Momma gotta new ride

The whole family went to the car dealer to pick out a family car. Who knew a two door car and a car seat wouldn't work?.? The car salesman was brave enough to ride with me during the test drive. I selected a 4 door VW Jetta. I wanted something a little sporty with plenty of storage. Babies come with a lot of accessories to cart around. We did however have an issue with the floor mats. Apparently not all cars come with them. My comment was, " I wouldn't buy shoes without shoelaces." The car has floor mats. I also would recommend cars come standard with floor mats, radar detectors, and snow scrapers. What do you think? It could start a new trend. Shoot me an email if you are looking for a car and I will hook you up.

G3 and Aunt Laura

Aunt Laura was in town and we all had lunch.

Three Thermometers

G2 had a cold. It took a week for me to be contaminated. It was only inevitable that the baby would catch it. I was hacking over the poor guy as her nursed. We went through three thermometers. The first two took too long and I didn't think they worked correctly. I sent the husband out to buy a third thermometer. He bought the ThermoFocus. This is the Cadillac of all thermometers. It takes the baby's temperature with a laser light. There is no need to insert it into any holes. You can also check the temp of the room, the bath tub, and food. We had to watch an instructional DVD to figure out how to work it. We watched it three times. We gave the baby Tylenol and used the nasal aspirator ( aka the booger snatcher). He seems to be fine today. I am still sick. To add further torture to the stringent breastfeeding routine, I must have a cold with no medication. Meanwhile the husband is downing the NyQuil and sleeping peacefully.

First trip to the zoo

We had are first trip to the zoo. Emily and Ella joined us for a play date. We also went to McDonalds for the first time. It was a great trip. The zoo was crowded. Doesn't anybody work? We bought several books at the zoo.

G3 and the big bear 8weeks

Drinkability

I am not sure if G3 has been watching the budweiser commercials. He keeps going back and forth from breast milk straight from the tap or pumped breast milk. Its kind of like the taste great less filling. Draft or bottled.

We had an uneventful weekend. G2 is sick with the cold/flu. He has been laying around like he is dying all weekend. I have been busy using lysol on everything. I hope G3 does not get this.
