Bright Starts Pretty in Pink Collection

Brynlie is in love with this teething toy from Bright Starts. It is one of her favorite toys and girlfriend has a meltdown each time that it falls from her grasp.

I love to stick it in the fridge for her--she loves the cold feeling on the purse when it is on her gums. The purse is made of a softer material and filled with water which makes it the perfect texture for her to chew on and gum on. A lot of teething toys are so hard that she doesn't care for them as much as she loves her Bright Starts Pretty in Pink Carry & Teethe Purse! It's squishy enough to soothe her gums, but not so soft that it wouldn't be beneficial to teething.

The green handle is the perfect size for her to chew on and she loves to stick her hand underneath for a super grip. There are also two round bead chasers that can move around and allow your baby to watch, feel and move them around on their own.

I really like the different textures that this teething toy is made of. Lots of bumps and shapes so her hands and her mouth can explore, explore, explore. It's easy to clean and very easy to store. It has been a huge hit with Brynlie! It's on the top of her go to toy list which makes both her and me happy.

The Nap

Last night was yet another night of the teething routine.



I'm a little used to it, though.



However, after waking up at 5:30 I was really really hoping someone would go to sleep for this tired Momma who got around 4 1/2 hours of sleep last night.



And you know what?



She did! The little girl slept for two blissful hours!



And this Momma curled up in bed right next to her and slept like it was nobody's business.

Hmmm...should I take a nap this morning?

Yeah!!!!

This Momma Gets to Pick a Day Away...

As you can tell by my title, Isabella has once again won the teething battle over me.

*sigh*

But the good news? They are ALMOST through. I can see them right there....please, please, PLEASE let those 2 top teeth break through!

This Momma and Daddy are tired. And I know my poor little girl needs a break, too.

Leo got home yesterday and could immediately tell it was another one of those days where it all went wrong.

I just want to tell you a glimpse, a smidge of our day: it began before 4 in the morning.

You can only imagine the good times that were happening here!

Back to when Leo got home. He sees me. He sees Isabella. He sees us both at breaking points.

He tells me I can do something for an entire day.

By myself.

At first that sounded good, heavenly, unheard of.

But now?

Not so much. I would miss them both like crazy and honestly? I have no idea what I would do alone for an entire day.

So I have offered him a middle ground.

How about I get to pick something we all should do together.

I was thinking Barnes and Noble, maybe some ice cream, maybe go to the Outlets in Gulfport.

I am so excited!! I never get to pick something out to do.

If anyone has any fun ideas they do as families that are relatively relaxing, stress free, etc, please do share...I love hearing about new things to try!

He's a Lifesaver...That Husband of Mine...

After a long day filled with:



Crying-mine and Bella's



Screaming-Bella's



Meltdowns-Bella's



Teething-Bella's



And lack of naps-mine Bella's



Leo brought me home this much needed relief:



Thank you, honey, thank you.



I will be ready to tackle yet another day of teething hell.
