I'm trying to win a Dyson are you?

So, there's this contest going on over at The Domestic Diva Blog, where her and Dyson are giving away this cool PINK Dyson for breast cancer awareness month. I've heard they work great and would love to have one. You should hop on over to her blog and check out the details. I hope I win, but good luck to you too!!

Blog Cartoons

over at Pigeon Pair and had to go check out the website

some of them are pretty funny like this one

The Weekend

This weekend, my husband with camping with his friend.

and the dog(s) of course went too. It snowed their first night

Kylee went to her favorite Aunt Brenda's house (actually its her great aunt). Aunt Brenda and Uncle Jim took her to Apple Hill (about 2 hrs from where we live) where you can pick apples and ride on horses and trains and hay rides.

You can also find the perfect pumpkin.

My husband had fun. Kylee had fun.

You ask what did I do?

I stayed home and didn't do anything.

Not Really Wordless, but still Wednesday

A trip to the pharmacy yesterday to get a new prescription and an allergy prescriptioin and of course "soft lips chapstick"...gotta have that.

And if you cant see on the receipt...the medication I was getting has a normal retail price of $4819.00 (can you believe almost $5,000), and I got it for my co-pay price...

Let me just say, I am thankful for insurance, Amen!

Mommy's Day Out

Today, I have the opportunity to have 3 hours without Kylee. I will miss her but I will enjoy my time. Its not that I dont ever get time without her, I do. Whats different this time, is that I do not have any errands to run at all while I do not have her, nor do I have any appointments. Yah! for a few hours of Mommy Time! I was planning to meet a friend for lunch at the Olive Garden, but she just called and cancelled. Not sure what all I will do but I know I will enjoy my 3 hours of Me time and not worry about Kylee or what else needs to be done.

What do you do when you have the chance to have time for yourself?

PJ's for Cheap

I like buying clothes but I have a hard time spending money on pajamas. I'm not sure why. I think it is because all Kylee does is sleep in them and by the time she outgrows them, they are so worn out/stained that I would never give them away as hand-me-downs or sell them.

I came up with a solution:

Some inexpensive flannel from the big discount chain store (1/2 a yard each)

Plus a little sewing time

and you get some cute flannel jammy pants. I also bought some $2 shirts from the big discount chain store. They work great and I've only put about $4 and 20 minutes in each set of jammies.

I made a couple pair of short gaucho like pants and the rest are long pants. They are working out great so far!

warning: these are not flame resistant as says on the label when you buy the fabric. So as long as I keep Ky from smoking in her crib then I think we will be fine.

Does anyone know....?

How to add all the blogs that I read/keep up on to my side bar without having to add each link? I use bloglines, is there anyway to just get the list from there onto my sidebar all in one shot? I have a lot more blogs that I read now and need to update the ones on my page but dont want to have to add them one by one....someone help me???
