small with all the stuff in it. We''re thinking
of let little B try whole milk again when he turn 18 months. You look great, how you feeling?
sorry to hear about the sun burn.
QT, little B is on soy milk mixed with soy formula (for the extra calories)
I''m so jealous of you, when I was 10 weeks I looked so bloated.

Thanks ladies. That''s why I felt so silly saying that I have a big belly, but I did feel like I had a big belly IRL before looking at the pic.
puffy
You look GREAT!!! Just a tiny bump.
I know what you mean about being excited for the belly to get bigger. I just really don''t like this in between stage.
lili
Sorry J is still not 100% yet. I hope she gets rid of that bug soon.
Tgal
Amelia''s attitude is coming full force now, huh? I guess there''s no skipping it.
Curly
Lily and Lucy are doing great. Now you have two geniuses.
Bobo
ic... Is the pedi still worry about little B''s weight?
I don''t think you can ever have a big enough house. Well unless you have a mansion.

qt and puffy-you gals look darling...totally cute preggo''s.
tgal-too funny about Amelia showing some attitude. jake is figuring out he has an opinion and letting us know as well.
lli-I hope little J is feeling better. Jake has had a runny nose and cough..no fever which is good but I feel bad for him when he''s sick.
i hope all the mommies are doing well. seems like all of us with toddlers in tow don''t have much computer time these days. with my kids all out of school I''m going full speed ahead all day long...I''m loving it though and wouldn''t trade being able to spend the summer playing and swimming with them for anything.

thanks gals!! i didn''t realize in the pic i definitely do see a bump, but no complaints. at least i am not as big as i thought i was.
mrsS sounds like you have your hands full with the kids, but glad that you are enjoying every minute of it. i hope jake feels better. poor guy,
curly sounds like the girls are doing so well!!!
bobo i''m feeling pretty good these days, no complaints. thanks for asking. i like to think that my house is pretty big, but there is never enough room, so it''s only natural to feel that way. i hope little B is able to take the whole milk at 18 months. how is his weight gain going?
qt haha, i went shopping for more maternity clothes today and the lady asked if i needed a gift receipt, even though i was wearing a pretty tight tank top. and when i wanted to try some stuff on, she was like, is your friend going to meet you here? then i told her i was preggo, and she couldn''t believe it, which i like to think was a compliment, in some strange way. you are so teeny tiny, definitely don''t even look like you are preggo but super cute!!

...
My boy has fully discovered the power of NO and is using it for everything...and i mean everything. the only thing he agreed to yesterday was a trip to his Nona''s (only b/c he gets a muffin there each visit). Full defiance in every other aspect of the day.
God grant me patience....

Hey ladies! I am so far behind. Just wanted to let you all know I am still hanging in there. There has been some irritating moments but there always are!
T is fussier than at home. I think b/c she is getting up earlier here (noise, light, different surroundings...) We tried to take her to the mall yesterday. BIG mistake. MIL just said "well, I didn''t leave the house with my kids when they were young." Alrighty. We are leaving Sunday even though DH mentioned staying even LONGER. I yelled at him so now I guess I am in control of our departing day.
10 days is LONG enough IMHO. Even more so now that his parents live near us so it is not like they can only see us a few times a year. Tessa doesn''t sleep in the car anymore
so I am not looking forward to the ride home. She likes PLAYING with the neck pillow but doesn''t quite get it yet. Speaking of getting it...she seems to be understanding SOOOO much more. It is crazy what a difference a week can make. She is also talking a lot more "pool, Sadie (their dog), come on, alright" are just a few of her new words. I swear she also said "that''s okay" last night but I can never REALLY tell. DH has only golfed a couple times. Too many guests I guess. He he actually on an overnight jetski trip so don''t feel bad for him! He gets "his" time everyday but I guess the days of 18 holes of golf AND time on the lake are over. Hey, I am NOT complaining!
Hope everyone is doing well. I will try to catch up later. Q and Puffy, you two look great!!!

okay, well we are back from the dr. Jake is 23 lbs and 30.5 inches tall. he hits right at the 25% for boys all the way around. Dr. said he''s doing great and they tested him again for the anemia and it came back normal
. they asked me if he was waving bye and right on cue he waved at the nurse and then blew her kisses
he only needed one shot today too which was nice. this was my first visit back to my regular doc since moving home and that was so nice too. they moved to a new location and it''s beautiful inside . we have to go back to indy this weekend for my BIL''s wedding and I''m so not looking forward to the 8 hours in the car....

Awwww..cute!!
I love it when babies are so friendly and outgoing.
J is like Ms Ice to strangers.
She''ll give people them cold stare.
That''s great that his anemia is gone.
Sounds like Jake is

lili haha, that is so funny that J says no to everything but a ball. B''s new toy in his toddler bed...a BIG old ball that he refuses to go to bed without. funny thing is that he will take the ball with him when he wakes up and goes for a nap, he even tries to take it into the bath.
mrsS sounds like jake is doing well. is he feeling any better? so cute that he waved bye and blew kisses right when that''s what the doc was asking about.
hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!!

Puffy--
It''s not a ball....she calls one of those Japanese puff snacks ''kimi balls'' ball ball.
Haha, that''s too funny about B and the ball.
Brings to mind Tom Hank and Wilson in ''Castaway''
haha, i am so DUMB!!! i would love to blame my preggo brain, but it seriously was just me! haha!!! i used to eat those snacks all the time until i had to start to fight for them with B. haha. well at least she''s eating, i guess. it''s been awhile, we need some pics of J!!
