Diddle Update

Diddle now has 7 teeth! He loves to feed himself which means we are having to get really creative with his foods. Last night was Tofu and Advacado for dinner. I turned my back for a second and he had smushed his bite size pieces and rubbed them all over his face. I could not find the camera to take a picture- but I assure you it was funny!

Wedding Updates...

It's been awhile since I posted anything about the wedding, so here are a few updates:
1) Dress has been purchased!
2) Decorations are sitting in a closet waiting for their debut.
3) Invitations to be order within the next few weeks.
4) Still searching for our Mexican dream honeymoon. (Not as much searching as waiting for cheap prices)

Less than 5 months to go!!!

Crying It Out


The past few weeks have brought many sleepless nights to the Dunfee/Crabtree household. My once perfect sleeper now rolls over and gets stuck resulting in a sleepwalking Mommy or Daddy staggering in to straighten things out. It's like having a new born all over again!

We were also having issues getting him to go to bed and decided to give the "cry it out" method a try. After two nights of this, I realized that the boy just wasn't ready to go to bed at 6:30 (his old bedtime). We have extended his bedtime to 8 thus no more issues getting him to go to bed. You live and you learn I guess.

Poop


I looked beside the chair today and found what I thought was a piece of poop. I screamed to Casey that the cat (Tina) had pooped in the house. I rationalized that she must be mad at us because of the baby and that she never gets any attention. I went to get the rubber gloves and TP to pick it up when I realized it was a piece of turkey burger (dinner 2 nights ago).

Poor Tina gets the blame for something that was Casey's fault.

Golf Attire


The new job requires me to purchase high end golf apparel for very rich people. A sleeveless women's shirt costs as much as $90 (retail)! There is not any part of me that can fathom purchasing a sleeveless cotton shirt for that price. I am so cheap I wouldn't even purchase the shirt at wholesale price (around $45). Of course not being in the golf industry, these are brands I have never heard of...seriously though. A shirt that expensive to play 2 hours of golf in?! I just don't get it. My fiance had to talk some sense into me saying "These people are not clearance shoppers like you. They have money to burn and do not hesitate to pay full price for something they want."
Here are some of the brands in our shop: Lija, Tehama, EP Pro, Jamie Saddock, Walter Genuin, and Fairway & Green. Thoughts anyone???? (Some of it is HIDEOUS!!!!)

Bargain Safety


A few months ago, I found a Britax carseat at Target for 30% off. I thought I was getting the deal of the century! Britax is the #1 rated carseat in most baby publications. A few weeks later- I found a better version for 75% off!!! It's a good thing I have a sister with twins....They had exactly 2 left. A $279.00 carseat for a mere $68.oo each. Like I said before- others reap the benefits of my bargain shopping.

Lazy

Well, I guess I will never be an infamous blogger since I can't seem to update it. Between a new job and a baby that is getting more fun to play with every day- I can't find time to write a post.
