Sunday was awful! Our 1 yr old was so grumpy b/c we tried to keep naps at the "normal" time on the clock but her body was telling her different. Then bedtime she was ready at 6pm (old 7pm) and screamed at bathtime b/c she was exhausted. She's doing much better now.
DD#1 has been so confused when we leave the house after 5pm and it's dark already...she thinks it's bedtime. Time change is for the birds! Oh and I was bothered that our pastor assumed everyone got to sleep in on Sunday. Yeah, I had so much extra time that I made pumpkin muffins before church and we even go to the early service.View Thread





Then with DD#2 I took her to Color Me Mine and made him an 8inch plate. It's painted to look like a basketball with DD#2's footprints in the center. Around the outside I wrote "Daddy's Littlest Fan" "Katelyn 2012". I did this same idea with DD#1 for her first Father's Day, except her plate looks like a baseball and it says "Daddy's #1 Fan."
Lastly, from me I got him a new golf shirt.View Thread

What will Kaitlan's middle name be? Our DD's is Grace.View Thread

Just a warning, your son may not get that the baby you are holding is the same one that was in your belly. We referred to DD#2 as Katelyn all the time but when DD#1 came to visit she didn't understand that it was the same Katelyn as in mommy's belly. She just kept asking "Who is that?" Also, be prepared for lots of questions about the hospital room, any IVs that may still be in your arms and what you are doing if you BF. 3 yr olds ask LOTS of questions!
I can't wait to hear how it goes for you!View Thread

Question: Did any of your babies have issues sleeping when they were teething? DD#2 has been getting up the last few mornings around 3-4am and will only sleep if held. If she seems asleep and I put her in her crib, she wakes up screaming. DD#1 didn't do this and I'm at a loss as to what to do. Last night I rocked her for almost an hour and finally just brought her back to bed with me. I don't want to start this habit but we both need sleep!View Thread
