I have to confess! The reason my daughter is so happy and full of energy, wait, every kid is full of energy, haha.

The secret is.... I give her mountain dew every morning! She plays with the bottle and it starts her day off right! Heehee, just kidding, I only give it to her sometimes.

Isn't it funny how children love the unconventional toy. And yet people pay so much money buying them actual toys? She does like her baby toys, they just get boring.

Mountain Dew!

I was browsing through the VS swimsuit catalog and was struck with the need to get in shape. I think I am now in the worst shape ever, after having Izzy. So I have worked out 3 days in a row then took the last 2 days off because my awesome parents dropped by on their way home. They were out vacationing for.... 1 whole month!!! I used to go with them on those! 

I think this gorgeously clear and crisp day must be the coldest we've had yet! And we got snow for the third time this winter!

The whole time I was making it I was singing the song from 'The Sound of Music' in my head.

If your dryer breaks...

Set up your own clothes line in your library. I am excited to see how much electricity we will be saving. 

You know there are certain things that are easy money savers. But because of the media they are viewed as signs of poverty. Like hanging up your clothes on the line. I don't have a yard so I can't, but if I did I would. ^-^
