Sarah: Hey lady!!! Too bad for the sickies, give me a call on my cell if you need ANYTHING, even just to vent. And if he's not contagious I want to come visit you damn it! I have AC so I could even take you out if you want. Give me a call! Blessings, Sarah
Shawna: Oh, I added a link to the photo albums up above.
Shawna: Ok, the pics are in. God I love my boy.
Sarah: Wow! What a fricken cutie he is! Now that I have a car I'll have to drive down there to visit. We'll just have to wait for the sickies to go :(. But yay for sex, that makes everything so much less stressfull.
Sarah: You know...Collin never did like those teething rings either. He was a big fan of frozen washcloths though. I just froze a couple of his baby ones and he loved it. I hope I get to see you soon!!!
Sarah: You are all in my prayers Shawna. Blessings to all of you.
Sarah: You should be proud of yourself! That shit isn't easy to deal with when you have a 2 month old. I totally understand about your hubby, they mean well, but that shit is annoying!
Shawna: Turns out the feared hernia is just Seans umbilical cord, as I originally thought, apperantly it's quite common for them not to completely dry up and fall off. It was treated with silver nitrate and should be all healed within the month . Sarah I'm thinking deffinetly this week, but this weekend is out because I'm torturing Cici as punishment, I'll explain later. Luv ya
Sarah: You poor thing! How frustrating that must be. Damn it I wish I could come visit you. Stupid car... I still think you should come see me though, and bring the poopy diapers with ya, he he.
Shawna: Well, I called the Dr. and spoke to a nurse this time, Seans going to the Dr's at 1:30 today, apperantly they dont like the sound of it staining his clothes. Finally some real help!
Meagan: Congrats on your little one! He's adorable! I'm expecting a baby boy in August. Our daughter is 2. Best of luck!
Sarah: Ack! Cholic sucks ass! I'm sorry sweetie. You need to come over and get away for a while. You poor thing! *lots of hugs*
Shawna: Arghhh, I had a long entry and went to post it and it dissappeared, when I went to delete the blank entry, it wont let me. Anyway, Sean has cholic, loves baths and diapy changes, wont let me out of his sight for more than 30 minutes, and I love him but am ready to drop from exhaustion. Sarah it's gonna be a while longer as right now all I want is peace and rest.
Shawna: Sorry about that last entry, I was really ticked off at the time, I took out the parts thats werent family appropriate.
Michelle Baldwin: Hi Shawna.I just wanted to let you know that I think I'm going to delete my journal here. I am on myspace now and never post here anymore,so. I just wanted to let you know since I'm on your friends list here. If you ever want to,you can visit me here: www.myspace.com/mystikmoon Take care.:)BB,Michelle
Sarah: What georgous pictures! Sean is so cute, and man is Cici a looker, lol you're gonna have your hand s full with that one. Big bummer on the yeasties, but at least it's clearing up. Still waiting for a nursing party, he he.
Shawna: Just wanted to let you know there are more pics of Sean in the my family album
Heather: Just blog hopping. What a beautiful son you have! Congradulations!!
netanis: it is hard never feeling like you get a real good break but hang in there! and try to remember that its ok to let him cry its healthy for him to cry it out once in a wile. and dont feel gulty about letting him. call me if you need to vent i'm never busy.
Sarah: Stay tough! The first month is always the hardest. Collin had terrible collic his first month and I thought I was gonna jump off a bridge. But it will pass! Love you and call me if you need to vent or want to hang. Men arent' much help, but mommies know how it is.
Shawna: Oh in case you were wondering, Mikey convinced me to change the spelling of Sean's name as Sean is the true Irish spelling, and after thinking about it, it helps me as I dont write Shawna whenever a form asks for baby's name.
Shawna: Tough guys my ass! Mike still wont change a diaper and Seans almost 3 weeks old. I have lots of new pics but havent loaded them yet as I havent had a lot of free time but hopefully within the week.
Sarah: I haven't laughed this hard in a while! "Shoot the Shit", lmao! I'll never forget the first time Collin pooped on Mike, it was hysterical. I thought they were supposed to be tough guys?!
Sarah: I hope this finds you all well. I can't wait to meet little Shawn. Just give me a call when you're feeling like a change of scenery and we can have a nursing party. Wish I could go and visit, but my car's totalled. TTYL.
Nathalie: Dropping in to invite you to join the "Valentines Exchange"!!
Shawna: thank you for letting me get my sleep, it's not easy to get around here even with Shawn being a great sleeper, but yes I would love for you to come over and meet him, I was gonna call you today, but we had a ruff night as Shawn had a tummy ache all night. Stop by whenever, the house is in chaos right now, but you can relate. love ya
Sarah: What a cutie! I can't wait to meet him. I was going to come over the other day but figured you needed your new mommy sleep. ;-) I'm still pissed off at myself for not putting the phone in my room. I can't beleive I missed it! Lots of love!
Michelle: Aww:) Congratulations to you and Mikey:) I think it's sweet that one of your dogs is protective of him too. Can't wait to see him! Take care and I hope your nipples heal soon. lol. I bet they are sore! ttyl.BB,Michelle
Sarah: What a wonderfull story! I think it fits pregnancy very well. I'm so happy ppl have stopped pressuring you so much. I'm very excited to be there for you! I've already gone back through my Bradley books to see what I can do to help.
Michelle Baldwin: Hourly checks would be highly annoying. lol. Geez. At least she stopped them and I wish you peace.Michelle
Shawna: thank you both, I think Miked talked to his mom about backing off of me as she stopped the hourly checks, My mom is leaving late sat night or early sun morning, and my brother isnt staying long, so I believe I'm gonna get a break , and at the bottom of that entry I meant to say DONT wish me luck, just wish me peace.
Michelle Baldwin: Hello Shawna.Well,this sort of thing happens all the time. He will come when he comes. It's Nature. I am sure you're more than ready for him to come though of course.:) He will be here soon though. Tell everyone to leave you alone. BB,Michelle
Sarah: Darn it I just tried to call you and you didn't answer...I'm all anxious!!!
Sarah: If there's anything I've learned from reading a rediculous amount of birth stories, it's that the mother never has the baby until she's completely comfortable. So, tell everyone to shove it, relax and ride the waves... Best of luck to you Shawna!
Shawna: I would like to put a gag in the mouths of everyone around me.
Ashley: Hi! Just out blog hopping. Stop by mine anytime. best of luck on labor and delivery.
Shawna: Well I put the new pics in the my pictures album, when Mikey see's these pics all he can say is, "You got some veins baby" it's amazing how prominent your belly veins get durring pregnancy
Shawna: Sarah, thank you, that did the trick, my ankles are back to normal, and I dont have the pain from them being swollen, thanks again.
Sarah: Ya, my feet were pretty swollen during the end. I just stopped eating salty food and anything caffinated. Drinking lots of water helped too. But mostly limiting salt worked the best. Keep those feet up!
Michelle: Np:) And I'll still call you like I said I would. I have a weird schedule. Visit me at my journal sometime if you want.:) I never hear from you woman! Take care. Hope u feel better. ~BB~
Shawna: thenk you for the kind words Michelle, I'm still waiting on that phone call silly girl.
Shawna: Sarah, did your feet and ankles turn into balloons in your last month, I've gone beyond cankles, my ankles are bigger than my calfs, and when I push on them, they stay dented.
Shawna: lol, now you see why I've been complaining so much about them, not only are they huge, they weigh a ton, and my milk hasnt even come in yet. thank you for the offer to vent with you, but actually just venting on paper, or keyboard, really helps.
Sarah: Gadzooks Shawna, your bazoombas are huge!! Ha ha. Lookin good hot mama! Remember it'll be over before you know it, and then you'll miss it. Just tell Mikey to shove it with the housework and enjoy as much of the pregnancy as you can. And yes, the Boppy is a Goddess send! Love you chicky! Call me if you get too stressed and need to vent.
Shawna: After my last visit to Margie, things are going well, Shawn is now just over 5 lbs, which is what I gained in the last 2 weeks, and Margie is still predicting an on time delivery, I havent been at this as long as she has, but we'll see who's right. Anybody want to start placing bets?
Shawna: Great news, this is simply false labor or more appropriately growing pains, Margie was amazed at the size difference in my belly from when she saw me after the seizure and today, my cervix is like a brick wall she said with no signs of even wanting to open up, so, I get to have sex again, YIPPEEE. Margie was a little concerned that I only gained 1 lb this last month, but hey, theres no more room in there!
Sarah: Just give me a time and a place chicky, I have all the supplies you'd ever need. Cici could join too if you want. It might help her feel like she's helping you...you know? Anyhoo, give me a call or e-mail me and we'll get together.
Shawna: I think the spell sounds good, as I've been thinking, I hate seeing the fear in Cici's eyes when she has to watch & help her mommy go through a siezure and I dont want that anymore, nor do I want to put Shawn Michael through that, let me know and maybe we could do it together, make it stronger, I dont want my daughter to suffer through it anymore, or ever make my son suffer through it, thank you so much for offering Sarah, Blessed Be
Shawna: I'm not sure about the healing spell, my epilepsy has made me who I am, but at the same time, I know what its like to suffer from it, I can still relate to people because of it without suffering anymore, I'm leaning towards it, the spell, I'm just not certain, if any of this makes sense .
Shawna: Happy turkey day everyone!
Michelle Baldwin: I thought you mentioned that,Shawna. Sorry:) But at least you very rarely have them. Take care and I hope you and your family have a fantastic Thanksgiving:)~BB~Michelle

Solid foods.

  • Mood:
After watching the curiousity on my boys face for a few days while he was watching me eat, I decided to start Sean on solids. So Sunday night for dinner he had a bottle of breast milk, rice cereal & a little bit of bananas, he loves it! He gobbles up a 5 oz bottle in less than 10 minutes. So now at 8:30 every night I give him a dinner bottle and by 9:30, he's out and doesnt wake until 2:30 am for his normally midnight feeding, allowing me some extra sleep time. HOORAY!!!!! What else have we got going on now, Oh he has 2 favorite songs, Skidamarinky dinky dink, and John Jacob Jingle Hiemer Schmidt. He cracks up laughing when I start sing them and if he's fussy, I can sing them and he will smile, although he starts crying when I stop. I finally got a coouple of nursing tank tops, Why did I wait so long? We also purchased him a short guys walker and he has a blast, he's not exactly chasing the dogs around the house yet but he can make it move how he wants to some extent. Sean is now ready for 6-9 mo clothing, at our last weigh in over a week ago he has hit 16 lbs, which is 1/2 a lb less than doubling his birth weight, but he's not fat, he hides his weight in his length, however he does have plenty of chub for me to chew on, lol. He will be going in for his 4 1/2 month shots in a couple weeks, I'm curious to see how these go. I love just spending time with my boy but I am getting burnt out on being home all the time, jumping through every hoop Mikes mom holds out for me, I need a getaway. The only drawback with Sean having solids is theres a nice big package waiting for me in Seans diapy when I wake up, lol. Other than that everythings going pretty smooth, my sexual appetite has resumed YIPEEEE YAHOOO, I want it and enjoy it again, its so nice to be a sexual being again, I thought I was going to be a frigid witch forever! I'm sorry I havent posted any new pics in quite some time, trust me I've been snapping them off like crazy, I just never find the time to DL them. Oh oh oh, Sean has my attitude problems with his daddy's temper, as parents, Mike and I are screwed, lol. If I take the breast away from him, even when he's just playing, he screams, he insists on going to sleep at the breast, so when he wont take his binky I walk away, let him scream for a couple more minutes and then return to cuddle, this routine generally take about 30 minutes, till he gets the hint that I'm not giving in and he drifts off while mumbling and grumbling, Mike and I call it "talking shit", he's very good at it. Anyway, I am exhausted and think I'm going to go lay with my boy, until next time, I love you all and Blessed Be.
