innovative? or desperate?

Anyone else get tired of picking up the sippy cup? I'm sure they sell things like this, but no need to buy one when you have rubberbands and link rings!

I gave up picking them up for them. If they threw it on purpose, it stayed put. If they just accidentally dropped it, no biggie, I'd pick it up. I think the "Mommy Fetch" game got old after the first day! LOL!

Yeah, we're not at the "fetch" phase yet. She just doesn't want it on her tray when she's done drinking. So we're working on "being okay" with having it there while she keeps eating. ha ha

I love it! I do that in the stroller, but never thought to attach it to the high chair.

Then

During the last few weeks of pregnancy, Kate listened to Brad Paisley's new song "Then". She didn't just listen to it a few times, she obsessively played the song on repeat, learned every word, and sung it at the top of her lungs while driving. Then one day a few weeks after Kaylee was born, Kate was driving with Kaylee by themselves. Kaylee began to cry...then scream. It didn't matter how much Kate reassured her, pulled over to make sure something wasn't wrong, or attempted to hold the pacifier in place with one arm backwards while driving. It finally occurred to Kate that maybe Kaylee wants mommy to sing to her (although no one else would want this!). So Kate put track #4 on and began to sing. Kaylee immediately calmed down. Low and behold, it's not even mommy's singing that Kaylee likes! It's Brad's!
