McKinley Eleven Months Old






One more month and she will be ONE!!! I thought it flew by with Wyatt but I was wrong, this year has gone by so very fast! She is changing very fast!

*SLEEPING: Still a great sleeper, not always a very long sleeper but I can't complain. She will pretty much put herself to sleep for naps and night time and she will sleep all night. She still likes a warm bottle before naps and bed and loves her bunny blankie.

*SCHEDULE: 7am: wakeup and bottle/8:30am: breakfast/9:ish: 8oz bottle and am nap/11:30am: lunch/1:30ish: 8oz bottle and nap/6:00pm dinner/7:15pm: 8oz bottle and bed

*EATING: she has always been a picky eater. She loves to eat pancakes and waffles just like her brother did. Some other things she will eat: pizza/yogurt/cinnamon type oatmeal babyfoods/green beans/oranges/puffs/graham crackers/ritz crackers/cheerios/bread/turkey
She is not a huge fan of babyfood and will rarely eat it.

*Loves the Wiggles- I find this funny because Wyatt loved them at this age too. She will turn her head as soon as she hears them come on. She will crawl close to the TV so she can see it and doesn't move until its over. She loves the episode with the song "Uncle Noah's Ark." It cracks me up because she will move her hands like they do and will try to make the animal sounds.

*She is starting to pick up the sign for "more"

*Waving bye bye more and more

*Loves to get into the cabinets and play with the doors

*Likes to swing but doesn't like to touch the grass- Wyatt was the same way.

*Will give Kisses!! Open mouth kisses-the best kind:)

*Clapping and dancing when she hears music or her brother sings to her

*Likes the "itsy bitsy spider." Will move her hands when she hears it.

*pulling up on EVERYTHING and cruising the furniture

*VOCAB: still saying: mama/dada/. Started saying what I think sounds like "baby". Will also make a sound like a dog, when you ask her what a dog says. Not really a bark but an "arf,arf, arf." Its cute. She is babbling more and more.

She has stolen our hearts with her sweet personality. We just love her to pieces!

All night long

As I sit here pumping in bed at 3:30 in the morning, I wonder how I got my little one to sleep all night long in his crib! I'm watching wiggle and move on the baby monitor and thank God that he can now sleep all night with no help! Me on the other hand, well I'm trying to keep that milk supply up and create a supply for when we go out of town. When will my days of All Night Long come? - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone

We all need friends

I remember almost a year ago when a good friend of mine invited me to a lunch group, Friday's at noon. At that time in my life I needed it! I needed to get out and meet new friends, other ladies with children about the same age, going through the same thing. This was a life saver for me. I am not a very outgoing person and it's hard to make friends when you don't have a full time job. Long story made short.... I made some GREAT friends in that group. As all good things to do though, things changed, people moved on and life became a little crazy for all of us. So the lunch group is starting up again and even though some people have left, we have some new faces to get to know! Wednesday a couple of us went out for a ladies night out and it was great! Two new people for me to get to know and I feel like I have made two new life long friends. It's so refreshing to just have a night out with the ladies and yes, we may spend the whole night talking about our babies and what t

First trip to the ER

Image
Yesterday was a day of firsts! First time to try to potty training and first trip to the ER. Here is how we ended up there..... He woke up feeling good and we had a nice start to potty training! He didn't eat a lot of breakfast but some days he does and others he doesn't so I didn't think much about it. When lunch time rolled around he still didn't eat. He then became very cranky and uninterested in the potty thing so I let my dad take him up for his nap. He normally goes down pretty easy but today he didn't. He said that his tummy hurt and couldn't get comfortable. He finally fell asleep but didn't stay asleep long. He moved all around and cried out a couple times then finally woke up. He was NOT himself. He cried and wanted to be held. Then all of a sudden he would be fine. Then minutes later he would say his tummy hurt, then drop to his knees and cry and move around trying to get comfortable. It was so sad. My parents wanted him to spend the night si
