Friday Favorite: Gymboree Bubbles!

My reader has been full of bubbles, and it feels like spring, so here is my favorite :)

We first saw these bubbles in a mommy & baby yoga class, and I drove right over to Gymboree to get them.  One little blow sends up tons of tiny, little, sugar-based bubbles.  It's awesome  :)

tiny bubbles... make me happy :)

I was planning to mop the floor anyway.

One of the few times he actually put the right end to his mouth.

Only JD can get it to make big bubbles.  It must be his drool mixed with the bubble juice  :)

Ava wants to play, too!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday: I Love This Cookbook!

Busy People's Low-Fat Cookbook!

I took these 6 things...

and turned it into yummy Mexican Goulash in 15 minutes.

JD loved it, and O was drooling  :)

Bright Starts Comfort and Harmony Cradling Bouncer

While Hubby was away last week, I stayed at my parents' for a couple days.  Even though they have a crib, toys, and highchair for JD, there was still a ridiculous amount of packing to do for the boys. (I was reminded that before they were born, the dog used to have an overnight bag. Now she's lucky if I remember her leash and food.)  My mom asked what else she could get for their house that would be a big help as far as future visits.  We decided on sippy cups and Little People Blocks for JD (and they also got him a Cozy Coupe to tool around in- but that's just them spoiling) and something to put O down in when he wasn't in a carrier.  Mom picked up Bright Starts Comfort and Harmony Cradling Bouncer, and it was a hit!  

Yes, we are still loving the sock-ons!

The adjustable toy bar was within his reach, and we spent a lot of time watching him successfully grab at the giraffe.  It reclines in 2 positions, it's 7 songs have volume control, and it automatically bounces itself if he's being too lazy to kick his legs!  This is yet another baby item that I wish came in adult size.  It looks super cozy!
