Well!! It's official!!!

Bitty baby is a GIRL!!!! I'm so excited!!! It's been so long since I've dressed a baby in bows and lace!! So, my little tiebreaker is going to fill this house with more girls than boys!

Now, to convince dh that the name he wants isn't good enough, lol.

I made baby food!

You'd think that it wouldnt take me 6 years and 4 kids to figure out that its totally easy to MAKE baby food. Really all you do is steam it until its soft, puree and freeze it. You can season it for older babies too.

Tonight I made 3 trays of baby food. Apricots (thanks to my parents very fruitful tree), bananas and pears. How much money do you think I just saved myself not buying the jarred stuff at the grocery store??

Now I just have to test it on the baby...so far all he's had is 1 helping of rice cereal....

Boys, Boys everywhere!!

My poor daughter is surrounded by little boys. 3 brothers at home. Each and every last one of her cousins are boys. She's even the only girl in her Sunday school class.

Her grandmas just LOVE having one little girl to cuddle, love and spoil. I'm sure it helps that my little girl is QUITE the little princess!! She loves anything pink and girly....ballet, ponies, princesses, dress up....

This morning in the car, on the way to our t-ball game, my sweet little girl said to me "Mom, wouldn't it be great if I could have a little sister?"

Sure it would be great, but what is the likelihood that she would realistically end up with a little sister and not a FOURTH brother??

I asked her to cross her fingers that someday she gets a cute little girl cousin to be pals with, but until then she'll have to love up her brothers.
