That's right, Mr. Noah has his 2nd tooth. It's the bottom one in front on his left side. He's definitely a little snaggletooth now!!! We are still working with him on bye-bye and clapping but he mostly just stares at us. I did get him to stand up on his own for about 10 seconds, but then plop, down he went. We've been having some daycare sleep issues which I may have mentioned before. Basically, he can't sleep very well there. At home, he will take 2-3 hour naps. At daycare, only about 1 hour. Hopefully when he gets transitioned to the walker room, there will be more "quiet" naptimes and he will be able to get more sleep there. Oh and on Wednesday night, he will be in the Christmas play at school. Not sure how big of a part he will have, but I'm excited for him nonetheless.
Now onto a little bit of news about me. I've decided that I want another baby. I actually decided this quite a while ago but I've realized that I want this 2nd baby sooner than later. Sadly there are many obstacles to this goal. First, I'm still nursing Noah. I've done a lot of research on this and really now that he on solid foods and goes all night without nursing, I should have my cycles back by now, but I'm pretty sure it's the PCOS again. So, I do want to go back to my doctor for help, but before that, I'm going to try to do some things on my own. First, I'm going to try and lose some weight and be healthier. Since I'm insulin resistant, that makes it very difficult for me. Basically I will need to follow a low GI diet, similar to diabetics. I also need to start working out more often. If this works and I can actually lose weight, it may help several of my PCOS symptoms, mainly the fertility, though. If I can get my cycles back all on my own, I may not even need the doctor. BUT, our plan is to wean Noah at 12 months to a sippy cup of cow's milk during the day and just nurse nights and weekends, if he's still ok with that. Then either in Feb or I may wait until after busy season or even closer to my 1 year appointment in June, I will start talking to my doctor about my possibilities and whether I can start fertility treatments again. Hopefully my cycles will just return on their own with the weight loss and I can get pregnant all on my own (wouldn't that just be amazing).
Ok, well that's enough for now. I'll try and get some pictures at the play on Wed night.

I hope this goes well for you. We've just decided to come off the pill and start trying in the next month or so. My RE told me I needed to lose 10lbs to help with my PCOS and getting my cycles back naturally. I wish you guys all the luck in the world, and I hope this road is easier for you. Let me know if you want to 'swap ideas' on eating healthier, etc. I know I'm always looking for ways to keep it interesting. :)
