As promised, here it is. I looked at the picture I posted yesterday and it makes me look like I am huge so I figured I would post another. Especially after I was at our music class today and one of the moms who is prego is huge and only 3 weeks more than me. So here it is.
As for our music class, Max was hit by another kid. The kid is about 3 months older than Max and I guess I have a question for moms that have older kids. Do all kids hit at a certain age or do some kids never hit? I was not upset when the kid hit him because I know the kid is a sweetie but his mom is pregnant too and maybe he is acting out or is he just being an older boy???
Well on another note-I think I did the superstar dance today because my kid waited to go to sleep until we got home. We came in and I made him a bottle and he waved goodbye to the down stairs and then I rocked him for a few and he got into bed. AAAAHHHHHH so nice. I felt like I am finally getting the hang of this sleep thing. Also Maxs sleep is getting better. I am sleeping 1/2 the night with him in his room and last night I only slept 3/4 with him. I am confident that by 23 months he will be doing pretty good but regardless I am happy with what we are doing. It works.

My kid has never hit anyone. Or bit. Or pinched.
I think for some it is a phase they need ot work through. But not all kids go through it.

My kids only hit each other. Never babies their own age, but I know that some kids do it out of frustration, my kids were more verbal about their frustrations though; screaming at the other kid, which is equally as embarrassing as when your kid hits another kid, I am sure. Also, my kids bit (mostly adults while roughhousing, not other children).
Cute belly.

Yep - you don’t look as big in that picture, but still quite a good bump for 3 1/2 months. Cute photo of you.
I think it is normal for kids to experiment with hitting and then there are some that never do. Sometimes, it has to do with having older siblings at home. Hope Max was not too upset.
Have a good evening, Rachel - take care - Kellan

You definitely look smaller in the whole body shot. Still very adorable!
Hailey doesn’t hit… yet. Several years ago I worked in daycare with toddlers and they do not all do it. I think it’s just a phase that some go through.
