Words of Thankfullness

Lorelai has blossomed over the last week or so with her vocabulary. She was basically saying Momma & Dadda. But now she is up to many many more words.

Baba = baby (Harry)
Sis = Sister (Ellaree)
Ni Ni = night night
ba ba = bye bye

and her new word as of today....

NO! = no

Great, right, the word all parents hope their kid doesn't pick up on. Oh well.

The other cute thing Lorelai is doing these days (and yes I did say cute) is she throws herself down on the ground and throws a temper tantrum. Obviously I don't show her that I think it is cute but it is just to cute and funny. I keep these moments of laughter for the end of the day when everyone is sleeping. Hopefully this doesn't last long as it is not a good habit to let her do.

I have finally convinced my husband that Lil Harry needs his own crib. He can't sleep comfortably in the pack n play, we are not kicking Lorelai out of her crib yet as I don't think she is big enough to sleep in a big girl bed and so I have convinced him. Of course we didn't want to just buy a crib from a rummage sale although that would save us tons of money or go out and buy a brand new one as that is not really economical either for the short amount of time we will use it. So I went to work emailing my "mom friends" and asking if anyone had a crib they wanted to part with for a small amount of money. Within 10 minutes I had a crib & mattress free from our good friend Gillian. We are so blessed with family and friends as my sister had loaned us her crib for Lorelai.

We are continually reminded from the good Lord that we are loved in so many ways. With this move coming up and not having any more babies in this house, we decided that we would like to give back as much as possible to others like we were given to us at one time. Therefore instead of doing a rummage sale or selling our stuff at a thrift store we have been giving baby items to those that can use them left and right. It has been so much fun to have those that need/want them enjoy going through all our clothes and equipment.

I love these little reminders from God that we are loved and he takes care of us.
