Some New Favorites!!

So one of my friends posts some of the new favorite things in her life every week and I love this idea! This might turn out to be a very random weekly blog entry but at least it's something to give you a little glimpse into my very simple life!

1)Orbit has always been my most favorite gum but I've always stuck to Wintermint. I accidentally bought Sweet Mint recently and it's been the best mistake ever. I LOVE this flavor and it definitely takes my coffee breath away every morning! If you're looking for a new gum to try I highly recommend this one!

2) True Blue Spa Shea Cashmere Hand Cream! One of my coworkers introduced me to this fabulous lotion and I just fell in love with it when I tried it. We wash our hands so much at work that they are basically raw. So this nice little treat every day definitely helps with the pain. Bath and Body Works, oh how I love thee!


3) Pita Puffs! We've started shopping at Trader Joes more often lately and I came across this fantastic snack this past weekend. They're fun to eat and decently healthy! YUM YUM

6 Months of Updating :)

Okay so once again I'm on the path towards updating my blog more often. No promises yet but shooting for at least two a month lol but hopefully more like once a week! So here goes half a year of updates with a few pictures in between!!

October 2009 - We decided to make tshirts at work to celebrate Halloween baby style. I ironed on letters with phrases that related to working with infants and of course we had to wear pjs for pants! Some tshirt examples included: Spit up happens, Party in my crib at midnight, Sometimes I poop...up my back, Where's my paci, and Naptime is my favorite! (of course the naptime shirt was mine) :)


November 2009 - Thanksmas or shall we say getting the stomach flu on the drive from Nashville to Dallas and pretty much barely surviving in time to drive back to Nashville after four days of ugh. Of course I was a nice wife and gave this lovely gift to my husband so we pretty much spent the holiday in bed but at least we managed to surface for a picture with our matching tshirts!


December 2009 - Christmas!! Thankfully we were much healthier this go around to TX. We were able to to see lots of family and had a great time escaping from the real world in Nashville. It even snowed while we were there and we went with my family to see ICE at the Gaylord :) We also celebrated our first anniversary in this month but I failed to take a pic...we were in the airport flying back to TN after Christmas, I'll try harder next year to capture anniversary number two!


January 2010 - Tiffany came to visit and we went to see Carrie Underwood in concert at the Ryman! I managed to take zero pictures during this visit but I at least managed to steal a couple from Tiffany on facebook!


February 2010 - Happy Valentine's Day and good bye vegetarian Tyler :) Tyler cooked a delicious Valentine's dinner for me this year, I have pics but can't find them, woops. Like I said, I'm working on the whole taking more pics and actually keeping track of them. After two years of only eating veggies my hubby finally decided to enter the real world of meat eating again. A friend from the studio took us out to eat at Chick-Fil-A for this exciting event and Tyler had his first chicken sandwich in over two years. Pretty sure they could sell an ad campaign saying "Our chicken is so good even vegetarians can't resist us!"


March 2010 - Happy Birthday Tyler, Goodbye wisdom teeth, and Hello Abilene!! Tyler turned 25 this year and shortly after we were in TX again celebrating a friends wedding in Abilene and somewhere in there I had all of my wisdom teeth pulled. My dad got Tyler his first record player for his birthday and he said it was like Christmas when he unwrapped it! Now he has a new hobby and can listen to big boppin beats at home. We were also able to celebrate his birthday in TX with family and ate at Babe's to have some good old country cooking. Abilene was next on the visit! I hadn't been back since my grad school graduation in August 2008 and it was sooo much fun getting to see old friends and of course eating wedding cake!


Well it looks like we're all caught up! Hallelujah!! Up next...a few of my favorite things :)
