    She gets compliments on them all the time!
    And she has a real olive complexion.
    She always gets compliments on that too.

    After eating his cereal last night, Xavier went to sleep at 9:00pm and didn't wake up until 4:45am.

    That, my friends, is a new sleep record. 7 hours 45 minutes.

    Dare I say, are we turning a corner?

    That's great PBM! It's so nice when they start getting more sleep. Unfortunately Riley was up most of the night with a stuffy nose and cough. She seems back to normal today though! Hopefully it's not strep. It's been going around these parts.
    I love this thread! All the happy parents. It's wonderful!

    I hope he is for your sake.
    But you know what they say about counting chickens... :D
    I know Adria like a big bowl of cereal with some fruit in it before she goes to bed. A full tummy will keep them going.

    SHE'S WALKING!!!!! :D

    I will post some updates/read what I've missed on this thread later tonight, but I just had to share the news with you all! :)

    She can take about 3 steps at a time and move between our sofa and our love seat. She did it yesterday for the first time, and has been doing it consistently ever since.

    I'm excited, but also a little sad. I feel like I'm losing my little helpless baby more and more every day. But there is so much to look forward to! :)

    how insane are the first few months?? i just had my second child (after 12 years...) and i had fortunately forgotten how hard these early days are, otherwise i probably would've balked at having another child! i'm exhausted, tho of course he is my joy. he's the sweetest little baby, even at 3:30am!

    I hear ya! it is crazy! pretty much it is all her. If she wakes me up i feed her and I even work in the morning, but it is true, babies are worth all the exhaustion when you look into their little eyes :D

    Congrats!!!

    I look forward to that day, but it's so convenient to put him in his Bouncy Chair or his Swing while I do a few quick chores. ;)

    That first week or two was rough...I didn't know what the hell I was doing...holidays...lots of family visiting...crying baby...lack of sleep. During that time, I thought, "This is it...no more kids for us". As we've gotten into a groove and I've started to figure things out more...I've lightened up on that stance. ;)

    an update on my little Chloe. My boyfriend took her to the doctor, and now she weighs 10 lbs. and is 22 1/2 inches long. :) She looks tiny but is getting heavy :p My boyfriend and I both decided not to give her shots, since we did some research on it and a lot of it contains a lot of toxic chemicals like mercury and famaldhide (the chemical they use for embalming) and we didn't want that inside her little body. We thought our doctor would push him into getting the shots, but nope. he was cool about it saying 'good for you' :)

    she is already smiling and giggling. I can't wait til she walks so we can take her to the park and play hide-and-seek :p Kids. They are so wonderful :D

    Isn't she going to eventually get immunization shots to go to pre-school/elementary school? Thumbs up to you guys for standing your ground and looking out for her.

    We had to get Xavier shots before he went into daycare. Another con about the daycare process...but what can you do.

  • Not sure about in the US, but up here (in Ontario at least Im sure its the same across the country) kids are not allowed in school until they have had all their shots. If they havnt had chicken pox but hte age of 5, they must also get a chicken pox vaccine. The Waterloo Region Public Health unit found thousands of kids who were behind on their shots and were suspended from school until they were up to date.

    Ive NEVER EVER felt comfortable getting all those shots for Joey since I dont like the chemical concoction that they are made from. But alas, he wouldnt be in school right now if I hadn't done it. Also several daycare centres also require all children to be current with thier shots.

    heh, sounds like Im talking about a pet or something.

    We asked our doctor about immunization and a link to autism. He was very adamant that they was no link between the two and our child would be better served getting the shots.

    Xavier got his first round about a month ago and his is going great. He goes in for his second set in about 2 weeks.

    I used to work in daycare and we had a little girl that was in my class that did not have any of her shots.

    There's a paper that can be filled out by the doctor and the school district.

    So, meddle, it's possible that you could never have to give Chloe shots and she could still go to school too.

    It'd be worth checking into.

    Congrats! I know the feeling. I looked at Jack just the other day and asked him where the little baby went. He went from never wanting to be put down to never wanting to be held overnight. Now he just wants to play with his many toys on the floor, crawl around, take a few steps here and there, and (GASP) climb the stairs, his new favorite thing to do, not that we let him do it much, or alone. Hard to believe he'll be 1 Friday
