I lovelovelove their bubble bath!! It makes lots and lots of bubbles and it even comes with a wand to blow bubbles in the tub. It can't get no more fun than that! And the stuff smells incredible, too.
I've been trying out BabyGanics eczema cream, too. I've had a little patch of red, itchy skin on both of my legs since March. It showed up right around the time Larry was sent to the transitional center too early and we were under a tremendous amount of stress and that's what I thought caused it. Well, he's been in Quitman for over three months now and my leg rash is still there. I have tried everything that I could find over-the-counter. Cortisone creams, Benadryl cream and spray, even Aveeno, and nothing was helping. I picked up a tube of BabyGanics Bye Bye Dry cream last Friday at Target and the rashes are so much better!! I think the calendula in the bubble bath is helping, too. Yay!!
Tabbie Hoffman has a new thing that he likes to do. He likes to lay on a towel on the sink and put his paw in the water. It is SO cute!!
I finally got my 13WMAZ coffee mug that I won June 18th as their Facebook Fan of The Day. I only had to call them twice about it!
We had a birthday party for Jessi yesterday at Mama and Daddy's house. Ricky and Audra fixed barbecue chicken, baked potatoes with butter, sour cream, cheese and bacon, baked beans, salad and cake and ice cream. Ami brought fudge brownies and we just had a feast!
Here's the birthday girl and her baby girl getting ready to blow out the candles!

Look at that chubby little thigh! I think even the fishies were thinking, "Nom nom nom!"!!
Yep, Larry's been in Quitman for over three months now and he's still doing great, amazed every day by the world on this side of the fence. An awful lot has changed since 1976. He got his drivers "learner's" permit already and he's going Tuesday for the actual driving test. He starts to school next month and is already dreading that algebra class. I told him to just take what he could and we'd take college algebra together when he gets home. I have to take it, too, to finish my degree classes so we might as well suffer through it together. :) He's got a painting/remodeling weekend job lined up, too. I thought that was hilarious because I have a painting/remodeling job lined up for him, too!! I kinda have my heart set on this IKEA kitchen. :) Everything is pretty much rocking right along. Mama and Daddy are giving Larry a recliner as a welcome home gift and that was the last thing on my list so I think I'm done. Just waitin' on January!
I finally broke down and got a smartphone today. I don't like signing contracts and the idea of paying $450 for a cell phone was just ridiculous to me so I got a cheap Samsung with a prepay package and so far, so good. It was a little hairy trying to get everything working like I wanted it but now that all that's done, I think I'm going to like it. It's a heck of a lot better than the 5-year-old old school phone I did have. At least this one will have signal wherever I go!!
Baby stuff is great. I might just keep on using it when these little years are over. You're going to have to make a longer to-do list. I would have thought you had a smart phone already, but I'm glad you held out. Mike and I might be the last people on Earth without the--even our parents have them!
