Bountiful Baskets

By -

So, I have been really trying to figure out a way to feed my family more fruits and veggies for cheaper. I need to cut our food budget so we can get into a house and I just didn't know how without cutting healthy food....thank you Bountiful Baskets. So, I was looking at my friend's blog and she did a post very similar to this, so I tried it out and we LOVE it!!! You pay 16.50 every 2 weeks and you get a random bunch of fruits and veggies. We pick it up on Saturdays in a laundry basket. It is so fun to see what you will get each week. They say it is about $50 worth of produce for that price. It forces you to try new things. For example, we got 5 grapefruits the first time we did it. I don't like grapefruit. Guess what....now I do. I ate them all and I loved them. This week we got asparagus which I am really excited about because I love it but never buy it. WE also got a full pineapple....YUM. Anyway, the site for it is http://www.bountifulbaskets.org/. It is horribly confusing, but so worth it. This is what we ended up with the first time we got it. WE ate it all!!

Baby time!

By -
So, I had my first appointment today to confirm that baby #2 is on its way. Sure enough, a quick little heartbeat was going strong. We can't wait, well, actually, I think we can. It will be much easier to wait for this one seeing that we have an 18 month old that keeps us very busy, but we are really excited for it to come around December 2nd ish. We are really excited for Mason to be a big brother because he is so sweet with babies these days and seems to actually enjoy them. I am 12 weeks and feeling pretty rotten. I guess that just helps me know that things are going okay with baby. Poor Mason has been watching alot of TV in the mornings and has not had as much play time with mom. It makes me sad, but you do what you gotta do to get by. Deep down i kind of want another boy, so I am pretty confident that it is a girl. Dan doesn't care at all, and I really don't either, but for some reason girls scare me. We are excited to see what we are going to get this time ...

Only Blue for us!

Yes, it's true, we are having another boy. I always imagined having two little boys running around and we are so excited for Mason to have a little bro. There are so many fun things to look forward to with having little boys so close. Can't wait for all of the baseball games, basketball games, guitar and drum lessons.....or ballet lessons if they so choose. Whatever the case, we can't wait to have two little boys.

Presents for Mason

By -
I am just wondering if anyone has suggestions for best gifts for a 2 year old boy. We don't buy toys very often so I always want them to be really good. What are the best toys out there. I am thinking a play kitchen? Play food? I just want to know if there is anything that Mason should not be going without. K- please help.
