Josiah LOVES dancing! And I mean loves! He will listen to music all day if I let him. I know I shouldn't play him half the music I do, but dance music is so much more fun to listen to. I bought this monkey at Target when we were buying decorations for his birthday. He still hasn't tired of it. I don't know where he learns half of the moves he got, but they are so dang cute! Check it out for yourself...

Quick questions for pregnant women
I have 2 1/2 more months left in my pregnancy. I am starting to get uncomfortable with this huge mass protruding from my stomach. And my back is starting to hurt a lot after I've been on my feet for too long. I want to continue working out (I have been kickboxing, taking step class, swimming and walking 2 miles) these last 2 months, but can't continue what I'm doing... other than swimming of course. Any suggestions? I'll take them all!
Josiah's sweetness
I asked Josiah to kiss Layla today (he knows she resides in my belly), so he did. Several times. Then he hugged my belly for a good 5 minutes. Not an hour passes and he comes up to my belly and kisses it 10 times, hugging it in between. 30 more minutes go by and he does it again. I really hope he is this sweet to her when she actually arrives. He just has such a loving heart. We are truly blessed. Thank you Jesus for our precious gift!
Colorado
July 7-11 I was in Colorado with my mom, my BFF Laura, and her mom Gayla for Allison's wedding. We had such an amazing time. The weather was un-freaking-believable. 70 degrees every day with light rainfall each day. The 4 of us stayed at a friend's parents' house in Evergreen. Talk about breathtaking! They live in the highest house on the mountain, which means this was our view:
I got to spend Thursday with Allison and her family. I hadn't seen her since last June so I enjoyed every second of it! Friday and Saturday were filled with wedding stuff. Being pregnant, in high altitude, driving up a VERY curvy mountain 2 times a day made for a very uncomfortable, vomity (yes, that's a word) time, but it was worth it getting to watch my oldest friend get married. I also got to spend lots of time Laura, my mom and Gayla too! I miss them so much! I needed girl time like you wouldn't believe. I have a couple of close friends in Nashville, but nothing compares to the history and relationships I have back home.
Chris took very good care of Josiah while I was gone. I missed them like CRAZY!!! It will be a long time before I leave them again for that long.

Who wouldn't miss this guy??
I sure am going to miss my boys while I'm in Colorado for Allison's wedding for the next 5 days. I haven't been apart from Josiah for more than 24 hours, so this will be interesting. I am prepared for crying and the longing sensation of wanting to be with my family... and I'm only going away for 5 days!! Pray for me.
Soap.com
I'm shamelessly plugging soap.com. It's a website that sells various household essentials, health and beauty products. I found it because I was sent a 30% off coupon with a diapers.com purchase. I never pass up a coupon! Especially when it's for something that I need. I'm promoting it because if you spend $39 or more you get free shipping (usually ships in 1-2 business days), their products are about 10-15% cheaper than if you were to purchase the exact same product at a grocery store or CVS/Walgreens type store, and there is NO tax! The Tennessee tax rate is almost 10%, so I figure I am saving at least 20% just by buying their items. What I plan on doing from here on out is purchasing all my household needs (paper towels, kleenex, soap, etc) at the first of the month, for the entire month. That way I won't run out of toilet paper, and more than likely shipping will always be free. The only way I won't do this on a household item is if there is a store coupon and store sale on something I need that will beat the soap.com price.
I just wanted to share this information with you. I have been trying hard to figure out couponing, and sites like these make it a little easier and cheaper :)
