Lol yeah I have issues.

I pulled the 'I'm here with three little kids by myself do we're not pausing for pics today' card. Fail. I did get a few though and I would LOVE to share them.

Only group shot, when we walked in. Dd had already pulled out her ponies.

Dominic and the giraffe. This giraffe loved him. We must've stood her for 30 minutes bonding

Nathan and the giraffe while it was having its lunch

Where Nathan ended up after taking a fall and getting a hurt knee (thank you bb2 for being SO comfy!!)

Dd napped in the stroller at least half the outing which was nice Ill admit!) thanks for letting me share!

Great pics everyone

Britt--Harper is so big and your family is so cute!

Naomi--LOVE the pics so adorable. You guys look like such a happy fun family!

Hallie--Love it! I messed up Peyton's cupcakes (yeah I know CUPCAKES) Love that you did a girafe.

So we had a great week.

MIL visited from NY. The kids had a blast and were so excited. She went crazy shopping for the kids. I don't mind when she visits and does that. It was more of a problem when we lived close by bc well it was always so much stuff. I can handle it when it is a week though--even though she mails things all the time. I can get more of a handle on it that way. She is a bit of a shopaholic and we are trying to minimilize as much as we can with 3 children and 4 dogs lol! I am glad she came we had a great time!

We tried gymnastics class with Tanner last week. He was so excited. He kept saying "we going to Olympics?"

When we got there he said, "this is the Olympics, YEAH!"

We went inside and he was in LOVE. he wanted to do everything and was so excited--UNTIL they started the class. Then the Tanner switch went off. And he folded his arms and said "NO"

We did not do it and went home after a major meltdown. DH talked to him and here is the convo

DS "I no want to do gymnastics"
DH "You don't like gymnastics?"
DS "No I like gymnastics"
DH "You don't like your teacher?"
DS "No I like my teacher"
DH "What is it then?
DS "The girls"
DH "You don't like girls?"
DS "No I like girls I just don't want to do sports with them."

I got a kick out of that one. To his defense he was the only boy there and he was not happy about that. So I may look into a gymnastics place that has a boys class. I know it sounds silly but my son has been doing flips off the coach for months now! I need him to be able to have a place to do that!

I'm so excited!! I found a pink/chocolate BOB revolution on my local cl in great condition for $90! It's two years old but I don't care about that. I can't get it until the 25th but I'm so excited so I had to share! After the zoo trip I realized a lone Mac isn't going to cut it as my one and only stroller. I'll keep it for errands and indoor things but the BOB will be awesome for long outings and day trips to parks.

Okay I'm done.

I am so jealous!!!! I have been searching for a single BOB on CL but can not find any and the ones I do find they are trying to sell for more than what I can get new

No kidding. Around here I was SHOCKED to find one. The only jogger anyone has here is whatever is the cheapest at Walmart or at the nearest garage sale. I had a baby trend one a while ago and didn't care for it (felt flimsy) so I've been on the hunt! I will ask but won't be surprised if they're Missouri transplants like us. I've seriously never seen a Bob here lol.

Whoa! Awesome find! I have a double BOB ironman, love it, I wish it had a swivel wheel option but I still adore it.

Omg dd is going through a massive nursing phase. She cut a top tooth last night (her second!) and I swear she's been nursing 10-12 times a day for the last week. Anyone else's lo still nursing this frequently or go thru phases like this still? My youngest DS nursed until two but he onIy nursed 4x a day from 3 months on.

dagmomma · 08-13-2012, 02:20 PM

Peyton is still nursing and some days more than others. She is getting teeth too. She had none and now it seems they are all coming in at once.

She seems very tired also so she is nursing sleeping teething.
