My sister and sister in law and I went shopping yesterday, we went to several stores. We ended up at Ross. I started to browse the baby clearance section, because sometimes they can have some pretty good markdowns. Well, I was suprised when I saw several item onmarkdown for $0.49. Thats right, $0.49 cents!  I was thrilled! I only had $14.00 and really wanted to spend some it (I cashed in my cans just so I could have a few bucks to spend for a drink or something) I ended up getting 9 items for less that $7.00.

Nathan can only wear 1 item now, but thats ok. The one little outfit I like is a little Finding Nemo shirt and shorts. They were on the rack as seperate pieces and not even right next to each other, but as I browsing I noticed the 2 pieces belonged together. It really pays to shop clearance and maybe even places you don't to normally. (I love Ross, and we 3 in the area)

Nathan has his shots tomorrow, so my little man probably won't feel good for a couple days. I noticed just this morning his little laugh is becoming more of a laugh now instead of a little screech.

 ((( HUGS )))

I missed Nathans Dr. visit today. It was set for 10 am and stupid me thinking it was 11.30. I have the card with the time written on it, I looked at a couple days ago, so why I thought it for 11.30 I have no idea. And it was his 4 month checkup and shots. But I was able to reschedule for Friday @ 1 am. I shouldn't forget that one because Darren has a Dr appointment that day as well.

In the latest Nathan news....

I'm pretty sure he'll cut a tooth soon, his gums are swollen on his left bottom side. I can't wait to see his little 1 toothed grin!!!  Actually with all the crying and pain I kinda hope there is 2.

He's been sleeping alot lately. He wakes up to eat and an hour and a half two hours later he's ready to sleep again.

That's al I can think of for now. TTFN!

The last few days have been difficult. Nathan just doesn't want to be put down. He's fighting hard to stay awake during the day when he is so obviously tired it's pathetic. So I rock him to sleep, which is a feat in itself when he is overtired. When I think he's alseep enough I put him in his bouncy seat (crib is in bedroom and I can't hear him form the rest f the house) he wakes up and starts bawling. And then he's so overtired he cries when I hold him, he cries when I put him down. I just can't win. I get so frustrated, becuase while I LOVE and enjoy holding Nathan, I can't hold him 24/7, it's not good for either of us.

I thought about putting him him down and letting him cry it out, so I'll put him down and he does indeed cry, but then he gets that one cry where I know it's time to pick him up and comfort him. I's been difficult for me. I'm sure it's something I've done to encourage it, but I want to undo it so I can move about my house and do things I need to do. And he's only 3 1/2 months. Any suggestions?

 This is so funny to me.

I put Nathan in the bath with me, he loves it and likes to slpash around. We when I was ready to shower I gave Nathan to Darren to dry and dress him. When I came out and took Nathan, Darren had forgot to out Nathan's socks on underneath his jammies so he out them on the outside!!

I told Darren only a daddy would do something like that!!!!
