Hello, my name is Kirsten and I am obsessed with cute duckies
So, 5th try’s a charm??? Not counting the short post about our moving plans, I think I have started to write a blog entry about four or five times in the past week. I am stilll really slow at typing with one hand, so even a whole session of feeding Madeline is not enough to write a blog entry of any decent length. (Or at least I get frustrated with the slow pace before I get very far into it). So in the past 8 or 9 days I have been interrupted by my daughter’s hunger or general fussiness several times. I’ve also been interrupted by computer problems (the laptop’s hard drive died) and my guilty concisence telling me to go and work on packing more boxes instead of wasting time writing on my blog. 
Today, I have successfully managed to not get any packing done all day, so what’s a little more time wasted? I spent over half and hour in Target today looking at cute baby stuff. I did go to that section with a purpose — looking for disposable bottle liners for feeding Maddie while traveling…but I got distracted by the many items on clearance. Then I was absolutely sucked in by the cute Duckie items on clearance. I am obsessed with cute duckies, and I can admit it! Since I had a gift card to use, I gave in and bought a two-pack of knit pants that included a yellow pair with blue duckies. They’ll debut on Madeline when she reaches the 6/9 month size.
We’re even decorating Madeline’s room with a duckie theme…so if she hates duckies by the time she reaches three years of age, at least you’ll know why. Meanwhile, if you are doing your early Christmas shopping and Madeline is on your list…feel free to buy the cute duckie stuff before she gets old enough to care.
