There is also a boppy recall in this whole world of recalls....I have a boppy cover that fits this description...just called it in and am awaiting a call back to see if okay or what they will do.

I do know so many of my friends whom use the boppy, so maybe you will all check out as well.

A sick house

We had a great time at home with Mom, Dad, & Family..but Justin got his first cold...a chest cold and still has a small cough...unfortunately Todd has now come down with it...I have a sore throat and hope that is all I get???

We had a nice Turkey day with the family - Check out Tootlepops for a pic of Justin in Grandma's wig..he didn't mind it at all...

Friday was busy preparing for Saturday's big feast...we had about 50 people at Mom & Dad's house with a concert too! What a weekend - it flew by way too fast!

Cloth Diapers - taking the plunge

First of all,

Happy Turkey Day tomorrow!!!

I just ordered 5 Kushie's...and 10 inserts. I recently purchased the G-diapers and am thinking that I can use the inserts in the G's....many people online do it too....and the Kushies are a very affordable All in one cloth diaper....we are taking the plunge to do it....I figure we can save some mega $$$$ by going cloth....using the G's today....

Will let you know how that all goes....I am a bit nervous about the #2's..... :)

just a few pics

Here is our handsome man playing with his toys in the kitchen area....he is such a good baby!

Justin's 9 month checkup

We went in yesterday for Justin's 9 month checkup. He is doing well...a healthy baby boy. He weighs in at 20 lbs, 10 oz and is 29 inches tall.

Also a new development

On Mom and Dad's anniversary, Justin started crawling on his knees....he is moving like crazy and we have to chase him around...he is getting faster

The going green bit

Okay, so lately the hot topic is going "GREEN". We recently started to recycle some items, and that is working well. I found out that all my tin cans (soup cans, etc) are recycleable ( I knew that ) ... but the even better part is that I can get cash for the tin. That was even more incentive to start recycling tin for sure. I need to do a drive by of the recycle place and find out what they take for money...hey, on a single income, every penny counts!

Also, just this past week, we got G-Diapers we have only tried them once so far...they are not cheap by any means...Aunt Dana got a bargain on the starter kits, so we are giving it a shot...I looked into buying more of them, and I found them for $0.45 a piece...and I can get Huggies for $0.17 at Costco...again the pinching pennies....that is like 2 for 1...but I will keep my eye out for good deals of the G's.

A workin boy

While visiting Grandma and Grandpa, Grandpa decided to make his new chair rock instead of just kick out...Justin was a great helper.

Learning what to do...


I think I can get used to this...


Yup, I am sure this is how it works.


I like these tools too.

My most recent trip to Mom & Dad's

I left for Oregon a week ago Friday for Mom & Dad's 40th Anniversary Party (well, one of 2 I think we are planning). Todd was lucky enough to get off work early on Friday, so we didn't have to hotel room it for the night and were able to get to Mom & Dad's for a late dinner. Mom didn't know we were going to be there for dinner, so it was a good surprise for her.

Saturday was the big event...Jim found this swing (Dad wanted to have 3 or 4, but they are out of season, so this one made 2). Just loved the swing..and Grandpa loved pushing him in it. We had many kids there..a ton of cousins to play with.




Mom and Dad's Cake...for Saturday.



The happy couple....Sunday was their "real" anniversary, so Christina got them a cake for Sunday just for them. Justin and I went to town and gave them a bit of time to celebrate....



On Sunday, we also celebrated Gabbi's birthday. I think she liked her piece of cake....

Halloween at our house

Justin was very interested in the strange people coming to our door last night. He didn't want to be left out of the deal, so he came with us to the door - the expression on his face was so funny. He really wanted a piece of candy too, and as I would hand them out, he would grab some from the bowl....

We didn't dress him up this year. We had a hand me down costume, but it was too small. Grandma Nellie bought him this shirt, and it was a hit! Next year we might try a costume....
