In the Bathtub with Dr. Seuss

***My apologies, it has just come to my attention that LUSH products contain SLS and parabens, among other chemicals I do not wish to promote on my blog. My brother was unaware of this(they were given as Christmas gifts) and I didn't think to look into them until this weekend. 1/23/11 I did enjoy their products and hope they make the positive step to remove those unnecessary chemicals in the near future.***

That could be taken all kinds of ways, but never fear. My bathtub is just big enough for me!

Wildtree with Amanda- Review

This past week I had the pleasure of testing out a product from a line that's new to me- Wildtree! Wildtree products are all natural; peanut free, msg free, additive free and dye free. That is very important to me- I try not to serve products to my children if they do not meet that criteria! Amanda from Wildtree kindly sent me a box of their focaccia mix and the Whole Wheat Pizza Dough.

Operation 'Pup Pup'

*Knock on Wood* It is a success!

Let me introduce you to my favorite little dog, Pup Pup.

Relax, Mama- Package Giveaway *CLOSED*

Just because, we could all use a little relaxation! 

*CLOSED*

I put together a little package of some of the things that help me to relax that I hope you may enjoy, too. 

Baby's First Haircut

I did it.

I hadn't really planned on it to be honest.

But then it happened.

I couldn't take the mullet any longer!

Wordless Wednesday- Too Close to 4

*SIGH* I give up trying to schedule posts this evening! Blogger and I are having disagreements. Enjoy Wednesday's post early!

Lately I find myself in a panic at the thought of my daughter turning 4 in April...

Middle Eastern Rice with Black Beans and Chickpeas recipe

I had to go back in my posts and confirm I haven't already shared this one! It's one of our favorites. You can decrease the spices for your family if they aren't into so much flavor and a little (tiny) heat.

It's Menu Monday!

I've been making my meal plans on Mondays for some time now and will try to remember to post them from time to time. I always enjoy seeing others' meal plans to get ideas, too! This week is especially ambitious and in all honesty, I'm hoping there will be some accountability in actually posting what I'm to be making. *Wink* Why Monday? Why not Saturday? I've found Monday to work better for us as I don't  have the added 'to do' on what should be a relaxing weekend. Not to mention, grocery shopping on Saturday is plain crazy. Monday nights, not so bad!

Random brain things

That is, if I have things left in my brain. After 2 nights of little to no sleep thanks to son's cold number 4,5354,44,5,4,454(don't try to make sense of it, it's a lot) I'm not running on much. From the sounds of the hubs trying to put the babe to sleep, we might be heading for night 3. To top it off my own various sinus things are ouchie.

And, because things in the Crazy Green House never go below 100 MPH, tomorrow is the Boob Man's 1st birthday party. Which I've largely ignored. Largely meaning= I have no cake. I have no decorations. We'll be winging it, folks. In the two hours left pre-party after my husband helps someone move in the morning.
