I got Khéna weighed today…

Yesterday I ran into a nurse that I know at the grocery store… we talked a bit about my UC, birth, breastfeeding and babywearing which led to weight…. when I told her that we hadn’t had him weighed because we don’t agree with Well-baby visits she offered to weigh Khéna if I wanted (she had a free time this afternoon) and I thought it would be fun even to just show him off to a few of the nurses that I know… so I went in today, put him down on the scale and got the numbers…

At a few days shy of 6 months (6 months on Monday) he is now 29 pounds and is about 29 1/2 inches long…!!!!!

He is wearing 24 months (in the pic he has a 24 month romper) and mostly 2 years clothes and is just a big boy overall…

stupid garage sale rules…

Such a frustrating day!

Our city allows garage sales 4 weekends a year… 3 are in May and one at the end of August… though the August one is free the others need a license and not only can they only be valid for one weekend, you cannot even get another one if things don’t go well, rain etc…

Anyway…

I saw that it would be nice this weekend so I decided that it was a good day for a garage sale… On friday I went and got change, got the license etc and then came home to get everything together with Simon… Early on Sat morning we got everything set up and then started the wait… Well… another thing about garage sales here is that you are not allowed to advertise… neither before or during the sale.. and of course, we live on a small side street… so we practically had no one come by… finally at the end of the day we made our first sale… then a second… paying at least our license.. then a third sale made our grand total of profit…

1$

I am never having another garage sale here… the laws really suck!!!

The only good thing was that it was a gorgeous day and I got some cute pics…
