300th Blog Post

Posted by Heather at Monday, September 20, 2010
This is the 300th Blog Post on All Things Katy! In honor of such a milestone, I thought it'd be fun to record some other numbers here.

Katy, to date;

...currently, we start the day out at 6:30AM, every day.

...breastfeeding saves at least $831.48 in the first year.

...by making baby food at home, I estimate that in one year's time, we will have saved approximately $600.

...by scoping out the sales and using coupons for diapers and wipes, I estimate that in one year's time, we will have saved approximately $550.

...we've taken too many pictures to count (Nana and Grandpa Jones gave Daddy an external hard drive for his birthday to back up all of the pictures- if that gives you any idea of how MANY pictures we have!!)!!

...you currently nurse at 6:30AM, 10:30AM, 2:30PM, 7PM and various times throughout the night.

...you eat "meals" (aka baby food) at 8AM, 12PM, 5PM.

...you currently wear size 3 diapers.

...you are currently comfortably wearing size nine month clothing.

...thanks to our friends the Foleys and the Batys, you have over 20 pairs of shoes (I'm not kidding!) and you can't even walk, yet!

...you can pull yourself up and stand while holding onto something. You can also crawl.

...we bought a foam ABC mat to lay down in the dining room (35 SF) so that you have a safe place to crawl around on.

...you've had two bouts of the sniffles- both of which were while you were in daycare.

...by not having you in daycare, we save $8,844/year. Of course, we have the loss of my income, but staying home with you, less illness, happier baby (and Mommy and Daddy), getting to experience all of your "firsts" has value to us).

...at your last doctor's appointment (six month), you maintained your 90th percentile for height and weight at 27" long and 17 lbs, 12 ozs. You have almost tripled your birth weight.

...you've experienced winter, spring, summer and we are entering into the fall season.

...you have a full head of hair that is fun to put into two pigtails or one Pebble's style pigtail on the top of your head.

...we start the bedtime routine at 6:30PM with a bath, nighttime nursing, story and prayer; ending around 7:15 PM (ish).
