i can't believe my bubba is 15 months old! meme took trace for his 15 month check up yesterday. he is getting so big. he weighs 21 lbs 12 oz and is 31 1/2 in long. he got a great report... the only thing we have to work on is getting trace to drink milk from a sippy cup. we took him off the bottle about a month ago, which means he hasn't had milk in a month. my child is so stubborn... i know, look at his parents - right? trace thinks milk comes in a bottle and juice is in a sippy cup. he gets sooo mad when i give him a sippy cup of milk. he will take 1 sip and once he realizes that it's milk, he usually lets it drip out of his mouth. so we are on a mission. pray that he decides milk from a sippy cup tastes ok afterall. but honestly, he is his mama's boy. b/c i HATE milk. i will drink chocolate milk, and i might have a glass of ice cold milk with hot chocolate chip cookies, but that's it. i don't even like milk in my cereal. so i can say i know where trace gets it from. but he used to like milk when it came from a bottle so i don't know what the real issue is, other than stubborness! we've tried all kinds of sippy cups under the sun, and we've tried warming his milk and keeping it cold. trace is just not giving in! hmmm. so that's the only concern our dr has. we will overcome this problem one way or another.
other than that our family is doing good. i guess i'm doing good anyways. i had to have a tooth pulled on wednesday so i am still trying to recover... i just hope it heals ok and doesn't get any infection. yuk. let's not talk about that! and i'm having some morning sickness, except it's not only in the morning and i never actually get sick. i just feel so ugghh all day. like i'm hungry but can't find anything that i want to eat. hopefully these next few weeks will get better! i don't want to complain b/c i am very thankful of the new life god has given us. but i just wish i felt a little better!
well, we have a full weekend with 2 birthday parties and a baby shower saturday. and getting together with good friends tonite and sunday. so maybe this mama can find time to rest at some point!!
here are some recent pics of trace and his fun cousins. enjoy.

I hope you get to feeling better soon!! It would be great to get together on the fourth! Let me tell you too that sometimes we all (Page,Jason,kids,me,Clint,kids) go to a Baron's game and stay for fireworks!! Ya'll come too!! It would be so much fun and since we don't get to see the Red Sox then it would be perfect!! Page is usually in charge of the Barons so I'll give her a heads up!!
Yay!!!
Excited til we see you!!
Love Ya, Silena
Oh tooth pulled! OUCH!
I remember that sicky first trimester feeling...praying for you!
What cute cousins! And I love that last pic!
Hang in there...You are far better at Morning sickness than me! I'm cheering for you and so excited about the bebe!!
My advice...just give Trace a bottle...Ha...Just kidding!! I want to know what the Dr. said about it...does he have to drink it, what did he say? What's gonna happen if he doesn't drink milk?
page - the dr said he can only have WATER or MILK. but ummm... i've cheated and given him juice. he's sooo stubborn he just won't drink milk. and we are so not going back to the bottle... i say his mama doesn't drink milk and she turned out just fine... right??? i have been given him yougurt daily and he loves cheese, so he gets his dairy/calcium in other places. oh, and ice cream :)
