This & That ......

Has anyone out there used the "Bumpits" and liked the results?? I really want to try it but i wonder if it really works. Target now carries them and i'm tempted to go get one. hehe!!

I have been keeping an eye out on all the consignment sales flyer's for this fall. I can't wait. Consignment sale shopping has become my favorite twice a year stock up time for my little girl and now my little guy. It is such a money saver for thrifty moms. You get like new items for a fraction of the price new. So much fun seeking out those boutique items you have been eyeing but don't want to spend $50+ for. Then i have a little extra to spend on accessories. Bows, shoes or even monogramming. I resale my daughters clothing aswell. But sometimes i have a hard time letting go of some things. They just are so darn cute!

I was watching the news and yet again the "Jon and Kate" issue came up. I so loved watching that show. But now i can't even stomach it. It is so sad. It needs to be took off the air. For the kids sake!!! Actually it should have been of the air 2 seasons ago..... I guess that is all i have to say on that.

We are still working on trying to fix the wall paper disaster!!! It is such a mess! We just want to scream and bop someone over the head for putting it up in almost every room in the house. HA! Slowly but surely the house is coming along though. I had a friend over a few days ago and she couldn't understand why we bought a house that needed updating. I said it is a diamond in the rough....it will be nice and we will be able to sit back and look around and say "look what we did"! :) And enjoy our house and yard that we worked for. But as for now i guess people think we are crazy. I happen to enjoy personalizing a home. Nothing like new paint and new flooring and some updating to make you feel good about doing something yourself. But that is just me. I'm a DIY'r! Well when i'm not hugely pregnant anyway. hehe!!

Well that is enough rambling today i guess. More on the house updates later.
