The best toy ever

An empty can of Pringles! Hours of Fun!!!!

Happy Thanksgiving

We had a nice time with my parents and my dad's side of the family. Nathaniel was especially thankful for the Aunts and Grandparents that wanted to hold him and entertain him.

Black Friday

The best part about Black Friday was hanging out with my mom. We used to go out every year, but the last few years we haven't had a chance to. Mom graciously drove to my side of town and stood in lines with me. I don't think I got any spectacular deals... but I did get a lot of stuff (at a decent price) crossed of my list :-) And like I said the best part about it was time with my mom. I love you mom!

9 Month Picture

Yikes! I realized I haven't posted Nathaniel's month picture and he is almost ready for his 10 month sitting! What a handsome boy he is!

Where have I been????

Honestly... I've been going coupon crazy and have been sucked into these websites which tell me where the deals are.... that and Nathaniel has been keeping me busy too :-) I can't figure out if he needs 2 naps or just 1 now. The last two days he has slept a good 2 to 2.5 hour nap in the middle of the day. Which is nice, but unexpected so I can't say I've much to show for all that time :-) Tomorrow I plan to rake the leaves :-) Anyway, I paid 66 cents for two packages of Philadelphia Cream cheese today... saving $4.57! What a steal! And I did find Nathaniel's Christmas present... a LeapFrog toy retail $22.... my price 49 cents!!!!! Plus I got my Christmas cards done for FREE! See one could easily get addicted to these websites! Nathaniel and I have also been out and about enjoying the beautiful weather... and showing up for Swim Aerobics/Zumba workout almost everyday.

9 Months Old

Teeth #5, 6, & 7 are now present! Nathaniel is becoming more and more mobile. Today at the Doctors office he was slowly moving in circles on the table. He is totally into grabbing anything he can get his hands on! We were happy to hear that no shots were necessary today and actually elected the H1N1 vaccination while we were there. I feel like we've been all over the map on what to do about this vaccination, so it's nice to finally have it done and over with. He is still rather small for his age, but has been eating much better the last few weeks. And his smile is still worth all the sleepless nights :0)
