Mothers day

My friend Amy just made me this sweet necklace, I was going to save it for mother's day but I couldn't wait to wear it. She does the personalization-this necklace would be about $15 I think, a perfect mother's day gift. She has a blog HERE.

I cannot believe how much Jack looks like Kire. Here are a few examples:

Boob warmers

So unlike the picture below, I normally wear breast pads so I don't leak all over. Well this morning when i was putting them in Kire asks, "mom why are you using those, to keep your boobies warm?"

Zac Efron

To be honest, I've never seen High school Musical, but I think Zac Efron is kind of adorable. I saw him on SNL and this sketch is pretty funny. I know it looks totally cheesy, but I want to see 17 Again, anyone with me?

1 month

My chubby sweet Jack is 1 month old. He is such a great baby. He rarely cries, except at night because he gets so stuffy he can't breath. He still won't sleep longer than like 2 hours at night, but hopefully that will change soon. Kire still just loves him, it'll be fun when they can play together.

He still has kept his beautiful dark skin color, and his eyes are looking blue. I think he's going to give Kire a run for his money.

30 Rock

"What the what!" Can I just say I love 30 Rock. It is starting to beat out The Office as my favorite comedy. Last weeks episode made me laugh forever; Liz is trying to persuade this guy not to cut her budget so she tries to seduce him. Later she finds out the bribe didn't take, so she's talking to Jack:

Liz-"Brad and I had a deal, I gave him top front."

Jack-"Top front, good lord Lemmon that's your worst quadrant."

Never Judge a mom by the way her kid's dressed

Since Jack's been born I have to pick my battles with Kire, and picking out clothes isn't one of them. Lately he wants to wear what he wants and he will not let me change his mind. And for some reason he likes his shirts on backwards and his shoes on the wrong feet. He also always wants to wear pj's (can you blame him?). This week I was sick of fighting with him and finally allowed him to wear his Christmas footies to Target, along with his mickey mouse crocs on the wrong feet. I used to look at how some kids were dressed and wonder why their moms didn't care and dress them better. Well I will no longer judge. Sometimes kids just want to wear rocket ship pajama bottoms, a spider man t-shirt, a pirate beard, a cowboy hat and 5 bracelets on one arm.

Couponing

I went to an enrichment activity a month ago on couponing.  For the last month I've been getting 5 Sunday newspapers & collecting coupons.  It has been really exciting to see how much I can save.  This week I went to Albertsons and spent $23.  I got all of this and saved $43 plus got a $5 coupon off of my next purchase.  If you are interested in learning, go HERE.

More pics

I got all of Jacks pictures back from Bella-Rose-Photography.  They turned out great.  We didn't get a great one of the whole family cause Kire was being a butt head and I am a cow, but that's ok.
