leatherpants no no NO. I can’t even think about snow. I’m not ready. Fall can last for 6 months please. And then turn promptly into spring. no! We need 2-3 weeks of nice snow over Christmas. Then spring.

That looks so good! I can’t wait for the weather to be cool enough for soup and chili. Soup when it’s 80 degrees out just doesn’t sound good. My only problem is that I’m probably the only one that would eat it. DH doesn’t like broccoli and DD is such a picky eater. I could Jamie this for me and let DH fend for them though, right? 😉 This recipe looks amazing! Mel’s Kitchen was mentioned in the blog post. I make a recipe called “cowboy dinner” from that site and it’s so good! Kind of like Mexican Sheppard pie. Is that with the tater tots and ground beef? I believe I’ve had that too. Tasty and easy!

DS2 had his six month checkup today and he's 20lbs 7oz. Holy chunky monkey. The pedi isn't concerned that he's not really rolling over (he's only rolled belly to back 4 times ever, and back to belly twice while pulling on something). She fairly sure his weight has something to do with it, ha! He's sitting up unassisted really well, so she's just not worried about the rolling. We're attempting to ditch the SwaddleMe tonight...which may not be the smartest idea for the day he got 6m shots, but last night was awful and we think he might just be over the swaddle. Or it's something else totally unrelated, who knows with baby sleep, amirite? mintyblueair I see you're rocking the chunky baby too! These rolls.

Oh I definitely need some real winter. I missed out on hockey and snowboarding last year due to pregnancy so I'm looking forward to that. And I'll take more than 3 weeks of it. It's the in between cold and soggy and dreary that I can't take.

I was getting dressed this morning and I put B in his crib with some toys to play. L went in, dumped a bucket of toys in there and played and then wandered into his own room. So I go to get B and he’s literally surrounded by legos and a bunch of other tiny choking hazards. Thankfully he had found a piece of toy bacon to chew on that’s quite large and I don’t think any of the little pieces went in his mouth.
I’m so angry because this is the latest in testing a bunch of rules. I tell him 800x a day to keep small toys away from B. I told him I’m packing up all of the legos until he can show me he can follow rules. But I’m still so angry.

katietopaz DS2 has only rolled back to front a couple of times. I just don't think he wants to be on his stomach so why would he chose to roll that way? He is rolling front to back and sitting unassisted though as well. Our doctor wasn't concerned at all as long as he was rolling to his side. He was only 15.6 lbs at his 6 month check in so u don't even think it has to do with size but I definitely wouldn't worry.

Yesterday after being rudelu woken by the smoke detector I went out and bought enough batteries to change all of them. DH changed the one in DS1s because we needed to switch it one with the one in the garage back. We figured we could wait until the weekend d to change the rest. Guess what happened at 3:45 thus morning? The detector in our room where DS2 currently sleeps started beeping. The beeping didn't wake him but climbing up to get him from the ceiling did. Needless to say all of them were charged this morning.

nevertoomanyshoes Aren't these chunky babies the best?? Was your M15er roly-poly too? Our home is pretty move-in ready. We have a couple small things to do like put in an over-the-range microwave and put in some garage storage. How goes your househunt?

We are still house hunting but now looking at potential renovation houses ugh. My M15er was always small. Shot up the percentile chart a bit since but is not much heavier than the baby 😳

My M15er has always been a stringbean too, and I think he and the baby will be about the same size within the year. They're only just over 10 lbs apart now. 😳

I can barely hold my eyes open, but we have a fun morning planned. Picking up a couple friends and going to a nearby town to their biannual used book sale and to a waffle restaurant for breakfast. I'm looking forward to coming raspberry apple juice!

So Baby Mermaid is now big and mobile enough that she shifted around from sitting position to feeding position in my arms and started chewing on my boob. Guess it’s snack time.

Baby Mermaid gettin what she wants! L has started to do that too. And if I’m holding him on my hip, he’ll just flop his body over toward my boob and try to nurse through my shirt. There have been a few close calls when I’m not prepared for the flop.

I’m laughing at these flopping babies. They know what they want
B likes to roll to his belly while he’s nursing. This is doing wonderful things for my boobs, let me tell you. What it is doing is moving a boob job up on the list of priorities.

I’m baking pork chops and stuffing today with roasted squash and collard greens! First though, I decided to make apple pie! I’m not sure who’s going to eat because everyone is sick, but this sounds yummy to me!

We had my niece’s 1st birthday party today. It was pumpkin themed and so cute! Food was all different kinds of chili, chili dogs, mac & cheese, loaded baked potatoes. And cake of course. I am now stuffed and shouldn’t need to eat until Tuesday. Except I’m sure I’ll have leftovers for dinner.
