Our insurance didn't cover a nutrition visit but the nutritionist offered to do it over the phone for free so I accepted!!
I was expected her to tell me to hide more calories in food but the real issue was he wasn't eating much so how could I hide things if he wasn't eaten much to hide things in.
Once I told her our situation, what she said took me by surprise and I was a skeptic but I figured it couldn't hurt to try out her suggestion.
She said don't feed him any snacks. They fill them up more then you think and so do milk and juice
1. Only milk or juice with meals and only give him water in between meals
2. No snacks and give him what you want to make, it's his job to eat if he won't then that's his issue, don't try all sorts of things until he eats something because your in charge of deciding what to serve for dinner. If he is hungry enough he will learn to eat whatever you give him
3. Eat at the table at meals (which I did always for dinner and sometimes lunch and breakfast) and eat with him at the table too
4. Add coconut cream syrup to his milk to give him more calories
So it was really hard when he wouldn't eat meals but she said he will be okay just give it three days.
Let me tell you what!!! He is doing great so far and I've noticed he sleeps better (naps are up and down sometimes) but he is less cranky because he is getting full on good food not snacks and it's more consistent
When he wakes up around 8/830 we have breakfast then an hour or hour and a half later he naps
Around 12 we have lunch and then since dinner isn't until 5 or later I have decided at 3 to give him a small snack and he gets it at the table because 5 hours is a long time to only have water.
Then he gets a snack before bed around 730/800
If he doesn't eat good he knows he doesn't get a snack
But wow it's been amazing and I'm so glad we have solved this issue and hopefully he will gain weight better now. :)
I have a happier toddler and that means a happier mommy!
Every toddler is different of course but this works for us now so sorry if some of you think it's silly not to give him snacks.
This is a website she gave me that has ideas if anyone is interested it's for more then just toddlers

almost 30 weeks w/ #2
I've been slowly getting things ready for Jackson coming because time is flying by really fast and you never know if your baby will come early or not.
I had my glucose test and it came back great so yay! I am a little anemic but that didn't surprise me, but this time I am doing better at taking an iron pill once a day and maybe that will help.
My ring still fits, my belly button isn't poking out yet but it's near the surface. My stretch marks from isaac have stretched all the way out but don't see any new ones yet.
I feel like I stick out more this time around and am a little lower then before.
The doctor says I really need to work on gaining 1 - 1 1/2 lbs a week which is really hard. Even though i'm hungry all the time I really don't care much about food.
Once I hit the 3rd trimester my body has not felt the best. I get cramps and sharp pains here and there which usually goes away once I drink more water and I try never to clean too much or walk too much.
Mostly the thing that is killing me the most this pregnancy is my emotions. Physically i'm pretty darn lucky and don't have any pregnancy symptoms like swollen feet or super chubby or anything like that, except it does make my butt bigger which is not flattering. I sleep pretty well though and i'm a little tired but not terribly and I can still bend and carry things with no back pain.
But my emotions are UP and DOWN and UP and DOWN. One minute i'm super excited and can NOT wait!! Other days I worry so much about surviving with another newborn so soon or will I be able to handle Isaac and Jackson together. But until he comes I have no idea so I try not to stress but I still do.
Isaac and I are going to California, driving down with the in-laws and then flying back after about a week. I'm really excited just to get a change of scenery but i'm always freaking out that Jackson will decide to come early or that Isaac will be really hard to entertain on the plane even though its only about a 2 hr flight. So Prayers would be appreciated for that day.
Then maternity pictures are coming up and I CAN"T WAIT!!! I love pictures and especially from a professional that can make everything look good. I love capturing beautiful moments like maternity pictures and newborn pictures.
It's starting to feel like Fall which is SO exciting, it's my favorite season because I can wear sweaters and go on a walk and not get super hot. But also means Jackson will be coming soon too
Isaac is just the cutest especially when he is in a giggly, smiley, happy mood. I love when he comes and sits on my lap (even though its kind of awkward to sit with a huge bump) and watch TV with me. He is just so silly some days. He is now 15 months old and is still tiny 17.5 lbs which meant time for us to talk with a nutritionist. Which makes me feel like I did bad as a mom but it will be nice to get advice because I knew I would struggle with this since I dont eat very well myself and hate cooking and doing dishes. I think part of him not wanting to eat sometimes is he gets sick of me feeding him kind of the same type of foods.
I wish I wasn't picky at this point in my life.... but we talk with her today and i'm really excited to hear her thoughts.
But other then that Isaac is OBSESSED with technology which is frustrating but the doctor says its normal but we still try to hide our phones and things and try to distract him with outside and other toys. He loves trying to help me cook and he understands this makes this turn on or this room has this in it. He is really connecting things. His newest thing and he tries to clean his ears with a qtip which is adorable (dont worry i wont let it actually go in his ear). He has been napping better which is really nice and I hope it stays this way for a long time. =]
He LOVES the cats even more now and will go to get them treats its really cute. He is starting to run now which is hilarious. And sometimes he will hug his cousins which is super cute and i'm not sure where he learned it and maybe he doesnt even realize that's called a hug but it's awesome.
He jabbers a lot and sometimes on a phone but none are really words yet but it does sound like they are close to real words.
He will be Thing 1 for Halloween and my big belly will be Thing 2 for Jackson. i'm excited!! =]
Oh on a side note we went to the Ogden Temple Open House with all my family (besides mallorie and cache) it was 31 years ago to the day that my parents were sealed there to my brother so that was really awesome. I hate to admit that I wasn't in the best of mood that day but glad that our family has grown from 3 to soon to be 16 people, that's amazing.
I'm sure Isaac will wake up from his nap soon so I better close this, and i'm sure i've forgotten something but it's nice to just type feelings every once in awhile.

Summer 2014
Isaac is about 14 1/2 months old. He is quite the talker except of course none of it makes sense. He does try to copy the sounds of words we say. He can say oh boy pretty good which is super cute!
He has tooth number 5 poked through and 1 or 2 more in the process. He sleeps fairly well at night but we still have bad nights too. We took the pacifier away during naps but after a few weeks I realized his second nap so not long enough so we gave him it back for only his second nap and he now sleeps longer! :)
He now lately won't eat a whole bunch so that's been really frustrating for me because I already worry that I'm not feeding him good enough as a mother.
He LOVES Legos and will bring me the tv remote as if to say okay mom it's tv time lol he is learning how things work by watching daddy and I so that's fun to watch.
He has had a lot of whiny moments lately which have been hard for me.
Being pregnant again I rely SO much on Isaac getting two naps a day which he still desperately needs both by his crankiness. So days when he fights naps can be very hard on me emotionally. Jackson moves around quite a bit but the only pregnancy symptom I really have is being tired most of the time.
A few days ago the sister missionaries asked me to go visit a in active couple with them. So I went and one thing that was said was something I needed to hear. Let me first start off with saying to get through a day I tell myself that God wouldn't of blessed me with two kids so close together unless he knew I could handle it. By saying that I hope it gives me strength but it doesn't always on hard days.
But a sister brought this up and said I actually believe God gives us a little more then we can handle so that we will come to Him for help because we can't get through life without him. BOOM! Basically that was a wake up call that I really hadn't asked much for His help by praying daily or things like that and somedays I really need that help to get through the day.
Let me also add that I am very grateful and blessed to have soon to be two healthy boys but somedays are emotionally very hard for me but I love them both very much.
On a side note I've gotten rid of all my skirts so I'm done with Lularoe which is a big weight off my shoulders at the moment.
It's been great having spencer off school for this summer semester. He's been able to help with Isaac a little more and make our yard even more beautiful! I can't wait for next summer when all our fruit trees are blossoming! Cherry, peach, and apple! And then our bushes of blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries! And grapes! Yummy!
There is only a few items needed for when Jackson comes since we don't really need to buy clothes.
The list is:
Bumbo (I have a tray for one but that's it but don't need until maybe he is 3 months old anyways)
Swing (Isaac didn't care for them so want to test Jackson in one of my moms first before I purchase one)
Pacifiers (advent was my favorite brand but Isaac took pretty much any kind)
Diaper bag (one that's big enough for two sets of cloth diapers and two kids, there is own from this place called 31 that I plan to get but spencer said I should wait tell it gets closer but it's on my list so I don't forget)
Moby wrap would be nice but I do have a few other okay holders so probably won't get one
That's all except for little things for me for the hospital and afterwards
I'm pretty much prepared just need to do a few things. I'm 26 weeks pregnant so I still have time. We are down to double digits left until the due date, that's crazy!
On a side note my mother is getting filled with more grandsons lol
Mallorie my sister in law is due in September with a boy, Cruz
I'm due in November with a due, Jackson
Stephanie my sister is due at the end of January with a boy, Ellis
So that will be 6 grandsons and 1 granddaughter in total on the Nielsen side lol

Baby #2 & A Mother's Love
I am almost 21 weeks pregnant and it is becoming a little more real that were expecting baby #2, I just never knew it was going to happen so soon and so it felt like a dream.
We found out we are expecting another boy, which I kind of had a feeling that would be the case. It took be a little bit to be okay with that because I've always wanted a girl but each day goes by I get more excited about another boy, a friend for Isaac.
His name will be Jackson Steven. Steven is the name of Spencer and my dad so we decided to fit it in to a son's name. I am feeling him move more and more which makes it all a little more real.
It will be fun to see how much he looks like Isaac or doesn't look like Isaac. =] The second baby does go by pretty fast, i'm already halfway through and the last part usually goes by pretty fast. Luckily all has gone pretty well with this pregnancy, he is always moving for ultrasounds and when they check his heartbeat.
I told Isaac's pediatrician that my pregnancies are usually pretty good, I rarely feel pregnant. And he said "You must have one of those bodies made to grow/have babies" It may sound like a weird comment but it actually made me feel pretty good because I usually get down on myself a lot when i'm pregnant. That i'm not eating really good or drinking enough water and worry i'm not doing enough for my babies so that comment just made me feel good.
Isaac is 13 months old and just growing and learning things like crazy. Which brings me to the other part of my title. A mother's love.
It's SO powerful! A mother's love for her child is like nothing you've ever felt before. I'm sure it feels that way for most new mom's. Isaac is a blessing, he is the best son I could of ever asked for. We've had a lot of rough patches especially for the first 8 months or so. Learning each other and getting enough sleep. Getting enough sleep sure helps when raising a child. Isaac is amazing and there are days I just look at him and want to Squeeze him and kiss him all over! The smiles he gives me and now occasionally he will give kisses and wrap his arms around my neck like a hug. And he will sometimes put his hand on my shoulder or arm and it's the sweetest thing! He is sleeping much better which really helps us both. And he just laughs and plays so well and he is going to be a great big brother. He makes me so proud!
There are times I can't believe i'm already a mother to a boy and soon to be two boys but they are my life. I'm not much for working at jobs and i'm not the best at being a stay at home mom but I can do that better then anything else. And we learn and grow together. It's always great to take a break from your children but you always want to come back to them. And when they get so excited to see you it just melts your heart all over again.
I couldn't of asked for a better husband, he helps me with Isaac and is supportive and is amazing at his job but is a great father to Isaac. Isaac adores him!
On a side note I am quitting Lularoe, it's taking awhile to actually get rid of my product but hopefully i will at least break even or make a little off of it all. It was a good experience but not something I want to be doing right now or probably ever again. It's just too much. And we are slowly getting the house prepared for baby #2, don't plan on buying any clothes for him but there are a few big products we need to invest in.

1 year old!!
12 months
He's going to be a big brother come mid November even though he has no idea what that means lol
He figured out crawling under the gate so we lowered it
He loves putting lids on bottles and all sorts of things
He has slept a few nights without waking up
We started real milk but do some formula at night
He doesn't sit still very long anymore...sigh
He loves pushing cars/trains around the floor it's so cute to watch
He now throws tantrums when he can't have what he wants
He has kind of taken a few little bitty steps but not walking yet...he is a walker now!!
He has learned to take off some pen lids and other lids
We only let pacifiers be used for nap/bedtime and church we try only to let him have his blankie at those times too but that one we let slip occasionally
He now has 4 teeth 2 top ones now
He can now clap!
He can drink out of a straw!! So I got him so sippy cups with straws :)
He sometimes will just giggle to himself
He also gets frustrated easily so I sometimes have to take things away so he will direct his attention to something else
He just has the sweetest face and cutest smile!
You can tell he is understanding the world better
He seems to be a little picky when it comes to eating which Is frustrating but I'm bad at introducing other foods to him.
He loves taking off my sunglasses and putting them back on my face(with my help of course)
He makes a clicking sound to the cats like we do. It's cute!
Went to the zoo for the first time
Has a little eczema
Lularoe is still not taking off for me yet. This month is very dead no parties booked so we will see what's up.
As I said at the top we are expecting baby #2, it was sooner then we planned but God apparently had other plans for us in mind and we are fine with that.
We are excited. Due about November 19th and probably first week in July we will know the gender. Now I would like a girl to have one of each but I would love the baby no matter the gender!
We got a beautiful comfy rocking chair for cheap I love it!
I still don't have like huge cravings. I kind of have been liking frozen raspberries and sour candies I've been nauseas a lot because it's hard to eat food when you don't like food when pregnant. I haven't gotten sick much at all so we will see.

11 months old
11 months
Isaac can put lids on cans (not always seal them but put them on top)
He climbs up almost everything ahh
He decided to climb/fall out of the bath tub. He was fine there was just a cat litter incident lol
He loves!!! Helping daddy outside with planting plants or cleaning up the yard.
He pushes lots of different things around the floor with his butt in the air
He loves playing inside the refrigerator
He hasn't been sleeping good at night again... Maybe his teeth?!?
He eats pretty much anything
Lately he loves just playing with a small toy while sitting on my lap :)
He loves playing with this little basketball I found, it will roll away and he chases it
Also loves balloons too
He knows how to open the ottoman now so I'm going to have to put new things in it lol
Basically he gets in trouble a lot lol
He can stand up with out furniture every once in awhile
He got into the cat poop once
Smashes his fingers in drawers he can open
He sure is growing up but he is also still a little baby sometimes
Lularoe is awesome but I have no drive right now and because all the parties I have haven't been amazing it just adds to the damper mood. I know sometimes it takes time and I need to put forth more effort but life gets crazy sometimes. That's why I knew I wouldn't be good at staying with my job plus being a stay at home mom.

He pushes lots of different things around the floor with his butt in the air
He loves playing inside the refrigerator
He hasn't been sleeping good at night again... Maybe his teeth?!?
He eats pretty much anything
Lately he loves just playing with a small toy while sitting on my lap :)
He loves playing with this little basketball I found, it will roll away and he chases it
Also loves balloons too
He knows how to open the ottoman now so I'm going to have to put new things in it lol
Basically he gets in trouble a lot lol
He can stand up with out furniture every once in awhile
He got into the cat poop once
Smashes his fingers in drawers he can open
He sure is growing up but he is also still a little baby sometimes
Lularoe is awesome but I have no drive right now and because all the parties I have haven't been amazing it just adds to the damper mood. I know sometimes it takes time and I need to put forth more effort but life gets crazy sometimes. That's why I knew I wouldn't be good at staying with my job plus being a stay at home mom.

Ten months
Ten months
He weighs around 16 lbs and 26 1/2 inches now in a size 3 disposable diaper.
He got his first full blown cold... When we did so we lost a lot of sleep.
He tries to climb up on everything
He shakes his head
He will randomly just smile/squint his face which is hilarious
He will reach out his hand if he wants more of something
He now has Cheerios and kixs for snacks
He is adorable as always but defiantly a trouble maker
He is able to open a few cupboard doors now and lift the toilet lid up and down.
Still doesn't sleep through the night maybe on a rare occasion he might
We go on walks at least 3 times a week
Still only has 2 teeth but is eating a little bit more solids. He still doesn't eat as much milk as I think he should but is drinking water too so he won't get dehydrated
He got a big boy car seat! I was going to weight until he got closer to the weight limit but his height was getting their faster. It's huge! But I love it and I think Isaac does too (don't worry it's still rear facing and I plan to keep it that way until he is 2)
The only thing I don't like is there is no shield from the sun but I bought him sunglasses I hope he keeps on and we will eventually get a window shield thing too
He waves hi
He shuts doors
He makes all sorts of new sounds an copies us sometimes
He is a wild child
He is finally sleeping a little better depends on the night
I'm now 23 years old, seems crazy how times passes fast
I am now a lularoe independent consultant! Which is super exciting and so cool. It's a really great team of girls to work with but it is a lot of work and I'm having a few doubtful moments. I'm really hoping I can do this but it's really easy to get down on yourself. I really want to step out into something new and give it my all but other times I think I probably shouldn't of taken the risk.
Prayers are needed.
So March I got two colds so OVER them but they love lingering and in the middle of the night when I wake up my throat feels tight and sore, annoying
I'm finally a little better from the stinkin colds and so is Isaac so we can rest our bodies now.
