  • Your Baby Can Read

    i am not one to say how much i like products mainly b/c i dont like to write about specific things. however this product actually works! my father in law saw this one TV before B was born and got the whole set for us. i sorta just put it off b/c well i cant imagine letting my 3 month old (thats the recommended start age) watch a DVD. not only that would a 3 month old even watch it... no we tried and it didnt work at all. recently i put it in the DVD player in the car. we watch 1 show on the way to my mom in the am which is a 20 minte ride and we also watch its to go around town just b/c it keeps him entertained in the car. he doesnt watch much TV so i dont mind playing it in the car while we drive around time. in the past 2 months we have been playing this in the car and at home some to. HE TOTALLY GETS IT!!! yeah he can read words. i am so amazed. he does really well. i cant believe how well it works. we do flash cards everyday with the DVD's and he loves it. he loves doing the flash cards to and will site while i run thru all of them. there are still lots of words he doesnt know but he is catching on quickly. i have put below a list of words he knows

    yes
    no
    hi
    B (his name)
    Bubbles
    babies
    wave
    clap
    kick
    nose
    eye
    ears
    toes
    roll over
    arms up
    bellybutton
    tiger
    chimpanzee
    hippo
    elephant
    spider
    hat
    fun
    happy
    swing
    star
    dog
    mouth
    duck
    ball

    we are working on colors and shapes now. i just cant believe how much he knows and he pretty much learns a new word every day. i am amazed by this program and just had to tell everyone about it. Note: they are in no way paying me to say this i just think its an awesome progam and thought others may want to know about it

  • Surprise!

    i cant wait to share whats coming and i dont have anyone i can talk about it at home so i am writing here. dustins b-day in on the 29th and i wanted to do something really special for him and the whole family. i got him some rangers tickets (work has them for 1/2 price) and i told him that was his present but i really wanted a vacation... so where are we going

    yup thats right we are talking a surprise trip to seaworld!!!! YAY! B loves fish and i got a great deal. we are only about 4 hrs away so i am taking off a few hrs on a friday and we are going. now i am not telling dustin at all but i so want to. we are going may 11-13. and we have a hotel (a suite) a mile away from the hotel. we get season passes with the package and a dining pass which gives us all food all day. this package actually came out cheaper than if we got the kids stay free pacakge.. dont kow how that works b/c we got food but hey it works for me. now the real exciting part (for B at least)

    yup thats right we are having breakfast with elmo and friends!!!! B is going to be so excited he loves Elmo, Big Bird and Monster (of the cookie kind of course). i am just so excited and cant wait. i hate that i have to keep it a secret till then but i know we will have so much fun. we have a few action back weekends ahead of us and i will try to blog more about them. i havent gone to weight watchers in a few weeks b/c dustin has been working late blah!he just called and said he is coming home now i wish he didnt have to work so much but after everything gets fixed he will be back to his normal schedule and not wont have to work late again for hopefully months. anyways i just wanted to write b/c i am so excited

  • where have i been?

    not here obviously! hehe. ok bad joke. i would love to tell everyone how great i have been doing and what wonderful things we have been doing but well we have been really boring. nothing much. B celebrated his 2nd birthday and DH will celebrate 31 in a few weeks and (gulp) i will be 30 in a few months. i am actually not that worried... age is just a #. i still feel young so not really that worried now the day i turn i may not feel that way but right now its no biggy. i stoped going to WW for like 6 weeks b/c DH was working so much i didnt have time or was so tired i just wanted to go home and spend time with DH and B. i actually wasnt to upset with i went back :) i only gained 1.6lbs back YAY!!!!

    2.1.2012: -4.2lbs = 4.6lbs total lost
    2.8.2012: -1.2lbs = 5.8lbs total lost
    2.15.2012: -1.0lbs = 6.8lbs total lost
    3.28.2012: +1.6lbs = 5.2 total lost


    i am still lost over 5lbs so i am really happy. i now weigh what i weighed when b was born and i only gained 5lbs total (but i am overweight). i have 5 lbs till i am back to what i was. i have also given myself specific goals to be working for starting at 10lbs and then every 5lbs after that. i figure it will come off slowly so it would be a pampering about once a month hopefully. i will post that eventually but its at work so i need to get it.

    on other news i am starting to think about wanting to have another baby. i know i know i thouth we were one and done but now i am just not sure. i want to put a list togehter of pros and cons and see what i come up with just for fun. i figure we will be getting pregnant by dec if we do decide b/c i dont want b and A to far appart. we have unisex name already picked out so it really doesnt matter if its a boy or girl (Alex- Alex or Alexis). i know we are crazy but its about the only girls name we could come up with when we were pregnant with B so i figure we will go with that as well. if anyone can give me any good or bad reasons to have a second baby please let me know.

    ok that was really random. sorry b has been getting up and down a lot at night since we switched him to a big boy bed. i think he just likes us to tuck him back in but i am so tired. going to bed now but wanted to update while i was thinking about it.
