I've had ENOUGH!!

So I went to walmart twice today! It feels like I've been to walmart everyday since noel has been born. Living 2 1/2 minutes away from walmart has made me way to dependent, any time I need anything i just jump in the car and there I am! It seems so convenient but then I have to go to the baby isle to see if there is anything new, and before you know it I've been there an hour! It happens every time. I'm so sick of wasting my days there, I have so much to do and it has been the opposite of convenient, let alone a drain on my check book. So I've decided to go to walmart only once a week, I think wednesday. I'm just going to keep a list of what I need when I think of it. Not only will it save time but I think it will help me save money because it gives me time to deliberate on if I really need it or not! Why did I not think of this earlier. Anyway I will tell you how it goes and if I can stick to my guns until next wednesday. Wish me LUCK!!

Im Committed

Well i've recommitted myself!! I have a photography for dummies book and Im going to use it! Im going to learn how to read lighting and all that fantastic stuff, I am just finding that I really love it, plus I love my aunt taunyas stuff! She is such a good photographer. I've also decided that my next big purchase will be a nice camera, not insanely nice, but 300 dollars or so I think is what i'm goint to give it, I know I want it to be digital. Maybe a rebel, I should start researching now but if I do that i'll probably find something amazing and HAVE to have it right then. Wow im greatful I have a job.

Noels new swimsuits

Well the weather sure isn't good enough to go swimming yet but I couldn't help putting noel in her little swim suits and see how they looked. I for one think they are REDICULOUSLY ADORABLE!! I would like to thank Randy and Alice for these, they were hand-me-downs from abby! I can't get enough of them, especiall the yellow one that will do such a good job of protecting her skin in the sun! The other one I'll just use in indoor places. I can already tell she's going to be a good little swimmer, she just loves the bath and kicks around. Although she keeps trying to turn over in the tub which makes me nervous! It'll be a long long time before I'll be able to take even one eye off her.


Weekend at Cherie's

So this past weekend I went to Cherie's to help her move. Let me just say I'm completely in love with their new house. I think it's so perfect for them! I keep looking at any day that I have off so that I can go down and visit. She has an awesome room for a salon, and one for a playroom right by it. Even amongst all the chaos of moving in she took some time out to cut and color my hair. There must be something about the new salon room because it was the best hair cut I've ever had. I can not stop running my fingers through it and people keep telling me the color looks great. Don't get me wrong she always does amazing things, but this was Hollywood good.

I got to watch the boys for a while and I loved it! They have the most amazing backyard I should have gotten some pictures of it dang it! We had such a good time and they loved their house. Noel loved it too. There were so many toys there she was in heaven!! I can't wait for my next day off!

Noel's First time eating cereal!

Well it was an exciting day for both of us!! The first time you make cereal it is really really runny, so it wasnt the easiest situation. It basically just ran down her face the whole time. She was opening her mouth waiting for it though. I really think that she was ready for it. Her favorite part was playing with the spoon after we were done. The following day I made the cereal a lot thicker and she loved it!! She ate the whole bowl! I couldn't believe it. If that wasnt exciting enough your never going to believe what happened that night!! I put her to sleep, went to bed myself and she slept till 7:30!!!!! Oh it was a beautiful thing. I am so happy for this sleeping through the night thing that everone keeps talking about to finally start happening!!






Thursday, March 26, 2009

Well here it is, after many long nights of study and research I made my purchase! I had been deadlocked for a while between two high chairs that were about the same price, both had great parent reviews, both would work for girls and boys, and I like both of their styles about equally. I didn't know what to do, I don't know why I get so stressed on making these silly decisions but I do. They were both ones I had found on the internet and not in any local stores.
Then one night my mom and I were at walmart getting a few things and I decided I would just browse over to the high chairs to take another look, the ones on display were still not what I wanted, but then my mom saw a box under the display shelf and said "wasnt this one of the ones you wanted?" and it WAS!!! I was so excited, now I wouldn't have to pay shipping and it would make up my mind for me. So here it is!!
