We are balloon crazy lately

Thanks for all the tips on dry hands...you guys rock!

I can't wait to try a few new lotions and hand treatments.

Hayden is pretty much done with the numi. [pacifier]

I posted awhile back about my worries with him still wanting and needing it. I changed up a few things with him....he was only allowed to have it at bedtime/nap time. My worries really just worked themselves out...as many of you said they would. He didn't ask for it during our nightly routine Thursday night. He hasn't asked for it since, except last night. When I turned his music on, he pointed to the dresser where they used to be. I walked him over there and told him they were gone. He seemed ok with my answer.

Nap times are a bit shorter, and I don't know if it is because he doesn't have his numi, or if he is just going through a growth spurt. Night time isn't a problem at all. Anyway, I'm not willing to give it back to him, so hopefully he will nap better again soon...numi free :)

We have had fun during the cold months playing and doing crafts...BUT some days we run out of stuff to do. We had fun with the balloons a couple of days ago. I bought a bag of them, and we just blow up new ones if we pop 'em. Hayden is so silly...he tries to sit on the balloons. He freaked out when he popped one while sitting on it. Layla and I were totally cracking up.

We are trying to decide if we want to get a gaming system to play. Our friends brought over the Wii on NYE and we had fun with it. But, I just don't know if we would use something like that enough to justify the expense. I think it would be good to have during the rest of the cold winter months. Anyway, I'm thinking on that one. I don't want to turn into a bunch of gaming junkies. We are such 'outdoor' people...I'm afraid if I spend the money on games and the system it would be a waste.

So, this has to be the most random post of jumbled thoughts EVER!!

Have a great Monday afternoon.

I'm gonna go continue to lick my wounds after yesterday's of a football game.

The Cowboys didn't show up, but were there. I'm very sad.
