Okay Kate, here goes. In no particular order. These are 5 of my must haves or just things that I like. By the way, I love Charlotte's shoes, on her list.

I have an unhealthy love for bikes. So of course, to have my son on the bike with me, would be heaven. I don't know the price but I'm sure it's too much.




3.



Aren't these awesome. I would love to have these in the craft closet. What a fun tool. Thanks Martha!!








4. This is a much needed product these days. Cole is learning to feed himself. Very messy. I just wonder what happens when the toddler launches it off the table.




5. This one isn't needed as much now, but when diapers, bottles, and naps were so frequent to count, we really could have used this one. So cool.




ItzBeen Baby Care Timer allows you to remember the exact times of when you fed, changed and put your precious back to sleep with a reminder alarm for each event. If the time limit is reached, the button lights up and the alarm will sound. It also has an additional button that you can time whatever else you might need. You can set it for the last time medication was administered or you can use it to track those walking scenes in LOTR. So, so many walking scenes. It also has a super cool night light, bright enough to help you make your way to your geekling in the middle of the night when you are half asleep. The display is backlit, so you can see the timers in the dark and it has a back clip on it to keep it with you at all times during the day. For nursing moms, there is a left/right nursing reminder that helps mom remember which side she last nursed from. For your wee geek-related chores, you'll have one ItzBeen to record them all and in the darkness time them! (blurb written by thinkgeek.com)

Update

A brief update for all our out of town friends & family that we don't get to talk to very much. Call us, by the way.. Odds are we lost your number. We have both ruined our respective cell phones. One in a tragic washing machine accident, the other in Cole's first swimming pool experience. Call or text us your phone number. We would love to hear from you.

FIRSTS:

Cole. He has his first TWO teeth. He as just recently started crawling. It's a little slow going, but coming a long faster than I think we are ready. He is also slowing starting to eat solids. He isn't quite patient enough, or maybe I'm not, I'm not sure which.

Mini Van. We have one. We bought my, Della, brother's mini van. We've had it for a little over 24 hours. It's awesome, and kind of lame, but more awesome. I just don't feel quite ready. However, today Georgia was in the very back, and Cole could see her, and he could not stop laughing at her. It was so sweet. That made the "soccer Mom" feeling (not that there is anything wrong with it) all worth it.

House. We are closing on our first house on the 15th. We are pumped. We were supposed to close a little while ago, but I made a tiny huge mistake. To qualify for the first time homebuyers Obama tax credit you can't have owned a house in the previous 3 years. I, however, sold my house 2 years, 11 months and 2 weeks ago. LAME. So we had to move the closing date two weeks. It is going to be well worth the wait. Pictures to come later.

Uhhh that's all I can think of right now.



Georgia turned to two last week. She is clearly still very much a puppy.
