Moved

I have left this blog and started a new one. This was a great journey but so many links and pictures are broken that I feel like I should start fresh.

Here is my new link:

On the news!

Carlo and I made it on the news tonight. There was a camera wandering around our local mall today asking people if they preferred to watch movies at home or at the theatre. I commented that I couldn't take 2 hours away from him so for now it had to be at home. Hooray for babywearing on the news (and specifically wrapping).

We hit a sleep regression and it's rough. I'm exhausted but I love the new things that he does. He LOVES to stand up now and he found his toes!

3 months old

3 month stats:

Weight: 14lbs 13oz

Clothing Size: 6 months (but still fits 3 months)

Diaper Size: 3

Sleeps 6-8 hour stretches

Firsts:

• first chrismas parties
• first christmas

• first visit with great grandma S (MIL's mom)

Carlo now plays with toys. Anything in his hands gets stared at, shoved in his mouth and fiddled with. He has started really paying attention to the hanging toys on his mat. He grabs them while laying underneath them. He got the toy in the picture below for christmas from my dad's mom. It's so much fun watching him kick around and grab the toys. He loves the frog toy. I also put a toy steering wheel next to him on his mat and he turned his whole body and uses both hands to play with it. It sings the alphabet song, but only 4 letters at a time, each time he hits the steering wheel. I heard the whole song last night while playing with him. So cool to see this baby grow up.

The bitch is back

Yes... the dreaded AF is back. She stayed away for 12 weeks. But really, the PP bleeding wasn't done for 6 weeks so I was only pad free for 6 weeks :/ Looking into getting the diva cup but at the moment, it hurts to use tampons. Well, maybe after using tampons, it won't hurt so much to have sex :/
