My Fab 5

Thanks to Trop 50 for sponsoring my writing about fabulous bloggers. This year Trop50 is granting 50 fabulous wishes. Click here to enter for a chance to win $1,000 to help grant a friend’s wish!

I read A LOT of blogs.
My Google Reader is constantly jam packed with new stuff to read.
My bookmarked blogs….it takes over 1 minute to scroll through them all.
Even thought I read A LOT of blogs, I do have a few that are my favorites and are must reads every time there is an update, therefore, I present to you……
My Fab 5!
My Fab 5 is a list of five fabulous bloggers that I cannot get enough of.
For me, the word fabulous when describing a blogger means someone who puts them self out there and doesn’t hold back. These people are not afraid to be themselves and share what is really on their minds. These people have made me laugh, cry, dream, and so, so much more!

So, here they are, in no particular order, My Fab 5!
** Heather Spohr from The Spohrs Are Multiplying**
** Brittany Gibbons from Barefoot Foodie**
** Shauna Glenn from Is It 5 O’clock Yet?**
** Matt Logelin from Matt, Liz and Madeline**
** Alaina Sheer from Ms. Single Mama**

Each one of these bloggers encompasses something that I find fabulous with each word they write and I eat up every piece of it!

Don’t forget to enter the 50 Fabulous Wishes contest for a chance to win $1,000 to support a friend’s wish. I was selected for this Tropicana Trop50 sponsorship by the Clever Girls Collective, which endorses

The Chalkboard Tee by Class Attire Review & Giveaway – Ends 2/7/11

This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Leah.
My little Alexander LOVES LOVES LOVES to draw.
He will draw on anything.
Walls.
Tables.
Paper.
Books.
You name it.
His new favorite thing to draw on?
His awesome Chalkboard Tee from Class Attire.

Most parents are constantly trying to keep their kids clothes all clean and perfect but who are they fooling?  Kids are kids and getting dirty is one of the things they do best, so why not give them a piece of clothing that is meant to get dirty?

Alexander is loving his new Chalkboard Tee and has been having a ton of fun coloring it up!

The cool thing about the Chalkboard Tee is that is comes packaged in a mailing tube that can easily be converted into a bank and it includes a letter showing you different ways to reuse the shirt once your child has outgrown it!

Oh and did I mention that the chalk is included and the shirt even has a built-in Chalk-It…a pocket for your chalk!

How fun!!!!

I love my Green Bay Packers!

If you haven’t heard, there is a little football game happening this Sunday in Chicago.

Nothing huge…just the NFC Championship game.
The best part…my beloved Green Bay Packers are playing in it.
And they are going to win.
Because….they are playing the Bears.
And as we all know……

So, since I will be busy prepping for the game on Sunday….by prepping I mean making sure everyone’s green and gold apparel is clean, laid out and ready to wear, the fridge and cupboards are filled with snacks and beverages, the living room is arranged so we have the best view of the TV and the house is decorated accordingly…..

as I was saying….since I will be busy prepping, I leave you with some amazing entertainment because really…..WE LOVE THE GREEN AND GOLD!

And right now….I’m Feelin So Fly Like a Cheesehead!

GO PACK GO!!!!




Getting Fit Update

2 weeks down and a long long way to go. I’m currently at an 11 pound weightloss and I am proud of it.
11 pounds is a lot but there is still a long road ahead.
I’m doing pretty good with sticking to good eating habits but I will admit that this past weekend, I didn’t eat so healthy.
It was a very stressful weekend and we went out to eat Saturday night for dinner and then the Alex and I went out for breakfast alone on Sunday morning and I indulged myself once again.
Needless to say, I’m working at burning those bad calories off and kicking myself in the ass at the same time!
I’ve been eating A LOT of fresh vegetables too and am enjoying it!
I’m anxiously waiting for Wednesday to arrive and for my new shoes to be delivered so the Mall walking with Alexander can resume.

Aren't they cute!?

I picked these bad boys up from Payless.com for under $30 with shipping thanks to the awesome coupon I found online.
I had been searching for a pair of shoes like these for quite some time but nobody stocks them in my size since I have ginormous feet!
I can’t wait to get them on my feet and put them to work!!

That’s all I have for now. I’m hoping for a good update next Monday when I weigh in again and I also hope to post some more recipes this week. I’m planning on trying out a new recipe for some yummy Oatmeal Raisin bar snacky things!
