Life As I Know It: But God, you are still invited....of course.

But God, you are still invited....of course.

Chris and I fired our preacher. Well not the preacher we would see every Sunday if we went to Church, but the preacher who we hired to marry us. So not only did he want us to read books that were written in the 1970's he also wanted us to take tests and quizzes about our personality and temperament, one test was 180 questions and the other 150. Chris had, had it. He said either I fire him nicely or he would do it not so nice. (have I mentioned the preacher was my dads cousins husband?) So I decided to do it nicely. But in return I did not get a nice ending to our conversation...Well I guess not all gods peoples can be nice... I feel less stressed. I did enjoy the counseling, but the one book talked about in order to please your husband and make him happy a wife should always be happy and look her best...ummmm, I like to look nice for Chris but I felt the book was for the Brady bunch and not us. Anyways, since it was done Chris said he is happier, because everything was stressing him out. I understand where he was coming from...he barely has enough time for us let alone reading and test taking. If Chris and I don't know each other by now, then what are we doing getting married? I think that with our without the tests, we will make a happy married couple.

I agree! And it's a shame that the preacher you let go couldn't end it on a positive note...isn't that their role in life? To try to provide peace and guidance, even when it means you are not getting guidance from them? It doesn't make sense, and it stinks that it was a family friend, but, life will go on for him! And it certainly is for you and Chris. Glad he is feeling less stressed and hope you are too!!

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.
