Our bike gets stolen. I file a claim. Allstate
decides the bike and iBert with depreciation is worth $300. After they
take away our $250 deductible they are sending us a check for $50. So .
. . is it worth it? All the hassle, filing a claim, considering at
what point our premium will go up, what effect this claim will have on
future home owners insurance, etc. If Allstate pays out more than $250
to us our premium will go up and just filing the claim at all may effect
our future premiums if we move in 3 years. THAT MAKE SENSE RIGHT??
THE WHOLE DUMB REASON I HAVE INSURANCE IS SO THAT IF SOMETHING LIKE THIS
HAPPENS I AM "COVERED". What a joke.

<br />
I am so happy that we discovered Elimination Communication for Cleo. She has been doing fabulous with it. She goes in her little potty most times. When we're out and about we put her in a diaper and sometimes it is amazing how long she will go without soiling it. (Trying to use nice words while talking about this type of thing is kind of difficult.) She most often naps without a diaper on. I love the idea of her being clean, airy, and comfortable while she sleeps. She has started to make the cue noise when she needs to go to the bathroom - which will be a HUGE step up when she can verbally communicate her needs. I have also gotten very comfortable taking her in her carseat without a diaper on. The first few times I thought for sure we would get home and have pee in the liner, but it has never happened! It isn't always convenient and definitely hard for me when other people seem uncomfortable because she isn't wearing a diaper, but I am so thankful to know that we can be pretty confident because of our own experiences with EC and Cleo.<br />
<br />
I work as a dental hygienist and Chris stays home with the kids. It is great great. Now that I've gotten over the unrealistic expectation that I'll walk through the door at 5:15 with a spotless house and dinner on the table it is anyway. Heck, I'm a clean freak and I certainly didn't have the house that way when Chris was working. Anyway, while I am working and I talk with patients oftentimes it comes up that I have kids and some people will ask who watches them while I'm at work. Something like this follows - <br />
<br />
"So, who watches your kids while you're at work?"<br />
<br />
"My husband is home with them."<br />
<br />
"Oh, what does he do?"<br />
<br />
"He's a stay at home Dad - full time."<br />
<br />
"Oh . . . " (silence).<br />
<br />
I get this feeling that they think it is better (at least more socially acceptable) if both parents work and kids are in daycare, than if the wife works and the husband stays home. I always want to respond, "Don't you think that one parent being home is better than none??" I'm sure I'm reading into the reactions of others based on my own insecurities but DANG it bothers me. Me working and Chris staying home has been wonderful for our family. Chris is a very loving and attentive father. He is always out riding bikes and doing activities with Cam and Cleo, feeding them spinach and broccoli all day. We feel good about me working, it results in more time that we can spend together as a family. Chris was working 40 hours a week at a job he hated for us to still be scrimping by with finances. I am able to work half the time as him doing something that I truly enjoy and we can be together as a family more often. Ain't nothing wrong with that.<br />

I've been forming a plan to put a pegboard in my kitchen because I felt like I was always drying/putting away/getting out certain pans to cook with.<br />

I have many people to thank for the completion of this project. Julia Childs for the idea. A YouTube Video of two guys putting up a pegboard in their garage. McKelle Nilsen for the idea to sand the label off so I could paint on a certain side, also for providing me with some sandpaper. Brooke Dickson Motes my painting consultant. Shane and Kenzie Stratford for letting us borrow their electric drill. Christopher Allen Moody for helping to put it into the wall. My downstairs neighbor for being at work during the extremely loud drilling into the wall for a few hours (we had a few troubles).

Take a deep breath in, and let it out slowly. Now read on.<br />
<br />
<b>Who?</b> The Moody's! (And the rest of the unindustrialized world.)<br />
<br />
<b>What?</b> Elimination Communication. Infant Potty Training. Natural Infant Hygiene.<br />
<br />
<b>Why?</b> It is all about better communication with your infant. Just like meeting her needs when she is hungry or tired, her elimination needs need the same kind of attention. I was first introduced to this idea by Mayim Bialik's book Beyond the Sling Chapter 7 "Baby Needs Potty" (a book I highly recommend by the way). Chris is very open to all/any new ideas so he was all for trying it so we did! <br />
<br />
<b>When?</b> Started Cleo at 6 weeks. And we don't practice this at night right now, though if we did I know Cleo would sleep better. She wakes up a few times each night really squirmy and I know she has to go, but I feed her instead to get her back to sleep. <br />
<br />
<b>Where?</b> Anywhere and everywhere. It is most easily done at home, because we can leave Cleo's bum bare and catch 90% of her going, but we do it at church, at my mom's, at The Browning Center during Nutcracker. It's hard not to do it when she is uncomfortable and I know why! We have her in a diaper when we're out and about just in case, but if there is a bathroom nearby we try her.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>How?</b> Tri-fold cloth diaper, elastic around the waist, leg warmers and socks. Fall/Winter doesn't seem like the best time to start, but we did it anyway. I tried her twice with nothing no results, but third times the charm!! Once we started there was really no turning back. And here we are 5 weeks later.<br />

One cool thing that we noticed was an immediate change in Cleo's demeanor after starting this. It is all about having good communication with your child and meeting their needs as quickly as you can, which is why it was a pillar in Malim Bialik's book on Attachment Parenting. I feel like it was a piece of the puzzle we were missing, and so Cleo would cry often where she didn't seem hungry and she didn't seem tired, but after EC (Elimination Communication) her temperament improved dramatically. The idea is that infant's never want to be sitting in their own waste, so they instinctively don't like going in a diaper. We train them to go in a diaper then 2 or 3 or 4 years later we retrain them not to go in the diaper, where if they stay aware of their elimination needs they end up being more comfortable and a bonus is that you end up spending less on diapers in the long run. I don't feel like I am saving tons of $$ on diaper usage yet, but if she is mostly out of diapers by age 1 instead of 2 or 3 that's a good chunk of money.<br />
<br />
We are now on week 5 of this method and it is great. She still pees in a diaper often, during naps and in the night, but she pretty much hasn't pooped in a diaper since mid-October and based on cleanup duty alone it has been totally worth it. <br />
<br />
Of course, there are skeptics and people who think we are crazy but nobody has voiced their opinion too strongly and we've kind of gotten used to some people thinking how we live our lives is incorrect, so we've gotten over it.<br />

She jumps right in. We were sitting around at 89 one day (I know what you're thinking. What else is new??) and she pulls out the ladder. Dad had mentioned that he didn't like that some of the tree branches touched the house. So, while Paul is sleeping on a blanket on the front lawn she whips out some large shears and a ladder. Up she goes on the roof and gets rid of those branches. No biggie. Obviously, Camden also wanted to get on the roof. I was hesitant at first, but he promised to stay close by Gug and listen closely to what she needed him to do.<br />

Chris worked 2:30 - 11 so it was just me and the kiddos. We went around our neighborhood with friends. Breck got candy for Camden at every door, because he would not go up to the door get candy from a stranger. Very interesting little child. The first bowl he personally took candy out of was Aunt Jennifer's near the end of our night. Then we went to 89 and hung out. This one day of wearing makeup reminds me of how awful it is. One day of the year is enough for me. I was so happy to scrape it off that night!C and MChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05589957521024063145noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301114321443214769.post-50690330594787942382012-11-02T07:44:00.002-06:002012-11-02T07:44:38.146-06:00Twinners?<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

I found it hidden in the pantry. I think I bought it after Camden was born, because I had trail mix (capitalized last time, but not this time!) in the hospital and really loved it. That tells you something else about me.<br />
<br />
I have implemented a CASH ONLY system (for non-bill items) at 905 S Main Street starting this month. Chris gets paid Thursday so . . . hopefully we have some $$ then. Nothing like a CASH ONLY system to make you realize how many dumb dollars you spend on dumb things.<br />
<br />
I did yoga and worked hygiene at my Dad's office today. My husband, whom I love, made me a deal. If I took a yoga class he would clean the bathroom. What does that tell you about how much he values physical activity? How much does that tell you about how annoying I am when I have not exercised and been home with the kids nonstop for the past 5 weeks? But really it is the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS! My husband who has not touched a Clorox wipe (or anything else anti-bacterial) to a toilet since we've been married (maybe/probably not before that either) will be cleaning the hall bathroom this week. AND the second yoga class I take is good for the bathroom in our bedroom.

Deets. Jemaine
and Bret were asked to write a charity song for Red Nose Day NZ 2012 in
aid of CureKids - a charity that funds medical research into
life-threatening childhood illnesses.<br />
The lyrics incorporate interviews with school kids that were recorded before they wrote the track.<br />
The song, produced by the legendary Printz Board, was recorded at Roundhead Studios in Auckland, New Zealand and features numerous New Zealand
artists.<br />

Actually, let's back up. On Tuesday a large box appeared on our doorstep. Camden was with Chris when he brought it in, so naturally he was curious. We told him it was his birthday present and his birthday wasn't until Saturday so he'd have to wait. He started ripping off tape, so we put it at the top of the closet where he can see it but not reach it. Every day he would see it up there and we'd talk about how many days until his birthday. It was so fun to see him excited and understanding it was on "Saturday" and the "8th". Well, that morning we got up (late as usual) and were just hanging out, planning to go to Cherry Hill when he saw the package and knew it was his birthday so he could open it! It was a Bow and Arrow Chris got him. Camden has been obsessed with Arrows for forever, it all stemmed from watching Robin Hood. He struggled for awhile to be able to string his own bow, but by the next day he was a PRO!<br />

Then we went to Cherry Hill. Chris and Cam have never been. I pretty much read while Cleo slept all day, but it was really fun to see my two boys playing. They went on Cardiac Canyon, but Cam had to be in his own tube, so about 1/4 a way down that he was done but what can you do but hurry down? Really what he loved most was the Lazy River. The water is about 3 feet high so with Cam up on his tip toes he could pretty much keep his head up. He bounced along there for probably 6 hours that day. Later in the evening Erica, Jared, Paul, Kelsey, Mom and Dad came! It was SO FUN! Kelsey held Cleo and Mom held Paul while I went on Cardiac Canyon with Chris, Erica and Jared. First we had a chain of 4, then we did teams of two and Chris and I BEAT. Chris fell out of his tube onto my arm at one point, my ears hurt afterwards from being way cold, and I got that headache that I always get when I have been laughing too hard. It was way way fun. Way. We brought picnic food and so we could come get a bite in between lazy river rounds. Makes me want to go there more often next year. Camden was doing front flips (somersaults) in the lazy river water, it was pretty sweet. <br />

I was right at the side of the main sidewalk above Pirate's Cove, so while I had my book (<i>The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat)</i> I was constantly being distracted from reading to watch all the interesting people go by. (P.S. People watching is THAT much more interesting when you involve swimming suits.)<br />

Cleo pretty much slept all day. Little beaut.<br />
<br />
<br />
The next day we had a little family get together for Camden and all the September birthdays in my family. There are 7! I baked the cake early in the day, but hadn't done the apple dip or peanut butter bars yet when everybody took a nap. MIRACLE! However, when we woke up at 6:45, people coming over at 7:30, still things to make and newborns to feed it was a bit of a rush.<br />

Poor Camden wants to play with Cleo all day every day, but she sleeps so dang much it becomes a problem. Her umbilical stump fell off, hooray! The little gDiapers are wonderful. She is becoming more awake when everyone else is going to sleep, not hooray! Not eating as much as my ducts think she should be, so I already have like 5 bags of breastmilk sitting in the freezer.<br />

The "Marathon of Labor" is over for a few years. Here is a little glimpse into how we spent our Sabbath yesterday.<br />
<br />
4:13am - Contraction woke me up.<br />
<br />
4:20am - Another contraction that woke me up.<br />
<br />
4:46am - Chris called our midwife, Heather Johnson, to report.<br />
<br />
5:06am - Needed counter pressure through contractions. Poor Chris was frantically moving furniture out of the living room, trying to set up the birth pool, and be there for me when I needed him. He was getting a workout for sure.<br />
<br />
5:49am - We were hoping Cam would sleep straight through the morning, but the pump for the pool woke him up. He was wanting attention that we couldn't really focus on him at that moment, so we called my Mom and she came to play with him.<br />
<br />
6:00am - Heather arrived and put an IV of antibiotics in me, for Group B Strep.<br />
<br />
At some point I got in the birth pool. It was much needed relief. Labor is such a mental game. I was trying to stay on top of it, but towards the end kept asking how much longer it would be. I was extremely thankful to have pretty good breaks/rests between contractions even right up to the end. Using voice really helped me with labor, so it was a little cacophonous in our house.<br />
<br />
The midwives broke my water upon my request and it was maybe 3 contractions afterwards that I said, "I'm getting her out in one push." The midwives kind of advised against that, as it would increase my likelihood of tearing, they said if we ask you to slow down you should slow down. But when the next one came, I pushed, and then I stopped, and it didn't feel better, so OUT SHE CAME! What an amazing, beautiful, relief to finally have her in our arms. (I did tear, but that was something I was willing to deal with at the moment. Later when I was getting stitched up I thought maybe I could have been more patient.)<br />
<br />
The midwives stayed, helped, cleaned up, did the newborn exam and everything until after 11:00am. Cleo nursed, Chris slept, I was in and out of sleep but kept getting woken up by afterbirth pains. Chris made me oatmeal, cantaloupe, and applesauce. We watched Return to Me, sobbed and laughed then got up and moved around for a bit.<br />
<br />
Camden went to church with my mom and played all day over there. Actually he slept from 2 - 7pm, he's not used to being up at 5am!<br />
<br />
It was nice having some time for Chris and I. We talked and laughed about Cleo's birth, played Phase 10, and just caught up. We don't get to talk much with me working days and Chris working nights.<br />
<br />
One thing I had wanted when she was born was for it to be in the night/early morning and then all of a sudden we could just announce she was here safe and sound! And with the exception of my mother knowing and being here, that is what happened! It was wonderful. Nobody had to be worrying about how it was going or anything. <br />
<br />
She weighed 8 lbs 10 oz, 21 inches long, born at 7:26am. <br />

Taking care of a newborn again is crazy. They need you in such a different way than a 3 year old. She looks so much like Camden, it is like deja vu. So thankful for loving friends and family who are so supportive and loving. C and MChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05589957521024063145noreply@blogger.com12
