This summer we said goodbye to some old stuff and introduced some new stuff:
Goodbye to our boogie board (and playing on the countertop yikes!!)
Goodbye to tummy time on the bed (we roll too much now)
Alex loves his new walker (but can still only go in reverse)
A new place to sit and play!
And finally…..hello to the days of holding our own bottle!! This is a huge help for me when both boys are hungry at the same time. Now I can put one in the bouncy chair while he feeds himself. I still try to feed them separately so I can hold them while they eat, plus it’s much less stressful (trying to burp, dropping bottles, etc.). It’s nice to have options though.
And goodbye to the days of rocking babies to sleep all day long! You’ve probably heard all about my issues getting the boys to nap. For a while, I was doing a lot of rocking or walking to get them to fall asleep (and stay asleep). After some very tough weeks and after a tough decision to separate them into different rooms, I think we’ve gotten pretty good at naptime (for now until they change again!)
Goodbye to sharing a crib too!! Although that one we said goodbye to a long time ago. Even a short time together in a crib these days has ended in scratches or cries.
And to think we shared a crib for 3 months
Goodbye to hats that are too small now (and we never even wore!)
And hello to hats that are too big
