Random thoughts of a lazy blogger....

So I haven't had any great things inspire me to blog lately but I do have some random things to share with my good ol' blogging friends out there:

  • I came across this great website this afternoon and am excited to try some things with Abigail. I love the idea of doing some more organized activities with Abigail as she gets older and think it'll be important for me to have some specific things to do with her once baby #2 comes along to help her feel secure and not threatened by the new baby. Check it out:
Tot School

  • One of my girlfriends sent me the link to this cool website that repairs jeans and also converts your regular jeans to maternity jeans and then back again...how cool is that! I don't know if I'll do it this pregnancy since I think I have enough jeans but I'll keep it in mind. Check it out at denimtherapy.com.

  • I never thought I'd say this but sometimes I really think I want to buy a minivan!!! I said I'd never drive a minivan and I recall a conversation years ago between My Prince and I where I made him promise to never make me drive a minivan....but seriously those things look so convenient! I currently drive a midsized SUV and thought it would for sure work with two maybe even three kids but after taking it to Chicago a few weeks ago I don't know how well it will even work with two kids. At one point I rode in the back with Abigail to help entertain her and I thought I was going to go crazy! I was scrunched in the middle with her car seat crowding me on one side and the driver's seat crowding me on the other side. I was trying to imagine sitting in the middle with an infant seat next to the other window and just didn't see that working....at all! When I see mom's easily putting infant car seat into minivans as their toddlers climb into the van all by themselves I think they look great! So we'll see what happens when baby number two arrives this January.

That's all for now....hopefully I'll have some more interesting things to blog about soon.

I have a love hate relationship with my mini, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I've even caught myself pointing out newer models and ones in different colors and saying "oh, I like that...".
