All Great Things

Some wonderful things we are up to these days:

The jumperoo!  I don't think it is really called this however I feel the need to refer to it as the jumperoo.  A month ago she was still too small for it and not just ready, but this past weekend we put her in there with a hand towel for extra stabilization and she is loving it!

Oatmeal!  Madison started on oatmeal this past weekend and she loves it.  She will even reach up for the spoon and "help" you bring it to her mouth.  I think it just has a little more flavor than the rice cereal.  I can't believe in only one more month she will be eating baby food.  I have every intention of making my own baby food and can't wait!  Every night at 7PM she gets 2 tablespoons of oatmeal with 1.5 ounces of breast milk.  It is by far the messiest point of the day but also one of the funnest.

School supplies! I like LOVE school supplies. This is absolutely my favorite time of the year and I am so lucky that I married a teacher/coach because I did not have to loose this excitement when I graduated. Every August is always about starting fresh and getting ready for the "year" ahead.  My favorite school staple was always the day planner.  So, in the spirit of the new "year" I have decided I must have the MomAgenda day planner.  It is perfect because it goes from August to August.

As hi-tech as everything gets, I am just a traditional girl and I like to write down my lists and thoughts!  As handy as it is to have my outlook and iphone nothing compares to making lists and getting to mark through the item when it is complete!  This should help me loose the many notebooks/lists and calendars and organize it all into one place!  And it doesn't hurt that it comes in fun colors and patterns!  Now do I get the larger desktop version or the smaller version?? Decisions!
