6QT

Thanks Kristine for the tag...

Six quirky things about me (according to me):

1) I am obsessed with reading. Literally. I've read 45 books so far this year.

2) I hate wasting time. I'm known to read while waiting for the elevator, in the grocery line, etc even if it's only for 90 seconds I hate doing nothing (or not doing two things at once when possible).

3) I'm a scrapbooker but I'm also a scrapbook supplies collector. Poor Adam has to put up with my piles and piles of supplies...

4) I'm not the least bit spontaneous unless it's my own idea. I hate having the plans change at the last minute and it really puts me in a funk.

5) I take ridiculous numbers of pictures. And then I have a hard time deleting even the ones I know I'll never use because I'm afraid I'll regret it.

6) I love getting a good deal whether it's a sale, a coupon, whatever, I just feel so good when I know I got a discount.

Now I tag Holli, Emily, and Kelly!

Shoe suggestions anyone?

Charlie loves to swing.



































Charlie loved watching conference in his little chair.















The family I babysit have one of those tall tables. Charlie likes to go under it and play with all the chair legs.











I can't believe how big he looks in his tub now. He still loves the bath.














An old picture of Charlie and me and a couple new ones.












One of Charlie's most favorite things right now is story time. If he's upset and we read to him he'll usually calm down. I love that he loves books! I hope he'll always love to read!













I love how he stops to dance for a second. Charlie loves music and will almost always dance when he hears music.


As Charlie is now officially a walker (you can see how much more steady he is in the video) I have entered the new realm of baby shoes. Right now we have Target brand Robeez knockoffs which are great. However as the weather becomes more wet those nice flexible leather soles will not be keeping out the rain and snow. After a trip to Stride Rite at the mall I was aghast to learn that the shoes were $47! $47 for baby shoes?! That he'll only wear for 3 months? I don't spend that much on my own shoes! We went to Target and bought some nice $13 shoes instead. The good part of the Stride Rite visit was that I learned Charlie should be wearing a size 5 1/2. That just seems huge to me. The biggest size Target had with the flexible sole is size 5 (which I bought). Now I'm wondering what I'll do for his next pair of shoes. Where do you all buy your shoes? I don't want to stunt the growth in his sweet little feet but I really don't want to spend $50 on shoes either. Help!!!

Print your 4x6 prints for only $.06

I just thought I'd share the savings: http://www.winkflash.com/promos/emails/10032008/

Winkflash is having a sale on 4x6 prints. They do a great job and I haven't found a better deal than this. I love their matte finish (but glossy is fine too). Enjoy!
