If I have every had a doubt in my abilities...its now.. this is the second week for Stuart waking up around 430 to 5...sometimes he isn't even hungry..and others he could wait but I feed him so he'll go back to bed... I played with the idea maybe he is ready for cereal. I have been putting it in his bottle every night since...last weekend...the night I did it he slept till 8am the next morning.. but the following night and after nights...its so inconsistent..and beleive me when I say..I don't want to start feeding him anything besides formula..my theory is if he is sleeping through the night there is no reason to start cereal or anything else for that matter b.c. formula provides your baby with what he needs for the 1st year. doctor thinks he maybe teething...but he isn't uncomfortable you know.. I think he may be sleeping too much in the evening so I'm going to try to keep him up more in the evenings.....so does anyone have any other suggestions?.. .
one accomplishment is: Sondra/Stuart's Room is clean..well for the time being... we cleaned out some of her toys and have agreed to give a few to certain friends that she knows...but she goes back and forth on it..I got to get them out of the house before she really renigs on the deal...She has one toy box and one box for babies & baby stuff...and whatever does not fit in those 2 things...goodbye!...so more stuff will be going...toys bother me... there are things that she loves to play with all the time..and others..she'll play with every so often..but not everyday..but I look at it and think...what do i do?..I'm excited this year b.c. 2 years ago she got a doll house that she loves so much...she played with the thing till the faces were almost worn off....well we decided to donate it to our church nursery so everyone can play with it on the condition that Santa brings her a new doll house... So I'm excited to buy her one and she is going to love it!...thats my only MVP gift I know to get her..there are other little things...but thats the biggie.. also..any suggestions what kind of doll house to get her??...
Also this week.. Sondra has really showed me who is in control...lol.. or reminded me what needs done...she just has this huge big personality inside this little body and she has such big and strong emotions...its quite endearing...I look at her and wonder who she'll be...but she has been so stubborn and we have really had to get on her.. just when you think you have control ....they do something different and flip the game on you...:)...
I was at Kari's last night..and it seems easier and easier to have a bunch of kids....I like that chaos... but I'm happy...they seem to be so comfortable with me now...I was sitting on the couch and the older girls were upstairs and the two youngest were sitting on the couch with me...both on each side... scooted all the way by me... Micheal's head on my shoulder and Flinta's feet sitting on my legs... they are a fun bunch of kids...seriously..never a dull moment...
One very funny thing tho...when I got home from Kari's last night Sondra was already in bed..so when I woke her up this morning and was getting her ready I noticed her nails were painted...I said oh pretty Did Amanda painted your nails? and she says No Daddy did... lol.
and my favorite little tidbit My daughter Told the baby sitter yesterday: My Mommy puts beer in my cereal!...thanks Sondra you are such a sweetheart!
