Personally loved the blog about the cake balls, I ended up throwing mine of the floor one by one, while crying because they weren't turning out right (I didn't let them harden long enough) Have you seen the new cookbook for cake balls.

I found your blog about 10 weeks into my pregnancy (I'm now at 27 weeks) while looking for ideas and such. I've been looking at it ever since. Your family is beautiful and Cruz is just an adorable little man :) Makes me even more excited to meet my baby boy, Elijah Jude.

My cousin/roommate is about 28 weeks pregnant with her first (it's a boy) and I am going to get her one of The Vintage Pearl bracelets.

Mini meatloaves are a new favorite in our household! Cruz is so little compared to my kiddos now days. Mine are already 8, 6, almost 4, and 2! Time is flying by, enjoy him as much as you can, which it looks like you are doing very well! Take care.

Just read the past couple blogs and it's so nice to know that you are going through all the same things. My boys are 5 months and love every minute of it, but totally understand your dilemma with daycare! We found that the boys weren't sleeping at daycare so they were overly tired once they came home and not sleeping through the night. We started putting them to bed earlier and they started sleeping through the night again.StaceyWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06307028603983773970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5155071443848890518.post-82564630366333304922011-01-20T20:46:47.825-06:002011-01-20T20:46:47.825-06:00Ashley, Chelsi introduced me to your blog.
