Here is the cooking blog. I have started adding recipes.

Cooking Blog

I am going to start a cooking blog to share recipes. Shayla and I talked about doing this a while ago but never did. If you want to join it, let me know and we can do one blog to post favorite recipes on. Share your thoughts, what do you think?

Ohhhh, Baby got gas

So, Reece has been struggling with gas issues.....how, I don't know, considering his parents.

He can't get his gas worked up to burp and he just cries, and cries. I gave him Mylicon in hopes it will work. I don't know if it really has or not. He also spits up his food like he is putting out a fire. Don't bother even wearing nice clothes, they will get soaked. If you have words of wisdom, do tell!

Stats

(sorry, picture is kinda blurry)

At Reece's one month check-up here are his latest stats:



Head is 15 1/4 inches (50th percentile)

Length is 21 1/2 inches (50th percentile)

Weight is 10 lbs. 11 1/2 oz. (70th percentile......hungry little man!)

I love.........

........being a mom! It is so fun and great! Reece has started smiling a bit, especially when he wakes up, he looks at me with a happy face. Then it turns sad because he wants to eat, and he wants to eat NOW!! I am finally getting into a routine and getting time to go to the bathroom. I only have 2 full weeks left at home before I have to return to school. I am getting sad about leaving my baby, but hey, all they do right now is eat, sleep, and poop...right?

My MIL is going to be watching Reece everyday. I am happy that I don't have to just drop him off at a random babysitting place. I think I will cry though when I have to leave him. :(

Happy Baby

Yes, there are new pictures(post below), but found a cool website and some other random things

So, if you want to take up a new hobby of baking, check out this website!
Since I have so much extra time these days (ha, ha, ha) I think I will start cooking!
Okay, maybe in a few more months down the road. But also check out the other links on this page too. It's at least fun to look at!

Calming a fussy baby...........
seriously, I tried the methods from a book called "The Happiest Baby on the Block" and it works!
I was getting frustrated at trying to figure out how to calm Reece in a way that just didn't take as long. It calms him in minutes!

Look at me!

"Oh great, this lady has dressed me in an outfit with puppies and she is taking my picture"
"I am looking cute"

"Okay, the first two pictures were enough, and I think I just pooped"

"Yeah, I pooped"
