i came home from work and this was how deige was sleeping....what a weirdo, but a cute weirdo...

little man loves bath time now

little man deige LOVES his bath time now. FINALLY! he hated it forever. but we learned that he is much happier when he gets in the big person bath tub with his daddy. =) he LOVES water. and loves to be covered in warm water while he bathes. so we put him in with micah and micah holds him and dips his little legs and body in the water while i suds him up. he giggles and laughs. he LOVES it. i have the most adorable picture of it and i will have to remember to post it on here. so...be on the lookout for it!~

XOXO,

zoe and zane's halloween party

our neighbors, zoe and zane, had a halloween party. deige dressed as a pumpkin. zoe was dorothy from the wizard of oz. she's 5 and so so cute~ she was busy partying with her friends...but zane had time to hold little deige. zane was a dragon. so cute! i love the photo of them together. zoe and zane are going to be great friends with deige. having great neighbors makes all the difference in the world. we love them!

amusemebaby.com

ever since amusemebaby.com sent me a nursing cover, i have literally used it several times a day! it makes it SOOO much easier to go out in public. i took it to my friend's home for a dinner party. i was able to sit at the table and eat with everyone while i nursed deige under the pretty curtain. it's so cute! their fabrics are gorgeous! i would definitely recommend these to all nursing moms. i may have to get another one before i'm done nursing this year! =)

Ramalama

So, i know i already wrote a blog about it, but this is just such a fabulous bag that i have to talk about it again! seriously, this diaper bag doesn't even look like a diaper bag. its super chic and so soft! people think it's my purse, not a bulky diaper bag. i LOVE that! it's called RAMALAMA and its from a darling website called www.mamasandmunchkins.com They have TONS of great items if youre a new mom, a mom to be, or even just getting a gift for someone who is a mom. I also love their Built NY double thirsty totes. they strap on strollers or diaper bags and make bottle finding MUCH easier than digging through a bag. they are super cute, too! anyway, thanks to Teri from www.mamasandmunchins.com i now have the BEST diaper bag ever! Don't forget to check them out!

XOXO,
