Celery, Carrots, kashi bars-anything you can snack on and get to quickly that won't fill you up with sugar and make you crash. With Anderson, we had a little table next to my rocking/feeding chair and I kept some bottles of water and granola bars there--it was a lifesaver! oh, the adventures you are about to have!!:)Sincerelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07852513553771545641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3910517933765267828.post-12537660792502304582009-02-02T21:23:00.000-06:002009-02-02T21:23:00.000-06:00hey holly and ben,so excited for y'all! ..i've be...hey holly and ben,<BR/><BR/>so excited for y'all! ..i've been a silent stalker for awhile. ;) i would "second" the idea to stamp and return address thank you notes! it really is SO, SO ridiculously difficult to find time to write those! i think you might also want to make sure you have some things on hand that you can fix quickly (and eat with one hand) b/c you'll be holding sweet p A LOT! ...no one told me that babies just want to be held all the time at first! ...and go see a movie (or 7) jeff and i have seen two since emory was born last march! much love, jeff and jill crownoverJJChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17395275304341977592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3910517933765267828.post-63774686371105115882009-02-02T19:42:00.000-06:002009-02-02T19:42:00.000-06:00Check out Dr. Sears website.

It's easier if you know all your sleeping arrangement options before you are sleep deprived!

If people are offering to bring meals, take them up on the offer! Our church and Blake's work provided meals and it was such a blessing. I am not very good at accepting help, but wow did this help out! <BR/><BR/>I am not sure you can stay focused enough to read but some great reads are "Twenty Things" by Sherrie Eldridge on adoption things. Baby Whisperer and Baby Wise...just a few that might make the next few years easier!<BR/><BR/>Still praying!Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983106171924940163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3910517933765267828.post-19932460119850794482009-02-02T18:21:00.000-06:002009-02-02T18:21:00.000-06:00If you want some practice, you are welcome to come...If you want some practice, you are welcome to come visit-I'm home all day.

I could really use a good Holly system in my house right about now. In fact, I think part of the problem in our new home is that we didn't buy it from you in the first place :)! I will be praying around the clock for you guys. I will pray specifically for peace... can't wait to "meet" him.<BR/><BR/>*Oh yeah, I was going to mention you could go ahead to Austin and check out one last movie at the Alamo on 6th street :)!Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15550423837221745078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3910517933765267828.post-57094554398642733042009-02-02T14:43:00.000-06:002009-02-02T14:43:00.000-06:00I was going to suggest you clean mine too!!I was going to suggest you clean mine too!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3910517933765267828.post-44686802572094009752009-02-02T13:37:00.000-06:002009-02-02T13:37:00.000-06:00Well, I'm sure someone else will have this idea, t...Well, I'm sure someone else will have this idea, too... but you could come clean my house!
