Hey ladies, I have been on as much in a long time. Just couldn't find time between Preston and Edward. Edward had really bad temper tantrums when I was on the computer, I think he was feeling neglected. When I stopped getting online, he would behave better so he just needed mommy time. But all is better. Preston is sitting up on his own now, and he weighs a good 20lbs at least. My lactation nurses are very proud of "our chubbalicous preemie" as they call him.

We are still breastfeeding and cloth diapering. Preston is just now on 1st foods and cereal. He has zero interest in crawling. Edward is 100% potty trained.

It didn't take long, he is just stubborn and it took me longer to make him believe it was truly a good idea!

He still does well withPreston, but now there is the typical sibling rivalry. Preston is now interested in Edward's toys and Edward gets upset. Preston says 'Dada' and Edward says 'No, my dada.' But other than that, they do very well together. Chris and I are doing well also. Chris is up for a management position at work and I got two at-home-jobs. I just have to decide which I want or if I want to be brave and tackle both. Chris and I are going to start TTC again once he gets the management position and we're a little more settled financially. My cousin just had a baby girl, so we both have baby girl fever!

Here are pics of the boys:

Hi Brandi! I am so glad you updated. I've been wondering how you've been. The boys are adorable. Wow, it's hard to believe Preston is already 8 months old. It feels like you just had him. I will be sending you baby girl vibes.

It's good to hear from you Brandi! The boys are so adorable! I'm so glad everything seems to be going well. I know you were struggling alot with layoffs and everything before Preston came. Good luck with the at-home jobs!
