I know! I know! I'm blogging!
It's a bloody, freaking miracle!
I miss the blog world.
I attribute my absence to my new house the uncomfortable spot that my computer is now in (I either have to stand at the counter or sit on a bar stool to the side and hunch over. No fun.)
I neither blog, nor read blogs, so don't be offended if I am not up to speed on your dear sweet lives.
I think about you guys often, and think about stuff I want to tell you about.
I really ought to jot down my ideas as they come,
but alas, I am not that cool.
So here are a couple things I have been dying to tell you all about for quite some time.
First:
This bassinet/rocker/thingy
Fisher Price
$45
SO AWESOME
I bought this for little Gigi and it was the BEST. PURCHASE. EVER.
No HUGE/Expensive bassinet that you can't move around.
No worrying about acid reflux, because your baby is conveniently on an incline.
No worrying about them falling out as they get older, it has a harness.
They can sleep in it.
Nap in it.
Play in it.
It folds up and is feather light.
It rocks (you have to rock it, but it's still awesome).
It has mesh sides for breath-ability.
I use it all over the house and Gigi just loves it cause she feels so secure and cozy in it.
If you are having a baby, GET ONE.
Convenience and functionality all rolled up into one.
Second:
Brita
$29
It's just cute. It makes me happy.
I love the new colors.
There's lots of nasty, harmful stuff in tap water and this makes me feel better about drinking it. Eco-friendly too, no water bottles.
Along with the Eco-Friendly, no disposable water bottles theme.
THESE are awesome.
Water Bobble
$9
I'm off Diet Coke (gasp!) Ok, let me rephrase.
I no longer purchase Diet Coke for my home.
I only drink it about once a week
Compared to about 8 (you read that right, EIGHT) cans a day, I'd say that's an improvement.
So these little Water Bobbles are a dream come true. Filtered, nummy water on the go!
They are great, get one.
THIRD:
This Book is what made me quit (ok, wean myself off) the hard stuff (Diet Coke)
READ IT.
Just do it.
It will change your life.
I'm no vegan, YET, but it sure makes me look at the world differently.
The food industry is full of awful people.
READ IT.
The "colorful" language will have you laughing, blushing, and jaw dropping, the whole time.
BEWARE: It swears A LOT. Not for those who get offended by the cuss words.
I bought soy cheese today (I'll let you know how it tastes).
You can buy it (the book) anywhere.

Now onto life in general.
This is a shot of my backyard and what I see streaming in and out of my yard ALL DAY.
Beautiful huh?
(There's a river behind those trees, magnificent!)
For those of you who think I have fantastic hair, I was doing my hair the other day and was laughing at how it looks before I curl it.
I had to share it with you, so you quit thinking my hair is perfect.
See? Not perfect.
Fro. Nasty, scary fro.
This is how is looks air dried.
Funny huh?
(See the bassinet with Gigi in it? So great!)

This is just cute.
Everyone snuggled in bed on MLK day (Minus the Viv-mister).
This is what Vivian did (with her TEETH) to Solee's back, for no reason,while we were in Las Vegas a week ago.
Mean (but cute) little Orge, Vivian is.


Speaking of our little Ogre, it was her Birthday on the 7th.
We were in St. George.
She is cute.
She is 2 now.
How did that happen?
Never was there a sweeter, cuter, cuddlier, meaner, sneakier, craftier kid alive.
I sure love her.
This picture is her to a T!
She is the cutest.
That is all.
