Never thought about it

Growing up in a big family with many brothers I was very protected. I was thought I was like a bird in the cage can't fly high and can't go anywhere. However, I am so grateful and thankful for all the men in my life who love me and protected me. They always told me to be away from any vices like cigar, alcohol and drugs. Besides, I have a good determination to finish school and to have a better life than what we had. Thankfully God is awesome and faithful to me. Otherwise it would be like a punch cigars in my mouth blowing anywhere at anytime. There would be a miserable lifestyle if my family letting me go in worldly directions.

Sleep good

Two weeks after my son 9 month Dr. appointment as his Dr. advised that we should let him sleep in his bed every night. That give us both confident that the boy can have a better sleep also we do. And now, I felt better to get up in the morning. I got better sleep for a long time.

I think my body not used of it anymore and I'm having changes again. I am sleepy and wanted to sleep till noon now. Johan drank his water/juice when he woke up in the middle of his sleep and go back afterwards.

So funny this morning, he woke up like 3am play in his bed like jumping, laughing, making noise but not crying so my hubby and I didn't get up to join him. When he realized that no one wanted to joined him he decided to go back to sleep. I thought that was hilarious how he did that but that's kid they always be kid. They will do funny stuff in the eyes of the adult but in the other side we will letting him know that that was funny. We are still parents not tolerating their action that later on be a pain to us.

New ipod touch

Few weeks ago, one of my co-worker wanted to buy the new ipod. I don't really desire to have one so far and that's awesome. Does anyone own a 32gb ipod touch? I'm sure you are enjoying it a lot. I know more people now a days prefer to have ipod where they can do their stuff like uploading and saving lots of music. They can also access other website.  For me, I'm happy and thankful for my laptop.  I do most everything from communication, networking and writing blogs.

Soothing Johan sleeping in his bed#2

Lastnight is better than the first night. He went to bed 8:45PM and had few cries only maybe 2-3 times and not bad as the first evening. He slept better and longer as we observe. When I came in lastnight he was snoozing...in his deep sleep. I picked in his bed and I feel like picking him up and put in ours but I resisted.

My hubby feel the same too. When Johan was making a sleepy noise he told me I want to grab him and put him in the bed with us. No! I said. We are going back to step 1 again if we do that. It seems that the strategy that his Dr. given to us is very effective than what we read from other website.

You have to know your child and let your child know that you are still his parents. We were not saying that we really acting like the boss but showing him our comfort and love. Assuring him that we love him so much and we are always there for him. His nap time also are better. Right now, he is in his own bed trying to ease and soothing himself to take his nap. I didn't heard any cries only his little whining voice. He is getting better and better.

Religious gifts and baby gifts

Last year, one of my baby shower someone gave me a religious gifts and baby gifts. It's a cross that can be hang on the baby's door or anywhere in his room. My hubby and I like it a lot. We want our son to know who is Christ is and who he is to Him! I'm so glad that there's a christian place here in Little Rock where we can find awesome religious stuff. From books and to religious wording shirts.

Rv repairs shop

I didn't know if there's a special place where you can get your rv repairs? I am sure like cars shop there are some places who deal with Rv's problem. As I've known with one of our relatives who own an Rv he is the one who fix any problem of their Rv. He is really good about in any cars I'm sure he got the idea on dealing the Rv's problem. They use their Rv anywhere they travel and they like it cause they're bringing their whole house with them.

Soothing Johan to sleep

What's up? Why you won't go back to sleep in your own bed. You were doing so good for so many weeks. What happen? I kept asking this question to my infant when we put him in his bed at night and then he want to sleep with us. When he don't feel good I understand that he needs comfort from mommy and daddy. But it has been difficult for me and him. For me, because I kept thinking hope he will not crawl out of the bed while me and his daddy are sleeping.

Couple times I woke up and look for him he was on the other end of the bed. That scare me and keep telling my husband we need to put him in his crib. But 'twas hard because he cried to the top of his lungs. I'm so glad we live in our own house so neighbor could not hear baby's cry at night.

Yesterday, was his Dr. appointment and blessed to hear that his Dr. told me that he is perfectly healthy. No problem about feeding him and weaning him in the bottle since he drink from cp cup sometimes and that's our goal that he will not use his bottle when he turns one. I don't want to be like parents letting their children drinking milk in the bottle even they are 2 years old and beyond.

Anyway, soothing him to sleep in his own bed was hard for the first night but I would say we did it successfully. I would be thankful for hubby for doing it consistently lastnight. When I got home Johan heard me and wanting me to compromise but instead held him and calm him down. Assuring him that we love him so much. After few minutes he is ready to sleep and slowly put him down in his bed and he sleep good and I got some good sleep too. Hopefully we are going to be successful of doing this.

Metal buildings

I don't know if you guys see on tv some of the unique building built around the country. That include energy efficient houses. One time me and husband family were watching the show about energy efficient building and there are houses that built half in the ground. They can save energy for cooling during summer and heating for winter. This is what my hubby dream for. Anyway, we know that metal buildings is really good when there's tornado especially if this is gonna be underground.
