How do I save Instagram photos?

I ordered a glider. THE glider. It's Grey & White so it matches perfectly & didn't take me gnawing off my leg to pay for it. (not saying people would actually pay for legs, just my legs ;) And who said money can't buy happiness? Okay, maybe not happiness, but a little bit of excitement. Mr Smith wanted our recliner back in the living room so I've been nursing on the floor. Because yes, I still have to nurse before 7 AM, sigh. A mother who feeds her child - send her to the gallows! (for all those who think there is nothing wrong with feeding a babe of 5 months before 7 AM, there is. My child is not consistent and obviously I fail at sleep training) I'm not depressed about it (people should stop assuming I'm depressed when I whine. I don't want to have to stop whining). I just can't wait to get my sleep back mostly because lack of sleep makes you emotionally unstable. BUT even if she did sleep until 7 AM (so help us she did once), my boobs still swallow up milk around 3 AM so I'm ready to burst & it's messy, for those who haven't experienced it. So maybe others don't have this issue... but I'm not sure how I can cope except to sleep with a burp cloth under my shirt... so hot. I try so hard for Mr Smith these days. Let's just say the shingles haven't made me feel sexy this past week either.

On another note, my daughter is super healthy & happy (up to this point, don't judge me for the unknown future). She is sitting rather well, although of course I still have to watch her. She loves studying her hands and playing with her pacifier (in & out). Goodness that pacifier clip was HANDS DOWN the best investment so far. She likes to watch me clap. She also understands the concept of peekaboo, or at least likes it. And most of all she is just freakin adorable ALL THE TIME she is not crying. I love it when she just stares at me. Makes me feel like a million bucks. #superstar

Gotta love some good hashtags. I feel like it's past my generation, but it's really just past me since I'm so behind on the technology world. I think verizon is going to make me get a smart phone. Can they do that!?!? Also, how do I save my Instagram photos? Apparently right click doesn't work...

this one time I was engaged to Mr Smith & photoshopped my under eye  because I can do that
notice my pretty eye? ;)

UPDATE: I finally just figured the only way to get the pics is to download them from the Itouch, and yep I had to google how to do that. I don't use Imagecapture, but now I know about it!

  1. There were times I slept with SEVERAL burp cloths stuffed in my shirt because of crazy middle of the night leaking. You are totally normal. :)

    Whine away, we love it. :)

We're patiently waiting

Picture Mr Smith putting together the pack-n-play. He was so cute. Mostly when he had to read the directions. Do we have a child? Don't ask such silly questions. Hopefully it won't collect too much dust in 5.5 months. We're ready now . . . (but not really) It has a changing thing and a removable bassinet that vibrates.  I'm okay with not needing a changing table.  It will probably mean we won't get a crib for awhile too.  Next we need to hear from our baby/exercise friends a good car seat & jogging stroller (maybe ones that work together)... Any favorites? Then a blanket . . . Then a breast pump . . . Then a diaper bag. . .  Then lots of diapers, toys & cute clothes.  And even a mobile.  Then they get older and there's even more things. Mr Smith is just so thrilled. I'd love to hear about any products that you recommend/absolutely love having. Here is one thing you can do to annoy Mr Smith: go ...

Our Baby Story - Alexis

Alexis Jane Smith 04.27.13 - 5:16PM 8lbs 15oz - 22.5 inches brown hair, undetermined (blue) eyes NB clothes are too tight You hate diaper changes You love being swaddled You are a piranha for food Your skin is perfect You sleep better with noises You came out sucking on your fingers But luckily you're not a scratcher Basically, we think you're perfect. First day at home photo Dear Lexi,  We couldn't handle holding you inside my stomach for another minute. We made an appointment when the contractions never came. Things were changing, but you were still 7 days late. Maybe we were eager parents, but now that we have you in our arms, we understand why, really understand. You're amazing . By the time we showed up at your 6 AM hospital appointment to be induced, I was already 3.5 cm dilated & 90% effaced & having mild contractions. So mild I thought I might have had high pain tolerance because I didn't feel th...

We Remember... All the Time We... Spent Together

My 1-1 days are shortly coming to an end with my oldest who decided to have more time with me and her youngest sibling this past year & I'll forever be grateful for that. I'm never ready for them to grow up and give most their time & attention to everyone else.  Again, we are excited for another phase & this time she gets to be the big kid coming back with more rest & confidence to wrap up her middle school years going part-time for 8th grade. Will busy work burn out still be a concern? Will "learning" in a noisy & crude environment still be a concern? Will losing more of her childhood still be a concern? Yes, yes and yes. However, she knows how to choose good friends, she knows how to work hard, and she knows she enjoys structure & peer competition coming from outside the home. I don't know if she'll push herself to participate more in sports, or find new opportunities elsewhere, but that's the blessings of this life - there are al...
