30 Day....No Fizz Challenge

Drinking Pepsi is something pretty much everyone in my life jokes about...it's my biggest vice by far.  While trying to eat healthy it's one thing that keeps coming back up.  So while searching for support on giving up this (nasty) habit, I came across No Fizz Charlotte and their 30 day challenge.




The website has great information, and I signed up to receive an email with further resources.  Looking forward to seeing what they send along.

So...30 days...aim to drink 60oz of water, and avoid soda.  Sounds like a plan!

Holidays are coming! First step?

I LOVE the holidays, I always have. But now that I have a little one, it takes on a whole new meaning.  I can't wait to share our excitement with everyone else too! It's Christmas card time!

I think was about a month ago that I started looking into what cards to pick. We had our family pictures done, and so I had to wait til they were done before I could do the final design. After looking at all the different suppliers online, and reading lots of revues, I came to the decision that the best quality and selection are with Shutterfly!

The only problem now is picking a card, there are so many amazing designs! Check them out!  While waiting to order my cards I also played around with a lot of other products available on the site. In particular the photo books are fantastic, and I plan to order a couple as a Christmas present to me!

Don't celebrate Christmas? Not a problem...they have New Year's cards too.  Such a great idea.

So go check it out, and hey, if you are a blogger too, you can get 50 FREE CARDS! Seriously, you can't go wrong!  Off to make my final selection.

Things I love < A series >

I love stuff...I love researching stuff...it's an addiction. But I figure there has to be some good that comes from it.  Before I was even  TTC  I studied fertility friend like it was nobody's business.  Then came cloth diapers. Then once I got pregnant...watch out. From strollers to car seats, cribs and curtains. you name it, I knew ALL about it.

So I figured I should share some of that knowledge for everyone.  IRL I have friends who don't even bother looking into things themselves. One of my gf asked me "so, what carseat are we buying?" lol  So I figured I would start with the things I've actually researched and purchased for myself. And then I'll probably just start listing some of my 'wish list' stuff too.

Any products you are particularly interested in? Let me know...I'll see what I can do!

My big Bro is married!

So I've mentioned on here before about the bridesmaids dress I had to wear, and how I wasn't all that excited about it.  Well, regardless of how I felt/looked, the main point of the day was that my brother was marrying his best friend.  It was a fantastic day, they were both beautiful, and I was so happy to be there with them.



And of course...Miss Lyla was absolutely beautiful!

Proud of my hubby

Summer vacations are always hard for us to come by.  It's a busy time of year for our work, so usually we just make due with a couple of long weekends.  This year however, G had a ball tournament that matched up with my brothers wedding so we figured we would make an event out of it.  The first weekend we had the wedding and then we stayed for the whole week.

G has been playing fastball his whole life, and he's very dedicated. This year his team decided to really go for it and prepare for nationals.  Over the past 6 months or so, he has really pushed himself, lost some weight, and has been in the best shape I've seen him in a long time.

He is a real leader on the field, has such an amazing drive, and he's an awesome player.  Plus...he's pretty hot in his uniform too! lol
