Hodge Podge*
(image found at: http://scrapetv.com/News/News%20Pages/Science/Images/t-rex-jurassic-park.jpg) In the past two days the Hubster and I have watched all 3 of the Jurassic Park movies (we’re finishing #3 with Too Kool as I write) and I forgot how much I love dinosaurs. Seriously. The first Jurassic Park still scares the crap out of me and I still love love love dinosaurs. I kind of want to watch The Land Before Time next… the original movie, not #142, or whatever one they are up to now. haha! It makes me feel like a kid again when I so desperately wanted to be a paleontologist. It lasted for like… a week. But my love of…

Working Girl*
(image found at: http://www.insidesocal.com/tomhoffarth/exhausted.jpg) Oh lovelies, I haven’t forgotten you, I promise. So, I’ve started working. I actually have to leave for work again in 15 minutes but I wanted to write a quick something to let you know I haven’t abandoned you (and I’m discovering that post-work I’m pretty much useless as I’m so tired. haha). My new job is okay–it’s nothing to dance about–but I am grateful for any kind of work at this point. My job is much more physical than I ever anticipated, and I come home exhausted and sore every day. It’s definitely not a job for ‘delicate’ women, I’m having a tough time keeping…

An Announcement! Exciting!
(image found at: http://rlv.zcache.com/are_you_pregnant_card-p137126423820108142tdtq_400.jpg) Oh, my lovely friends and readers… In my last post I shared two fabulous blogs that most of you somehow missed due to a tiny announcement I made that we had some exciting news to share later this week. It has been less than 24 hours since I made that announcement, and in that I time I have received multiple emails and facebook messages all asking the same thing: “…are you pregnant?!” “…ARE YOU HAVING A BABY?” “You’re pregnant. It HAS to be that.” I promise you, it doesn’t have to be that. We could be moving! I could be undergoing major surgery! I could have…

Shop Girl Shares How to Not Dress Like a Mom & Children of the 90’s
I. am. tired. It has been a very long, very tiring, very exhausting day. We have some big news coming that I won’t share now, but be excited. :) As I was cleaning up the kitchen I realized that it’s Monday and I only have an hour and a bit to post this week’s fabulous shares, so here we go! #1 – How to Not Dress Like a Mom (image found at: http://s7.sears.com/is/image/Sears/054T0139000?wid=150&hei=150&op_sharpen=1) We’ve all seen them– the “Mommy Clothes”. Mommy jeans, mommy shirts, mommy sandals… there’s a whole line. Above you see an example of a typical “mommy sandal” worn by women who need a little more Stacey and…

Growing Pains*
(image found at: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/misusing_slang.png) When do we really grow up? Is there a moment in time when all of a sudden something shifts and we move from adolescence to adulthood in an instant, whether we like it or not? Does it happen so gradually that we don’t even notice it’s happening until it smacks us in the face? …and what the heck is a grown up, anyway? Is it when we discover that vegetables aren’t just gross–they’re actually fabulous? …or when our siblings become our friends and parents are suddenly wiser than we ever realized? Is it when we truly feel independent for the first time? …or when we are…
