Thanks Lauren about Robin. I must have missed that. My MIL does weird things like that with Mason too. It always bugged me that she doesn't wash her hands and ALWAYS shoved her fingers in his mouth since 4 months old to check for teeth when she could just ask me. Grrr

Gem- Gosh, It's so true. One day you don't see it then the next day you do.

You all had me laughing out loud! Between ILs sucking on baby body parts and imaginary saying it! I'm with you girls. . .don't suck on my baby please. Who thinks they will actually have to say that to people?

Judith-have you tried the sippy cup with the bottle type nipple? I have two of those for Liv and that is what I give her milk in before naps and bed. The rest of the time she uses a regular sippy. It is by Nuby. You get the cup and 3 different lids in the package.

We had a nice day yesterday. We were out in the morning. Came home, put dd down for a nap and when we got up we went to a play date. I don't know if I told you girls but a really good friend of mine from college moved in right across the street. She has a 3 1/2 year old and a 1 1/2 year old. The younger one is just 5 mos. older than dd, so they will go to school together and everything! Anyway, the girls are getting so cute together! Whenever we are out front dd tries to run to their house.

Today will be a little busy too! I'll catch up with you girls later!

Judith - WOW you have a BIG BOY NOW!!! Mason is so sweet to his mommy, so is he saying mama a lot now? Alyssa is still only saying around 6 select words, although she has said around 20 words.

Kristy - LOL Livie is too funny. So nice that you have one of your friends move in across the street! YAY!

Robin hope you enjoy having your dh home again today. How has Lela been with her daddy home?

Hi girls! I haven't been able to read yet but just wanted to say hi!

The appt yesterday went well. I'll have to tell you guys later about the funny thing Aidyn did. We don't have to go back for a year! Yay! But we have to see the urologist soon. And then we have our appt with the nutritional specialist.

So I'm trying to get ready to go. Doing laundry and packing. I'll try to catch up later but we'll see. Hope to get on while gone too but again, we'll see. I'm hoping to have coffee with Steph while there so maybe she can tell you hi from us while we're gone. Loads to do today. Hope everyone is doing well!

I'll try to be back later! Anyone want to come help me pack?!

Oh yeah, that reminds me, I still have to look up exactly where your hotel is so we can find a place, probably something on the riverwalk? I'm excited....

__________________

Lou-I love to pack!! I HATE unpacking!! So here's the deal. I'll pack for you if you unpack for me!

Tammy-Alyssa says more than Olivia and the developmental specialist said that Liv is on the low end of normal so I wouldn't worry.

Lauren - Thanks! Stephanie found it for me.

Lou- Have a fantastic time showing the girls off this weekend to the doll collectors!!

Ksh- I have tried that nipple one but because the nipple is so small and thin compared to his wide mouth nipple he won't take it an just cries. That's great your friend moved across the street.

Tammy- I think the amount of words Alyssa says is pretty standard and some of the girls on here are just way ahead on speech. Thanks again for the links. I hav ethem saved. Mason has actually been pooping this week. Every day with only 1 tsp of miralax a day. I was shocked. I have him on adult Oatmeal so maybe that is helping too?? I would rather get him on the natural stuff though.

Hi girls!!!! I miss you girls!!!!

Tammy - I wouldn't worry about Alyssa at all. I think that Lela says alot more because of having an older sibling. Madison didn't say as many words as Lela but you could never tell now lol she nevers stops talking LOL. I think that having Madison around has helped Lela with her speech.

Kristy, Robin & Judith - Thanks, I still worry though . I know I shouldnt but well we all know how it is .

Robin - We miss you too, how is your day with dh?

Im so nervous for the end of this month, Alyssa will be 15 mths and time for her checkup, Im dying inside. I dont want to get sucked into giving her the MMR. I just dont know what to do. Im going to play it safe and tell him I want to delay. But I just dont know what he is going to say, "why" I've tried not thinking about this this past month but its getting closer and closer. If I allow her to get it Im just going to feel like the worst mom on the face of the planet, and I will be watching over her again like before . Especially if she gets sick again BUT with worse symptoms than last time, gosh I feel like Im going to

Just got done preparing dinner, meatloaf & mashed potatos w/ leeks. I made them in little mini loaf pans and then I can save 4 pc's for dhs lunchs to freeze. Tomorrow or Friday will be my day again to prepare a weeks worth of lunchs for him. He told me a guy he eats lunch with at work is sooooooooooooo jealous of his lunchs each day (hehe). Dh told me his wife packs him like 2 pizza pockets... I told him ya right he probably makes his own lunch LOL.

MY girl is being a daredevil again gotta run
