This was good for about an hour! And no one lost an eye.

Jackson was sitting on the floor during her bath and she was laughing at him.

These are the Dots outfits we got from a co-worker. She always had Dots in her desk drawer and Chris would eat them all. Sadly she left the company this week and we will miss her.

When I left the room she was crawling on the floor. When I came back in she was like this!

Updates

The day after I took the video in the previous post, Madison started pulling herself up to standing. Now there is a lot of head banging going on and sadly it isn't to Quiet Riot. How many times can a baby hit their head on the floor before you should be concerned?

I have to set something straight for moms to be or new moms. Your life does NOT change when you have a baby (unless you count sleep deprivation). It changes when said baby has become mobile. Gone are the days of laying a baby down to play with some toys while I edit some photos or place a photo order or do laundry, etc. Trying to contain said baby makes her stiffen up and screach until you pick her up again and let her crawl around and climb on things leaving me only time to constantly watch her. We even put the pack-n-play away because she hated being in it. If I NEED to contain them for some reason I can put them in their cribs.

She didn't get up like this on her own. I put here this way but still...

More on Halloween

I took M&J to our office in the morning. We work with a lot of crazy people so there were a lot of crazy costumes. M&J were a huge hit. We spent over an hour there!

At 4:30 I took the kids to Nana and Papa's house and Grandma came over too. There was a huge party a couple houses down with tons of kids in costumes running around. Chris joined us there when he got out of work. Nana made me dinner then I had to leave for work. Chris basically just hung out at their house and Auntie came over.

Madison's red hair mystry is solved

MeMe

I was tagged by my new pal Keri to do a meme. I'm supposed to tell 6 things about myself that no one knows. This is hard because to my blog friends I could write a novel of things you don't know about me but my family and real life friends probably know everything already. I'll do my best for it to be stuff that no one knows.

1. I love all things that sparkle...always have. My mother jokes that she was worried I would grow up to be a hooker. I try hard to suppress this love but sometimes I just can't resist.

2. I used had a small stud nose ring for 4 years in my 20's. I took it out for my wedding in 2001 and never put it back in. It's closed up now and I regret it. I feel like I'm too old to get it redone at this point.

3. I played the role of Frauline Kost (a prostitute) in my college production of Cabaret. Yes, I stood on stage in lingerie and sang a song by myself.

4. I was a basketball cheerleader for 3 years in HS

5. I hold my HS record of fastest time in the 400M sprint (unless someone has broken it by now which is entirely possible)

6. I have a Bachelor of Music degree from UMass (Saxophone was my major but I also play flute)

7. (I know I was supposed to stop at 6 but I have to add this one) I want a tattoo!!!! I've always wanted one but was at least smart enough to know I had to LOVE what I got. I now KNOW what I want and where I want it. I just have to convince Chris to let me get it!
