We set the alarm for 3:45am last night. When the alarm went off we both reached for our laptops and pulled up them on to our laps while we sat in bed. We hunted for the products we wanted, we pulled up the sites offering the products, we refreshed the pages waiting for the sales […]

Happy Thanksgiving to you!
Hopefully everyone is having a wonderful Thanksgiving! N and I are still in bed and it is 11am. We are watching the Macy’s Day Parade while having coffee and doughnuts. Two of my favorite performances were by: One More Time Around Again Marching Band and the Florida Special Needs Colorguard. I woke up this morning […]
Turkey day is tomorrow, do I have the flu?
I am feeling a bit off today, like I might be getting sick or something. I am trying hard to kick it by eating well, drinking tons of water and resting. Hopefully I am not getting the flu or something. N is thinking the fact that I ate subway might have something to do with […]
Crazy vintage sewing patterns! Thanks Freecycle!
N snagged me some sewing patterns off Freecycle to keep me busy and with the hopes that I could make myself some maternity clothes. Check these out! I wonder if the really old ones are worth anything. They are all pretty old. I mean they even have the $1.00 price still right on them. Now […]
Black friday here we come!
I am surprisingly very excited about turkey day and “Black Friday”. Don’t worry I have no intention of actually shopping in stores the day after Thanksgiving, that would be pure madness! I am using a great online sale website that is designed specifically for just Black Friday. In past years we have had a blast […]
Bullet point Wendesday, with photos!
Pregnancy has caused this birthmark looking thing to appear on my back, it was never there before but my brother has a birthmark that is the exact same shape on his side. It is probably hyperpigmentation caused by the pregnancy huh? Well I thought it was strange… Can everyone see on my new baby widget […]
Preparing for turkey day and such…
Over the weekend we finally found a turkey that was not injected with hormones and various preservative solutions. Can you believe that nobody sells turkeys locally here? We looked high and low for one and were sorely disappointed! Then we figure we would settle for one that was at least hormone/ solution free. The kitchen […]
Milk breath sucks… I miss coffee.
N went of to work the day shift today, that means he’ll be home earlier that midnight for dinner. It also means I am spending my morning alone today. These days my morning beverage has gone from coffee to milk. We tried some decaf coffee for about a week but it just tastes all watery […]
Oh no! Keep the mac safe! (and other musings)
Last night I had an awful dream about my poor Mac. You see the white plastic case is getting hairline cracks for no apparent reason. It is kind of sad so I searched online to see if getting the plastic casing replaced was an option. Turns out most people had to send in their precious […]
Could it snow today? Weather man says it might!
N and I are headed out for a day of getting stuff done. We have a mystery shop all sorts of things to do today. We are going to the book swap place with some of my old, already read books, we might do some holiday shopping and we have grocery shopping to do. Plus […]
Stale cigarette lady has been here, again.
I don’t know if ghosts can actually make a room smell or not but I am convinced that is what we have been experiencing in our bedroom lately. Being newly pregnant means my sense of smell is off the hook. I notice everything, including the stench of stale cigarette smoke sometimes when I enter the […]

Common mommy bloggers I am depending on your expert knowledge… Before […]

What a crock! Walmart Canopy Memory Foam Mattress Topper Review
[POPUP=IMG1] At the furniture store we started drooling over the amazing memory foam mattresses. They were great to lay on and we thought they would really help me sleep more comfortably when the pregnancy weight sets in. Besides our mattress is older and is becoming a bit uncomfortable these days. Speaking of pregnancy weight today […]
It is finally friday yay! And tots rock, mmmm
Tater tots have saved my stomach today. I am not sure how or why but salty tots coated in ketchup got me from “ugh, I am going to be sick” to “yay, the tummy is better now I can sleep”. Thank goodness! I wanted to find the tots scene from Napoleon Dynamite but couldn’t, this […]
Damn fleas and forgetfulness… Random musings.
Yesterday after passing out at the doctors office and spending the rest of my day in bed I was kept company by my 4 indoor cats and a lone flea. Yep, was just laying in bed resting and the thing was jumping around on my arm. I hate bugs in my house. They make me […]
Baby Confirmed!
N is blogging this morning because T is recouperating after her visit to the OB/GYN. We woke up early this morning to get ready for our first appointment. We normally start every morning off with a cup of coffee together but early ones require even more coffee to get the morning started. Don’t worry, we’ve […]
Seven weeks pregnant and counting…
Right now I am a sucker for malted milk balls… Mmmm Whoppers rock! I just made myself a bowl of strawberry banana Jello for later enjoyment and a yummy caramel apple is too. The eating has not slowed down but the nausea has increased a bit. Still not vomiting though, yay me! Today is the […]
I have licences, woot woot!
Yesterday was quite eventful but I was too lazy to blog about it. The baby forced me to take a nap instead ;- Basically N woke me up at 6 am with his uncontrollable sneezing, he is having trouble with Indiana allergies- fun times. This prompted me to empty my bladder in the dark. So […]
Trying to have a home birth in Evansville, Indiana…
I apologize for not posting over the weekend, I know it is the most popular time of the week for this blog. Things have just been a tad bit frustrating and I lacked the energy to do much other than pull my hair out. Here is a little background for you, N and I want […]
