A Little Person is Coming!



...and they need a bed! Hubby and I just ordered a white 4 in 1 crib for our baby girl off of Amazon! Along with a pink breathable bumper (don't ask what a breathable bumper is verses a regular one, just imagine a lot of research online), a turtle crib sheet (turtles are mom's favorite cuz they reminder her of Hawaii), a birdie crib sheet (dad's favorite, cuz he is into birds lately) and a white and pink crib skirt, we are going to have one good looking crib soon!!!! The only thing we are missing is a mattress! We tried to order one from Amazon but they wanted to charge us $55 for shipping which is crazy!! The mattress only cost $80 bucks so we hit the delete button and will be heading to Babies R US or Target to get one of those.

This week, hubby and I also decided on our colors for the nursery. We are going with "Hawaiian Shell" and "Smoked Oyster." Imagine a soft pink and a soft brown/grey. Not sure if brown/grey is a good description but it sorta looks brown and it sorta looks grey. Anyhow, when I saw the words "Hawaiian Shell" I just knew it had to be for us as we LOVE Hawaii and can't wait to take baby girl to our favorite place in the world!!

But before we can paint, we need to have a garage sale to get rid of a ton of stuff, which I hope to have at the end of August. Once that is done, we can move the rest of the furniture from the office to our Bonus Room which is currently too full to hold one more thing. Then we can paint! So if anyone likes to paint we will be needing some services soon cuz hubby hates to paint and I am supposed to be staying away from the fumes. Oh Krueger!!! I think I remember you saying you liked to paint!!

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
