1. I still have not had GatorMan change my heading yet.... but it will happen. Hopefully soon. We are just too exhausted every day when we get home. And, for my day job, I am on the computer all day.... the last thing I want to do is be on it at home.
2. Ukulele is almost sitting by herself now! When her back gets tired, she'll do that "slow-motion-forward-fall" that is just so adorable. Also, she is rolling EVERYWHERE. If I turn my back, she's gone. I can usually find her sucking on the leg of the coffee table, or pulling the dog's ears. She's also rolling over in the middle of the night. Scares the crap out of me. But, from what I understand, if she can roll over, and then roll back the other way, she's fine. Still scares me though.
3. I bought her halloween costume. She's going to be a lobster. Too flippin' cute! We thought it was appropriate since we live on the ocean. I guess GatorMan and I will be fishermen.
4. Tomorrow pre-season starts for the Dallas Cowboys... FINALLY! Ukulele's Cowboy onesie is all ready to go!
5. Ukulele is growing like a weed. She got her final shot in her shot series today (we have them split up) and the nurse weighed her..... at almost 8 months she is weighing 20 lbs 4 ounces! Yikes! And she is now in 9-12 month clothes. Speaking of, where can we find one-piece-footie-pajamas for a 12 month old? I can find 9 months and under everywhere - but no 12 month old. With her rolling over in her crib, I do not want a 2-piece pajama that she can potentially get tangled up in.
6. GatorMan's cousin is living with us now. So far everything is going well. Hope it stays that way!
7. Ukulele's one year birthday is coming up.... I need to start planning a party for her. We are going to have it the weekend before her actual birthday. The weekend after her birthday is just too close to Christmas... and in the south, everyone throws Christmas parties. I do not want her to get lost in that jumble.
8. And after Ukulele turns one, we are getting back on the adoption list. :)

I have found footed jammies in larger sizes at Children's Place. Also, Babies R Us has one brand that goes bigger. Its crazy that clothes manufacturere think that little kids don't need footed jammies just because they are over 9 mo olds. Its not like they will keep covers on their feet. Weird.
Ahhhh I knew I liked you!!!! GO COWBOYS!!! =D
I have the same problem when I get home - I'm on the computer all day at work, and when I get home, it's like "meh."

love the lobster costume!!! :)
There are places that sell footed pajamas for all ages, including adult (matching set for yourself?). For example,

When I was a kid, I made my mom cut all the feet off my pajamas!
How did she get to be 8 months already?
I will still read your blog even though I live in Philly and hubbs is an Eagles employee...haha I'm not a big football fan, so I'm OK with the Cowboys onesie :) The lobster costume sounds adorable.
It must be so hard to believe that Ukulele is turning one! She's growing up...great to hear that you're getting ready for #2. So exciting!
It freaked me out when Evie started rolling at night, too. It will get easier with time.
I second the recommendation for The Children's Place, or Carters, for footie pjs over 9 month size. I've bought ahead at TCP sales and have some in sizes up to 3T and 4T stashed away! Another option is to put her in a onesie and put a Halo sleep sack over the top. WE are planning to use Halo sleep sacks (instead of blankets) with Evie until she's 2 years old.
The lobster costume sounds adorable...great idea!
