wedding countdown: 74 days

I had this really great post idea last night. It was so great, that I was writing in the post in my head and I swaer to you it was a page long. It was filled with bright ideas, and funny comments. You would have been proud...excpet now I can't remember. I have waited all day for it to hit me and I have tired and tired to remember but I can't for the life of me remember.
I have this really great idea for a TT this week. Come check it out late Wednesday early Thursday because it will be here.
Have you left me a Valentine yet? Make sure you do you have like 15 hours left. Last I checked I only had 2 and I know I am loved more than that...right?
Alanna is finally over the zombie walk. She is starting to run now, so fun.
I did not get voted a finalist at Share the Love Blog Awards...but thats okay thanks to everyone who voted for me anyways. I am still and will always be a happy blog...
We have our 1st counseling session on Saturday, wish us luck
Michigan, exspecially the SouthEast, where I live is expected to get 6-10 inches of snow tonight and tomorrow morning. Looks like me and Lindsey get a snow day.
Its times like this that I truely wish I was a SAHM, so I don't have to worry about calling in to work or driving in the messy snow.

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.
