Disney On Ice With London and Trysten Four Months

Doesn't Harlowe look so excited to see Disney on Ice, ha!

Taking pics of two toddlers at the same time was hard, these were the best we could get.

Harlowe is not having it, look at that face.

Getting ready for nap time. I know Harlowe has a bottle but after this day she has moved on to the sippy cup.

Bath time with London. London and Harlowe are about two months apart and Harlowe just adores her. London is Dustin's best friend's daughter.

My beautiful, little Trystee. I don't know why I call him that but Dustin wants his nickname to be Mr. T, but I refuse, ha.

I love his big blue eyes, he is just the sweetest thing. I cannot get enough of him. Dustin thinks I am crazy because all I want to do is hold him and love on him all day. One day when I got done running, Trysten was still asleep and I was heading upstairs to get him, and Dustin stopped me and said are you really going to wake him up just so you can hold him. I had to stop and think about it, yes I am crazy, but I did check on him and he woke up on his own, ha.

When we tried to put London and Harlowe down for naps, Harlowe would not leave poor London alone. So we had to separate them, my poor baby gets so excited around other kids. She needs school desperately, hopefully after the holiday's we will enroll her.

Trysten is four months and his teeth are coming in so he is a big drool monster. He is such a strong little boy and grabs onto everything. He totally pinches me when I am feeding him or just holding him. He pinched my neck so hard it looked like Dustin left a hickey on my neck, ha. He is breastfeeding still but Dustin hates it because he always seems to spit up afterwards. And it is the nasty spit-up, clotty milk, gross. It is pretty gross because you don't even know he does it, I was walking around Target with a big glob of spit-up in my hair and shoulder and didn't even know it until Dustin was pointing at me in disgust. Apparently if Dustin bottle feeds him he never spits up, whatever:)

Trysten gets plenty of tummy time because since he was born, he has slept on his stomach, I am a bad nurse. He is sleeping pretty good, we feed him at 2300 and he will sleep until 0600 but if Dustin is watching him, he will sleep until I get home. Maybe not sleep but self soothe until I get home, ha, my poor baby.

He still hates the car seat but Dustin says he is getting better. But it seems every time I am in the car, he is crying, maybe it is me.

Okay, about Disney on Ice, not such a good idea. The show started at 11am and of course everyone was hungry so we got popcorn and the works, with cool cups and everything. Dustin left me with three kiddos by myself to get more food for his hungry butt. Of course the isle's were so tight we could barely move and I had Trysten in the baby Bjorn. I was trying to hold him, two cups without lids and a big tub of popcorn, big mistake. London's necklace went over the balcony, never to be seen again and the tub of popcorn went flying onto the poor lady in front of us and of course to top it off, I spilt one of the drinks too.

The two kids were not really paying attention and were to busy messing with the poor boy in front of us. Dustin was so embarrassed because the mom had to switch seats with him so Harlowe and London would leave him alone. Needless to say, the whole time we were there Dustin was asking me if I was on the pill, ha. And during intermission he couldn't take it anymore and said we needed to leave, but I guess he didn't want me to get mad so he said, I mean if you want to leave we can, ha. We of course left because I was trying to breastfeed Trysten in these little bitty seats and the poor man next to me probably thought I was crazy trying to maneuver every which way. It was absolutely crazy, I felt like a train hit me by the end of the day. I did not have any time to eat or even drink anything.

My friend Jodi has three little ones and I don't know how she does it. I thought two was hard. Hopefully next year we will have it under control and Dustin will agree to come with me again, ha.
