Happy Halloween!

We had a great turn out this year for trick-or-treaters. B went all out again and made a graveyard in the front as well as decorated to the nines. We have this mummy that just stands there until you walk by and then its eyes light up and it starts making all of this noise. The little kids were pretty hesitant to walk up, but did with some coaxing. There were lots of screams from the older kids. It was great.

Last year, the smoke from the fires that burned up San Diego kept a lot of kids home. We were pretty bummed. But, it turned out great this year. Yay!

Bubbie’s costume was so cute - he was Robin. He got to “help” pass out candy for a little while before bed. (He was carried to the door and held while I gave out candy.) B and I can’t wait for him to be big enough to really enjoy it. Halloween is B’s favorite holiday. I think we’re going to be 50’s folk next year, with me in a poodle skirt, and B and Bubbie as greasers. I’m already planning…

Boo!

I’m so bummed today. After not working since May, I have to find a part time job to help with the bills. Now, I know that this sounds whiny, but I am whining!! I love being at home with little man every day and I’m not looking forward to having to substitute a couple of days a week as well as work a retail job. I just need to come into a ridiculous amount of money so B and I never have to work again. Anyone feeling generous?

I'm still tired!

So Vegas was a lot of fun. I’m still kind of recovering from the debauchery. It was actually a lot tougher to leave little man then I thought it would be. I was in tears a couple of times, but I’m glad I went. B did great with him. Right before I left, I made my first 2 sales on my etsy page so I was super excited. Granted, they were to friends, but I did sell something. Yay!

We've got diapers!

We got our order of Bum Genius diapers yesterday and I’m super excited. We started using them this morning and so far have not had too bad of a time with them. Little man did decide to christen 2 of them with number 2, which is weird for him. (He usually only goes once a day.) I did have these flushable liners in the diapers so it wasn’t too bad. He doesn’t seem to mind their fluffiness.

Vegas Baby!

So, I’m going to Vegas tomorrow with 3 of my bestest friends. I feel a little torn over that fact that I’m leaving little man with B for 3 days when he’s only 5 months old. I know that B will just fine with him, but I kind of feel like I’m being a bad mom. My friends and I had planned this trip a long time ago and I guess I didn’t think leaving little man with be so hard, even for just a few days. I should have a good time though, when I’m not worried about my little guy.
