It's Hump Day!

Yes ladies were almost through the week!!!!:o)

I have to share a story, on the way into work I was on the phone with my sister in law and she was telling me that a gentleman she knows just had a second baby and that his wife will be staying at home leaving her career, that's right career! not a job (I was an inch away from leaving my job to take care of my baby, so I understand that), to take care of the children. And for some odd reason, he believes his wife will be able to be superwoman and he will come home to a clean, relaxed home everyday now...............guess what? Rude awakening!!!!! His wife will be doing good if she is able to keep herself clean and the children too! and Relaxation...buddy that's out the door. What I suggest is that he comes home with a hug, kiss, a thank you and a 5 hour drink! lol...

Fashion Tip of the day!
Ladies is Fall time!!!! so you know what that means, bring out the boots!! To spice up those boots add some tights to them, they come in all types of patterns and if you're a little bold, try tights with color! But don't go over the top with the bold, keep it unique but classy too.

Baby Tip
How to get the little one to sleep? Set predictable and consistent nap routines. Pick out the times of the day that you are most tired, for example 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Lie down with your baby at these times every day for about a week to get your baby used to a daytime nap routine. This also sets you up to get some much-needed daytime rest rather than be tempted to "finally get something done" while baby is napping. Babies who have consistent nap routines during the day are more likely to sleep longer stretches at night. http://www.askdrsears.com/topics/fussy-baby/31-ways-get-your-baby-sleep-and-stay-asleep

Marriage Tip - how to keep it spicy?
Listen if you're like me at this point you're good to get ten minutes of alone time. Try meeting each other on your lunch break for a little "cuddle time". If you have an hour, take 30 minutes to eat and make take the other 30 minutes to go for a short walk in the park, and if you can...try not to talk about the baby so much!

Also, I found this quick and simple recipe and it's good!
