Hi all!! Sorry I have been MIA!!
So we finally get to take some much needed time off for vacation! We headed up North for a while and spent time with DH's family since we never get to see them and they had a surprise Arrival shower for Brayden that was really amazing!! We had such a good time. We also took my daughter and her best friend to Cedar Point for a couple days. That was also Great!
I have missed you all.. and I see that I have missed many arrivals and some other news that was a little heart breaking!
Brayden is growing like a weed! He is now 25 inches long and now weighs 12 lbs 8 oz! He is smiling, giggling, cooing, smacking his lips for kisses, hold his hands up for us to pick him up, trying to crawl (but really only scoots) and is eating like a champ. He isn't breast feeding any more but can put away a bottle of formula like no other! I was down about him losing interest in BF'ing but quickly got over it when I came to realize that I am just so thankful that he is healthy! I know I am missing some of the other great things he is doing but overall.. he is just moving right along! I hope everyone's little ones are doing great also!
Hope to hear how everyone is doing and will be trying to catch up! I will post new pics as soon as I can! LOTS of emails to get caught up on!!
Hugs to you all!!

Always great to hear from you and I am glad you had a nice vacation. Also, so great to hear Brayden is doing so well!! Welcome back!!
HI Patty,
Glad to see you are back.. and how nice to be able to all get away and relax and just enjoy a great family get together! Wow Brayen is getting so big! yep he is gonna be atall one~ I wish we had some nioce amusement parks out here those are great fun =)
About the bf thing .. at least you tryed yor beast.. Tyler has not wanted to bf during the day at all for the past 2 months so I pump every 4 hr and give him it in a bottle and nurse him at night... wow it seems like so much more work.. but he is well worth it! It still makes me sad sometimes knowing he wont nurse during the day, but at least he gets the milk... I am only going to do this till he is 6 months and try and transition him on to formula...
These babies are growing up tooo fast/... y ep seems like yesterday we all joined this forum with our new bfp or in thet ttc or tww land.. wow we have all come through some hard and great time togther... it has been great! glad to see most of us are still here tough it is hard to get on everyday anymore.. but at least we all stay intouch =) and can watch all our med babies grow up!
Patty glad all is good with you and your family.. please keep in touch and I LOVE the new pics !!!!!

Thanks Sally, we certainly did have a great time!
Christina- lil Christopher is so cute!! I can't believe how much our lil ones are growing! They won't be little like this forever. Lots of times I just sit around watching him, really enjoying him yanno.
Sheri!! So glad to hear from you! Glad your new place is working out good for you all. Sydney does sound like a dream! And Big! YAY!! I hope Brayden grows bigger in the coming month. He is now 3 1/2 months and is really putting on the inches more so then the weight. It will all catch up I'm sure!! Glad to hear from you!!
Jen!-- Good Luck on Friday! I will be thinking of you as I have been there! I know what you are going through with the hernia, but can't tell you what it is like having that surgery with having a little one to take care of! Good Luck and I sure hope you have help (as I'm sure you do!) Cedar Point is the best, specially in Ohio because of it being surrounded by Lake Erie! It's so beautiful there! It was nice, DH's parent live 20 minutes from there so it isn't so bad spending the extra cash on a hotel. And the Top Thrill Dragster is well.. yes SCARY!! I will NOT ride that ride, although my DH and DD absolutely love it! Crazy ones they are!
I know what you mean about the lil ones thinking we are a bottle.. it's so cute when Brayden goes to kiss my lip and starts sucking on it.. I'm like no baby, that isn't your binky (which just out of nowhere he starts wanting it ALL THE TIME *his binky*). Kind of crazy, I never could get him to take it, then one day he can't live without it! I'm so glad, it really is nice to give it to him if he hasn't had quiet enough sleep and starts to stir just because he wants something to suck on.
Our babies are soon not going to be babies anymore huh :o( It seems like yesterday we were all just finding out we were pregnant! Oh what wonderful scary memories! Glad we all had each other to lean on for comfort when things got a little more scary and rough! And so glad everything turned out absolutely great! I just wish that some of the others that have been TTC from the fertility forum would get what they so much deserve too!! Just have to keep them in our thoughts and prayers and keep sending them all the sticky baby dust we can!!
I really hope things are good for you on Friday and I wish you a very speedy recovery!! I'll be thinking of you!!

Hi Patty!!!
Was wondering where ya've been. My daughter's been wanting to go to Cedar Point FOREVER!! She keeps getting out these darned pamphlets trying to get us to go (like i want to ride those SCARY rollercoasters!).
Gosh, you talking about Brayden's kisses reminds me of No's. He kisses me like no other - yesterday I guess he thought I was a bottle (huh!) and licked me!! I can't wait to share THAT w/him when he gets older - ha, ha!
Glad to have ya back - can you believe how big our babies have gotten?? I held Noah today thinking it wouldn't be much longer until he would be too big to hold like this :-0 - jen

Hey everyone!! Ive been off for awhile but Sydney is doing great!!! She is sleeping great, and doesnt cry hardly ever. She is about 18lbs at 4 months old!!!! She is a dream!! We moved to a bigger house and things have settled down. How is everyone doing????
Yay! So good to hear from you and see you back around. I've been lurking a ton and not posting much...love to read up on everyone! Little Christopher is 3 months old and is just our little Chunker...talk about putting down formula like no other!
Hope all is well w/ you!!
