How awesome is my mom?

I found this product online today called a summers.lifeguard. Wow what a great concept! I knew right away it was something we could really REALLY use with Marissa! I immediately called the company to find out more info. I really love what they have done. Unfortunately, I don't have an extra 375$ right now (which is about how much 3would cost without shipping) and 3 is really the minimum number that we would need. I was pretty bummed. I called my mom and she said she'd bring her sewing machine over and we would see what we could come up with. I had a few yards of some flannel Id bought to make night gowns for the girls and my mom picked up a few yards of velcro. I am so so so thrilled with what my mom was able to do! I still really want to order a summers.lifeguard when I can afford it as I like to support small businesses and their inspiration is such a blessing to us.

The things that excite me

well for one my daughter has not thrown up for over a month...not ONCE. This is the child who used to puke daily and after nearly every feeding. I am nervous to be blogging this...I hope I don't jinx us. Second, this twin size bed...oh I want this bed. I am waiting to hear from the company how much it costs. I found some pointers on the site for getting insurance to pay for it. I will definitely pursue that. But in the meantime I may just cough up the money--IF possible. I am thinking this could cost several grand...but I hope not. Marissa has decided she wants to climb out of her crib. I cant sleep I am a nervous wreck. I am so afraid she will pull out her line or at the least break the iv tubing in the process. I thought about putting her into a twin bed but there is noway she would stay in it. Off she would go and she'd just keep on pulling until her line snapped and she was free. Ask me how I know *smirk*
