B.O.R.I.N.G....LOL

Well I think today was the most boring day we've had since I started this blog. lol. The only thing that really happened was that I was talking to my sister online and she suggested using a playpen for Emmy, but every time I had put her in it before she would just cry to get out so I put it away in the back of her closet. But since she's older now and sitting up much better I decided to give it another shot. So I pulled it out and padded it with tons of pillows around the sides and I was surprised, she played in there for quite a while. I took her out to feed and change her and then she went back in again, so I guess it wasn't a complete waste of money! Dad bought it for me when Emmy was born. They don't have playpens anymore (that I know of), they are called Play yards now. They are a smaller version of a playpen and instead of being square they are rectangular and on the top they come with a set up to make it like a bassinet, then when they reach 15 pounds they out grow it and use can use it as a playpen. So that's what I used for Emmy the first few months after she came home(even though she preferred to sleep in her car seat right next to me in the living room, lol) But it had the play yard set up in our bedroom when she came home and I think she would have liked it better if I was sleeping in the bedroom with her, but I couldn't sleep in our bed without Louie there, way too depressing and weird. So yes, that's the story of the play yard, so glad I am getting use out of it now because I never thought I would. The play yard is also on wheels so I just put it up against the wall in the other room when she's done with it, it's convenient. So yeah, anyway, can you tell how EXCITING my life is??? HAHA! Truthfully, I could talk about baby products all day. YES! I am now one of those annoying moms, LOL. When Emmy's E.I. nurse comes (she has a 2 year old and is pregnant) I am always recommending things. She says every week she comes I introduce her to the newest, coolest thing, lol. I just tell her the trick is to look at the reviews of the products on the store website before you buy it. That always helps, A LOT! (that goes for anything though, not just baby stuff!). I was glad I was able to catch up on my "18 kids and counting" show though, I still can't believe there are people out there with 18 KIDS! And get this! The mother doesn't have gray hair! I know! =) Although one of Louie's uncle's has 34 kids! lol. (2 moms) But anyway! That's about all for today. I am also going to try to take some video soon too, so I can post it on here for you all. Thanks for reading! (if your not sleeping from this boring update!! lol) Love you, Lindsay

P.S. I haven't sent out invites for Emmy's birthday yet, so if you haven't got one it's not because you're not invited! LOL and to all my family in Maine who can't come, I know you wish you could I will post pictures for you, promise! =)
