Ten on Tuesday



1. A bowl of cereal is ok to eat for 3 meals during the day.. right? Because today was one of those stay in your pjs all day and eat cereal.
2. On that note, why yes, I did stay in my pjs... all.day.long.
3. I'm a Gleek =)
4. I am convinced that Gunnar had a growth spurt a few nights ago. One night he fits in his 6 month pjs and then next he didn't. I can't believe he's actually wearing 6-9 month clothes (well, pjs only) now! My little boy is getting so big =(
5. So I'll regret this later, but we're* working very hard on getting Gunnar to crawl. He finally has no problems staying on his belly for any length of time so it makes working on it easier. He's still got a while to go, but now we're encouraging it lol.
6. My realization of the day: If you want something badly enough, no matter how hard you try, you won't be satisfied with giving up because it will always be on your mind.
7. My blackberry's trackball doesn't stay in anymore. In fact, the outer ring is no where to be found so when I use BB, I have to hold the trackball in so it doesn't get lost. Fun stuff, huh?
8. Baby boy is sick with a cold. Luckily it's not affecting him much at all. He's still as happy as can be, has a healthy (ok.. ravenous) appetite, and is sleeping through the night with no problems. But, prayers that this passes soon would be lovely =) I hate hearing him cough
9. Oh yeah, speaking of sleeping babies... mine sleeps through the night now! Heck YES!!!
10. I need a new charger for my camera... it's been MIA for a good month now and I feel utterly lost without it! I can't even take pictures of my beautiful blue eyed boy =(

*by we I mean me and my in-laws

Not Me! Monday

 Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.




After working so diligently the past couple weeks on letting Gunnar CIO so he would sleep through the night, I most definitely did not give in and feed him after him screaming for 2 hours... nope, not me. I have more self control than that.

I've mentioned that I won't give juice to Gunnar until he's at least a year old, right? Because that's what I've always said. So there's no way that I would ever give him a bottle filled 1 oz juice and 2 oz water... even if he is sick. No way.

and lastly....

I certainly would never dress my child is pants that are too short for him. Why on earth would I do such a thing when he has a plethora of pants that fit him just fine. Nope, my child is always* in clothes that properly fit him....

*(and by always I mean most of the time.. because let's face it, some clothes are just too cute)

Up & Running!

Like I said, it's Sunday night and my "new" blog is up and running! Take a moment to click through the links at the top and any links that are under those. Not every section is complete, as there are quite a few sections I have to do. The R&R (rave and review) section will not have any posts about items I currently have or have had in the past, but about any purchases I will be making now and in the future so keep a look out for those.

New posts are arriving soon!

Changes & a New Look to come!

I'm currently in the process of making some alterations on here. My life is going through a lot changes right now and I figured my blog should reflect that. With that, I hope to be on here blogging more and about different things. Keep a look out because I *should* have it all completed by the end of the weekend!
