Re: Hey June/July 2008 mommys -

Here are our answers:

DC Name: Ryan

DC Age: 11 days shy of 8 months

Last Well Visit Stats: We go for our 7 month well visit Friday. But, at his 6 month check up he was 19.8 and 27"

Most Recent Milestones: Pulled to standing today. Too bad he still doesn't crawl. And no words as of yet, but if you ask my dad he is convinced Ryan can say "hi"

Likes: All fruit and Peanut our dog

Dislikes: Peas but I make him eat them anyway

Sleeping Habits: Finally sleeping through the night in the crib as of 2 weeks ago. We were cosleeping until then. Naps are still a disaster but I am trying to stick with it.

Ready for #2? Now that he is out of our bed I am ready to at least consider it. Gratefully I haven't gotten AF yet. But I wouldn't actually discuss it until he is a year and weaned from the Breast. DH would wait 3 years, but I'm gonna work him!

Can't really thing of anything else to add at the moment

Re: Hey June/July 2008 mommys -

DC Name: Jacen

DC Age: 7 1/2 months (june 30th)

Last Well Visit Stats: 15 lbs 9 ounces, don't remember the height (this was at the end of december).

Most Recent Milestones: Sitting. Still waiting for him to say mama/dada.

Likes: our dog Jedi, to be thrown in the air, to be tickled, thinks it's hysterical when mommy has the hiccups and absolutely loves his daddy.

Dislikes: being on his tummy and anything else he dislikes... boy does he let you know it!

Sleeping Habits: Horrible, horrible, horrible. Once we did CIO, they were good. THen he got sick. More CIO. then he got sick again and we're on round #3 of CIO.

Ready for #2? Ask me again in 3 years!

Re: Hey June/July 2008 mommys -

DC Name: Timmia

DC Age: a few days shy of 7 months (2/16)

Last Well Visit Stats: at her 6 month appt she was 19lbs 27and a 1/2 inches

Most Recent Milestones: She rocks on all fours, goes backward she can now pull herself up to sitting did this yesterday for the first time she stands up but you have to put her to stand and she holds on
ETA: She waves bu bye but doe snot get that its the same gesture for hello she looks at me funny when i say hello and wave my hand.

Likes: playing with her toys and the door knob and the remotes

Dislikes:bananas, too much tummy time she gets frustrated that she crawls backward and gives up especially when reaching for her favorite toy (the remote-see above)

Sleeping Habits: Sleeps through the night once she gets her last bottle at 10:30 -11pm. She used to go to bed at 8pm now of late its more like 9:-9:30 Naps are a disaster

Ready for #2? (or 3 or 4 as the case may be ) DH and I always said we wanted one...I don't know but I'll see I did not care too much about being pregnant (had a good pregnancy) and the labor. If I do decide it would be to give Timmia a siblling they can always look out for each other

Round 3?! Oh my goodness. Poor kid (and mommy) can't catch a break!
