Girly Girl

I'm not too stressed about Lucy having all pink, frill, and beautiful for her baby gear. In fact, I went through sleepers from Max's baby clothes and have determined that it won't kill her (or me) to sleep in blue, sports themed sleepers.

However, I've been a little sad for her to use Max's car seat. It isn't totally masculine, but it doesn't scream girl either. I wasn't sad enough to drop a couple hundred on a new car seat though. BUT, I found a nice compromise. I looked on etsy.com and found this wonderful shop, SooShabbyChic

Today my order came and I can't WAIT to put this on the carseat, too too too cute!!!

It will protect Lucy from the sun, keep germy hands away from her when we are strolling the mall, and look totally girly in the process!

Wordless Wednesday: Xmas Edition

Random but True...

Max to Mommy:

"My butt is full of surprises!"

Random but true facts from Max.

Monday Morning Blues

Christmas vacation is officially over and Lane has returned to work this morning.

Max is not happy. Lane truly is his best friend and plays with him so much when he doesn't have work. On Monday mornings, Max is generally in a pretty bad mood with me. Mommy just doesn't compare to Daddy.

I've been trying to think of what we could do on Monday's to lessen his disappointment that he is now back with only Mommy as his entertainment.

I've decided Monday is going to be a baking day. Every monday I will bake something and Max will get to help (ie. he will eat the batter, that is usually the extent of his help). He loves when I bake and I love when I have a routine. So, Mondays are now that days that I will officially bake the blues away!

On the baking agenda this morning: Star Wars Cookies!

Sunday Sayings...

From the mouth of Max:

"Don't touch that hanger" -Max to a baby in a store.

"Don't boss her around" - Me to Max

"But, I'm a big brother!" -Max to Me... poor Lucy doesn't have a chance!

Judging by my last post...

There is no one out there that checks regularly. Or you are all like my mom and have yet to figure out how to make a comment!

So, 2011 is starting. WOW! I can't believe 2010 is gone. It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating Max's 3rd birthday and now we will start gearing up for his 4th! Crazy! (We won't mention the birthday I celebrated, I no longer celebrate birthday's I've decided)

My goal for 2011. Blog everyday here. Even if it is just a snippet of life. I have a little mama's guilt over my lack of chronicling Lucy's pregnancy. So, this will solve it. Plus give me a little mini-goal each day.

So, if you are out there... check back more frequently. My plan is to be here. A lot.

Happy New Year!!!
