Quoting Kismet:" Gina and I are doing good. Everyday is an adventure. So what is everyone getting their LO's for their first Christmas?"

I got Easton these so far


^which came with other teething toys


its harder to shop for him, my daughter was a breeze!

Quoting Thorian's Mommy:" Everyone in my family is sick. LO has had runny poops for two weeks but he hasnt had a poop in over three ... [snip!] ... him tylenol. He finally fell asleep. hopefully it gets him to relax enough to either poop or get rid of whatever he has.  "

thats how E was last week and then Sunday, he exploded and it was by far the nastiest thing I have seen! lol
We gave him gripe water and a warm rice pack for his belly and he would finally sleep.

Gina has so many gifts. Being that she is the first great grand and first grandchild on both sides. It's crazy lol. She already has one gift which are the earrings my mom picked for her piercings. I got her mostly learning toys and stuff that'll encourage her to crawl more

Thats how it was with my daughter, we never had any room for half her stuff . Right before E came we cleaned out all her toys that she didnt play with and gave to the fire station. I'm sure her stockpile will be replenished again lol

Its sooo much more exciting opening /or watching kids open their presents than your own hahaha

I tried gripe water but it doesnt seem to help. i forgot about a rice pack, i need to get one. i feel guilty for giving him the tylenol but i hate seeing him like that.  

Quoting Kismet:" Gina and I are doing good. Everyday is an adventure. So what is everyone getting their LO's for their first Christmas?"

He is getting a walker, Leap Frog Scout toy, Johnny Jumper, Stationary jumper, two activity tables and tons of clothes.

Sometimes there isn't much you can do. If its the only thing that works then you gotta do it. I hope he feels better soon!

Idk if I am weird but we aren't getting the baby anything. I buy her anything we need for her at any point. She just got a jumper, 2 new amber necklaces, a tummy tub, a bunch of new cloth diapers, a sophie teether in the last couple of weeks. I feel like Christmas is for bigger kids (or at least after the newborn stage). She won't have a clue what is happening and it seems super pointless for me. But I also have a big one, so everything under the tree is for her. AND her birthday is a week after Christmas. So she costs twice as much this time of year.

So my step-mother had her first surgery yesterday to remove the cancer. It didn't spread and they got it all!! She goes in next Thursday for them to put the catheter in for her radiation treatments that will continue through Christmas.
I'm over the moon that she and my aunt are doing so good!

Yay, a Christmas miracle

The huge dark cloud we had hanging around here, is gone   and she was almost in tears when she found out that it hadn't spread. She sat up the night before almost convincing herself it had. Now that she knows its all good, her mood and attitude toward the rest of the treatment has definitely gotten lighter!!

Now you guys can have a merry merry Christmas
