Some of life's mysteries

Why are kids obsessed with "toys" that aren't theirs? And that being the case, why don't toy manufacturers make all baby toys look like dog toys and McDonald's cups?

Boys beware...

Someone sent this to me and it's too funny not to share!

Oh snap!

We've got some milestones going on around here... first off, and most importantly, Bruce is saying "Mama". Now, not on demand or anything, but those are still sounds coming out of his mouth!

We've also got some waving and "snapping." Okay, not really snapping, but if you snap he wiggles his fingers all around trying to figure it out. I just wanted to pretend like he was all advanced so you'd all go "dang, how'd that boy get so smart...oh right, look who his mom is."

Most entertaining is the "forehead crawling" where he digs his forehead into the ground, gets his big old booty up in the air and tries to push with his feet. This is, as it turns out, a highly inefficient way to get around (I tried it...not really, but I wanted you to all get that visual!) The only downside to this, is he now tries it in his crib and gets himself shoved all into a corner and cries until I un-stick him. Not cool Bruce, not cool.

Word of advice...

Never play "peak a boo" shortly after a feeding...I just got projectile spit up all over my face. This has got to be one of the grossest things that's ever happened to me. Probably only second to having a bird poop on me. Yay for children!

Diapers savings...

Just wanted to let you all know...there are major diaper savings at Amazon right now. Just click here and it will take you to the Amazon website where you can get 30% if you sign up for "subscribe and save" (which you can cancel anytime...) and use the promotion code: PMPRSDO8

This is available until the 7th. I figured it out and here's the breakdown:
Price per diaper based on the biggest box sold in Pampers Cruisers (the best ones we've found in terms of value for your money) in a size three:

Diapers.com (with no tax and free shipping): $0.27 / diaper
Target: $0.26 / diaper
Babies R Us: $0.25 / diaper
Amazon (with 30% off, no tax, and free shipping...): $0.21 / diaper
