Barbara: they are red spots, sometimes called strawberry marks which are basically a bunch of blood vessels. Wyatt's are just blooming like mad. I noticed 3 new ones today and one of them is on his eyelid Most of the time an infant gets one and they mostly affect girls and preemies.
Love the 3 pictures that you posted, Brooke is the perfect combination of both of you!
We moved Brooke from her bassinet in our room to her crib in her room yesterday. I cried and slept on her floor for a few hours... But I believe that it's for the best since she's sleeping on a better mattress and be less bothered by us moving around at night and snoring. We've got a baby monitor, one with sound and motion. Despite the monitor, Dad and I keep getting up to go in there to look and check but so far she does appear to be sleeping better.
When did you move your baby(s) into their own room? Brooke will be 8 weeks tomorrow.

Barbara - We've been trying to get the boys to sleep in their cribs at night for a couple weeks now. Not that they aren't doing it, it's just a little tough when one starts fussing to leave him in there for fear of his brother being woke. It was really tough on me, especially the first few nights. We had them sleeping in bed with us (I know... shame, shame! ) and I would go in there to listen for breathing and check their hands to make sure they weren't cold. Even brought them into our bed to snuggle for no good reason a time or two.
I feel your pain!

A few days ago, Brooke started rolling from her back onto her side. In the mornings, we've been finding her all over her crib instead of where/how we left her. Today, we watched as she flipped from her belly to her back for the first time! It is amazing how fast babies grow and develop.

I have a question of breadfeed. My nipples are inward and I think this will cause problem for breastfeeding. Do you have any recommendations or should I make an appointment with pediatrician??
Thanks a lot!

Your babies' pictures cracked me up. They are so cute...

Ryann: What gorgeous babies you have!! They are getting so big!
Yingz: Try breast shields, they should help with the inverted nipples, if not see a lactation consultant at the hospital.
Lou: Chloe is a real beauty!
My boys are growing up so fast, rolling and scooting around. The past 6 months has just flown by!

I just wanted to do a quick post about Brady and Jaxon. My boys are both rolling from back to front and front to back. If we put them down on the blanket in the living room and go to make bottles, when we come back just a couple minutes later, they are on opposite ends of blanket! Once, DH said Brady was on the other side of Jaxon from where he left him... He STEAMED ROLLED his little brother! They both sit up so well when assisted, I figure just a few more weeks and they'll be working on sitting up all by their little selves. My, how the time flies!!!
Hope all the beautiful babies on our board are doing fabulous!!!

Hey ladies. Here is the latest of Marlo, and me with all my girls. She is doing so awesome!! 10lbs 5oz, at 13 weeks adjusted! Really 6 months old though. Holy Cow.
How are you all? Surviving the sleepless nights I hope!

Steph- that's hilarious that Brady steamrolled his brother! So neat to watch them grow, isn't it?
Mellow- love the pic of the girls. Awesome Marlo is doing so well.
AFM- Chloe sleeps 5-6 hrs at a time at night now. We are looking into day care options for when I go back to work after Christmas. I don't wanna leave her!
