Exhausted

I cannot tell you why, but for some reason, Allison is not sleeping at night anymore. All she wants to do is be held. It is making for a tired and cranky Mommy and Daddy. I think it should be if you start sleeping through the night, you should stay sleeping through the night. I mean at 14 months, you would think you need as much sleep as possible. I just don't get it. Blah, kids, right?

We are headed to the pumpkin patch this weekend with the kiddos next door and a few others. It will be alot of fun. It is so funny to see Allison playing with the twins. Even though they are two months younger than her, they are taller. She has two boyfriends, but definetly has a favorite. She follows Victor everywhere and he just laughs and babbles at her. Poor Daddy is already nervous that his little princess likes boys. LOL I wonder if they actually understand each other and their babbling. Sometimes it seems like they do, but others they just talk at each other. It is still cute nonetheless.

Matt and I are doing this diet thing. Of course Matt is eating more, but losing way more weight. It is so not fair. I eat way less and run after a 14 month old all day and he loses more weight. ICK! Well, hopefully I will still lose weight in the long run. We are going to buy a jogging stroller so we can start jogging in the evenings. We tried with our stoller, but it just does not work. I guess that is why they make jogging strollers. LOL

Here is a pic of Allie and Daddy at Oktoberfest a few weekends ago. Just for your viewing pleasure of course. LOL

It has been a long time

Eeek, I am horrible. I totally forgot about this after I moved back to Georgia. Things have been going great. Matt came back from Iraq, we went on vacation to Disneyworld and Atlanta, and are in the process of purchasing a home. We are preparing since Matt gets out of the Army in March. Allison is one and boy she sure is trying to exert her independence. I can sense that the terrible two's have started and may not end for a looooong time. She is a character though. You can definetly tell when she has done something she is not supposed to have done. She has this look. Well, now that I remember that this is here, hopefully I will keep it updated.

Cereal

Well, we started cereal with Allison even though the doctor said to wait until 5 months. She was ready for it. I do not think she likes the taste very much. She gets this look on her face like what did you just put in my mouth. I hear it is best to give them a new thing each week to get their bodies used to it so next week we will try some baby food that has a little more taste to it. Hopefully she likes that better. I know she likes mashed potatoes because my dad gave her some on Thanksgiving. Now, she thinks if we are having potatoes she should be. It is funny because she stares at us while we are eating dinner and licks her lips. I have been giving her biting biscuits, but those are not good enough for her. She wants the yummy stuff she can see. I guess she is going to have an appetite like her Daddy.
