Tristan's Trying to Crawl

Tristan's been making some huge leaps lately. He's definitely a force to be reckoned with now. He's not technically crawling, but he scoots and low crawls really well. He can successfully get to anything on the floor already. Once he's mobile he's going to be GONE!! I can just tell. Luckily Noah's always right there and is the caring big brother type. I tried to upload the video, but I guess after the bike video it crapped out. Once again it's on the scrapbook site.

Tristan's also entered into the really frustrated baby stage. He wants to do so much, but he just can't. I've had to find more interesting things for him to experience to help keep him happy. Today we played in the kitchen sink for no particular reason. I was surprised at how stable he was sitting in there!

Ahh that is so cute. Matthew was slow to crawl and walk, but it was as like as soon as he got walking down...He ran. He is a runner and he is gone. No hesitation, he just goes. He out runs me for about 10 feet, which is scary. :)

Holy crap!!! That is crazy!!!!!

That is more then scooting, he is up on his hands and knees! He will be crawling all over the place before he even turns 6 months. That is amazing. Ava crawled at 6 &1/2 months and that was early compared to other kids.....5 & 1/2 months is really early....ok I'm done now,lol. I am just amazed at how strong he is already!!

I love the picture of Noah bathing Tristan. Ava loved the video and kept saying "Baby Tristan!....Baby brother!"

I kept explaining that he is Noah's baby brother....haha. Her response is "Ava's Tristan!" I guess she likes him :)

Allie Update

Though I have been depressed, life is trudging on. I had my 7mo baby appointment and everything is right on track. I'm 28wks and 5 days along. My belly is a whopping 29cm. I didn't get any guff about losing a little weight. My blood pressure wasn't high this time. My sugar test came back normal. I've got a little sciatica so the doc gave me some stretches to try out. She also suggested I finally cash in those 2 prenatal massage certificates I got for my birthday. Other than that, everything looks good. Noah got to press the button to find the baby's heartbeat. He loves this doctor, she always includes him. My friend Brandon, kind soul that he is, showed up yesterday to mow my lawn. He didn't just mow, though. He brought all his own equipment, including gas... he edged and weed whacked and blew all the clippings away. He went over the lawn twice so that everything would be mulched up pretty well. I couldn't believe how nice my yard looked. I

Victim Triangle

Image
Thought I would share this on here since I've shared it with at least 3 people individually at this point.  I've been working on  establishing and maintaining healthy personal boundaries  so any instance in my life where I have unhealthy boundaries have been really obvious.  Still not great at dealing with those instances, but I'm getting better all the time.  While I'm working, this keeps popping up at different times to illustrate my inter/intra-personal communication cycles that need to be broken. https://www.karpmandramatriangle.com/ The hardest part for me has been recovering from taking responsibility for everyone's emotional state.  I would feel immense pressure to involve myself in other peoples' triangles, thinking I had to play the mediator role.  I would get intense feelings of anxiety, thinking about their expectations of me to fix their relationship... or feel it was my duty to point out if I saw an issue (without ever being asked or expected

Enough Planning, More Doing

I've been researching, reading about, diving into, writing about, and thinking about building confidence and self-trust for about 8 years now. It's time to get more intentional and active about it. I think I'm ready to move into that phase finally. I have a tendency to take in information and keep mulling it over, writing and expounding upon this that and the other, but now it's time for an actual plan. An action plan. I understand the problem as much as I can from the outside looking in. Now it's time to create learning opportunities: to make mistakes and deal with the consequences or to achieve something and deal with the praise. That's the next phase of learning... doing . So today I am creating a specific list of tasks that I have to do in the months ahead that specifically target insecurities and seek to force me to deal with the reality of those insecurities. The goal is to be able to build resilience  by proving my old voices wrong with a stack of accompl
