Im sure we are still missing some babies on the first page.


We have travelled this week again.
Adria was really good on the plane too.
Im not looking forward to the trip home though.
I flew out with Adria, but hubby comes tomorrow. Hes bringing the 2 border collies in the Civic/
And we all get to drive back across canada in that civic together.
Eric and I in the front. Adria nd 2 dogs in the back.
Yeeee Haaawwww!

Did you buy a seat for Adria or did you hold her on your lap?

I made the HORRIBLE mistake of holding Annabelle on my lap when I flew from Philly to St. Louis at Easter and I will never do it again...lol. It was a 4 hour trip (including the layover, during which we didn't leave the plane) and it was the longest 4 hours of my life! She didn't want to sit, she wanted to stand. Then she wanted to climb. Then she wanted to get on the floor. Then she wanted to tear up the in-flight magazine. Then she wanted to stand up on me again. Then she wanted to play with my glasses. It never stopped. SHE never stopped!

She is such a good baby, but from the moment she wakes up until she goes to sleep, she is constantly moving! lol... She is a great traveler, though, when she has her own seat. She likes to look out the window.

I have to come up with a great mother's day gift for PBW. I don't have a lot of money to spend on a gift, so any suggestions would be grand.

I am going to get her this T-Shirt too.



PBM

Awww, very clever PBM As far as suggestions go, I don't know what is your price range, but I would suggest a gift certificate for a free massage. I don't know how much those cost...I know some that are reasonable priced.

Thats awesome PBM!

For my first mother's day, Krohn got me a mousepad with all the cutest baby pictures (which was hard to sort through for him lol) we had at the time.
It was affordable and I love it still.

Well, my boyfriend's mom is in town, we went to Target to get some baby stuff for Chloe. We now got a Boppy Playing Mat, a high chair (for later) a swing and some 25 oz of Soy formula, and 3 boxes of diapers! *sighs* that was really sweet of her to get all that stuff for us, b/c I know b/t my boyfriend and I, we couldn't buy all of that stuff in one visit. :( Chloe just LOVES her place mat, now we don't have to put her in the stroller anymore

I was wondering, when do babies start eating solids (i.e. cereal) is that the 4 month?

now I am going to start putting together her swing so when she wakes up from her nap, she'll have another thing to play with

8 more weeks until my boy is here. Ultrasound shows that he has chest hair, is well versed in mixed martial arts, and spends most of his free time masturbating. He takes after his father....

That is so awesome that your bf's mom took you to target! We have relied heavily on help from our families since we had Annabelle, so I know what it feels like when someone helps you out like that. It feels like you've won the lottery, lol. I'm sure she will enjoy the play mat!

Our pediatrician told us we could start on rice cereal at 4 months and then fruits and veggies at 6 months. Some doctors prefer that you wait until 6 months to do any solids. Honestly, we fed her very little cereal until the 6 month mark. Up until that time, it was more just like "practicing" eating with a spoon every couple of days. She really didn't like the rice cereal until I started adding a little bit of the stage 1 fruits to it.

I would just check with the doctor and see what she/he thinks you should do. Sometimes, depending on the child's weight, they will suggest starting it sooner or later.
