kate - im on my butt nursing, too! all day it seems! someone told me recently that a baby his age doesn't really need to nurse more than every 4-5 hours... tell that to JJ! yet another day that got away from me yesterday. i expect a nap any minute now for 2-3 hours but must workout and shower before trying you... we shall see!
candra - only 5 lbs to go, woohoo! and i am avoiding even reading about kbells cuz its one more thing i will want to own lol =) i remember with my oldest being so frustrated during little league season because our schedule was all off re: dinner, homework, etc. but now i look back on it so fondly, beautiful spring nights watchin the kiddos have a blast!
becky, i think you are surrounded by boxes right now... sending best wishes to you in your new home! the easiest part of childproofing is what yr doing now, setting up in safe way, so ditto what lisa said. IMO the hard part is all the STUFF they want to get into... your pile of papers, coffee cup, lipstick, things that might be around and in a split second they are right on it! dont forget some kind of cover (or latched doors) for your electronics... little fingers or cheerios in dvd player = not so good! oh, and tuck away cords well (give thought to this in how you set up your furniture and electronics), a lamp can come crashing down on them when they tug on it.
hi lisa, maggie, clarissa, steph, kyye...
so no crying during the going to bed process last night but thats because i took a totally different approach... just laid on the bed with him cuddling until he fell asleep. it was so peaceful and beautiful and i think it was more for me than anything, just needed a break from all that screaming. but there is no way i can do this every night so must come up with a plan. he still woke up screaming later in the night but i have to quiet him (nursing or other) because our downstairs neighbor most certainly is not ok with the cio method, lol.
yesterday was a rest day for me and only a brief walk because it was raining. today, more rain, boo. but coming up is sunny and 70s!!!!! having ppl for dinner saturday so i need the clear day to walk to supermarket tomorrow. why i offered to host with my husband away i do not recall...
