a few cool things...

So here are a few cool things that I like lately that I thought I would share:

1. Heel-tastic. Don't laugh. It's one of those "as seen on TV things" that was an impulse buy at the check out at Target last week ($9) that is awesome. Really works. My family all makes fun of me that I am a bit obsessed with staying moisturized--come on-who likes dry skin?????

2. Lands End overstocks. They have some incredible deals on swimsuits right now. I love buying out of season and got a few great ones for really cheap. Can you tell I'm ready for summer?

3. Kids chopsticks. Took the boys out for Japanese the other night and these were such a hit that Andrew even ate sushi (he has always been our adventurous eater). So cute.

4.Groupon. Can't tell you how many good deals we have gotten lately. Really worth it.

5. Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Nibs. For those of you blessed enough to have a Trader Joe's in your area- these are at the check out. Little can of tiny chocolate pieces that fit right in your purse--simply perfect. We LOVE Trader Joe's.

"Superbrothers"

So the lead up to this picture was watching the boys run out of Ethan's room yelling "SUPERBROTHERS"---cracks me up when Andrew allows Ethan to dress him. Fun to see them love each other--most of the time at least.

violence...

So today the conversation goes something like this:

Scene: I am being attacked by 2 little boys in robes with swords (calling themselves "bad" bible guys--what?!?!?!?).

Ethan says out of nowhere "Well Mommy, if we ever have any more babies in this family I sure hope it's a girl."

Me: "Why is that?"

Ethan: "There's just too much violence around here don't you think?"
