I've been busy all evening writing an email to this one and that one, that I almost forgot to write in my blog. Oh my, ahhaha. Of course I got nothing done I wanted to. I still haven't uploaded my Christmas pics, I'm slipping.

Today went by quickly, as usual. Let's see... I took Jon for his 6 month pics. Of course he smiled so sweetly. We got some bath tub scenes and some other shots. I was good an only ordered a collage. I think he'll be rolling over soon. He tries so hard. It must have been a freak thing that he did it 2 months ago. He is definitely slower than she was. She sat up by 7 months, so we'll see how he does. But now, he is no where near it. We put these cute spider man pj's on this evening, that he got for xmas. They are 12 months, but you know how they shrink in the dryer, they fit perfect. And I love how they are two pieces so he has room to grow, he's so darn tall.

Talked to the docs and they said maybe switch to sensitive formula, and put two teaspoons of cereal in the bottle to thicken it so he digests it better. I thought that was a bad thing to do. It was ok years ago to do, but you know the "new rules". Just like sleeping on your tummy is taboo now. That's why our kids are reaching their milestones more slower because they don't build up the strength as quickly. But I gave it a try, put the next stage nipple on it and he did good. I still have 4 bottles of Isomil left, so we'll finish that up, then start the new stuff, and see how that goes. I hope it goes well, I'm sick of all the spitting up and gas. She also said don't feed him over 8 oz. She kinda freaked when I said for his last bottle he usually drinks 11 oz. She said he doesn't need to eat more than 8 oz. at one sitting. So we'll try that too and see how that works. It's always a guessing game on what's the right thing to do. And many people have STRONG opinions on what the right thing to do is. You could debate just about anything, from breastfeeding, cosleeping, sleeping on tummy, circumcision, vaccinations, the list can go on and on. I always listen to the options and go with what I feel is right. Just because you read one or two articles doesn't make what you read the right thing. The AMA changes their minds every few years. I try not to be a paranoid parent, there are too many things to be paranoid over. And I've found that with my 2nd I'm much more relaxed. I used to worry too much. You know, new parent syndrome.

We watched Jessica's new movie "Barbie as the Island Princess". It was a great movie, and she actually sat through the whole hour and a half. There is lots of singing so that caught her attention. I even cried at the end, ahahha.

There are many times in life we just take mental snap shots of the kids, by the time you get the camera the moment is gone. It was so cute, we put Jon in his bumbo seat in his play tent, and Jess was sitting next to him playing, and they were hugging, and gave each other kisses, it was adorable. Of course that all ended by the time I went upstairs and got the camera. Jeff says we should have a camera upstairs and downstairs, ahhhaa. You never know when they are going to be cute.

Jeff goes back to work tomorrow, so it's back to the grind. My goal is to get the house cleaned, so hopefully my hips/back cooperate with me.
