Busy Life

I keep meaning to catch up on a few things from the summer on here, but I always seem to run out of time.  I can't believe how fast time is flying by.  It's a little overwhelming.  The next thing I know, it's 1:00 in the morning and I'm still scurrying around trying to get stuff done before I start all over again the next day.  Bonnie and I opened up a second etsy store a couple of months ago.  I make flatback buttons which I use anyway to decorate my bows and such, and figured I might as well sell them while I'm at it, since I invested in all the materials.  Bonnie creates digital graphics for buttons and bottlecaps and they are so CUTE! I didn't realize how fast this store was going to take off! Between the two of us, we're already over 325 sales! And then there's the other store that is still going strong as well.  I like making buttons during the day too because it's something I can let Annika help me with, where she is actually very helpful.  She puts the back of the button part in the machine for me before I turn it to press it in.  Anyways, it's all quite fun.

Parker is not far off until he's crawling.  Here is a video I snatched of where he's at when he didn't think I was watching.  Parker had a Dr. apt on Tuesday.  He's pretty well on track.  The only thing that brought a bit of concern was his weight.  It dropped to the 3%.  His head was still in the mid 50s, nice and average and his height was still on the right scale, 15%.  Parker's been teething and got over some congestion and runny nose, which seemed to cause a loss of appetite the last couple of weeks.  He's wanting to nurse a lot, but not too interested in eating food.  I keep offering it and try my tricks to get it down him.  Anyways, hopefully he'll be feeling better soon when these silly teeth come up any day now.  We go in again in another month or so to check his weight again.
