Shots and a Poser!
Day 59....Well, 2 months are now complete. Only 10 months to go. Today, we had to take Landon to Kaiser for his 6 month appointment. This means shots! Yuck. Landon is now a whopping 15 pounds and 3.4 ounces, 25 inches long, and not quite sure what the head measurement is. Our pediatrician said he was not the biggest guy but was tracking along perfectly. He does have a big head but not huge like Hunter's was at the same age. Landon only cried for about 10 seconds after his shots. This picture of him crying is a first in this project. There was bound to be one. Hunter saw my camera came out and he said "mama, you take my picture." So, he sat on the floor and gave me this face. ADORABLE!!!

Fish Face, Wobble Goggles, and A Sleeping Baby
Day 58...It was a busy day of trying to get things done (still working on it). I am posting these way early because I am leaving shortly for an Oscar Viewing Party at a friend's house. I was trying to get Hunter to do the fish face and this is what he came up with. As for the goggles on his head, they are not any ordinary goggles. They are Imagination Mover Scott wobble goggles. He has not taken them off very often. I took this quick shot of Landon sleeping. He is so peaceful.

Imagination Movers and a Cutie!
Day 57...We took Hunter to his first concert! Yes, his first concert. We took him to see the Imagination Movers at the Nokia Live. It was a really good show. We would totally go again. Of course, we didn't leave there without getting a few souvenirs...wobble goggles, a movers t-shirt (that will be worn as PJs for awhile), and light up glow sticks. Tony and I decided a few months ago that we were going to spend individual time with each of our boys. Today was all about Hunter. We dropped Landon off at my moms. We had a nice lunch at Miguel's and then drove to LA. However, I sadly have one REGRET, Tony (sorry babe I am going to blame this one on you...but I still LOVE you) told me to leave my nice camera at home and take our small one (which I HATE). I was hoping to take better pictures but it just wasn't happening. So, the picture I got isn't the greatest. It will have to do though. I think Hunter was a little confused on where we were at. I think he was trying to figure out why the guys he watches on TV were singing on a stage and why there was a bunch of people around him. He didn't get crazy excited like he does when they come on TV. The experience was priceless though. Just watching him take it all in was fantastic.
Landon...well, what can I say. CUTIE. My mom told me that he is just so good and that we were LUCKY!!! My aunt tried to tell me while I was pregnant that the second one wouldn't be the same. Well, I would totally have to DISAGREE with her. We have the two most calm, loving boys on the planet. They are such happy boys. No fussing. An occasional tantrum from Hunter, remember he is 2.
5. They are both such good natured little guys.

I'll Get Your Boogers!
Day 56...Tonight Tony thought it would be funny to pretend to get Hunter's boogers. So, I watched them go back and forth pretending to get each other's boogers. However, then Tony told him to go get mama's boogers. This is the shot I got of him reaching for my nose. He wasn't even close. The picture was funny though. Landon was in good spirits. It appears that he had a 24 hour stomach flu. There has been no throwing up. Thank goodness. Tomorrow is a big day...we are taking Hunter to see the Imagination Movers at the Nokia Live.

6 months and Trucks
Day 55...Landon is 6 MONTHS today. I can't believe it. Time sure does fly. It has been an incredible and exhausting 6 months. There was a time when I didn't think I was going to be able to exclusively pump and that be enough. Here I am 6 months later with my husband yelling at me (well, not really) because I have a RIDICULOUS amount of breastmilk in the freezer. I do mean ridiculous. I have over 70-6 ounce bottles stored up. CRAZY!!! I thought I was going to have to supplement with formula at one point. I even bought four 24 ounce cans of enfamil formula on ebay, which are still unopened in my pantry. I guess everything has a way of working itself out. However, I will admit that pumping is a pain in the BUTT!!!! I look forward to the day where I don't have to wash a gagillion bottle parts and pump parts everyday. There certainly have been challenges having two kids. However, it is all worth it. Moms always figure out a way to do it ALL. Anyways.
Landon is feeling so much better today. He hasn't thrown up at all. He has managed to keep milk down. I took a picture of him next to the same dog and in the same position on the couch. I just love his little face. Well, actually everything about him I love.
Hunter on the other hand is all about TRUCKS!!! He is sitting on a BIG truck holding two smaller trucks. It was pretty funny.

The Flu and a Tiger
DAY 54...another one bites the DUST...to the FLU that is. Unfortunately, Landon has come down with the flu. I left work early today to pick him up. Kaiser said because he is 6 months old to stop feeding him breastmilk and give him 5 mL of pedialyte every 15 minutes. If he keeps it down continue every 15 minutes for 2 hours and then increase it to 10 mL. If he throws it up wait an hour and try again. So far, he has been able to hold down two 5 mL doses, even though it is NASTY!!! He is in good spirits. I am so lucky that both of my boys are so easy going even when they are not feeling well. Hopefully this will pass quickly. Hunter on the other hand was telling us all the sounds the animals make. In this picture he just happens to be telling us what the tiger says. It is so funny. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS KID! He has such a good personality. Yes, he does have him moments. He is 2.5 years old, he is going to have them. All in all, we are blessed to have two wonderful little boys.

REALLY QUICK!!!
Day 53...Today was CRAZINESS after work. Dinner, nursing/pumping, this 365 project. UHHHH. I am trying. This post is going to be brief because I want to watch the Housewives of Miami. I know what you are thinking...SERIOUSLY!! I can't help it. I am HOOKED!!! I guess since I am drama free for the most part I love to watch other women bicker at each other. It is hilarious. I have no desire to be like them in anyway. It is entertainment. Anyways, back to my boys. Hunter decided to eat some popcorn and a peanut M&M at the same time and this is the gem I am stuck with. A shot of Hunter with his mouth open. Landon was near asleep in his swing. You are getting sleepy!!! Well, gotta run. It is going to be a LONG night. Lots to do!!!
