Jarekah loves to play with Daddy. They play peek-a-boo and get-a-way. It is so cute to watch them play together. Eric is such a wonderful husband and a great Daddy to our Jarekah.

SUPER DIAPER DEAL...For All You Mommy's Out There!
The Web site http://www.diapers.com/index.aspx has most brands of diapers, including Luvs, and I received a really great deal! I ordered the diapers for the first time yesterday and received $10 off my first order. You also get free shipping on orders of $49 or more. I bought 1 case of size 5 and two packages of the same size of Luvs for a total of 210 diapers and it came to $49.97. The trick is to type in the code BCTODDLER into the promotion box to get $10 off your order. When you check out, there is a promotion/referral box and if you could please type in my code ERIC8548 then I would greatly appreciate it.
For those of you who have babies that require a smaller size diaper, the total of diapers will actually increase for you for the same price. For example, someone with a baby that wears size 3 diapers would receive a total of 284 diapers. Someone with a baby that wears size 2 diapers would receive a total of 328 diapers, and so on.
So to summarize, I visited the http://www.diapers.com/index.aspx Web site and filled out a short order form. Upon checkout, I entered the promotional code BCTODDLER into the promotion box and received $10 off my order. So I received 210 size 5 Luvs brand diapers and only paid $39.97 total. There was no shipping and handling and they did not even charge me tax.
It is definitely worth the few minutes of time to fill out the order form and I got my diapers delivered to my doorstep the very next day. Let's face it, anything that saves us moms time and money is greatly appreciated and well worth the effort! If you do it, let me know how it works out for you and if it is a better deal than your normal diapering routine. Also, don't forget to enter my code ERIC8548 in the promo/referral box and tell all your diaper-buying friends to do the same. Once you order, you will get a referral code and you can tell all your friends that you referred to enter your code. You will receive $5 off your next purchase if you do!

Happy Easter and Other Fun Stuff
So we woke up early Sunday morning and we started getting ready. We gave Jarekah a bath and put her in the beautiful Easter dress Gramma and Grampa Wall bought her. So adorable! We were almost ready when we heard the phone ring...Eric's boss! He called and said that two of their employees called in sick and they needed Eric to come in. I was devastated. So there is good news and bad news.
The good news is that his boss said he could come in a little later so Eric could attend the first two blocks of church services. The bad news is that after that he had to work for about five hours and missed Easter dinner with my family who were visiting. Of course we saved him a big plate of food and he was able to join us later on. Hope everyone had a wonderful and happy Easter.
I had to get a picture of Jarekah after her bath. She came running into our bedroom looking so dang cute!
Jarekah wants her babies that are in her crib.
Daddy gave her the babies
Show-off
The end of the night...she fell asleep in the car on the way home from Aunt Kendra's house. We were there with the rest of the family after church. She woke up around 9:00pm and we fed her some dinner and let her have some of her Easter candy. There were only 3 things she could eat from her Easter basket. We bought one of those premade ones from the store. Next year I will make my own. She did get a huge ball, so that was good enough for her!

Growing Girl
Jarekah is 34 inches tall and weighs 28lbs. 8oz. Her head measures 49cm. What a big girl! Her pediatrician said that Jarekah is doing great and is displaying advanced developmental milestones. That is always good to hear and makes a mama proud.
Only one vaccination was required at this visit, so that was a blessing! Clean bill of health and we were able to bundle her back up and take her home. I am so grateful for my growing girl!

Singing Time
This picture was taken shortly after she licked the grapefruit. She wasn't too sure about it. It took her a while to process.
So after a few minutes, Jarekah decided to go for it! She put a chunk in her mouth and this was her reaction. What you don't get the pleasure of seeing is the aftermath. Jarekah pulled the grapfruit out of her mouth and threw it accross the room. I was laughing so hard and wish I could have captured that on film!
Jarekah's favorite food for the moment is spaghetti. She also developed a new face earlier this week. Enjoy!
It looks like Jarekah is laughing, but she is not actually making any noise. This is her latest "face" that she makes. It is hilarious to watch her.
