Yesterday I had a visit with the OB. Brandon was so active he sounded like a galloping horse over the doppler. We're just two peas in a pod since I'm walking around like a cowboy. He is doing great and Mommy was given magic pills to make her Braxton Hicks Contraction go away. We still have a ton of pelvic pressure (the joys of low babies) but our exam shows no signs of early labor. Yay!! In short, I am suppose to slow down. Is that even possible with a toddler? I guess that means it's Daddy's job to do the chasing at night.
Trey has figured out how to truly throw a tantrum. No more carefully laying down on the floor and whimpering softly with his tushy wiggling in the air. No, we now stand in the middle of the room, throw our head back and screams so loud I am sure someone is going to call CPS. Luckily, he figures out we are not going to give in and he calms himself down pretty fast moving on with his day. Who would have guessed the color of his sippy cup could matter so much.
He is also mastering crawling down the stairs all by himself. He can do it, it's more a matter of Mommy can no longer carry him up or down the stairs. He is also now walking up the stairs holding a hand on the wall instead of crawling up the stairs. We are still working on potty training but it is coming along nicely.
Trey's Hideout!
I am currently sorting, washing and hanging all of the 0-6 month clothing. I still need to make room in the "kids" cabinet for the bottles and sort our baby supplies. It is looking like we are pretty set for the newest member of our family but this morning I began a list of items we need to buy over the next few months. Isn't it amazing how much less you need after the first one?! Having another boy makes it even easier. With the first one being a summer baby I am thinking it's just a matter of a few key items to make outfits a tad warmer, especially since I already have things like a double stroller.
I'd really appreciate it if a few of you beautiful Mamas would
take a look and give me a few pointers. I really have no idea what I need for a winter newborn!
