Cutest PJ's E..V..E..R

Introducing Skivvies:

We carry these PJ's at Bellybou' and they have become the favorites in our house... fer sure. Macy wants to wear them every night and declares every time (like it's the very FIRST time she's noticed...) "Carter-bot look! We MATCH!" (Sometimes she talks to him like he's 2 MONTHS old not 2 YEARS old...but that's another post).

Ummm... decided to leave the explanation of the hole for another time, we glossed right over that question with lighting speed distraction. Quick guys, stand up and pose for Daddy!



Oh, for the love of Skivvies. You are welcome to call Bellybou' and order your very own pair!

Carter's 2nd Birthday

A month later. Turning two kinda got lost in the shuffle of opening the store but he didn't seem to notice or mind. Check out Ryan's incredible job on the 'drum cake'!

First day of school

I can't sleep right now, so can I show you these pictures of my stinkin' cute kiddo on her first day of pre-school.

Ugh, my heart like, literally aches at the way she's growing up!

Oh, PS- I pick her up from her first day and here is our conversation on the way home:

(Me with wide grinning pride smeared across my face in sheer excitement and anticipation of the wonderful things she will share with me and the way we will bond over this new experience)

"How was it Mace???"

"It was good."

"What did you do?" (again blubbering with silly sing song voice and eager ears)

"I can't remember."


... it starts. O joy.

Suuuper Annoyed

I was duped. It was the lamest, oldest scam, but I completely missed it and consequently I am out a 'service charge' for this stupid 'personality test'. I'm so mad at myself because I think these kind of tests are ridiculous and I seriously NEVER do them. But I was bored waiting for Ryan to get home from a meeting and saw it on someone else's blog (who by the way, you know who you are...did you know you PAID for that?!?!) and assumed it must be a free thing, what the heck, I'll do it... 5 seconds later after flying through mindless questions and clicking 'send', BAM - I'm charged and signed up for a monthly SUBSCRIPTION!!!

I immediately cancel the subscription and call the 'hotline' to demand they make sure I'm not on any records or required to pay any charges and the money sucking gentleman on the other end matter of factly informs me that I have successfully canceled my subscription but I will still be charged for the information and services already provided me... in the last 3 minutes. (See below to view how incredibly worthy of charge they are) I was and am livid. I've sent emails to every 'contact' they gave me, (no phone numbers of course) but if you read any of the notes I used to pass in High School you know I can sling my words around with the best of them when waring injustice.

But to no avail, I've not received one response and I'm officially quitting because I could give myself an ulcer with all the frustration I feel over this stupid thing.

SO here ya go: Enjoy my "Personality"...
