What did I say, one per week? Ok...here it is :). Sitting inside on this super hot day. Even with no central air it is better inside than outside today. Took the kids for a super short drive around town so that Molly would nap, worked! She was out in about 5 minutes. So she's been asleep for about an hour and forty five...pretty good these days. Wish Jack would nap that well but the little man is very busy right now. I think he picked the hottest week of the year to learn to crawl and maybe even get a tooth or two. His crawling is getting better, getting up on all fours, rocking. And lots of spinning on his belly. He spins one way, then the other...then back again and manages to get all of the rug. The worst part is because it is so sticky out he is getting all the little rug fibers stuck to him. Ick. And I'm looking around at all of the things that need to be put away before he is all over the place....makes me tired.
Went to the doctor this morning and he isn't sure if I have a hernia or not. He read his operation report and said it should have stayed, even with pregnancy, and by feeling it there wasn't an obvious bulge. So I have to go get a Cat Scan Thursday afternoon. Fun fun fun. I don't think they are as bad as the MRI's though.
Well Jack says he is done paying on the ground....will update again. I promise :).
Welcome to my blog! I live in CT with my wonderful husband and children. We got married in August 2005. Our first child, Molly, was born on Halloween 2006. Jack was born on Inauguration Day, January 20, 2009. I was fortunate to take 15 months off when Molly was born but was back in the professional working world for the past 4+ years. Now I am back at home, and figuring it out.

Almost 7 months....not possible...
I feel like a slacker, and a bad mommy. My blog was my baby book for Molly. I know I didn't update it nearly as frequently as some, but it still gave a pretty good record of what was going on and where and when she reached milestones. Poor Jack....the second child syndrome. So as of today, I am making a promise to myself, Jack and Molly that I will blog. At least once a week. If I can update my Mafia Wars daily I can do my blog too, right?
So where are we.....well the little man is almost 7 months. Next week...time goes by so fast. And the reason I came here is because I wanted to see when Molly crawled, pulled up and all that good stuff. Jack is getting closer to crawling every day and it seems like he on a similar track as she was. He desperately wants to move. Right now he mostly spins around the rug, but he manages to get places. He has a blast playing with all sorts of toys. I'll give myself a few more weeks before we are in full blown child proofing mode. Sigh.
What else is going on? We just got back from a lovely week on the Cape. Brought the kids camping and had so much fun. I was very nervous about bringing them camping, and the first night there I thought I was going to cry. I was so tempted to call a hotel. Both of them were still awake at 10:45 pm, with Molly jumping on the air mattress and Jack laughing at her. Finally I brought Jack back out of the tent and tried to nurse him yet again to go to sleep but he wouldn't do it. So into the car we went and he fell asleep almost instantly. Thank goodness for the magic movement of the car. The rest of the night wasn't so bad. Second night he went to sleep ok but woke up screaming at about midnight and wouldn't settle down inside the tent. I was finally able to get him to relax again by 1 am. The rest of the week was pretty much normal....Jack rarely sleeps through the night anyway, he is always wanting to snack. So he would do that and fall back to sleep. Molly was a dream...went to sleep by 9 pm and slept until 7 am every day. She doesn't sleep that good at home!
Here are a few photos of the trip:
