How it all Worked Out

Social media crashed for a bit there yesterday, hey? WHAT a pain!! If you didn’t read yesterdays post, probably read it first. Here it is! I couldn’t share the blog link until the end of the day, and Insta fought my content, too. It was pretty annoying, but is a small problem, obviously.

Yesterday, we were able to crack out all of our new purchases from Walmart and give them a whirl! These are my thoughts.

Laela’s new underwear is SUCH a win. They’re just the cheapest, George brand panties. Seven pairs for $7. They’re obviously not the highest quality, but they’re cute, and they fit her well. I should say, they don’t have a ton of extra room, so its good that she’s a skinny minnie. They’re a bit tall, which is kind of odd, but conveniently, Laela has a super tall butt (Ya, I said it) so they actually do a pretty good job of hiding her little crack, haha! She’s going to love reading this later in life…..

Wavy tried one of her squeezy pouches yesterday. She didn’t eat too much of it, but she’s still little, and she also doesn’t care as much for purees. But she tolerated it. We’ll know soon if the prunes helped with anything, but she’s still sleeping from the night. No poops since she ate from it yesterday evening.

Whats more exciting is her new cups! We got Wavy some Tommee Tippee straw cups. They’re very cute! I like the look way more than the Playtex ones we’ve gotten in the past. However, I was unsure how to encourage her to drink from it. I’m THRILLED with the result! She easily drank from it right away. She got little sip after little sip, and delivered a couple of big water burps after a while, which confirmed that she was truly getting water out of it. A whole new world for that girl! She’s so ready for it! So not only did she eat some prune puree for supper, but she drank water at her high chair, and then drank a full bottle at bedtime!! She didn’t poop yesterday but hopefully its easy today! Wish her luck!

I realized that I didn’t show you a picture of the yarn I bought yesterday, and its currently upstairs in my bedroom where baby sleeps, so you may just have to see it in the posts to come over the weekend! I’m SO excited to get my crocheting on for a few days and see what kind of damage I can do. Might make a blanket. Might make a sweater. Might make a stuffed toy. I have ideas. Last time I went away to crochet, Brady blogged for me, but I think this time I’m going to try and blog along the way. Last time, I was making Christmas gifts. This time, I’m not, so I’m more inclined to share with you 🙂 I’m printing patterns off as I type this! Eek!

Here’s hoping social media lets me share this one today! If not, get off your phone and get outside! Or just do that anyway!!
