Grace Nails

Word to the wise: if you find yourself thinking "Well you know what, I'll walk into town and Jack is tired so he'll fall asleep and I'll be able to get a manicure before he wakes up!"... pinch yourself cause you're dreaming. I could do that when Jack was a few weeks old, but not anymore.

Grace Nails is where I like to go for manicures and pedicures. I think they do a great job, give great service and awesome massages. Today they went above and beyond... even walking Jack around the shop when he woke up and started to fuss. I'll be honest -- it made me a wee bit nervous. But they were great. Jack didn't really calm down that much, haha, but I was able to wrap up the manicure without them giving me the stink eye. They were awesome. I don't go too often, but I'll definitely be back. Sans the bub.

5 Months Old

I can't believe Jack is 5 months old! Crazytown.

He's rolling over (and he still hasn't remembered he already knows how to roll belly-to-back). He sleeps on his belly. He's drinking 5oz at a time... usually. His sleep is all over the place. He's a ridiculously happy kid who is enjoying finding his voice. And he's found his feet. And he's in love.

And I'm in love. He's awesome. And a badass.

We didn't get those sunglasses. But he let them be on his face without flipping out... which makes me feel pretty good about buying him some sunglasses that will actually protect his eyes from UV rays. We're really looking forward to the weather warming up and spending more time outdoors. We just need to get him ready with a good sunhat and some sunglasses. He'll be old enough for sunscreen in another month. I have super sun-sensitive skin, so we will have to watch him very closely. Hopefully it'll turn out he has hubby's skin, but regardless we'll have to protect that so-soft-snuggly-squeezalishiss (yes) skin safe.
