Good Books

I just finished reading these two books, which came highly recommended by my sister:

I guess I can't technically have an opinion (at least an opinion that matters) on these until I actually have a baby and see if the techniques work. But they were both really, really good.

My favorite part about the The Baby Whisperer is when she talks about how there are five basic types of babies. One of the types is grumpy. She says that grumpy babies are "old souls" who have been on earth before in a different life. The hilarious thing is that she actually believes it. So obviously, her religious beliefs are slightly different than mine, but I still loved the book. I really hope that if Ashlyn is a grumpy baby that she was something really cool in her last life like a geisha or a superhero.

I would also recommend this book.

Gooper Scooper

I just wanted to say happy birthday to my very favorite little brother.


If I had one of these Happy Birthday Cupcake Mugs, I would totally give it to you, but I don't have one, so sorry. But I am singing the Gilmore Girls version of "Happy Birthday" to you right now.

My Hair Is Curly From All The Sweat

I so, so, SO wish it was cold enough to wear one of these or one of these.

Let's all pray that when I'm pregnant with baby #2, EJ and I are living in Alaska.

They need engineers there, right?
