18 month WCC, a new Sling, & Free Diapers!

3 Replies


Jon took Kaylee in for her 18 month WCC and shots yesterday afternoon. She will be 19 months next week so this appointment was a little late. Oh, well. She did great as always with the shots. She even called me to tell me all about it. We were hoping that this appointment would be the last for weight checks… well she goes back in a couple months for another weight check! At least we get a month off from taking her in to get weighed. But she is going in next month to get the second does of both the seasonal and H1N1 flu shots. So Jon will be taking her in for more shots. 🙂 Everything else about her is great. We were really hoping that she would be 20 lbs, but no luck. She just burns her food off faster than we can get it in her!

New stats:
Weight: 19 lbs 1 oz (.49%)
Height: 30 3/4 in (18%)
Head: 18 1/4 in (41%)

New things she says and does:
After diaper changes when we stand her up to put her pants on she likes to point at her Jesus collage and say, “Jesus!” Jon says she sounds like she’s cursing. 🙂 But we both think it’s cute.

She follows my R.S. ladies around the house and helps them with the chores. Their favorite is when she plugs the vacuum in for them and moves the kitchen chairs out of their way while they are sweeping.

She will get a pot and lid out and make food for us. The other day she dumped pretzels in a pot stirred them and said, “yummy!” She then feed me her delicious food.

She says, “pease help me.” We love this. She started saying it by herself one day and got such a good response from us she hasn’t stopped since and only occasionally has to be reminded to be polite.

This cutie pie is doing something funny and new everyday. Way to much for one post so these are just the new favorites. She is such a joy to us!

FUN STUFF!

I got my new Sling in the mail on Tuesday! It is so BEAUTIFUL and fits perfect! I am so looking forward to wearing Regan around in it. Hopefully that day is still a few weeks off. 🙂 Look how pretty it is. THANKS ORA! Oh, and my name is on both slings in fabric pen. I’m not losing my spare arms again!

So this is for all you Mommies out there with kids in diapers. Thursday while Kaylee was at the docs office the UPS man came to our house. Why is this blog worthy you may wonder… well he brought me 80 FREE diapers!!! Yup FREE. Would you like some free diapers??? Silly question I know. 🙂 Here is how I got free diapers. As I’ve typed so much already I’ll just give you the link. This is one of my favorite sites. Go here http://www.engineeradebtfreelife.com/2009/08/how-to-get-free-diapers-plus-10-free-we.html for instructions if you are interested in some free diapers. It took a week for them to call me back then less than a week for the diapers to come. Plus after I do a short phone interview after using the diapers they will send me a $10 check!!! Very much worth it for a small amount of effort on my part. Hope everyone had just as fabulous a week as we did! Happy weekend everyone. Let it be hospital and new baby free. 🙂

Josh and Yaya

We LOVE when Josh comes to visit. Kaylee was much warmer to him this visit. Here are a couple of cute pictures of these two hanging out Saturday morning. The mini Stella still works like magic to get Kaylee to cuddle! Kaylee even gave him a willing goodbye squish and kiss as well as blowing him kisses. Come visit again soon Josh.

Playing Starfall and saying, “cheese!” for the camera.

Kaylee’s Yaya (my Mom) got to our house a few hours before Josh on Friday night. She has been cleaning, cooking and playing with Kaylee nonstop since she got here. I’ve noticed that Jon, Kaylee, and I are more relaxed having her here. As amazing as my R.S. is there is just something comforting about having your Mom around when you are feeling icky and stuck on the couch. She is still trying to decide how long she is going to be able to stay. We may get to keep her for quite a while if she can arrange things with work! The bed rest is helping as well as having doubled the med dose. We are hoping to make it 3 more weeks, but would love to make it 4 more. We will just have to see. Jon and I are hoping to get a good long break before we have to go back to L&D for shots. He thinks we will end up there at least once more. We went in 3 times for shots with Kaylee’s pregnancy, and have so far been 3 times with Regan for the Turbutaline shots. We’ve been in 5 times now to keep him in and now all nurses know us. 🙂 So Regan is officially a more difficult pregnancy than Kaylee. He started off MUCH easier, but clearly wants to out do his big sis. Great news though, today we are 33 weeks and every day I can keep him in is an awesome day at our house because every day counts for a bigger healthier baby! Happy week everyone!
