Furry Patient

By -
Lucy had her surgery yesterday and we are so thankful that all went well.  I dropped her off before work and waited and waited to hear how it went.  Finally, I got a call in the afternoon that the surgery was finished and she was in recovery.  Her vet performed the eye lift procedure on both eyes, removed a wart growing in her mouth, and another wart that I noticed that morning on her side. 
Aaron picked Lucy up after work and Sarah Graves has been so sweet to her.  She told me about Lucy's bobo, signed to me that it hurt, and then would pet her so gently and kept signing that she had to be gentle.  Sarah Graves really is fond of Lucy.
Lucy has been doing very well.  She acts a little lethargic, but she hasn't complained about discomfort and seems to feel okay.  She has eaten a little.  Her biggest complaint is probably that she cannot go outside unsupervised for a while for fear that something will get in her eye.  She loves to be in her yard and enjoy a cool evening, so she is missing that. 
I am really worried that the warts are going to keep coming back in other spots, but there isn't anything that we can do about it.  I hope that this surgery helps her and we can get back to enjoying life with her.

Frozen Party Details

Like most girls her age, Sarah Graves LOVES Frozen and has known for quite some time that she wanted a Frozen birthday party. I was so excited when I saw this invitation on Etsy and she loved it too! It reminded me of an infographic. The Frozen theme was a lot of fun! There were so many things to choose from that I took to pinterest and eventually decided on the ideas that I would use for this party. I found this great Arendelle banner here on Pinterest I was so grateful that my sister did a snowflake Christmas and had tons of snowflake ornaments to hang as decorations! This party theme was a lot of fun to plan the food. Kristoff's ice cubes were made from Jell-o with an ombre effect. I found the recipe here on Pinterest. I doubled the recipe to make a 13x9 size pan of it and I made 2 13x9 pans of it. The made plenty of "ice cubes" to fill 35 cups. They turned out really cute! My parents made this Elsa cake and did a fabulous job

Cloth vs. Disposable

By -
We have mostly been planning to do disposable diapers because I felt that cloth would just be too much work when I go back to work.  Then, we saw these diapers called happy heiny's ( www.happyheinys.com ).  These looked much different than what I envisioned cloth diapers to look like.  Mom used cloth diapers with me and Jeanne', so she felt totally up for using them while Sarah Graves is at her house.  I started looking into the cost comparison and depending on what type of cloth diapers you buy, you can save anywhere from $1200 - $1700.  That is pretty attractive, not to mention knowing that you aren't filling up a landfill somewhere.  There are lots of different varieties of cloth diapers out there, but the ones that seem to be a good investment and user friendly are diapers that have snap closures, with a pocket for an insert to absorb the contents, and they are one size that adjusts as your baby grows from a newborn up to 35 pounds.  You can also purchase the traditio
