Susana walking at 9 months! YAY! After Morgan's first step is was about a week till she was comfy walking, get ready!
   Yes I know, where to put all the people! I have 20 adults and 6 kids coming over Sunday for my angels bday! STRESSED I am!! lol I guess with her being sick and well Im late. Im 6 days late to be exact, maybe from stress but I dont know!!! I think Morgan is getting better, lastnight she was up from 12 am - 3 am though, think it is the medicine...then she woke up at 6 am. My DH and I havent slept in like over 24 hours. Then this morning we went to her cardioligist, after a long day there we left with good news. The valve in heart with the leak, has stopped leaking. Dr gives her a thumb up. So hopefully after a good nights sleep Morgan should be all better and I can go back to getting my tiny house ready for her first bday!!! Doing a simple Care Bears theme...she has this Care Bears push and ride toy (how she learned how to walk so quickly) and she loves the care bears songs. After dinner tonight around 7pm she fell asleep in her high chair, Im gonna have to post the pics! She never has fallen asleep anywhere random like that, she is so tired from the Dr's and coughing all night. How do we do it moms? How do we stay so strong for our babies? Sorry for such a random post, Im sleepy!  :wink:

Night ladies! Thanks for listening!

Hi, I don't know if it's Connor's molars coming through or if he has a cold.
He acts fine, he still play and eats, but cannot sleep due to a runny/congested nose.  No fever.

Any suggestions?  I've heard some kids can get cold like symptoms during teething, but he's never had it before..

Any tips for making him more comfortable.  Every hour on the hour last night he would wake up and couldn't get him comfortable, I'd have to rock him each time...I'm tired.

Well, as if today wasn't bad enough, I hadn't lowered Connors crib yet, as he had made no attempts to pull himself up anywhere.

Guess what??  He knows how to pull himself into a standing position...He discovered this when he dived out of his crib!...he wasn't hurt...scared him a little...Scared me a lot!!!...he has been obsessed with pulling himself up on anything all afternoon!!!

We are in for another rough few days...I finally got my finger into his mouth to see what's going on...Both first molars at the bottom are coming through..one's 1/2 through, the other is a sharp edge under the surface.  And, the two first molars on the top display red, hard swollen gums, therefore, it won't be long 'till they start erupting.  That means 10 teeth in the next couple of days, and 12 teeth in the next week or two...What a set!!!...the funny thing is he still really doesn't know how to use them!...

Alli - Thanks.  I have thought of that because my babysitter has a friend whose child was allergic to red food dye too.  I think that might have explained Wed night since that decongestant had some kind of dye.  But last night she was up from 1:30 until 4:00 and I didn't give her medicine with dye??  I don't know.

Jodi - Glad Morgan's feeling better and yeah for the good news about her heart.  I'm sure you were relieved to hear that.

Jilly- I hope the molars come through fast for your sake and Connor's.  I'm starting to wonder if that's what's wrong with Susana.  She won't let me in there to feel around.  I have no suggestions on the sleeping since we aren't getting much of it around here.Susana seems to already be over her cold.  I don't know what's waking her now.  I just wish she'd sleep!

Jilly ~ I put a pillow uner Morgan'a mattress to elivate it. Got a vickes vaporizer in her room at night. baby vicks on her shoulder but I still had to go in there adn settle her after a coughing fit. I know how ya feel, trust me. Today is a week since ive been doing this. Lastnight it ttook me 2 hours for her to let me even put her in her crib.  But after she was asleep she just woke up once at 3! Then slept till 6:45. Hang in there hun, Im here to talk. I know that after a week of not sleeping I needed friends to keep me sain!!!! Good luck.

Happy birthday Morgan!  I'm sure that Morgan had fun with the cake. 

Well we made another trip to Chicago this weekend.  Sleep didn't go as well but we made it through.  She was very happy to make it home and get out of the car.  Just so much driving this month.  I think that we should start working on sleeping through the night without eating, but I just don't know if I am up for it.  I would just love for her to be sleeping through the night without me having to go in her room everynight.  Is anyone else still feeding at night? 

Good luck with sleep tonight!  I am praying for a better night!

jill-yikes, molars already!  hope that goes fast.  as for the congestion, gianna has never been sick, but when she was first born she had major congestion, normal for c-section babies i guess.  we elevated her mattress and used a humidifier.  these both seemed to help.

jodi-glad to hear about morgan's heart.  you must be relieved.  and the pics were adorable!  she is precious.  glad she was up to partying for her big party.  who did the elmo pumpkin?  and is that you holding her in the pic over the cake? 

momtoree-we dropped the night feeding at 3.5 months so i don't have much advice.  it may be easier than you think though, so maybe just give it a try (on the weekend!)  good luck.

phoebe-don't really know what to say about susana's sleep issues.  i know you are consistent in your sleep training, so maybe check her routine.  have you tried to just break down everything she does/eats and try to see if there is a pattern that affects her sleep?  does she only have sleep difficulty on week nights when she has been at the sitter's all day?  is the sitter keeping accurate records of her naps and day in general?  does she write everything down?  (i did this when i was a nanny and still do it with gianna; it seems to really help pinpoint problems when they come up.)  also, my cousin's little girl is super sensitive to dyes.  she is on  the feingold diet...i hope i am spelling that right.  it really helps her sleep and behavior in general.   

noelle- i keep forgetting to tell you i love the new avatar!  just as funny and cute as the last extreme close up of zoe!!

My mothers boyfriend carved pumpkins for all the kids, we did that instead of a goody bag. Yes that is me holding her! I got some sleep lastnight!! But it seems I have to start all over, she is needing to be rocked to sleep after being sick for almost 2 weeks. Hope this training goes well again!

Hello mommies of year old (or almost year old) babies!

I am going to a 1st bday party on Sunday.  Could you please help me and advise on some good toys/books that I can give as gifts for this age.

I am also attempting my first scrapbooking page and I'm going to frame it in an 8.5x11 frame as part of the gift as well.

thanks for any suggestions.

Morgan's favorite gift was  magnet..this its from leapfrog. The baby puts the letters in it and it tells you what letter, like C - it says CAT! C.A.T
