Guest guest Posted October 8, 2001 Report Share Posted October 8, 2001 Kendall, Hi, I've never tried the Cheese Nuggets, but next time I'm by there.....heee heee, give me a large order!! I hope Matt and you are doing better today. I was up at 5:00 this morning, Mikaela woke up coughing a little at 5:00, the good thing is since Bob goes to bed at 8:30-9:00 he is already up for the day by 5:00--not ME! We went out with friends to a sports bar to watch the Huskers play, the kicked butt, but most of the time I wasn't paying attention and was talking to my friend . Then we were home by 10:00, and I could tell the babysitter was having trouble with Mikaela, she ended up sleeping until 1:00 then was up every hour after that. I am never drinking more than 2 beers again until she is at least 6 years old!!! I was soooo tired. But am much better after 6 hrs of un-interupted sleep, that was like heaven!! I hope your church meeting doesn't go too long. I'm off to give blood at lunch, I hope it doesn't take to long, even for a good cause my boss was less than thrilled. I'll probably have to work late or Saturday to make up for it!! I'm glad to hear your pampered chef party went well. I went to one once and the hostess handed out wine-coolers as we were doing our ordering....ummmm I think we all ordered more than we planned too. Ha Ha!!! Just a evil plan to get you more business!

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 Vicki, Matt is isn't sick anymore, just growing I think . Mommy on the other hand is miserable! My sinuses are draining so bad that I have a sore throat and I am nauseaus from all of the gunk draining into my tummy . I don't think it's an infection though, 'cause my face doesn't hurt and I haven't been having headaches. How is your sister doing? My SIL just had my nephew last night at 8:30. Lucas Allan weighed 9lbs. 4 oz. (OUCH!) and was 21 inches long. I am really excited to go see him after work.

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2001 Report Share Posted October 28, 2001 Kim, I can't believe how fast they grow. I got to hold my 3 week old nephew Lucas today and I can't even remember Mattson being that small (and Lucas was almost 2 pounds bigger than Matt when he was born!). It made me a little sad and sure made me want another one. Boy, if I was an OB nurse I think i'd have a dozen kids . Hope Christian had fun at his halloween party. I will try to post some pictures of the boys when I get them develped but I can't promise anything . Matt was just an adorable duck!

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2001 Report Share Posted October 29, 2001 Pam, Pampered Chef is going fine. I am not going to be able to do as much as I thought when I first started, but I want to keep up with it in the hopes that someday I can go back to my " real " job part time and use the Pampered Chef to supplement my income. Besides, I like the stuff and it as least helps me get the products at a discount, if not free. Kids can change a lot in terms of who they look like. When Ross was really little he looked just like Mattson does now (which means just like me !), but the older Ross gets the more he looks like his dad and the less like me. Now he looks more like his dad than me, but you can tell he's mine . Hope going cold turkey on the pumping works. I know how exhausting a new born is and you are recovering from surgery on top of it. Hang in there. It will all work out in the end.

Guest guest Posted October 29, 2001 Report Share Posted October 29, 2001 Vicki, Unfortunately I get very little down time. I do get an hour a week on Saturdays to go to water aerobics, but really that is about it ! How has it gone w/ getting Mikaela to sleep? I am pretty spoiled. Both of my boys have slept through the night by about 3 months. I have to wake Mattson up to nurse him before I leave for work (although I don't know how much longer that will be as he is losing interest in nursing now that he is on food). He is refusing baby food out of a jar, the little stinker. He wants to eat " people " food off of mommy's plate, so I have been mashing up cooked veggies. I am going to try baby food fruit this week and see if he will eat that. He loves his rice cereal mixed w/ juice. Take Care.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2001 Report Share Posted November 1, 2001 Kendall, Mikaela is the same way about food, she is always reaching for something on someone's plate. I think she'll be on people food by 9 months, but she doesn't have teeth yet, does Matt? She is loving animal crackers from Walmart (they have a HUGE bag for $1.50) and saltines. She gets pretty messy but loves gnawing on them. I can understand Matt loosing interest in nursing, he probably wants a steak to eat (ha ha) I think they loose their patience and want quantity and texture after awhile....and they want to " do it themselves " they finally figured out how to use their hands, although Mikaela is not quite talented enough to get the cheerios in her mouth, most get swept off the high chair onto the floor!

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2001 Report Share Posted November 2, 2001 Vicki, Matt doesn't have any teeth yet and although he wants food w/ texture he still has a tendency to gag on it, so I haven't even tried crackers or cheerios yet. He is eating the baby food fruit (although not all that willingly - he would still rather eat off mom's plate). Matt just wants flavor and thinks he should be able to eat whatever anyone else is eating. He even grabbed Jerry's spoon the other night while we were at a Chili cook-off! He grabs the spoon when I feed him and " helps " LOL! Matt is now down to nursing at night only . Oh well, I guess I am just not ready for my baby to start growing up. I know it wasn't as hard for me w/ Ross. Take Care Kendall Vicki Dunkle wrote: > Kendall, > Mikaela is the same way about food, she is always reaching for something > on someone's plate.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2001 Report Share Posted November 2, 2001 Dana, I have to get going for work, so this will have to be my last post of the morning, but I have preferred Huggies over Pampers (they seem to fit my boys better and I have less leaks), but now that Matt is in a larger size in an effort to save some extra money I tried the store brand at Toys R Us and like them just as much as the huggies and they are considerably cheaper. My suggestion is to just try the different brands and see what works best for Chase. I know my SIL will only use pampers.
