Hey ladies!!! (so Beastie Boys
SO...where to begin?
Welcome back Nancy. I say don't worry about catching up if you can't just jump right back in
Judy dh and I loved your comments on discipline. I definately agree. Although I am sure it will be a challenge, as everything else has been.
I too would love a point by point on pu pd...I want one for my friend when I go back to work (and dh could probably use it too).
I have a mini dh rave since I am usually ranting...I thought I'd take this opportunity to rave...
Anyhow, last night after dd was asleep, I went out for a few groceries. When I got to the store, I realized I had left my wallet at home :oops: How long can I use the mommy-brain excuse??? Anyhow, I came back to get it, I was on the phone this whole time too, so I came in the door, quietly said to dh, "It's me I forgot my wallet" and he very quietly said back "OK"..I thought he sounded a bit strange but figured maybe he had fallen asleep. So I left.. When I got home he explained that Sophie had woken up screaming the house down (Love that expression
and he went in to her picked her up bounced her (argh!) and she let out a huge burp, so he treid to put her back down but she started screaming again so he picked her back up and walkwed with her for a minute until she started to settled. As he was putting her back down again, he said she puked all over the bed! So, he had to take the sheets off etc, then put her back down...anyhow, I guess I came homw in the middle of all of this...I was amazed he didn't say "Hey..please stay and help!" He's pretty self-sufficient/confident with dd, I like that.
Ankie, adorable pictures of Arwyn and you too!!! SHe looks so much like both of you. Too cute.
Jody, was it you who said dh works for Roush racing? DH is a huge fan of Nascar!!! Actually Brendan kinda got into it and sucked daddy in with him...dh is actually on the comp upstairs watching the updates..poor guy no cable here so he cdan't watch the race
Traci, I'm game on the address thing too....although I haven't gotten myself togtehr yet to do the cards/pics...I think I am going to have Shutterfly do the whole kaboodle.
Hey ANkie, question for you, and any one else who has input. We have been working with Sophie on the signs for milk and all done and more. But mostly milk. She has started to do the milk sign but it sweems like she kind of does it all the time not necessarily just when she wants milk. Is this normal? Do you think she actually knows what she's doing or is she just clenching her hand? We try to reinforce it when she does it by oferring her milk or at least showing it to her?? I don't really know how to do it though because we have been doing water in the sippy cup and I don't really want to give her a bottle while she's in her highchair if she asks for milk....anyhow...any suggestions? Does Arwyn sign for milk even when she doesn't really want it? what do you do?
OK, I guess that's it for now.
Talk to you later ladies.
