I love back to school shopping. Picking out school supplies and new clothing is one of my favorite things to do in August. As I am going to the stores looking for things, I usually get so frustrated at the clothing selection for boys. It seems like the girls get all the cute, adorable outfits, and all the boys get are character t-shirts and jeans. When I find handsome, adorable boys … [Read more...]
I am not sure where TJ fell in love with bikes. One day he starting telling us that he wanted a TJ bike and he kept saying it every day since. We were looking at getting him a trike, when our neighbors gave us a little bike with training wheels perfect for TJ. He is a little too small to reach the pedals so he loves to push it around the yard and our driveway. Ever since we got it he has … [Read more...]
As many of you know, I was really sad when TJ's big boy bed came. I loved his nursery and I don't want him to grow up so fast (I think I need another baby in the house). When the bed came we realized that we would need to update the nursery and make more little boy and not baby boy. TJ chose robots as his theme, and I found a lot of cute things to go into the room. Here is an adorable robot … [Read more...]
Summer is a time full of fun outdoor activities. I have pulled TJ out of daycare for the summer, so we need to keep busy. The weather lately has been fantastic which means we have been spending a lot of our time outside. TJ has been helping me with the garden and taking care of all the plants and flowers around our house. We have been loving blowing bubbles and playing on the Step2 swing and … [Read more...]
TJ has been more and more interested in learning through cartoons and games. He loves watching Disney Jr. on television and he is picking up things from the shows that he watches. In fact the other day he had this dialog with his uncle: TJ and Cousin L: "Crackers" (to uncle) Uncle: "Okay, you both want some crackers. What is the magic word?" Cousin L: "Please" TJ … [Read more...]
TJ is a very skinny little guy. I am not sure what happened since he was such a chunkster when he was a baby, but he is very little. We have a hard time finding pants that fit him. He needs the length, but a lot of the pants that fit him in the legs don't fit him in the waist. Dapper Snappers has made this problem a whole lot easier. Dapper Snappers are toddler belts that snap onto the … [Read more...]

Transitioning TJ from baby foods to solid foods was a nightmare. I can't remember ever being so frustrated in my life. If you read my blog you know that TJ isn't much of an eater. He is little and really only likes to eat chicken fingers and corn. Finding foods that he likes is a gigantic chore, mainly because he won't try anything new. I want what is best for him, but it is really very … [Read more...]
I love pediped! TJ wears his first pair of pediped shoes almost everyday. They are classic shoes that coordinate with many of TJ's outfits. I love that I can throw pediped shoes in the wash-machine to clean them, because lets face it, 16 month olds get dirty and drop a lot of stuff on them. Well, pediped is back with their new Fall/Winter Collection just in time for back to school … [Read more...]
