Ramblings

So C has an official diagnosis of Sandifer Syndrome cause by gastroesophogeal reflux (GERD). This is something bengin and something he will grow out of. The sensation of the reflux messes with his immature central nervous system causing him to have these "shudders". Weird, I know, but I don't care as long as he is fine! The nuerologist says he looks great and is developing on schedule if not ahead of schedule so praise the Lord for that.

We had our garge sale over the weekend and sold about $180 worth of stuff. I still have a lot of baby clothes that I don't know what to do with. I might save them for when my sister has a baby, no pressure or anything ;-).

B is still not potty trained and Mike is a little worried about it, but I reassured him that there are a lot of boys who aren't potty trained by 3 (hopefully we are not one of them). B is repeating everything we say now and I realize there are a lot of phrases that I say which I didn't realize. Since he communicates as we do I notice him saying "Oh my God/goodness" , "cool", "awsome", "come on", "please and thank you" (this one I like), "hi my baby", "babe", and many others. He is really turning into a little man and its excited yet sad. I miss my baby.
Speaking of, I can't decide if I am done having babies. Mike is done for sure so I guess I have to be. Since I am most likely switching jobs we are thinking he needs to get "the big V" while I am still on Kaiser insurance since it will be cheaper. The thought of making it permanent is so sad. When I see brand new babies it makes me miss it (even though mine is 4 months old). I really thought I was done while I was pregnant, but for some reason I just don't know.

C has followed in B's foot steps yet again and has started developing dread locks. I saw his first one this weekend. My kids have freakishly long and wispy hair that tangles up into dread locks that I have to try and comb out or cut out. We won"t be cutting his hair until his first birthday, so I have a long journey ahead of me.

Seems like both kids have been sick a lot. C has been sick 3 times in his four months of life and B seems to have been sick off and on the entire summer. I really hope this gets better and I am sure they do to. C can't eat very well because he can't breath out of his nose, so he get really fraustrated. Loving being a mom though.
