So..I have succumbed to it and started feeding Stuart rice cereal. With Sondra she was probably 10 to eleven months...Stuart....6months... he is doing everything faster than Sondra... I don't know how much its helped..the first night he slept in longer...but like last night..he got up at 5 something..and bless Jake's heart...he got up and fed him!...
and sadly..instead of using my Christmas money for new shirts...I have to get a GPS...My GPS has been very unreliable..and when I was on my way to my friends in Rushmore...few minutes away from Delphos...it just shut off and wouldn't stay on... :(... the maps are outdated to begin with...I've loved my TomTom..and Randy's sexy voice that tells me he wants to relieve his sexual frustrations...and when you get to the place you were going he says he is going to take me in and kiss me from top to bottom..and all..I'm going to miss that sexy voice...hopefully Garmin's your able to download free voices like TomToms... which the more I think about it..I'll only be able to put it to sexy voice when Sondra isn't in the car.. I've had to have Erica's generic voice for the past year or so.. man.. the downers of being a parent lol....anyways...its something I use a lot and had to choose between shirts and a GPS..do you blame me...
I am getting very close to putting Stuart in a convertible car seat..the ones that are a step up from Infant car seats but still rear facing..I want to double check he is over 20 pounds at his doc's visit and then that is where his Christmas money will be going...We already have 2 car seats but Sondra is using her nice one still. Its not hooked in but its like a booster car seat but much more comfy then just a booster..and I don't think that is one that can go backwards...then we have a convertible one that we would keep in Jake's car just in case Stuart would go with him somewhere... so that leaves us with my car w/out a everyday chair for him..so I'm pretty sure we will use his Christmas money on that...well I'm sure..I just want to hear what Jake thinks if he has a better idea ..but I'm sure he will agree..or really not care...my thinking is..buy a decent convertible chair and it will stay with him until he is out of car seats... plus..if he is over 20 pounds you can bet your bottom he is switching..my back hurts so much lugging his butt and that seat around... I bet its at least 30 pounds with him in it..and then Add the diaper bag..my purse..and whatever Sondra may be having me carry...ya.. it stinks..
this weekend was so nice :)
Thursday night we went to Andrea & Joel's and played...she made a wonderful Steak dinner with all the fixings :)
Friday Morning I woke up and took the kids to Lace's parents house...her Daddy made us all waffles like old times..which were excellent...so good...then us girls when and had our eyebrows and lips waxed thanks to Lacey...even Sondra had her eyebrows "done"...so funny...
then the whole family went to Walmart on New Year's eve for groceries...yes we are crazy..I thought Jake was going to rip open a case of beer and start drinking..he was going crazy and getting moody. That Night we went to my Grandpa's and the kid's went swimming while we played with kids and people played games and ate homemade pizza and snacks...I think for the first time Stuart got a good look at Jude..me and Mel were sitting by each other and you would catch Stuart trying to touch Jude's head...so funny... they are going to both be hell on hells in a few months...and Sondra will be their Ringleader I'm afraid....the phrase "where are the boys" will be on repeat for the rest of our lives...
Saturday morning I woke up and made bacon and eggs...and had a little girl tell me they don't taste as good as John's...my foster brother her uncle John...he is a teenager in high school...ya.. thanks Sondra... lol..I can't even remember what we did Saturday..oh we went to my parents..watched football...and did nothing... and Sunday...church of course and Sunday school... was at my parents watching football.. Sunday naps..and of course made dinner...this week on the menu: Hamburgers w/all the toppings and different cheeses with French Fries and Mac and cheese...so good and Melissa had the dessert... Oreo truffles and pumpkin and zucchini bread... it turned into a IDK what we are going to have to a feast! I love Sunday dinners :)..I don't know why I get excited for food..Jake says he really doesn't get or anticipate a meal .....I'm not one of those ones that have that motto: Eat to Live not Live to eat..lol.. and that is why I'm over weight. I love to cook and see the end result..I love to put together stuff and try new things out...
also..Stuart..he is a few inches from crawling..it is making me absolutely sick watching him..he gets on his knees and rocks..and he will throw himself forward...why?..why do babies have to grow so fast???... it makes me sick..he is doing this a whole lot faster than Sondra...she was rocking like that at 9months..but she didn't crawl very long..she went right into walking it seemed like... anyways..I just watch him and for one moment in my brain I get that thought...no what If knock him down so he don't even attempt to crawl..lol.. there goes my mother of the year award for 2011..so close so close... lol ... I love that little man..he is so darn adorable and cuddly and lovable..such a happy spirit...I don't know how I was blessed with such great babies:)...you can't blame me for wanting more kids..
Welp..I gotta get going...I got some work to do... but I just felt like I wanted to update!... Later all
