*Something I haven't participated in for a while is the Thursday Thirteen. I thought I would honor the craziness in my life lately...

13 Things Chris called to ask me while I was at work and he stayed home with the girls...I'm not joking either

1. 10:11am- Where are the diapers?

2. 10:16am- Where areAlanna's comfy clothes?

3.10:27am- Can I use the pack and play, so she doesn't crawl all over?

4. 10:48am- Can I take Alanna's hair out of the hair tie?

5. 11:23am- What should I feed Alanna for lunch?

6. 11:25am-What should I feed Hannah for lunch?

7. 12:01pm-Can I eat that microwave thinging you take for lunch?

8. 12:25pm- Is it time for Alanna's nap?

9. 12:48pm- Alanna is sleeping.

10.2:30pm- Alanna woke up.

11. 2:36pm-Alanna's poop leaked through her pants, should I change them?

12. 3:04pm- When will you be home?

13. 5:30pm-Can you stop to get take out? I am exhausted!

Some times, you just have to love them for ALL their faults.

Great list ~ sounds like my father in law when he watches SIL's kids. Can you believe this man actually didn't see a 3 year old with a red crayon drawing all over the wall RIGHT NEXT TO HIM?!? Not in a different room...or on the sly...just drawing right next to him on the wall. hehe

Have a great Thursday!

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.
