Move on over Oprah, here are some of MY favorite things

So, I can't have all of you in my living room as my audience while I show you these items and give them all to you for free in the end.. BUT I can share with you the things that keep me going each week. Every Friday I'll share a few things that are my favs. Don't expect any free cars or trips to Hawaii though. Anywho, here are some of my faaavorite things:

Live Clean Baby Shampoo & Wash - If you catch a whiff of this, you won't need to know any more. It smells SO damn good and is gentle for your baby's skin. PLUS it's mega green for our planet! I Just picked up the jumbo size bottle of shampoo & moisturizer at Winners for $20! Which is great because I use the moisturizer on my own skin as well.  Find a store that sells these products near you here --> Live Clean Baby Products



Starbucks Peppermint Mocha & Cranberry Bliss Bars - HELLO! I live on these. My chequing account and my love handles can prove it. I found you the bliss bars recipe, your welcome! --> Cranberry Bliss Bar



Big Rich Texas - If you are a rich chick reality show junkie like myself, you need to watch this series. I'm obsessed with all the Real Housewives shows, and when I started going through withdrawals while no new seasons were on, my lovely aunt shared with me this substitute! Watch it online at this super duper stream tv website! --> http://www.tv-links.eu/








 

H&M Accessories - H&M is my one stop shop if I need to throw an outfit together. It's also the BEST place to grab some trendy accessories to bring an outfit up to speed. If I've recently chopped up my credit card but need some retail therapy or a facelift for an outfit, i race to H&M. PLUS it's so damn cheap!



Happy Friday mamas,

Oh baby baby! 1 + 1 = double stroller?! Yikes.

So apparently we don't waste any time...I have an 11 month old and am 5 months preggers! YIKES. I'm terribly excited and terrified at the same time. The news of being pregnant wasn't so life altering as the last.

The first time wasn't so...planned. OK well we weren't on the pill so we knew it could happen. But at that time, I was serving overpriced drinks and appies at a restaurant, partying my fanny off and my bf and I spent our weekends drinking beer and snowboarding. I came home one night, pee'd on a stick and threw it at my bfs head while sobbing. He's 11 years older to he was less terrified than I. ANYWAY jump to 3(ish) months ago when I pee'd on that damn stick again. We were both so excited to have have another little baybay. My daughter is the best thing that's ever happened to us and we had a hard time grasping that we're getting that gift again. So what did I do once I found out the second time? Tossed the stick in the garbage, yelled the result across the house and grabbed my laptop to start...shopping! Derrr.

SO obvy we need a double stroller as my little crawling machine is not yet sontering through the mall beside me. I have a Mountain Buggy Urban right now, I love it for trails - hate it for shopping. I'm going to keep it, but need something for both little monkeys. So after doing much momma research and googling. I've found this: the Baby Jogger City Select is the cats ass. I saw a mom with the double at the mall the other day, when I stopped her to ask if she liked it, her face lit up as if she was so glad someone asked. She loved it, everyone else loves it, if you're looking for the ultimate tandem double stroller, you may love it too. Check er out mamas...

If you want further comments on my Mountain Buggy, feel free to ask. It's the best jogging stroller out there, hands down. I'm sad that the runway collection wasn't out when i bought mine, they're purdy!
