1 new video inserts & 1 adorable picture


Isn't this a cute picture? I just love it. My mom is doing some project for Thanksgiving and needs a picture of Jace looking straight-on into the camera. I have tried and tried to get a picture like that. During the process this picture showed up and I fell in love with it and decided to post it. Doesn't he just look so happy? He truly is a very happy baby.
One thing Pod loves to do is swing in his swing. There is a mobile & a mirror at the top that he looks at. I think he's recently noticed his voice because he'll look up in the mirror and just "talk" and smile ( I think he's laughing, but it's not a normal laugh like ours).


Every morning after he eats (& burps), I put him in the swing while I have my coffee and breakfast. Today he was just cooing and laughing, so I thought I would get the camera out to show you all. He is laughing and talking to me in this video.


Last night I introduced wheat back into my diet. It was one week and one day yesterday that I introduced the soy. He doesn't seem to have any problems/reactions whatsoever. I hope that he'll do just as well with the wheat. The allergens I have left to introduce back after the wheat are eggs, peanuts, and milk. The doctor didn't tell me what order to introduce items back, but did say to do the milk last. So I saved the three most common allergens for last.

I just got done giving Pod his bath. He loves to take baths! Lucky for me! Anyway, today I think we'll go to Target. The only diapers we have left are Huggies brand. They don't work good for Pod; they leak. We used the newborn diapers when he first came home from the hospital. They leaked all over the place, so we switched to Pampers. I've run out of Pampers and only have Stage 1 Huggies left. These are for 8-14 lbs. Well I started using them yesterday and the Huggies kept leaking. In fact, I was up at 3:00 this morning changing the crib sheets because his diaper leaked all over his bed. Poor thing was soaked on his back. I wiped him down and decided we're going to go get some Pampers and leave the Huggies for emergency use only. Target is having a special this week only that if you buy two cases of Swaddlers Pampers, then they'll give you a $10.00 Target gift card. So that basically makes each diaper about $0.18 (tax included) when you consider that Target is giving you $10.00 back in a gift card. That's not too bad considering they usually average around $0.29 each (tax included).
I've got to order a couple of cases of formula today, too, before I forget so I better get off of here. The baby is sleeping so it's a prime time to go get my shower & get my internet order to Neocate.
Talk to you all soon... enjoy the video!!

I just love this video! I just want to cry when I see him because I want to hold him again! His face is changing and he is so wide awake. I love the way he is talking and did you notice that when the Christmas carol was on he was listening to it because he got real quiet and wouldn't move. I think he likes music! Thanks, Jaime, for taking the time to post the video. He is so sweet. I can't wait to see him again!
