Friday Night Leftovers....the "It's Saturday" edition!
Looks like lots of people had a late run on leftovers this week. Swing over to Sippy cups to see what was on the menu.
(WTF IS WITH BLOGGER ON THE IPAD SCRUNCHING ALL MY LINES TOGETHER? I think I hate blogger)
* K has an odd way of measuring my abilities to play with her. Hr big thing over the past few weeks has been to ask to see my belly button. She will ask over and over "is your belly button in yet?". It didn't make sense until she explained that once my belly button was in I would be able to give her piggy back rides...ahh it all makes sense now
* She has also been very competitive lately. I hear a lot of "I winned you losed!".
* It has been over 100 degrees here for the past 3 days. We don't have AC in our house,other than window units in our bedrooms. So we have spent a huge amount of time at my MIL's house. I caved and went in the pool before my 6 week appt. There was no way I was sitting there and not swimming in that heat. Fingers crossed I don't get a weird infection now.
* Over those 3 days K has become a very strong and confident swimmer. She wears her life jacket or swimmie's and can swim back and forth across the pool multiple times, tread water, and jump in from the side. I hope to gather swimming sans the aids by the end of summer.
* S is a super duper cry baby. Although the past 3 days he's been really good. Don't get me wrong, we've had more good than bad days, but when he has a bad day, it's REALLY BAD!
* I have been researching Colic and treatments for it. I found a lot of info on Pediatric Chiropratic adjustments. I just so happen to be going to the Chiro this week and discussed it with him and he gave me the info for a Chiro he brings his 4 month old daughter to. I am bringing S on Monday morning to be evaluated. What I can find is that babies born under traumatic or stressful circumstances often have a misaligned spine, hips, shoulders, etc which can cause pain and result in an overly fussy/cranky baby. What can it hurt right?
* Because of his crankiness I have been wearing him in the Moby a lot. This has tweaked my back. Hence my visit to the Chiro. My X-rays showed some scoliosis in my lower back and neck. This resulted in me being prescribed a 3 day a week for 9 week program to correct. Ugh
* I had 2 nights out this week! T and I went to NoHo to see Matthew Sweet. We were out/away from both kids for 7 hours. S was miserable and cried for a good 4 of those, but GiGi handled it. The other one was last night. I met one of my girlfriends for a couple of martini's and conversation. It was awesome. (It also helped that S slept for order 5 hrs straight last night and then went back down for another 3!)
* Only 2 weeks left out of work. I am starting to get anxious....in a bad way
* K doesn't say J's. She pronounces them as G's. I need to find some speech exercises to work on this. There is a little girl at the pool that she loves, her name is Julie but K calls her Goolia. T's best friend is Uncle Jon, known by ask as Uncle Gon. Her new thing she says is "I am Goking with you" vs. Joking.
* S does not sleep at all unless he is both swaddled AND wearing a hat. Weird child.
* I need to go shower and eat something now cause I am off to the dentist in a couple hours to have a filling resurfaced. That means no eating for me for several hours after since I require enough novacaine to numb an elephant!

Sounds like K is doing awesome in the pool. A is 5 and just starting to swim without a vest here and there.
No A/C - I cannot do without
I am jealous about the pool. I need to figure out how to get ahold of a pool for my boys. Going to a public pool does not sound appealing though. :(
Interesting about he chiro. I hope it helps. I know it makes me feel better when I go, so it makes sense it could help the baby (and you)!
I immediately though of the Wedding Singer and Julia Gulia. :)
B says b sounds for lots of words, like bessert (dessert). I haven't researched any exercises though, not that she would listen to me, so if you find any good speech therapy sites, please make sure you post them.
Can't wait to hear about the chiro appointment.
