This weekend I'm hosting another Shaklee Open House. Last month it was at my mom's and it was a combination Open House with a Homemade Gourmet rep and a friend who paints her own photo frames for magnetic surfaces. On Saturday it'll be only MOI represented and the turnout should be great. I invited several neighborhood ladies that I've met a few times so hopefully we'll all get to know each other a little better too. In addition I sent out a mass email and a few flyers to people who don't (for some reason) yet have email! Amazing... We'll see how it goes!
Before I mentioned that I'm no longer nursing my daughter who is now 19 months. We stopped about three weeks ago. I think if I let her nurse today she'd do it, but I know I have more energy now that I'm not making myself available to her in that way. It's cute and a little sad that she still thinks about nursing, if only briefly, so I wonder how she'll cope with watching her baby brother nurse in December.?. My mom asked me if I'd let Claire nurse and I honestly hadn't thought about it. It seems complicated, not to mention tiring! I remember how much time little babies spend nursing and I don't think I'd ever leave the couch or rocking chair if I nursed two kids so I don't think we'll go there again. I did enjoy nursing Claire and obviously she enjoyed it too, but it's nice to have a small break (and wear a regular bra for a change) before the next baby comes!
My husband and I are trying to decide on a name for our boy. Any suggestions? His middle name will be Raymond after my grandpa who died in March of 2003. Our last name starts with a K so the last two intials are _RK. Please help!
This Sunday I'm helping to organize a baby shower for our friends who just adopted a baby boy. He arrived six weeks early and caught them way off guard. They had to fly to the other side of the country, then wait until he got heavy and independent enough to travel. Our church is great. They've given our friends lots of support and they are anxious to meet the new little guy. Claire learned quickly at our first visit with them that she has to be very gentle when approaching him or a big person who might be holding him. At our second and third visits with him it was clear she'd learned fast!
