By the way, we did get a new laptop this last weekend (which is why I can resume with some boring posts in the meantime), but it has Windows 8 which I'm having a really hard time getting used to. Anyone else having troubles switching? It is not very intuitive. Seriously think I'm going to have to watch probably some 6 year old on YouTube do a training video.
Anyways, here are some of my favorite things lately, so thought I'd pass along:
Shout Color Catchers: Throw in any laundry combination and these things are amazing-- they suck up all the dye from your dark/colored clothes. I wish I would have used these a long time ago cause I never really sort my clothes like I should.
Kleenex Cool Touch: I have had a killer cold this week and these things are a lifesaver! They are so much better than any of the tissues with lotion. These things are NOT greasy like the lotion ones, but I can blow my nose 50 times/day and it doesn't get sore. They are really soft and feel cool...just like the name!
Television Shows: We have just finished getting caught up on the current seasons of Breaking Bad, Homeland, and Dexter....all outstanding!
Apps: SongPop is my favorite; Wheels on the Bus is my favorite for Lachlan
Wool Cover: I HIGHLY recommend the Etsy shop My Eco Baby. Look at all of her CUTE designs that she makes from old sweaters! I did a custom order of a black/gray soaker with an owl applique. Besides being cute, these things have been a lifesaver. We were getting night diaper leaks nearly every night, so I bought one of these for him to wear over his diaper. Wool can absorb like 40% of its weight and I soak it about once per week in a lanolin solution so it repels the moisture away from his skin. It has worked like a champ! I'm thinking of buying another one. I don't have a picture right now of mine, but here is a cute one:
McDonald's Grilled Onion and Cheddar Burger: This is a score cause it is on the dollar menu...holler! It tastes pretty much just as you imagine-- the flavor of McDonald's, but the grilled onions had a great grilled flavor. My only complaint was that it comes dry...I got a side of their Hot Mustard to dip it in.
