Copy Cat

Jesse started blowing raspberries at jayden and he thought it was so funny. Yesterday morning when Jayden was laying in bed with me, he looked right over at me and blew one right in my face. I had never seen him do that before! And since then, he has been doing them A LOT!

This picture pretty much sums up Jayden's first Thanksgiving...

Thankful Me

I am thankful for my mommy, my daddy, and some good ol' rice cereal!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Baltimore, Maryland (Part 2)

Tomorrow doesn't even feel like Thanksgiving. Maybe its because i'm not in school teaching the kiddos about pilgrims and indians the whole month before. Turning butter and making pilgrim hats. Or maybe its because I won't be spending a whole day in the car traveling to Pappy's or eating my mom's awesome cooking. Perhaps its because Jayden and I already semi celebrated Thanksgiving with these wonderful people...

Thanks to my wonderful friend Katie, I now know how to save the big bucks. She showed me this great little website mashupmom.com. Its a local chicagoland coupon saving website. And just to show you how awesome it is, here is my purchase from Jewel Osco.

9 litters of Sierra Mist, 9 boxes of Swiss Miss, 6 boxes of Green Giant frozen veggies, 4 boxes of jello, 2 boxes of popcorn, 1 Burtoni ravioli, 2 boxes of Barrilla pasta, 1 can of Gerber oatmeal, and 6 packages of Gerber baby food, 2pack scott toilet paper, and 1 box of Swanson chicken broth

All equalling a grand total of......... -$3.82

That means the grocery store actually GAVE me $3.82. I made money buying these groceries! CRAZY HUH?!

So I then stopped by Goodwill on my way home and spent my cash on this...

Toys for my Boy.

Jayden's love...

Jayden loooooves little girls. Which is good because 95% of my friends have little girls. However, there is one little girl he seems to look at a little more than the others. Her name is Brooklyn and she is adorable...

FOOOOOD!

Jayden's first food was a yummy rice cereal and breastmilk combo. I was nervous to see if he was ready to eat. I had originally thought i'd wait till closer to 6 months to begin food. However, the past week he has been very interested in what we're eating and trying to get it for himself. The pediatrician said he needed iron and cereal was a great way to get it. So I mixed a little up today and WOAH was he ready to eat! This boy looooves food. He'd open his mouth up wide and try to grab the spoon to get it in sooner. Here are some pics of my little sweetie's first food.
