They are better for active toddlers anyways…I have been using a Jan Sport backpack on our outings for some time now, its just easier to run around with Jason while we are out without a bag on my shoulder…or wherever I parked the stroller. Brian was nice enough to put this lovely backpack( In my favorite print Yellow Bird) under the tree for me. Its relatively small and lightweight, but with a lot of storage capacity and different pockets. I can easily fit all Jason’s and my own stuff, and find everything I need in a second. Plus, it’s very comfortable to carry, and best of all hands FREE! I’ve been using this bag on a daily basis and I love it!
He also got me this Cool Keeper in Mediterranean White. When ever I leave for a morning outing, I bring Jason’s lunch. It saves money, but I know he’ll eat it and if he doesn’t eat and falls asleep on the way home then he wants lunch and not a nap.
I feel so incredibly blessed to have so much love in my life. There were some lovely presents under the tree for me, but the best gift Brian has ever given me is the chance to stay home with Jason, despite our inability to “afford” it. Here are some shots of the big day:
New Shoes, New Kitchen
New Tools
Play Dough with Dad
Helping Sew
More Help
Hugs

I’ve taken a long break from blogging, I had a hard time dealing with Isis’ loss and sort of forced out two posts after my tribute to Isis post. I was visiting her post any chance I could during the day and now its only every so often. I didnt want to have it leave the main page. I fixed that by giving it its own category.
Brian took Jason and I to the pet store to check out their kittens and we came home with TWO cats! Maxine “Max” is the 3 month old kitten and Sissy is the black teenager (8 months). We considered renaming Sissy, but she took time adjusting to our crazy house and responded to her name so we kept it. Jason loves them both and is very sweet with them. He carries Max all around very gently and Max just sort of goes limp. The two were fast friends. Sissy isnt as easy to capture on film, she is either sleeping in the den part of her cat tree or running around full speed ahead. It feels good to have cats in the house again.
