Kyla had gotten into the bunch of bananas that I'd purchased at the store that day and decided to help herself. What a mess, but oh so funny! She'd peeled 2 of them and wasn't wasting any time!

Going Bananas Over...Bananas
On the way home from work last week, Bryan suddenly looked in the rear-view mirror and started laughing really hard. What was so funny? Take a look and see what I saw when I peered over Kyla's carseat.

Amazon Mom
I made a great discovery this week. Like when I discovered that I could cook bacon in the oven...only better. You know you're a Mommy when finding a great deal on diapers makes your day! :)
Of course, I use cloth diapers when we're home, which saves quite. But I'm not so dedicated to cloth diapering that I use them away from home. For one reason, Kyla is a petite little girl, and the Fuzzi Bunz give her booty a definite bubble shape. For another, well...two words. Toddler poop.
A friend had just told me she orders her diapers and wipes from Amazon.com. So I went online to check it out. I discovered that by joining Amazon Mom (totally free!) and by signing up for Subscribe and Save (products are automatically sent to you at regular intervals [up to 6 months] unless you tell them not to or change your order), I can get Luvs diapers for 11 cents per diaper (compared to 17 cents/diaper at Wal-Mart)! Plus, you get FREE 2-day shipping and FREE returns!
There are other perks as well. By signing up for Amazon Mom, you are automatically enrolled in Amazon Prime for 3 months. For every $25 of baby stuff you buy, you get another month, up to a total of 12. With Amazon Prime, you get FREE 2-day shipping on every order, regardless of what you order or how much it is.
Told ya. It's a great deal.

Beans, Beans, and More Beans
Canning green beans is a bit more challenging this year with a very active toddler in the house. Beans on top of the table? No problem for our little monkey!
The first time I canned beans this year, I left the kitchen momentarily and returned to find Kyla atop the table re-sorting my bowls of beans (snapped and un-snapped).

Bubbles!
One of Kyla's new favorite words is "Bubbles!" She spots bubbles everywhere...on my hands when I am giving her a bath, at the top of the grape juice in the pitcher, in the soapy dishwater, and many, many other ways. So when I saw a little toy for making bubbles today, I had to get it for her.
I think "Bubbles" replaced "Puppy" for her most-spoken word today! And that's saying something!!
On Saturday, we took Kyla's pacifier away. What a mean Mommy I am, taking away her bestest friend like that! She's done great during the day and in the car, for the most part. But boy, oh boy, nights have been bad! For the first few nights, she cried for a good hour or more before eventually falling asleep. Tonight, finally, she went to sleep with barely a peep! Yay!
Me, being the mean Mommy I am, checked on her the other night about 1:00 in the morning. I had to get my camera and return to her room on tip-toes to capture the way she was sleeping, sippie cup and all. :)
