Yay! I made it! I really made it! Or, should I say – we made it.  After all, Rissa is an important part of this relationship and milestone. I’ve posted about the boobie awards before and

The best part about spring? Flowers.  Definitely the flowers. Flowers are a great way to brighten up my day, my hubby knows this.  (I did have to forewarn him that I was receiving review flowers

I love music and hope my daughter will too.  She’s been exposed to a variety of music types since she was in utero, although, mostly we listen to hard rock and heavy metal music. Rissa

When I got pregnant, I knew I was going to need different detergent for Rissa’s clothes.  I didn’t know much about what was in detergent – what was safe and what wasn’t.  I bought

I have been wanting to try wool dryer balls since I switched to cloth diapers.  I’ve tried to win them by entering giveaways.  I was uncertain of buying them since I’d also read some

Bridget of Bum Luxury connected with me after reading my update on cloth diapering Rissa for a month. (Whoa time for more updates – still doing it! Loving it! Ha!)  We chatted about cloth

Since I got pregnant with Rissa last year, I started drinking a lot of water.  I was a big soda drinker before that.  I don’t much care for the taste of our water straight

I wish I could remember just how old Riss was when I took this picture, but it was in the first couple months.  I can’t believe how little she was! (Taken with my phone as
