Family Bed

I took the boys to an organic farm last weekend. We stayed 2 nights and the kids loved sharing the big king sized bed.
A platform bed made sharing the bed with little ones seem easier and safer, because we were closer to the ground.

Sweet Cribs

If I have a 3rd baby, I'm going to be really tempted by all of the cute mod cribs out there these days, even though we already have a suitable used one.
Repleate with teeth marks.
This is one of my favorites:
At over $1,000, it is waaaay out of my price range, but adorable, yes?

Sigh. Those Scandinavian designers and their simplistic yet expensive pieces get me every time.

Home Soda Maker Review and Giveaway

Have you heard of the Fountain Jet Home Soda Maker from Soda Stream?

It helps reduce the amount of waste generated from consuming soda, because instead of buying disposable 3-liter bottles or canned soda, you can continually re-use the same 2 Soda Stream containers for your soda needs.

You save money making your own soda at home, and, even better, this soda mix contains less sugar than pre-made sodas.



The Fountain Jet Home Soda Maker uses regular water mixed with the Soda Stream flavoring of your choice to make your ideal drink.

I got the chance to review the Penguin Soda Maker, the classy version that uses glass bottles.

Sorry for the background noise, my niece was begging for jelly beans that she is forbidden to eat by my sister-in-law, who wasn't present.


1) Enter to win your very own Fountain Jet soda lover’s start-up kit which includes a Fountain Jet home soda maker, CO2 to make over 100 liters of soda, a variety sample pack of sodamix and MyWater trial-sized flavors, and 3 full-sized flavors of the winner’s choice. The retail value of this prize is $99.99!


1.) For a chance to win, visit the site and tell me your favorite
sodamix flavor and what excites you about making soda at home!

1 winner will be chosen by random number generator.

This giveaway is open to those with a continental US mailing address. No PO Boxes.

CSN Stores

CSN Toys was able to send us some cool Indiana Jones Legos, though they arrived after Jojo's party, they had great communication with me via email and twitter to remedy the back order as soon as possible.

Thanks CSN for great customer service!

Shop-a-ganza!

The boys are finally old enough for bunk beds (sort of) and they are in some (disconnected) metal frame ones in the room they share.
BUT I can't help but dream of the fancy ones at the CSN store. Check out the Mission Merlot Series Extra Long Triple Lindy Loft with Third Bed, of for a pirate theme room (my dream :), there is the Shiver Me Timbers Youth Bunk Bed.
I have visions of Jojo and Deeds growing up as best buds as well as brothers. I hope they have lots of great memories in their shared room.

I recently ordered the Indiana Jones Temple Escape Building Set, also from CSN stores!
I can't wait to give it to Jojo! We are going to have so much fun with it!
He will be primed and prepped to indulge in my new favorite website, http://www.doityourself.com/
I'm going to go look for some home made cleaning recipes.
