Baby updates

Baby is 7 months old now...she is getting so big! It seems like every day she is doing something new.  She sits up, she says da-da (BUT she doesn't know what it means, so I don't think that it counts as a word), and just two nights ago....she started to CRAWL!!! Now I need to baby-proof the apartment...she wants to get her cute, little hands on everything!

Poo-Pourri, anyone?

Spritz the bowl

Before you go...

and no one else

will ever know!

A friend told me about Poo-pourri, and I just had to try it....It's great!! The new staple in our bathrooms!

My (maybe) new hobby...

One night last week, I decided that I wanted to go for a run. For most people, that doesn't sound so strange, but it's weird for me, because I don't run. I don't spin. I don't do yoga. I don't exercise at all.  But that night I put on my shorts and a tank top, and I ran to the World Trade Center and back. 

This morning, I wanted to run again.  This time I ran to the water by Battery Park, and back.  It's not far, but I feel good.  So maybe this will be my new nice-weather activity. Any advice on how to stay motivated?? I tend to get tired of things pretty easily...

Was it for baby...or mommy??

Yesterday we took baby to the zoo.  We went with one of my best-friends, her husband, and their 9 month old daughter.  We all had a great time, but at some point during the day, us parents realized that while the babies were enjoying themselves, they weren't really getting anything out of the zoo.  But us adults sure did!!! As they say...happy mommies (and daddies) make happy babies...so while the babies are babies, we're still going to go out and enjoy everything there is. Babies can come along, of course!
