Happy Halloween!!

Finally, it’s here!! The day I’ve been waiting for for a short while now: Halloween!

I am all ready to go: I have Aidan’s outfit and I have the trick-or-treaters goodies all bagged up! I wasn’t sure if I was going to dress up, but I didn’t buy an outfit. I’m sure I still have some [...]

Lift!…and pull!

Today Aidan and I went and played on his rug – as usual – and I decided that it was time for him to start learning/practicing how to pull himself up.
I put him in his crib and he immediately started doing it as if he’s done it for a while now. Hmmm…..maybe when I think [...]

Today I was the minority.

What a hectic day!!! Ahhh!
I just got home about 45 minutes ago. This is the first time I’ve gotten online.
I had to get the Mowery’s photos sorted out since they ordered for 3 families. That took a little while. Then I prepared to take Aidan to get his shots.
I made the appointment at [...]

TIP #1 for mommas!

Since I have decided that “mommy knows best”, I’ve adapted to a new way of taking care of business. Some might say it’s old fashioned. I mean really….what did people do back in the olden days with babies and taking care of business??
If your little one has plush toys or anything felt, and one day it [...]

Sleep….what’s that?

I knew that having a baby would alter my sleep pattern. In fact, it has deprived me of sleep sometimes. I accept that.
Last night I ventured over to verybestbaby.com to fill in Aidan’s growth chart. I also read up on his developments.
According to their site, he is “probably getting around 12 hours of sleep a night.”
Um, [...]

Ureka!!

OK….so I went to Chattanooga today to get some pics printed up and I had fed Aidan before we left. About 20 minutes before they were done, he pooped. I sat down to change him (I’ll change him wherever I feel like it!!!) and discovered I had left the diaper bag in the car. Dammit!!
About [...]

It’s a late night

We just got back from my parents-in-law’s house. It’s now 11:51pm and I’m tired, but getting Aidan out of his car seat always guarantees to rouse him to wake, so he’s in his bouncer. I’m trying to get him to wear hisself out so I’m not doing all the work!!
What can I say?? I’m tired [...]

2nd grader suspended???

I have an RSS feed from MSNBC on my desktop and noticed a title that stunned me.
A second grade kid was suspended from school for drawing a stick figure shooting a gun. Now why did they feel the need to suspend him?? I just wonder if they attempted to have the guidance counselor talk to [...]
