Clap, Clap..Clap Your Hands!

Marissa has learned how to clap!  We've been playing Pat-a-cake and she seems to have caught on.  I love watching her learn new things.  We are still working on waving and Peek-a-boo!

Today my friend Sophie came over for a cloth diaper tutorial.  Hopefully I was able to answer any questions she had and is a little more comfortable with moving forward into the cloth diaper world.  I counted my diapers today and I think I have almost 50.  My addiction is worse than initially realized.  It's all for a good cause, right?  And we *might* have two in cloth at some point, so I'll need that many.  Right?  Right??  I'm trying to justify my addiction, can you tell?  I got on a custom Working At Home Moms (WAHM) cloth diaper list.  I'm hoping to find the perfect diaper for Marissa's 1st birthday! :)

Today has been a lazy Sunday.  Lazy Sunday's usually involve Food Network and me running to the grocery store to get some goodies to satisfy my cravings.  Today it looks like it's buttermilk onion rings and air heads that have my mouth watering.  MmmMmm!

Marissa is still saying "Dada" a lot.  It's her favorite (only) word and she says it all the time.  It's truly adorable, though I am still slightly jealous that she hasn't said Mama yet.  I have now had two people tell me an old wives tale...

The old wives tale goes that if your first child's first word is "Dada" that means your next child will be a boy.  If your first child's first word is "Mama" then your next child will be a girl.

The cool part about this is we will get to put this old wives tale through the test!  Our friend's Mickey and Jeremy have a little boy, Hunter.  His first word was Mama.  Since Marissa's first word was Dada, we will see if our next child will be a boy.  I know Mickey and Jeremy would love to have a little girl and we would like to have a little boy.  So time will tell if this old wives tale holds any truth.  I know it's silly and most old wives tales are just that, tales, but it's still fun to think about!

Yesterday I took Marissa to the park in our community.  I took a few pictures of her swinging and I will post them later.

....Off to the grocery store!

Happy Spring!
