Do you have a Zhu Zhu??

Do you have a Zhu Zhu hamster??? These must be a hot Christmas item for school aged kids this year. On Saturday, mom, dad and I took Logan to Toy's R Us at 8am so he could pick out what he wants for Christmas (he is very picky, says bye bye if he does not like a particular item (elmo, dinosaurs, etc.) and would put what he likes in the cart). When we walked in a woman walked up to us asking if we would get in line and buy her a zhu zhu hamster for her (only one per customer and they were apparently sold out at Target and Walmart), of course we did it, I am hoping the favor will be returned one day when Logan is old enough to want the "hot" item.

As I was "googling" a picture of this Zhu Zhu, I saw they were going for $66 and only cost $10, the woman said it was for her kids?!?!

Busy, Busy, Busy

Just posting a cute picture from the past week.. We have been so busy, went to Tupelo and saw Nemo on ice, went up to Booneville, and ended the week in Starkville..Hoping to post lots of pictures later..Logan and I are off to play at Pump it Up!!

Logan's Room (well almost)

This weekend was great...Lots of Christmas shopping at Mistletoe Marketplace, shopping in general (Target, the mall, Stein Mart, etc. all the favorites), and redecorated Logan's room (well almost).

I found these beautiful 8 X 10 animal pictures, 26 of them with the alphabet. I knew they would be perfect for Logan's room. At Mistletoe, they had them hanging with ribbon. Mom and I were going to try it, but knew it would be hard to hang evenly and it might be a little "girly". Mom had the bright idea to hang them with velcro. It worked out great. We then decided to use the material that went around Logan's bassinet as window decor. This material was also used to make the mobiles that were used in his nursery. Mom and Aunt Phyllis made 3 mobiles for the nursery using my Beanie Babies in October of 2007 when I was pregnant. They then came up in November to decorate the nursery. Mom also had a huge animal wall hanging made for the nursery.

As many of yall know, I only got to enjoy Logan's nursery for Logan's first 11 months..and really had not "enjoyed" it since June 8, 2008..the day I found out about the affair..Then in January of 2009 I moved out and lived with my great friend Sheri and her girls where Logan and I shared a room. I slept in a twin bed and Logan slept in his pack and play (everybody's dream right??)..SO I wanted to make this room perfect.

Logan had his " companionship time" this weekend. I asked EX to bring the mobiles and the picture...Do you think he brought them...of course not...It was for Logan, but I should have expected him to be so selfish...this was the same person who talked on the phone with his mistress 3 1/2 hours the day Logan was born. Ex drives a Jeep Commander (not exactly a smart car) and did not have room for 3 mobiles and a picture (granted when I moved home I brought a toddler bed, all my clothes, Logan's clothes and toys). So the room is almost complete (except the cute mobiles, LOGAN hanging on the wall, and the animal painting).

Hope you all have a great week. Logan and I are taking a little trip and our final destination will be Starkvegas on Friday to see the DAWGS beat NASTY NICK !!

Pump It Up

Logan and I went to Pump it Up this morning and had a blast!!! The above link should let you see him climbing up and going down the slide ( I dont know how else to share the video). For 2 hours we played and played, he was a little scared at first, but I started doing everything with him and we had a great time...I think he went up and down the slide at least 50 times...no lie, he was worn out and so thirsty..At the end of the video, I ask him if he had fun...he says no...that is his answer to EVERYTHING, you sometimes have to ignore his answers!! We will certainly be visiting this place again in the near future..

Hope everyone has a great weekend..I will be doing some Christmas shopping at Mistletoe, should be lots of fun!!

Barney...are you kidiing me???

Logan is finally watching a TV show..and it is BARNEY!! I have never encouraged him to watch TV, and I have always thought maybe he could just not see it that well with his eye problems...The other day I was flipping channels and turned it on Sesame Street, Elmo was on and Logan started saying Bye-Bye and hiding his head in my lap..poor thing he just hates ELMO.. I switched to Barney and he started dancing and clapping...He just LOVES him. I DVR the show since it comes on during his nap, but he wakes up saying Arney, Arney and hands me the remote control, I swear he watches it at least 4 times a day..I also bought him a Barney doll he sleeps with and takes him places..We love that big purple dinosaur!!

Weekend Festivities

What a great Halloween weekand Logan and I had. Friday we started out at Ray Ray's office to visit and give them a "Roar" in the halloween costume, then we went by to see granny all dressed up.

Saturday we started out trick-or-treating a little bit early (first off we go to bed pretty early and also the dawgs were on tv)..I was so worried Logan was going to be scared of all the costumes and say bye-bye to everyone, but he loved it. He did not really understand the saying "trick-or treat" but by the end of the night, he was grabbing his own candy out of the bowls. We topped off the night by eating hotdogs and rotel and cheering on the bulldogs!!

Logan had no idea Bully was next to him..Bully tried to give him a high five and he said Bye Bye. what he says when he is scared.
