The post below this one was supposed to be posted yesterday, but my computer was all, "Hell no. I ain't uploading any pictures today!" So, I didn't. Anyways, Grayson hates his swing. He cries every time we put him in it. Now, Ethan and Claire HATED the forward backward swinging, they loved the side to side. Unfortunately, I don't have a side to side swing. When Ethan was a baby, I was lucky enough that my cousin, Yvonne, gave me her swing when her daughter outgrew it. When we moved to Wisconsin from Arizona, I gave it over to some of our friends who were expecting. When I had Claire, my friend Jamie let me borrow her swing from her daughter. Well, we were pregnant at the same time this last time around, and I gave the swing back. So, all we had was a travel swing. Grayson hates it. He used to 3 times, in his first week of life. I think he'd be happy in a side to side swing, but they are just so darn expensive. So, Claire uses the swing for Elmo and Cookie Monster. At least someone uses the swing.
I'm currently 28, and trying to figure out where I left my sanity amid toys, animal crackers and the occasional bumps to the head. I'm married to a video game junkie and we have three beautiful (and slightly hyper) children. We just moved from our tiny Wisconsin town to a slightly larger (not by much) town in Minnesota, where everything still closes at 5 or close to it. I'm a SAHM, but not the perfect kind. My kids aren't shuttled to 12 different activities every two hours, there are dishes in my sink and my house isn't always immaculate, but I try my hardest to keep my kids healthy, happy and loved and that's what it's really all about for me. I like getting crafty with my bad self (or trying to since I'm craft challenged), learning photography with my brand spanking new DSLR camera, saving money and being totally awesome.
