LOST: One Stuffed Lion with attached Pacifier

My, what big feet you have.

Elle and I went to do a little shopping yesterday evening. I had been really struggling with not being able to get back into my pre-pregnancy jeans (because everyone told me how easy it would be) and have been really watching what I've been eating and hitting the gym. Matt told me he was surprised I would risk my health (wasn't really, but whatever) to save $100 to not buy new jeans. Check mate.

So, the search began. We went to Target in Fayetteville and I found 2 pairs of jeans on clearance for $6.24. God provides, no matter how small. Then we went to Kohls for some denim capris. I found 2 pairs, plus a few other things and got to use my 20% coupon a day early (thanks store manager Melissa). Some where in the store, Elle through her pacifier out of the stroller. I called the store this morning and no one had turned it in. I'll check back. We made it through 7 1/2 months with out losing something. I think that's pretty good, I was sure it would have happened before now.

We have two of the WubbaNub pacifiers, the other is a giraffe. Her diaper had leaked the night before in the crib and I wanted to make sure the giraffe had a date with the washing machine before she got him back...so bedtime, no WubbaNub, uh oh. A single pacifier in the crib wasn't working well, so we ended up cutting one of the stuffed animals off her Jumperoo and Matt sewed a pacifier to it. Turned out pretty well, she went right to sleep after that.

I'm hoping Lion will turn up at Kohl's and I can go pick him up.

She has really been interested in the tags on things like the boppy and stuffed animals. We have a taggie blanket that was given to us as a gift, but it's just a little too big to be a toy, so today we made these:






I made the white one first. and the ribbons are a little too long. The brown one turned out much better. At least she has something else to chew on.
