Penny pinching gone wrong...


In an attempt to save a few extra bucks at Wal-Mart this week, I decided to buy the generic brand of diapers, instead of the usual Huggies. For those of you who are unaware of the technology behind diapers, here's what happens; When the diaper gets wet, the lining expands and turns into a type of gel. This morning when I went to get Javen from his crib, he was covered in these tiny gel-beads, due to diaper-leakage. He was grossed out. Thank you generic brands of the world for saving us all a little cash, but I'm afraid I will return to my name-brand diapers.

Mom stuff...

I never thought it would be possible to love so unconditionally, care so little about perfection, or care so much about seeing a smile. I can't believe the transition I made from life being all about me, to devoting almost all of my time to caring for someone else. Being a mom has changed everything about me. I truly feel like it has softened my heart. Time passes much, much too quickly. I just want to soak up every moment with my little love. Javen Wayne, such a joy.
