As I was browsing through Halloween costumes yesterday I came across this:

"Available in one size Adult standard. Adam costume fits up to 180 lbs. Eve costume fits up to 109 lbs."

Does anyone else see whats wrong here??? Adult Standard.....fits up to 109lbs......EXCUSE ME??

Adult standard for who? I don't know anyone who is 109lbs. I think the American average for women is somewhere around a size 10-12, 150-160 lbs.

Just makes you feel like a big fat slob!!

I've been working very hard that last 2 weeks trying to lose the last 15lbs of baby weight. My goal is for Dec 10, the day Mike and I leave on our cruise. So far I've lost 5lbs. So if you see me eating bad stuff, yell at me and tell me to eat a carrot!!

Random Pic: Where is Mike?



Tribute to Tomorrows annual trip to the Wineries:


Random fact I learned today:

"Honeybees have hair on their eyes. "

I know you will all sleep better tonight now that you know that.

Ella's a scootin and a moving. As most of you know Ella has been sleeping in her car seat some nights. It's the only way we could get her to sleep for a couple of hours so Mommy and Daddy could get some sleep. Anyway, yesterday morning Mike rolls over and I hear him say, "Where did she go?" Of course, I hear this and thinking someone has ran off with my daughter I roll over and ask him to clarify. He reaches down and pulls her up onto the bed. Apprently Ella wiggled herself completly out of the carseat and onto the floor. She was close enough to our bed that she was actually under the bed with just her little head sticking out!!! How funny is that?!!

Last night, we went all night without a feeding!! We have been trying to get this accomplished for a week or so now and last night was the first. She went down at 9am, got up at 4am, we rocked for about 5 minutes and she was out again. Slept until almost 7am!! Mommy was so well rested that we got up and went walking at 8am. Ella loves to go for walks and feel asleep almost as soon as we left the driveway.


As I'm sitting here, Ella is making this strange noises. I just got up to check on her and she is asleep. The only thing I can figure is that she is dreaming but here is my question. What in the world does a nine week old dream about?

Our cruise is in 9 weeks and I've been working hard to get back to pre-prego weight before then. I'm down 1.5 lbs this week, Yeah for me!!!

What do you think? Should we make Ella the next Paris Hilton? How about a little Bob Marley?
