Alexis is a month and about a week now. I can tell she's getting bigger cuz she really doesnt fit into the newborn clothes anymore. She loves to eat all the time. And she has just started smiling more. This morning...she was in a very good mood cuz thats all she was doing is smiling but when i got the camera out...of course she stopped smiling. But ill catch her one of these times. With the breastfeeding....i kinda gave up on that. Im not really getting anything anymore which is sucks but good at the same time. My wic appointment is tomorrow and i might just get a pump and see if i can get my milk flowing again. If it doesnt work...im just going to giving it back next appointment. So we'll see on that. She seems to like being held too but its just so hard when my back has been hurting alot more lately. But i try my best on what i can do. Oh, another thing on her feeding.... last week or the week before that...she would throw up alot and it would worry me. But we changed her to this other formula...i think its more sensitive to the stomach and it seems to work cuz she hasnt since...well after as i know anyway. Im just hoping wic has that formula. But another then that...she been a good baby. She's been sleeping pretty good during the night. Most nights i only wake up like two times to feed her. So thats nice.
Well with Summer...she's been a different story. She's good with her sister. She gives her kisses and when Alexis is in her chair and her binky falls out she tries to put it back in her mouth. She kinda has been more of a helper with somethings. But on the other side...she acts up more. She is really testing us on everything. I have been so much better on handling it all unless i hadnt had any sleep the night before then im at the point i want to shoot myself. But she's getting so big as well. She's kinda saying more words and trying to show us more on what she wants. We just started taking her to the park thats just down the street from us...and its gated in which is great. But today wasnt a good day for her at the park. I dont know what it was but she just kept getting hurt. And then this stupid boy hit Summer with the swing and he knew what he was doing. I was ready to hurt him. And it was the challenge of holding Alexis and comforting Summer...luckily my friend was there with her little one and she held the baby for me so i could comfort Summer. Oh it was just a mess! Now that im thinking about it....i still want to hurt him for doing that. I know kids are just being kids...but why would he do that...knowing she was there. I want to know what went threw his head. Grrrr....! Oh well. But anyways. She has two favorite stuffed animals...well its actually Minnie Mouse and Jimmy cricket. She plays with them all the time. Most of the time she takes one with her if we go somewhere. Its cute. She still loves to get in your face and talk your ear off. We still havent got her in her big girl bed. We havent really tried since the baby came. I know we probably really need to but its so time consuming! Just like potty training. We still havent done that either. I realize why Summer kept leaking threw her diaper....well kinda i guess....We need to get her size 4 now. The threes are just to small even tho the weight on the box says i think 28lbs. Who knows. She still doesnt listen when we tell her no or do get into that etc. Still working on that. Still going crazy haha! But other then that...she doing great.
Sorry i had to stop this last night....so its the next day (friday). We went to my WIC appointment. Summer is 26lbs and 34 1/2 inches long! And Alexis is 9 1/2 lbs. I really thought boht girls would of had more weight. But its ok. But Summer seem to have fun at the app. Good thing there wasnt anyone really. Cuz she was running all around...well Bryon was chasing her too. It was even more better cuz Summer got to go on the big girl scale when she was getting weighted and did the big girl height thing. And she did so good! I was surprised. She is getting so big...i somethings cant believe it when i actually think about it. I will almost have a 2 year old. Soon she'll be 3 then 4 then 5 and before we know it she'll be 18 and about to go to college and all that. Oh boy, how time flights. And theres little Alexis. Im just wondering how she'll be when she alittle older. Oh Last night, Alexis let me sleep for i think 6 hours. It was nice. I did end up waking up a few times but she was still sleeping. Still kinda working on the breatfeeding. Im pretty much up to nothing now...so it kinda sucks. But i still give her whenever i can get out. I really need to start thinking about Summer's birthday party. I have a list of people i want to bring and what cake im getting...I just need to figure out food, place, and decorations and present! I just hope we can get the money for it. Im sure we'll think of something.
This month has gone so fast. Its almost thanksgiving. And soon it will be christmas. Hey at least i dont have to work black friday this year! Very happy about that. And half of the christmas season. But im just worried about after christmas and the hours that they;ll be giving us. I know its going to drop down to probably nothing. Thats why im still trying to get another job. I applied at Barona again but i know they will probably not call me back. Theres just so much stress with alot of things...its like controlling me and my moods. With that and money...it just a big long story. And i just dont know what to do or how to handle it. Im trying to not let me girls see it or even feel the best i can. Bryon says it should be better in the next few weeks but honestly...its hard to believe...which everything we go threw and have gone threw. Id like to say i cant wait until tax return comes but i have a feeling its just all going to be a waste like we do every year. I dont know. Hoping some kinda miracle will come soon. But enough of that...cuz im just get even more depressed.
Well im going to go lay down before Alexis wakes up...so hoping i wont wait this long to write on here again. But ill do my best! See ya!
Oh.... Halloween.....Its was great. Alexis was mostly asleep the whole time and Summer was having fun! She pretty much knew what to do and sometimes said trick or treat and thank you. It was cute. That was a fun night!
