In the beginning of August, I got hypnotized.I swear, before I got pregnant, I was NOT a hippy. Had you asked me two years ago if I EVER thought I would see a hypnotist, I would have laughed in your face.
As soon as that baby was inside me though, I got freakishly concerned about chemicals, organic foods, and my mental state affecting...

I have to say it.I'm not a huge fan of tofu. I think I was overloaded as a kid and it just rubs me the wrong way.
But, tofu is a cheap source of protein, so we're working on it.
(I do LOVE LOVE LOVE Tofuyou's products. Their tofu is firm and delicious, plus their tofu balls, spicy wraps, and lemon honey strips are to die for).

We've made some updates to T's room that are working out beautifully!1) Stuffed animal storage: If it doesn't fit shoved in here, it doesn't stay in our house. Plus, they are the perfect height for T to grab them and talk to them then put them back!

Frigidaire Gas Stove and Oven
After tons of research on brands to buy (Consumer Reports, Lowes reviews, etc), we decided on Frigidaire. We ordered one I loved, but when it arrived it was too tall for our vintage kitchen! We had to special order one from Lowes and it...

Our organic cheap food adventure continues and I have to say that I'm highly disappointed in most of the recipes I used last week. After promising myself that I wouldn't use any recipes that weren't in epicuirous (because I get to read REAL people reviews and tips in the reviews section), after many failed or just not so good meals...Baby Kisses

You wouldn't know it from this picture, but tonight Turner fell in love. Serious love. There were gentle kisses, seductive cavemen dances, and no hitting. At all. My bruiser turned gentle.
They dined on squash and cheese, SHARED toys, and took a bath together. I've never seen my boy so gentle and loving. This is the best picture...

This might seem really strange. But I sort of think hanging family portraits looks cheesy.I love my family and I LOVE our family portraits, but I couldn't figure out where to put them in our house.
Since we are all in our house, why would WE need pictures of OURSELVES to look at?
So, I finally figured out a non-offensive,...

Mama drinks coffee and Daddy reads books.
Once a week, the big trucks come.
