January 15 - Playtex For the Win!

Our little Jillian started with my friend Rachel this month and I was very worried about her eating. She was exclusively breastfed and I was unable to pump much so we tried many different bottles with formula..to no avail. Then we bought the Playtex bottles and lo and behold-she loved them. No issues whatsoever. Yahoo!! I'm able to pump now when she's with Rachel so she drinks 1-2 formula bottles and 1 bm bottle during the days. Ytay!

Julia started diving this month with the Bay Area Stars Diving team. She's on the Bronze team which means practice twice a week and meets are optional. If she moves to the next level, she'll be required to do meets and attend dry land training, and I'll have to join the booster. So far she's been to 3 practices she "it's her favorite sport EVER!" They are working on approaches and line-ups. She's doing it with her friend Jill (from Orcas) and they are having a blast. Coach Sven, the head coach, is really passionate about the sport and makes it super fun for the kids. The only downside with diving is that one of the practices is at 6pm on Wednesday. The facility (which is gorgeous) is 13 miles away. "Thirteen miles, that's not that far Christine!" If you are thinking that, you are right. It isn't that far. But with our lovely Houston traffic it takes a solid hour to get there. Practice is an hour and then by the time Julia showers we get home at 8pm. So we leave at 5pm and get home at 8pm. It's a long time but she loves it and I love watching it, so it works! 

She's all legs!

I could watch her practicing all day, I love that she's having fun!
