The Juppy Baby Walker Review AND Giveaway {06/16/2010 US & Canada}

The Juppy is a new revolutionary walking aid.
Since The American Academy of Pediatrics has called for a ban of baby walkers with wheels, this is a safe way to help teach your little one how to walk!
What I love about The Juppy:
It is lightweight and very compact. It's about the size of her travel case of wipes, so it fits easily into her diaper bag!
It has adjustable straps, which is good because both Josh & I use it and we can adjust it to our needs.
It's unisex! And, can be monogrammed
It is machine washable, and if you have a baby you know how important that is!
It is very affordable-$19.95!
It is safer than wheeled walkers! The American Academy of Pediatrics has actually called for a ban of baby walkers with wheels.
You don't have to bend over to hold her arms to walk. That's two bonuses; I don't feel like my back is going to break because she is heavy and I don't feel like I'm going to hurt her little shoulders.
And, it's Doctor recommended!





It did take Kaidence a little time to adjust to The Juppy, but once she got the hang of it she LOVED it! I find it much easier for Kaidence to walk, because her arms are by herside therefore she is able to balance herself. When she used the wheeled baby walkers, if anyone tried to move her it would cause her feet and legs to bend and drag. With The Juppy, you can just lift her up if she needs to be moved - I like that! I want Little Miss to be safe, and The Juppy seems to be much safer than any other form of learning to walk!

8 Months Old

STATS:

When you went to the pediatrician 04/30/2010 you weighed 20 pounds & 3 ounces. I'm guessing you now weigh 21 pounds


NEW:
You now have 6 teeth!
2 on bottom & 4 on top!

EAT

You still eat like a CHAMP!

You have about 6 6oz bottles per day and solids at every meal.

You love snacking on wagon wheels, puffs, mum-mums, fresh fruit, and biter biscuits.

You love to feed yourself now, too!
You feed yourself cheese slices or shredded cheese, peas, beans, bread, and all your snacks!

SLEEP

You are still a wonderful sleeper!

You go to bed around 7:00 P.M., sleep til 5:00A.M. have a bottle and then go back to bed until at least 8 A.M.

You have pretty much cut back to just 2 naps per day now though!

PLAY

You are turning into a little SASSY lady!

When you don't get your way you 'growl' at us!

You still love to laugh, and have a really deep belly laugh.

You are army crawling now.
You still love to roll around, too.

You love, love, love to be outside!

Your favorite 'baby' is your glow worm! When you see it, you get all giddy. We love it! :)
You say "mama" & "dada", but you don't associate it with us!
You can also say "HI!". It's your FAVORITE and say it a thousand times per day!

CLOTHING

You can still wear some of your 6-9 month clothes, but mainly 12 months and some 18 month tops {you do have a Thames' head!;)}

You're still in a size 3 diaper.

You are also still in size 2 or 3 shoes.

You wore your first piggy tails this month!

My heart melted, for sure! :)

And, since she's now 8 months old...

She decided it was time to start working on her fitness some-HA!

Happy 8 Months,

Sassy Pants!

Weekend with Old Friends.

Friday - Josh was off work, so we stayed home and cleaned,cleaned,cleaned! We got all the rooms "spring cleaned" and sold some stuff on Craig's List! Also, Kaidence got a few drum lessons from her daddy ;)

Saturday - We left early heading to Evergreen. We went to Josh's parents when we first got into town. Then, we met my BFF Lindsey to head to Andalusia for lunch at Larry's BBQ! After lunch and WalMart, we went to my cousin Tonya's baby shower! Her little girl, Ansley, is due in July :) Kaidence stayed with my mom and sister so we could go to the theaters. It was a blast! It was me, Josh, Lindsey, Kristle,and her mom Kaye! We watched "Letters to Juliet" it was a really good movie, but I laughed the entire time thanks to Ms Kaye and her commentary-HA! After the movie we went back to WM and then to dinner at Ruby Tuesday's! We didn't get home until 1AM!!! {didn't get any pictures :( I did take this one on Josh's phone...Ms Kaye took her expensive drink from the theaters in RT with her-HA! She is crazy!}

Sunday - we went to church at our old church. Lindsey's daughter Addison was with her dad that weekend,but got to come to church to see us! :) I was so glad! After church we went to Kristle &Kaye's for chicken and then headed back home.

{Kaidence & Addison had on the same style dress from Target! Addison was a little scared of K because she wanted to attack her}

{Very blurry picture..:(}

Monday - Kaidence & I just hung around the house. She is cutting more teeth and she was not a happy camper!
Today - We went to prayer at church this morning, then I worked on some stuff for Youth. Kaidence sported her very first set of pigtails today. These are the Kula Klips I won - and, they are AMAZING! They are lined with plastic/rubber so they stay in her baby fine hair!

Hope y'all are having a wonderful week! I'm going to work on some crafts, cook dinner, and help Josh prepare his lesson for Youth tomorrow night!

Kaidence is Tutu Cute in her new shirt from Molly!

I mentioned in my previous post Kaidence won a shirt from TuTu Cute by Molly It came in Friday!
I was so excited for her to wear it because it was super cute!

Here's Little Miss in her adorable new shirt..

{she got 2 packages in the mail Friday. Her shirt & Kula Klips I won!}

{She was so excited!!}

Pictures from Saturday Morning..

She wasn't cooperating too well because it was a little too early for her!

{I have a 'weekend recap post' coming tomorrow}
