Here Comes Baby!

I totally starting to freak out about babe #2 making his arrival. The Steenblik's came into town and helped relieve some of my anxiety by painting what is going to be a playroom for the boys. Judes and I made a trip to IKEA and found some super cute decorations (all for under $100). Now my poor husband is trying to clean out our basement and organize all of the CRAP we have accumulated over the last almost 8 yrs. because frankly, lifting ANYTHING makes me feel like George is on his way out....not good! There is nothing quite like thinking that there is a arm or leg making its way out of your 'you know what!'

Has anyone heard about this new Federal Law mandating stores that sell anything for children to undergo new health testing? Well apparently as of February all children's items have to meet new requirements and although this is a good thing, stores that are already opened and fully stocked have to pay tens of thousands of dollars to meet the new requirements or close their doors. I found this out when Judes and I visited the cute store Tiara (in Sugarhouse across from the post office) because they had a 50% off EVERYTHING
sign up. They are closing their store and if you haven't been in there---IT IS SUPER CUTE. Needless to say Judes spoiled me and bought the diaper bag I have been wanting. We couldn't pass up 50% off, so I got a "Ju-Ju-Be" bag from JuJuBee (that is what Liam calls her.....cute huh?!) Oh, and this cute outfit for George.

Pamper Me PLEASE!!

I'm not ashamed to admit it...i love to be pampered. Whether it come in the form of a sweet treat, pedicure or a few minutes childless to take a bath, I'm happy. If you are ever in need of a GREAT & CHEAP pedicure you have to go to New Diamond Nails off of Highland Dr. & 3900 S (by the soccer store). Pearl gives a pedicure to die for. 

Matt has the day off tomorrow and told me to go get a massage (my personal fav). So without batting an eye it was scheduled. I'm not thrilled at the thought of laying my mammoth sized-half naked body on a table for some poor soul, but all I can say is "sucker." I'm not going for the 50 min/$25 song & dance......I'm talking 2hr/$50. Yes...all 1?? lbs of me will be nude & comatose for 2 hrs tomorrow & I couldn't be happier. For those of you in SLC who have not had the pleasure of taking advantage of the Healing Mountain Massage School click on the link & check it out!

Snow Fun


Matty being the amazing dad he is came home from working a night shift and took Liam out to play in the snow. I personally HATE the snow and all things cold so I watched from afar and took pictures. Liam became obessed with "Frosty the Snowman" this Christmas so here is one of the many Frostys he and Matt have made. Yes that is oreo all over his face....he confiscated an oreo eye from one of the snow snake/dinos in the other picture. What can I say he takes after me, if you see something tastey-EAT IT!

What We've Been Up To

So I'm trying to figure this blogger thing out...I know its not that hard, but I loved my mac website but have gotten to cheap to keep it up. I don't even know the last thing I blogged about but here is the latest: I'm super fat, Xmas was a blast in AZ & Liam is still my crazy little monster! Here is a pic from Xmas morning in our PJs and some of the AZ crew on a hayride at Old MacDondald's Ranch. Sorry for the generic post, but I'll get the hang of it or so I hope.
