Julie, I LOVE The one where she is in the cow outfit. TOO CUTE!

So my stepmom got this really loud(ok not so loud, but musical) toy for Madi and its UBER annoying! Its this mailbox from fisher price maybe?? AHHH!! STOP THE MADNESS!!! She won't leave it alone either because she doesn't have many noisy toys..so this is just bliss to her apparently.

Sara~ Noisy toys~ this is how I used them for years. Put it on top of the fridge or up and hidden somewhere, when you need to buy yourself a few more minutes bring it down, you can usually get 5 or 10 minutes to finish your task or at least get to a stopping place.

Julie~ I love those pics!

That's a really good idea Crissi. DH said it was going to be just a shelf ornament. But I also feel bad taking it away from her, she loves it already. But its not like she'll be horribly upset about it for long.

Ladies...... Grace is driving me bonkers! Yesterday she skipped her morning nap and was screaming cranky all day. I got her to sleep not even two hours in the afternoon.
Now today: same deal. She's refusing to take her morning nap, but she is exhausted and cranky beyond belief. I don't know what to do! AHHH!

Happy birthday to my Natalie!! She is finally one!

I know, I know...I'm SO behind on chatting with everyone. Between work, home, and trying to get my Hyena Cart store up and running I'm NEVER on DS anymore (except to sell).

Anyway I wanted to let you mamas know that my HC store opens on August 17th (Em's b-day). Search for Just Hatched & Attached, and you'll find me! All my Aug mamas are getting a special code for 15% discount. Use the code "DSAUGMAMA" and get 15% off!

I'll try to get back on later to chat, but we'll see!

LOVE all the b-day pics!

Julie I love the pictures! Especially the one of her hitting the pinata! My DD wants one at her and Aiden's party and I wasn't sure about getting one that they hit. But that was such a cute picture - maybe I'll go for it

Aiden is driving me crazy! He is into everything and is throwing huge fits. I need a break LOL! But he has been doing some pretty cute stuff lately too that makes up for it. He has figured out how to nod his head for "yes". He does it is slow motion! Now when ever I ask him something he can answer! I asked him if he was hungry at dinner time and he starts sticking his tongue in and out (his sign for eat) and then slowly nods his head for yes. He first did this when we were at a restaurant. We were giving him some different foods and he would point to the one he wanted (like pasta) while saying "uh! uh! uh!" and start signing more. Then I would ask him if he wanted more pasta. He would then get quite and all serious and nod very slowly. It was hilarious!

Last night my DH and I went to the circus! I don't think we haven't been out by ourselves since before Aiden was born! We got a voucher for two free tickets and decided last minute to go. My parents came by to watch the kids and they said that Aiden did great! My mom gave him a cup with EBM and he drank some of it and then he pushed the cup away so my mom laid him in his bed and he went to sleep. No fuss! Now I'm thinking that my DH and I can possibly get out more!

Carolyn- that is cool that you had a date night, so did we! My In laws are still here and they babysat. We went out to dinner and went and saw a movie. We saw The Other Guys, Mark Walberg is super yummy...Will Ferrel was funny.

[me_just_me]

Mae that is great that you and your DH got out too! That is one good thing about having your In-Laws stay with you for a while! LOL!

I haven't been to a movie in SOOOOOOO long. DH and I will have to go now that I know that Aiden will let someone other than me put him to bed!
