~I'm obsessed with Carter's new fall stuff. My baby wears a lot from Carter's. They make clothes that make me smile, and the deals are just delicious. I have yet to visit the Carter's store here in Denver that is 14 miles away. I think I'll be taking a trip next week. They should pay me for this gushing, no?
~Forever 21 cheapness. I love. I bought 3 pairs of earrings for $3.80 total. We waited in a long line and Juan leans and whispers to me, do you realize that the average age of people in this line is 12 years old? Yes, yes I do.
~Speaking of me and Juan. You wonder how having a baby is going to change the couple. I wondered. We are still silly and fun and we've stepped up a notch on that ladder of love. But I will say this, we feel like grown ups now. Before it was, we'll manage, both of us could live in a cardboard box if we had to (ok maybe I was kidding myself even then). Now... this is real life here. We've got a tiny human being to support and offer a good life. And poor Juan, so much pressure on his shoulders. I love him.
~And now to add more pressure on Juan, I've decided I want to live in a neighborhood where the trees canopy over the whole street. All shade. You know those scenes in the movies where people are racing their bikes down the canopied streets. I want that. It is a long-term desire. I can wait 3 years. I kid.
~Last night Juan was playing with Amelia and mentioned that she was laughing with him. I missed it. Then today she was playing on the floor and I picked her up and sat her on my lap facing me and she just started chuckling. I kept smiling but then the tears came as they too often do these days. She was just so dang cute! And then she continued to laugh it up. She thinks it's funny that her mom's a basket-case.
~Ok now really random. I've heard you lose a lot of hair after you have a baby. And I thought, ok to make up for the zero amount of hair I lost while pregnant. But people, this is a lot of hair. I'm afraid it is never going to end and I am going to end up bald! Please share when it is going to stop or if there's any treatment/vitamin I can take to keep my already thin hair in tact. Gracias.

lol yeah the hair loss sucks. I've got a ton of these little 'baby hairs' sticking straight up now since they're growing back. Just keep eating well and taking a prenatal, it'll stop soon.
I am not sure when it stops, but it does! I still feel like my hair hasn't completely gotten back to its original thickness, but I don't care! I wear it in a pony tail most of the time since my little guy tries to yank out what I have left!
I want that street too. With a house that has a wrap around porch and a swing. And a white picket fence. And a huge yard. And an open floor plan with a huge kitchen and media room. With hardwood floors. And a huge california king bed so all of my kids can climb in to watch a movie... Ben has a lot of pressure on his shoulders too because I want this in like five years... =)
woo, I love the canopy of trees too. Beautiful! Im sad you didnt post a video of Millie chuckling. I want to be in on that cuteness too! About the balding... my hair falls out by the hand-fulls every time I shower now!!! It never did this with Ella. So I feel ya sister.
I agree with the others. I don't remember when it stopped either, maybe after I stopped breastfeeding, but it does eventually and your hair returns. I was pretty freaked out too, but it's normal. The pressure that comes with this little ones is crazy, but they are so darn cute. They make up for it. I'm glad to hear Amelia's laughing that is really fun (until she starts laughing at you when you tell her no, James is there now) Though I still make it a goal to make James laugh at least once everyday. I think it keeps us both sane :D
p.s. sorry about the crazy comment I had a lot to say :D
She is SO cute Cami! I just can't get over it! I hope you are loving Denver. We miss you guys.
I feel the same way about my hair....I'm hoping it returns to normal sometime (or better than normal would be even better!!) I love those canopied streets!!
I want to see a video of her chuckling. I love when babies laugh uncontrollably.
I would love that neighborhood also but I am thinking that will never happen. There aren't too many of those perfect setting neighborhood out there.
