Okay, I am blogging!? Our computer charger broke, so I haven't been getting on the computer. Yeah, this is being typed on my iPhone so bare with and don't expect a long post.
The other day I was breastfeeding while babywearing my cloth diapered baby, and I was cooking dinner with coconut oil. I had to stop and say,"who the hell am I?" Really.. I did that. I have gotten really awesome at multi-tasking and being weird, I mean crunchy. Okay, weird.
I am very proud to announce that we are still breastfeeding, and Austin is super healthy! At his 4 month appt he was 15 lbs and 25 in long. It is amazing to know that he is growing because my body is providing the nutrition he needs. As I LOVE it! It is an incredible bond, but really it is so easy! Here is a boob. No bottles or formula to pack in the diaper bag. I have nothing against formula, I just love the convenience of my boob containing the milk. Getting through the first couple of months is key to success. I swear Austin nursed constantly, not to mention our rocky start. But I haven't pumped in weeks! I did give him a bottle to make sure he took one the other day though. My mom is coming for the USMC ball and he needs I take a bottle. He takes it! Looks at me like wtf, but drinks it! I pumped a lot in the beginning so I have over 200 oz in the freezer. I was worried about over supply tho, so I just stopped. Plus, pumping sucks. My goal was to feed from the tap and we are doing it ad doing it well.
As for the babywearing shenanigans. Yep, I'm obsessed with wearing my kids (Connor likes it too) and I love the pretty wraps! We are having so much fun with it. I am positive that I am so annoying, but I don't even care. Wearing A allows me to do fun things with C. We bake cookies, dance, have pillow fights, read.. All the while A is passed out on my back! L-o-v-e. Love.
Connor is potty training still. This is hard. If he's naked, he will go potty, every time. If he is wearing underwear, guaranteed poopy pants. So, he's naked all day. I'm trying to come up with something to prevent poopy pants, but For now he just runs around with no pants on. I think our trip to VA kinda threw him off too. Meh. As long as he is potty trained before kindergarten!
I will update more on our lives later, tho I'm sure the copious amounts of pictures I post on FB and Instagram are enough! 😊
