Thanks

I try to go through Jace's room and belongings every month and get rid of things he has grown out of and sanitize all of his toys. It blows my mind how dirty he can be without really going anywhere! We got a new washer and dryer about a month ago and I find myself washing Jace's toys more often than I wash my own jeans. So back to where I was going with this; I was sorting through clothes and toys on Sunday afternoon and realized that Anthony and I had really only paid for a small amount of Jaces belongings. So I wanted to send an official thank you to both of our gracious families. Thank you for all of the graduation money, the wedding money, the baby shower gifts. Thank you for taking us to dinner, for buying Jace toys and clothes and books and diapers. Thank you for always supporting and encouraging us through each stage of our lives!

Back to Jace since this is his blog :-)

Today was his 6 month well check which was really his 6.5 month check up. Our little giant weighed in at a whopping 20 lbs, 11 oz, the 83rd percentile! I felt like he had been getting taller and I was right, he is 27 inches, the 60th percentile for his age. We bought a few older baby toys last week and Jace could not be more thrilled. Not until I had a child did I realize that the older they get the more expensive their toys get. But that's why we have 2nd hand stores and bleach. My grandma used to bleach everything...everything. She was always sanitizing and I used to hate the smell of bleach but I've come to love it recently, haha. On a weird cleaning tangent, I bought this Mr Clean multi purpose cleaner that is lavender scented and I have been using it to mop the floors. That stuff smells so good that I would mop the floor every day if I had time. Even Anthony commented on how good it smelled and he usually complains about the smell every time I clean. Its wonderful, you should go buy some. I also have a new found appreciation for swiffers. I used to think swiffers were a waste of money when you could just use a rag but swiffers are soooo much better! I love them!

Back to the toys; everything we bought plays music and I've come to find that Jace loves to dance. Both my Mom and Anthony's Dad love to dance so I think Jace inherited their dancing feet. He's so cute, he'll sit down playing with his toys and shaking his little baby booty around :-)

I'd also like to note that blogger is being a real pain in my bum and won't let me upload any pictures or videos. Grrrr!

  1. Swiffer WetJet is the best. I hate it when the Swiffer pads get dry (the wet variety that is). With the WetJet you can just spray some more crap on the pad instead of grabbing a new one. Of course, the cheaper option would just be to use some more Mr Clean Lavender with the Swiffer...
