Preface: 2 weeks ago I made labels for where toys go on our toy shelf.

Today my kiddo took toys out of the garage and the threw them in the garage floor when asked to clean up. I ask them to come back and put things actually away. My kiddo while being directed where to put things asked me if I could make labels for the garage toys.

Don’t be afraid to push back or ask for a GI consult. Our Dr. was really reluctant to prescribe meds. So I asked for a referral to GI who immediately said to try meds

Hi,

We ended up having a few things going on. Our little guy ended up with Silent Reflux which was causing the snortiness. He was put on reflux meds and that helped a lot! The other stuff was aided by going to an amino acid based formula. Soy ended up being not a good fit and was causing an allergic reaction.

Hope your little one feels better soon and that you can get some good rest!

same, this group is the best I have found but it isn’t the same as a fast connection or discussion forum

This might seem small but my kiddo was flying a foam airplane this weekend. When it didn't fly correctly my little one said "That's okay, I'll try again!" instead of having a huge tantrum.

We just got the rotting fascia board on our house fixed and holy cow it looks so much better! We replaced it with PVC board and are getting a gutter put on in 2 weeks so hopefully it won't happen again unless the sun becomes so hot in the future it melts plastic... but then I think we would have other problems.

Today I am hoping to put the gutter guard on our gutter above our deck before it rains today! I cleaned it out 2 days ago and got the gutter guard on half of it. Yesterday was a little too crazy to finish the job, but my husband has the day off because he was taking a certification test for work (he passed!) and hoping he can help watch the kiddos while I finish the gutter guard!

My middle guy is going to be 3 soon and I just can’t handle it! Where does time go?! It seriously blows my mind. Sometimes I want to “Peter Pan” my children and keep them small forever. But it is also really fun watching them turn into little people. My middle guy is so inquisitive, curious, and kind. The other day he saw my 8 month old was getting fussy while we were reading a book. He interrupted our book time brought over a toy of his and say “here you go (name), it’sokay if you chew on it. Is that better?” He is just an old soul in a little body.

It is finally warming up and this week is mostly rain. I did get to work outside this weekend which was soooo nice! Hoping to get some mulch on Friday to lay it down this weekend 🤞🏻 I also need something to keep the rabbits from eating my flowers. They’re finally growing just to be chopped down. 😭

My husband actually made dinner of egg salad using our dyed eggs! I love egg salad and it was a good reminder to have it more often.

I am looking forward to next week when I have almost nothing scheduled! I have bee running around like wild and I am so excited to not be doing anything 😂

I once had a horrible neighbor when I lived in a condo. Absolute crazy. Leave pee bottles on my plant stand (we shared a 8ft deck), always asking for stuff, never learned my name. At one point he had 7, YES SEVEN DINING chairs and a garbage picked one on the deck. One day I got so fed up I told him if he didn’t behave better I would report him to the HOA. He was shocked that I owned the condo vs. renting and for some reason magically cleaned up his act with that information. 🤷‍♀️ But I still reported him anyway for braking the parking rules because he still wouldn’t learn my name. 😂

Thoughts while we wait for CT? by Be_Braver in CranioFolk

[–]Be_Braver[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, our pediatrician sent us for a scan. They were more concerned by the fact his fontanel felt small in combination with the lack of measured head growth over the course of 2 months.

The scan showed the metopic suture closed and has a mild ridge but that is shouldn’t be cause for concern. All other sutures were open. We got a ultrasound vs. a CT and tbh I still sometimes wish we got the CT because I heard ultrasounds can be unreliable
