Having a baby is a very special event.  I know that although I had baby number one, when I found out we were expecting again, I wanted to know what all was out there.  Things seem to change so much and I wanted to know what I had been missing out on in the past.  Actually, a friend of mine is expecting now and she posted on facebook asking for any suggestions on "must have" items. She is also on baby number two, but again... times they are a changing!!! One thing I wish I had done when we were expecting was to attend a baby and child expo. There is so much information to see and learn about.   That will not be an issue for you, just keep reading to see what I am talking about.   ...

Broxton with Snoopy We have been waiting for The Peanuts Movie to be released.  Do you know how hard it is to try to plan a movie night at the theater with a baby?  I grew up with the Peanuts comic strips... and of  course we love the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, to know a movie was coming out was pretty awesome.  I was thrilled when we had the chance to meet a few key characters from The Peanuts Movie. ( You can read more about it here ...)  That being said, I was so excited when The Peanuts Movie was finally released, but it was so much cooler when I found out we would be having a Peanuts Movie Night.

You know how to tell you have sure enough reached maturity?  When you get super excited when you receive new sheets!  It was like it was my birthday or something, I was so thrilled to get them!!!!  Not even joking!   While I do enjoy most of you (being honest here)  I am not going to invite any of you into my bedroom.  That being said, I do want to tell you about the new sheets we received. (Again, love ya, but not bringing you in to see them...)   I  have been looking for new sheets for our bed for some time now, but King sheets are no joke.

When Broxton was born, I was a first time mom trying to figure things out while my husband was off fighting in a war.  I was lucky to have my parents to help me, but lets be real... Things change so much from day to day, did I really expect them to have ALL the answers when their "baby" (my brother) was approaching his twenties?  I think I did pretty good, but that doesn't mean I know it all now for Savannah.   I know with Broxton I waited for the doctor to tell me to do most things. Not everything, but introducing foods and the sippy cup were most certainly waited for.  Once I was given the go ahead on baby food, I was going to let him try it all.  Hello world!!! Lots of different brands and sever...
