A few cute things... (I Sew-wanna)
I just can't help it there are so many cute things out there for baby and so many great ideas... Here are just a few I've come across recently, ps I love free stuff, just sayin'.
Chilly Room = Crying Baby +/= No Sleep for Moms
So... Northern VA usually has a long fall, but all of a sudden it's instant winter here. The weather has gotten colder and baby wasn't sleeping -- maybe he was cold?
Someone said to me, 'he's a summer baby, he doesn't know what cold is yet'. Duh! Maybe, just maybe with the changing seasons he's gotten colder and the temp in the house has slightly changed. Maybe that's why he's not sleeping as well? So last night we busted out the long sleeve fleece zip-up sleepy sac from Carters and baby slept through the night. Woohoo! Well, woke at 1:30am but then went back down until 7am. Success!

Sicky
So little Sean has a cold, a little one. He has been fussy since this weekend and it hasn't stopped turning into the sniffles and a tiny little random cough. It's so sad he looks up at me like 'Mom what is going on?'. So sad but so cute I just wanna run home and cuddle him. We've been trying Little Noses spray and Baby Tylenol but so far not much has changed. A good warm bath may be in order for tonight.
He's officially out of his little baby socks, his feet are huge! I'm on the hunt for ones that stay on. Any suggestions?
A few more milestones for Sean... he's trying to hold things with BOTH hands (woohoo) he can't quite make a full rollover yet, but we're almost there. Has begun to pull his head up when we lift him--its a big one, he blows bubbles that sound like words. :) He is mezermized by leaves. Whenever we take him outside he just stares up at the trees in complete amazement, its' adorable I need to get a pic of this. His little eyes are so sensitive to light its unreal. The minute you go outside he squints and the second sun hits his face he fusses a little and closes his eyes. If there is light coming into his room he literally covers his face with his arm, if he's trying to sleep. It's too cute. Over the past two weeks he's started to giggle--you tickle his sides and he giggles its precious. Before he was looking up at us like 'what is going on here?', now we're getting giggles its great. Last night Mehmet and Lisa came by with little Olivia, she's so big now. She loves Sean and apparently at home calls herself Nikki while pushing around her teddy called "Sean". I love it!

Moment of Zen
You know that commercial for Ikea where the crazy lady thinks she's getting such an amazing deal and tells her husband to 'step on it' b/c she thinks she must be stealing?
Well, it happened to me.
I mentioned this coupon last week, little did I know it would provide me with a moment of Zen. It's one of those coupons that pops out when you get your receipt. 'Buy one get one free' on Enfamil premium cans. Well, I went in thinking it would only work on the small ones, but guess what -- it works on the large $25 jumbo cans!
So there I was running out of the Giant with 2 large $25 cans of Enfamil Premium, one of them FREE baby! I tried to share my excitement with my husband, who like many of you has become increasingly cautious with funds now that we're with baby, lets just say all I got a "that's great hon, is that why you called?"
