Favorites

I have always wondered how long it would be before I would start to see that Amber had favorite things. So far she doesn't have a favorite toy, stuffed animal, blanket, outfit, etc. However, she does have a favorite TV show. It's called "Super Why!" I don't let her watch a lot of TV and when she does watch it, it is in the morning time. It's such a huge controversy on the subject of TV and letting babies watch it. So my take is the less she watches the better. Ok I'll get off my soap box now :) So I turn the TV on in the morning and let her play after she has eaten breakfast. As soon as the show "Super Why!" comes on nothing else matters. She freezes and intently watches. She dances to the songs that come on and it's so cute. So as for now the only favorite that she has in her life is a TV show. I love that she loves this show because it's all about reading and spelling. As for favorite blanket or stuffed animal I have heard that if you can to buy several so you can wash the dirty one and she will never know :)

Nerf Gun and Pork Rinds!

Can you guess what this title is all about?

It is the gifts that Ricky got for Father's Day! :)

Story behind the random gifts:

Ricky told me that at his work they guys randomly will pull out nerf guns and have little "wars." Well, Ricky didn't have one so he would just be the buffer of the "war", which wasn't very fun. So I was at the dollar store one day and notice a little tiny nerf gun and said I'll get him that, thinking it would work just fine. In the words of Ricky, "the gun shot about as far as the dollar bill used to pay for it :) " So then he was the comic relief for their little "wars." So to redeem myself I decided to buy him a big, normal nerf gun.

As for the pork rinds, Ricky just really likes them. One and my mom and I were at Sam's and saw a HUGE thing of them and I thought it was be funny to get them for him.

All in all he was pleased with his gifts :) And of course we had to play a game of Catan today as well. 

Teething

Our little sweetie pie has her two bottom teeth showing! Finally after 10 months we can see something! I still can't feel them but you can see them. It has been tough the past couple of days with napping and going to bed at night. I think it is so interesting that all the doctors say there aren't any signs of teething but mother's say differently. She has had a stuffed up or running nose the past week and like I said sleeping has been crazy. I don't know if she has had a fever to go along with it but I give her Tylenol anyway to help with her gums.  We have had to put her to sleep again, which we haven't done in months. But tonight she only cried for my 10 min. and then we didn't hear her anymore. Hopefully we are getting back on track! Any moms out there have any advice about teething please share!!
