Jamie Your site looks great as always - where do you find the time? I have been so busy lately with the kids, x mas and my jewlery I can barely find time to update let alone clean :) Ahh time really flies! Our kids are all growing up so fast. The girls look like twins I wasn't even gonna try n guess that one. I get confused looking @ pics of them now - except Tylie of course LOL Thanks so much for the cute lil pics of my kids- I love them as you can see. It did take me forever to update but I really like them, thanks And Happy Birthday to your better half :) So how happy are you to be away from the snow in Ill? I'm loving this weather down here :) Last week it was 81 I'm just thinking of all the snow I shoveled the last 2 yrs in NY while I was preggo and right after her and Donny was gone a majority of both winters. Thank God for southern heat !!! Merry Christmas and enjoy your family time:) -Liz Dec 19 2007
Stopping by to say hi! Happy holidays! -Jenni/babyw Dec 18 2007
Hi Jamie! Just dropping by to say hi and let you know I am so happy for you and your family that you will all be together this Christmas. Happy, Happy Birthday to Rick. I'm sure the best birthday present he could get is just to be able to be home and spend time with his family and loved ones. I LOVE all your holiday pics with the kids. You guys take such great pics...how on earth do you get them to all look at the camera at the same time? All the kiddos are growing so much and are all just as cute as can be. Enjoy the holiday season and create beautiful memories to share with all us bhper's. Love, hugs and kisses to you all from your friends in Atlanta.
P.S./I almost forgot. I was reading a while back and meant to write you...another one of those things that slipped my mind. I have a suggestion for your diaper rash problem and when you move to Mississippi, everyone there knows what it is. You have to promise not to laugh...but it's supposed to be great for diaper rash...Boudreaux's Butt Paste! lol
Okay, stop laughing and go read about it...http://www.buttpaste.com/. The guy that invented it was even on Oprah - http://www.oprah.com/tows/slide/200402/20040225/tows_slide_20040225_11.jhtml.

Girl, I can't believe all the things you get accomplished! You've done more backgrounds this Christmas then i've ever had on Koa's website! You're amazing....you are talented, I love them! And I have to say, this is my favorite one yet! I loooove the picture of the kids with Santa, nobody's crying, and they're all so perfect together! So wonderful! Will keep checking in, take care Wards!

I am cracking up at the Picture of the Day, with Arlee and her finger...almost up her nose! LOL...that is hysterical. Love the picture with Santa too...
Much Love -Michelle (bhp.net/aultman) Dec 13 2007
Jaime,
The picture of the 3 girls is crazy. They look like they could be triplets. I can't wait to find out who is who! Hope you are enjoying your christmas time. Rick will be home in just a few more days. I should go by pretty quickly. Before you know it; it will be christmas morning and you will have your "Love of 7" all together.

Hello! I was just stopping by to say hi and I was reading about your lil tylie's diaper rash, I know that it is an old post but, my momma (there are four of us kids aged 13 me,4,2 and 9months) found that lansinoh (http://www.lansinoh.com/) works really well for that kinda thing even though it is not ment for a diaper rash it clears it up really well. Although we don't currently have a BHP i have family that does, and I am currently tyring to get my momma to give me the o.k. to open one for us... it is a work in progress. :-p -Linda Maxwell Dec 12 2007
Wow, I can't believe little Tylie is such a great sleeper. She is being so good to her Mommy:-)
Ok, so I think we have decided on a name. I will probably update the website tonight. I love it...and Derek loves it...so that is all that matters...
Oh, and if it was a girl, her name would have been Dana Reed. Reed is a Family name. And I just fell in love with the name Dana...But there will be no Dana Reed Aultman...since we have a little BOY!:-) AND this is our last child, 100%. -Michelle (bhp.net/aultman) Dec 10 2007
Happy Holidays from my family of 5 to yours of 7 -Tabitha (kendallrayanna) Dec 09 2007
Love watching your family grow. You do an amazing job on your site. I barely have time to get one Christmas theme up on ours and you are on your third or fourth. LOL The letter to your hubby is priceless. That's true love!
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
-Lisa Long ~ bhp/ethanandjacob Dec 08 2007
Your site is aborable & also your family. I hope you have a merry Christmas...

Jamie Jamie Jamie... are you trying to jinx me?? Everyone keeps asking me if we are having more. Why??? I know I gained back alot of weight but man everyone keeps emailing me if we're having another. LOL Well umm I won't say we are done forever but for right now we are. I really really really LOVE being prego and miss it so much and I really want a baby but ahhh it is so hard giving the 4 we already have enough attention I don't want to leave anyone out. Besides we are currently on the 5 yr plan LOL Right now we are content with or lil family of 6. These boys keep me on my toes and just when I think it's safe here comes La ~ La :) Know what I mean?? or are you just that good that you want to add more to your pack? LOL For some reason 5 seems like so much more than 4 How big of an adjustment is it? And what was your biggest adjustment?? Mine was going from 2 to 3 kids. Half the time I'm still trying to get used to the 4 I got LOL Oh well all in all the answer is no not right now :) For this month at least. Are you guys done??
-Liz Flores Dec 06 2007
That was the sweetest thing I think I have ever read! You are so blessed! Thank you for sharing...
Love the gingerbread cookie pictures...
Oh, and did you make your guess?...pink or blue? We were able to find out. I will update Avery's website tonight after she goes to bed:-)... -Michelle (bhp.net/aultman) Dec 06 2007
Jamie
Your letter to Rick is so beautiful. I love the Santa letter -thanks for telling us you're a sneak though- I can barely keep up with my two and here you are with 5 and writing Poetry. God I thought I had lost it.-lol.
New pics of Tylie please. I can't believe she is already a month old. Tell her and Aryanne to stop growing.
Love to all- counting down with you till Rick gets home. -Rondha and the gang/bhp/ahrenjudekarransingh Dec 05 2007
Jamie,
You are such a wonderful Mammy. I don't know where you find the time for anything. The kids look great and I just loved those stockings and the cookies. I got to do that with my little ones.
Lots of love, -Liz Elizondo /BHP/evelynethan Dec 05 2007
Jamie, Your Santa letter had me laughing so hard and completely agreeing with everything you said...and I only have ONE! You should also ask for a cape with a big SUPER MOM on it! -Dawn - bhp/gracekatherine Dec 04 2007
I love your Santa letter, I so wish I was as creative as you.
Take care
love Emerald -The Trevino Four Dec 03 2007
I can never pump more than a couple of ounces, but I always have a great supply (I guess the baby is a lot better at getting it out than I am). Anyway, oatmeal is supposed to work wonders, which I can attest to since I eat it every day & am always busting full of milk (just can't get much out when I pump).
The pictures are great! Thanks for leaving me the wonderful birthday comment!!!! -love,crystal Dec 01 2007
***So. Cal Playdate/ Wards' Going Away Party***
Hey there Jamie, I am trying to put together the "Going Away Party" for you. I was thinking... What about Hullabaloos (It's just like Pump it Up) in Orange? I have 15 of free passes for us all to use there because I got them for my Mom's Club. They have free-play time from 10:30AM - 1:00PM every Monday and Tuesday morning. How about Dec. 17th or 18th or Jan. 7th or 8th?? Let me know what you think. E-mail me @ julietorresluna@sbcglobal.net to let my know what works best for you. All BHP families welcome. Let me know what you all think. ~Julie Torresluna -bhp/thetorreslunafamily Nov 30 2007
Hey girl! You know, I didn't even think about us being able to find out the sex of the baby next week until you left your comment:-) But I guess it is possible. I will be 2 days shy of 17 weeks then and they said they would be able to tell at 18 weeks. I am getting the u/s done to measure my cervix, but surely while there looking, if they see pieces or parts they would tell us:-) Atleast I hope so...now I am extremely anxious. So you better go make your prediction on my expectnet, just in case we do know next week. OMG...now I can't wait.
And thanks for the advice. Derek and I have prayed on it and God has told us that he will protect us all. So we are 99% sure we are going to decline the medicine, unless the Dr. can do a really good job at convincing me otherwise.
Take care...and can't wait to hear if Rick is going to be home for Christmas. I know you are probably super anxious.
Much Love -Michelle (bhp.net/aultman) Nov 30 2007
Just checkin in!! Hope all is going well!! -Katie Meester Nov 29 2007
Jamie, This may sound too awful to try it, but if you really want your milk supply back- pump about 10 minutes on the hour, every hour, for 36 hours (even through the night) to trick your body into thinking that you have a very hungry baby. Your body will produce as much as your baby is demanding. If you make your body think that Ty is demanding to be fed every hour, you will begin producing more. This was the suggestion of the lactation consultant at Kaiser. It won't be fun- but it's worth it! I nursed all three babies for 9 -12 months and I had to do that once when Emma was about 6 weeks old (right when she started to skip her middle of the night feeding. It was torture, but I got my milk poduction back and nursed her for 8 more months after that. All these women leaving you all this advice, something has to work! Good luck. I love breast feeding. I hope you will be able to continue- especially since Tylie is your last baby. -With love, Julie Torresluna Nov 28 2007
Hi Jamie, try taking Fenugreek, an herbal supplement that my lactation consultant recommended with my first child, it worked great at increasing my milk supply.
/johnandmelissa -Melissa Nov 28 2007
Hey! So, I had the same thing happen to me with the low supply. I never got it back up...but that was due to not feeling comfortable pumping at work. Anyhoo...my mid-wife friend told me to drink Mother's Milk Tea. It tasted pretty good and did help a little. I just wound up not taking the time to pump as much. You can find the tea in any grocery store or vitamin store.
Hope it works for you...
Much Love -Michelle (bhp.net/aultman) Nov 27 2007
Hi Jamie, I love the new look of your website. I'm so excited for the Holiday season, it's my favorite time of year. Tylie is growing so fast, I love those pictures of the 3 little ones together. So cute!!! I wish I could help with the breastfeeding. I never had a problem with it, but from what I know. Drinking TONS of water is great for milk producing. I would drink 4 - 16oz. glasses of water a day and I nursed both of my girls for 13 months. Good Luck and I hope you find a solution.
Happy Holidays!
Love, Melissa -bhp/tzetzosfamily Nov 27 2007
Oh Jamie, I feel for you on the pumping. I couldn't pump for some reason either. I did good to get 1/2 oz. once a day. But I could nurse like it was going outta style. I have nursed all three of my babies up to 6 and 9 months with no problems. The only problem was with pumping and I never could find an answer on why nursing was just great but pumping got nothing!!! So if you figure that out, you'll have to let me know as I would like the option of pumping and not just stictly nursing #4!
Ooooh, the Christmas pictures turned out so good! And that Tylie is growing like a weed!
Have a great Christmas Holiday!
Stacey -BHP/winsteads Nov 27 2007
