more than a year has passed since my last blog post. guess i can't deliver on that promise to let people know what we're doing... unless you count Facebook, instagram, FaceTime, etc. i'm sort of getting a blogging bug again but this time, no promises. i may publish posts, i may keep them private. i'm likely changing the name again... haven't cared for it for awhile- is that a plausible excuse for not blogging? regardless, let's see where this goes, shall we?

It's been awhile...
Well blogger land, it's been awhile. Months, actually. A lot of things have changed, as they do in life and in the lifetime of a child... To begin with, updates on Mr. B-man...
He is fully potty-trained... well maybe not fully. I gave in and got pull-ups for night time. He's been dry though for the past three mornings, so we're definitely getting there. He doesn't wear them at naptime or any other time, so I'm pretty pleased with the success. It took about a week, back in May and then there was an accident here and there, but mostly just success.
We are slowly getting into TotSchool at our house. Sloooowly... I'll get better about planning in advance and getting real themes down. So far it's mostly painting and stuff, but we're at least working on something a few times a week!
His favorite thing to ask is "what's her/his name?" All the time. In line at Target, at the library, everywhere. And then when that person says "My name is Bob (or whatever), what's yours?" he buries his face in my shoulder and won't say anything. Some would say that's the smartest thing he could do!
B has had his hair actually cut twice. It's all boy and super cute.
He's SO obsessed with trains. Any and all trains, it's a little out of control. They're totally taking over our house and this Saturday we're going to actually ride on Thomas. He doesn't even know, but I know he's going to be SO excited.
... I could go on and on, but then honestly, I'd probably never finish and post this. So in order to get back on the blogging wagon, I'll post now and be done. This way I'll keep things for the next post :) I really will be back soon! with pictures!

smiling makes me happy
i'm a poor blogger right now. i mean, really. i have almost nothing to talk about it seems. or maybe it's just a lack of motivation. there's actually a lot going on right now, but nothing to talk about yet. instead, i'll revert back to an easy post & just share what's making me happy lately!
my nook. love, love, love it. i was really unsure if i'd like it at all, but i got it for vacation & i fell in love. i'm a total book nerd & anytime i go anywhere i take at least 2 books with me. sometimes more like 7. the nook really cuts down on the bulk.
my new sister (in law). i finally have one! mike's brother got married this weekend & i get a sister now. cool, right? plus, i was her personal attendant & i had so much fun running my ass off to get everything ready in time. so much fun.
the new cookie lee catalog. the bangles. the bella ring. there's so much cute stuff, i want it all. love, love, love (just like my nook).
the $50 coach gift card i got in the mail today. i immediately told mike & his response? 'what will you buy?' how awesome is that? (considering i just bought a new bag on vacation a couple weeks ago...)
4 bedroom houses with fenced in back yards.
sweet leather couches found in the paper that you get an amazing deal on! go mike.
mickey mouse clubhouse. makes b laugh. makes me laugh at him. totally a tolerable kid's show.
'oh toodles!!'
our fabulous couple friends.

back from the lake.
back.
we (sort of) spontaneously went on vacation at the lake last week & it was glorious. we boated, we floated, we shopped, we ate, we drank & we got tan. b's obsessed with the boat, which is pretty adorable & pretty convenient too, since he loved it so much he willingly napped on it.
and now we're home. i've got lots coming up... big wedding weekend for my brother in law, big wedding shower/bachelorette party weekend for one of my best friends next weekend, big wedding weekend for another friend the following. august = wedding.
b's getting 5 new teeth all at once. this will more than double the amount in his mouth. he's a bit cranky, but i suppose i would be too, what with 5 things piercing through my gums. ugh.
i have reviews/giveaways i need to work on, as always & we have big personal changes coming up. aaaand the new cookie lee catalog is coming out! yay!
stay tuned.

Well this is long overdue... I apologize for being so mia, I had a good friend in for a few days & with our new summer weather, we've been on the go, so blogging has fallen by the wayside.

For now, I'll leave you with the Yoreganics laundry trio & lip balm winner- Rebecca! She won with her entry about wanting to try the lip balm & now she gets too- she will love it, I just know it!
Thanks for entering everyone... & thanks for reading!
Rebecca- I have emailed you & you have 24 hours to respond, or I'll have to draw a new winner. :)

back and better than ever
I'm back!
And I've got a new layout... a new review coming WITH a giveaway- stay tuned people, stay tuned!
And I'm in the process of actually upgrading my computer in general, although I'm sort of waiting for this one to completely crap out... so it may be a few months still. However, I do have my new one all picked out. And I'm. in. love.
New home- better than ever
New blog layout- better than ever
New New New! (who doesn't love to get new things?)
