The Party~

These are Hannah's friends from school

This is Hannah's cake.

This is what Hannah wore to her party

I put more pics on flickr if you're interested in seeing more. The weather was nice for the party. It was about 69 degrees and sunny...thats considered nice in Michigan also keep in mind we have had about 9 days straight of rain and cool weather. The party turned out so good. The girls Hannah invited from school came and then she had all our family there. They played on the playground at the park and we ate pizza and cake...YUM. Let me tell you...this little girl is so spoiled. She got some really nice things. Throwing a party is so exausting. Even Hannah said she was tired tonight when she went to bed. So all in all the day went well. I sure hope Hannah had fun..she said she did.

PS: Alanna is doing better, but she was still a little under the weather today.

The Benefits of Mobiles for Infants

When choosing the right mobile for baby cribs, it is important to note that not all mobiles are created equal. All mobiles are designed to help keep your baby busy, but not all are designed to stimulate the development of your child’s mind. When choosing the right mobile, there are a few key factors that every parent should keep in mind.

Many mobiles are designed to be easily matched with a nursery décor. This means soft colors including pastels and other unsaturated hues. While they may look nice, this is not ideal in helping develop your baby’s visual senses. Infants have difficulty seeing soft colors, which means that these mobiles will not be as stimulating as others. When choosing a mobile, look for models that have attachments that are white, black, red, and one or more bright colors. Your child will have a much easier time seeing bright colors and it will help greatly as your child’s vision develops.

A good developmental mobile should also have several moving parts and points of articulation. Mobiles with attachments that allow for more rotations and movements will help your child with spatial relations. Not only that, but these mobiles will also engage your infant for longer periods of time. Even a child can decipher simple movement patterns and become bored, so complex patterns will help them stay occupied longer.

Lastly, look for a mobile that has incorporates audio as well as visual elements. Many mobiles on the market today come equipped with a music box to help entertain, stimulate, and relax your child. The high-end models even let you choose between stimulating or soothing music to help either engage or help relax your baby. The combination of visual and audio elements is the best way to help with the development of an infant and music especially is an essential part of developing a healthy and well adjusted child.
