Somehow during the blog transfer, this post was deleted. So I thought I would post it again since it was one of my first posts! It made me kinda sad watching it...Little Brother was so tiny! Has your baby ever known exactly what she wanted...she just couldn't communicate it to you? Perhaps she screamed and screamed until you finally realized what could be wrong--sound familiar?

August 10, 2011 by Jenae — 19 Comments

“Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” Sensory Play

Big Brother's favorite book at the moment is Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. We read it at least twice a day. If you've ever read this book, you know how long it is...it is quite the time investment! I think the reason he loves this book so much is because it combines make-believe with one of his favorite interests these days...the weather! I've been racking my brain on a way to … [ Keep reading… ]
