November wrap up

Sorry for slow posts but I am just to busy and exhausted at home to post every week :)

Well first off so far so good on the dairy free diet. I have now been dairy free for 2 weeks and Max has been on his new acid reflux med for about a week and a half. So far only spit up 2-3times!! Also feeding times are much better!! He doesn't scream bloody murder anymore!! This is great news for us! Now it is time for me to wean Max from the shield....we have a successful latch on at almost every feeding but he gets mad and after a few sucks and won't latch back on unless the shield is there....errrr.


Well now that his reflux is under control let's see what else can happen to keep our lives interesting....How about let's have Max start to teeth and let's have my thyroid get all messed up? That's right folks our little max seem to be teething. He has been drooling like crazy for about a month and for the last 2 weeks chewing on his hands like they were crack and for the past several days he has been super fussy. The last 2 nights he has not slept well at all waking up at 1am, 2am, 2:15, 2:45-sleeping on couch with him, 4am, 5:30, and finally staying up at 7am. Needless to say both Scott and I are exhausted. His lower teeth are the one's that come in first and his gums don't look swollen or red yet. I even checked his ears but they look fine, so it has to be teeth. Yes almost 4mo may sound early but my baby book has my first teeth being in at 4 1/2mo. Also I have been loosing my hair like crazy(which is normal after having a baby) but I did some blood work on me anyways and low and behold my thyroid is all messed up! It looks like I have postpartum thyroiditis. Anyways I have a appointment with a thyroid Dr in 2 weeks to see if anything need to be done or if we just watch it.

Max's usual sitter left early to go on vacation for Thanksgiving so Max was lucky enough to go and stay at Ms. Melissa's for a couple days. She already watches Madison Claire and has 2 kids of her own so she had her hands full! They even did a art project...Max's first! Max truly enjoyed his time there......Thanks sooooo much!
Our friends Shannon and Aaron had their little boy Tanner so we packed up and headed to Martin to meet him. While we were there we met up with Scott's Cousin Jacob who goes to college there.
Max had some Christmas pics taken last week. you can go here and click on galleries. Username is Bolden, Password is Max.

My birthday was this past week. I have turned the big 28. I had the day off so Max and I hung out at the house(Which was a great idea because he cried alllllll day, gotta love teething) and that night we went to toots for dinner with some of our friends. It was the first time we have all been out with all of our kids. It was quite the group. Thursday was Thanksgiving so we loaded up and headed to see some of my family near Clarksville. We got to see Uncle Donnie(It was his first time to meet Max). After eating we headed back to Murfreesboro to eat with Scott's dad. Because it was just the 3 of us for dinner we went to Cracker barrel. We even got in a little shopping. I didn't want to use the stroller around in crowded stores so I put Max in my sugarsweet wrap. He did great and even fell asleep.

Friday night we had our last thanksgiving feast at Aunt Jackie's. I had to work so Scott and Max went early. As always Max was the center of attention




And last but not least Max is ROLLING OVER!!!!! He first did it on the 21st. I had him on his belly(which he hates) and the next thing I knew he was laying on his back. I tried to get him to do it again but he wouldn't. I called Scott freaking out, he didn't believe me. The next day on my birthday I put him back on his belly in front of Scott to see if he would turn over again and low and behold 2 more times! Now just about every time you lay him on his belly he rolls over! I am trying to capture this on video.
