Car Seat Alert

Car seats are recommended to stay refacing until the age of 2 now. Here is an article on it.

This is good knowledge if you have babies. I was getting happy that in 3 months I could turn Tavin around but nope. Which is fine as long as he is safe.

Veggies Please

I am now a vegetarian, I know its weird I love meat but not after all this education I recently got.

Tyler and I have been watching Documentaries, we are old and like to be educated, and we watched this one "Food Inc." If you like meat don't watch it. I just cant believe how mass produced everything is and how it is all so full of hormones and how cruel the animals are treated. I know just me not eating meat isn't going to change all of this but I just cant do it anymore.

Well this is my all time favorite market here in Point Loma were we live. It is a co-op so everything is locally grown and fresh and organic!!!!

We also have a farmers market every wednesday night so this is were we get a lot of our fruits and veggies I love the freshness and the experience of the out side market.

I love the taste of meat so this has been kinda hard for me but I am happy with my choice.

Happy 4th of July

My fourth of July has been filled with family, the beach, the mall, relaxing, movies and so much yummy food. I hope yours is just as great. Stay safe.

In the state of California you cant light your own fire works:( But it is so much fun to watch the ones they light off the pier.

Things I want

I love many things. On my list of things I want are.....

The I-Pad, I would love to have one just for fun I don't need it, hence why i haven't bought one

Ok this stroller is a must when I have a little girl. The Juicy sales lady was trying so hard to have me buy it, great commission for sure, but I said it would just be cruel to put my son in a pink juicy stroller. When I have a girl this is the first thing on my list.

How freaking cute is this kitchen aid from William Sonoma. When I have my own kitchen this will be mine I promise. It has Jessica written all over it.

Tyler just bought me a pair of Juicy earrings for mothers day, but our anniversary is coming up and I love the banner earrings and neckless that they have out right now.

One day I will have these things and want new things but for now I will dream....

Shower

My little guy loves the shower. Well when Tyler showers Tavin is usually in the bathroom and will peek in at him. The other day I took Tavin with me into the bathroom to keep an eye on him and he peeked in the shower looking for daddy. He waits a while, looks around, and right as I turn around, bam, he is in the shower. I swear its something new ever day and I love it. He climbs up over the little step and crawls around laughing and smiling looking at the drain and then he climbed right back out with no problem. It is crazy to me how he is just so strong and mobile.
