Day 12: Your Vote Will Count Here

Where to begin?? Happy Birthday Max!

Hubby was home today. It was nice to just have an extra day to chillax with him & bébé. I got to sleep in for a few extra minutes this morning while he spent time with his daughter. Then we opted to do part 1 of our errands before naptime. We ran out to Tiber River for some hair products for Jamayia. Then we zipped over to Baby Bin to see about some soap, again for bébé. They were out of soap, but I did pick up a cool “colouring” book for her instead. You can colour in the pages with crayon, then wipe off with a kleenex and redo again and again and again. Then we went to a Hull’s Family Bookstore to pick up something. And since we were in the area and had a few moments, we stopped in to see Auntie Carolyn at work. She has pics of baby on her desktop, and so she’s already popular at the office. I’m sure she’ll be signing autographs next time we pop in to say hello.

While baby napped, I made so awesome wraps. We got some chicken (breast, Amanda, okay??) strips and some flavoured wraps. We used either guacamole or hummus as a base, then added onions, cukes & tomatoes. Tops with a bit of honey mustard sauce (it came with the strips) and either some Asian Sesame or Ranch dressing. Yummmm-Oooo!! Doesn’t that just make you want one right now?!

Post-nap, it was back out again for a couple more errands, on this side of town. Stopped off at Safeway to make a return. Then off to Toys R Us to investigate a few necessities. Now being in a house, and living in the basement, we need a couple baby gates. She also needs a new high chair. Due to space limitations and aesthetics, we’ve narrowed down the choice to two: the Fisher Price Space Saver vs. this Safety 1st competitor. The first one looks nicer, I think. Next up–new car seat. With her winter jacket on, Jamayia’s getting a little too bulky for her infant car seat. Yet, she’s still under 20 lbs, so she needs to be rear-facing. So, we’ve gotta find one of those convertible options, that’ll hopefully last us until she can sit like a big person in the car. Again, the two options are This one vs That one. This week, “that” one is on sale.

Well, this post isn’t a running advertising spot on purpose. I just started by adding a few links, and decided to see how many links I can actually post here. Made for an interesting challenge because I wanted to find the right sites to show my loyal reader-fans pics of whatever I’m talking about. Please let me know.

And why do I still not have any suggestions for the new name for this blog?
