Mommy Talk Tuesday! Coming Soon?!

I wanted to run something by you and see what you think! I love interacting with my readers on Facebook and Twitter and I LOVE discussing things that have to do with being a mother, babies, toddlers, and families! So I was thinking about having a weekly discussion post on my blog called "Mommy Talk Tuesday!". I would post a certain topic that would have to do with being a parent, or babies, or kids, or families and we could discuss it! Possibly even some friendly debate topics!

I'm not sure if I will just have the discussion in the comments or have a linky so others can blog about the topic and link up. What are your thoughts?! Do you like the idea?!

I'd also love to have a fellow blogger work with me on this so if you're interested please email me at mommyferg02(at)gmail(dot)com.

Sleep...What's That?!

It seems no matter how much you KNOW you're going to be sleep deprived as a parent, it's like you don't really KNOW until you are there in that moment of total sleep deprivation. I remember when I was pregnant with Noah, everyone told me "sleep now", "enjoy your rest while you can", "take advantage of sleeping in now" , etc. and I knew babies weren't born sleeping through the night but I really had NO idea how exhausting it really is to be a parent.

Then I guess I blocked it out of my memory or something because even though I went through it with Noah, I didn't remember how horrible it felt to come completely sleep deprived. Until about a week ago. Isaac still goes to bed pretty late. Usually it's around 10pm but every now and then it's closer to midnight or 1am! And lately he's only been going 4-6 hours instead of 8-10 hrs like he was doing. His naps are very random too. Sometimes he sleeps for 3 hours and other times it's only 20 minutes. What makes it harder, when you have two kiddos they rarely nap at the same time, so any hopes for getting a nap in myself goes out the window.

So that's why it takes me 3 days to write a blog post instead of an hour like usual. I spend most of my day trying to get one kid or the other to nap. I so enjoy blogging and will be so thankful when I can sit for an hour in peace and write a blog post, or read a book, or even take an hour long nap! Until then I will just keep trucking along, as I know many of you are doing!

So here's to all the sleep deprived mama's out there! We'll get through this and it's all worth it in the end! The word's I live by lately "THIS TOO SHALL PASS" :)

Wordless Wednesday! {Sweet Boys!}

Isaac is 3 Months Old!

I cannot believe it has been 3 whole months already! It's so funny how the months during pregnancy just drag, but once baby is here time flies!! 

At 3 Months Old:

-Isaac is sleeping 8-10 hours a night! 

- He is still nursing like a champ!

-He "talks" to everyone he sees.

-He ADORES his big brother and giggles and smiles at him whenever he is around! 

-He is trying to roll over from tummy to back AND back to tummy but hasn't accomplished either one quite yet. 

-Last time he was weighed (about 2 weeks ago) he weighed 13lbs 3oz!
