After our 11th day in a row of temperatures over 100 degrees, I had to venture out of the house this afternoon because we had absolutely no groceries. So, I decided to run by Right Start (the best store in the world if you have babies/young kids....and I don't know how to put a link on here, otherwise I would do that underline thingy that directs you to their website) and then I was going to the grocery store. Well, I went by both - and when I got home, I could hardly believe the weird and random assortment of things I had purchased....and the money I had spent. I guess I just need to stay in the cave and stick to my budget. But here is a sampling of what I was up to this afternoon:
A.) Tony Romo Infant Jersey....totally tacky but hilarious. This may redeem myself in Robert's eyes for spending money on useless junk. If ya'll want one just head to your local Albertson's...they are $19.99. (p.s. I tried to find a Demarcus Ware one to represent AHS - but they don't make his jersey in infant sizes)
B.) Bebe Pod Infant Seat....chose this one instead of the Bumbo b/c the folks at Right Start said you can use it longer and the back is higher and the places for the legs are wider than the Bumbo seat (good thing if you've seen Mac's thighs) ....so I guess we will try it out sometime soon.
C.) Skinny Cows...what more can I say than its 105 degrees outside.
D.) Mustela Sunscreen...my pale little nino is going to be needing the SPF 50 at the beach next week.
E.) Skwish Classic (its the colorful toy)...have no clue what it does, but again - the folks at Right Start acted like if Mac didn't have this toy he probably wouldn't make it to Kindergarten. (Note: All of a sudden, I am noticing a pattern....I put a whole lot of stock in what the folks at Right Start say...I guess I have sucker written across my forehead each time I enter that store).
F.) Key Lime Yogurt....my breakfast item of choice.
G.) Tostado Shells....bought these along with all of the fixin's for my dinner tonight, as today - August 4, 2008 marks my return to the kitchen after my 6 month + hiatus. Thanks Ging Ging for dinner idea!
F.) Santa Margherita 2006 Chianti Classico......again, have no clue why I bought this but they had a little booth set up at Albertson's and Judy, who is in charge of the wine and beer department at Albertson's, is an exceptionally good saleswoman and I must have either looked like I needed a glass of wine or again, I am a sucker - but she said I had to get it because it was $7.00 off the regular price....
G.) US Weekly - "New Mom Diet Secrets - How They Get Thin Fast"....pretty sure I won't follow any of their "tips or suggestions"....another Skinny Cow and a glass of Chianti, please.....but I'd get thin fast too if I had trainers, chefs, nannies.... :)
H.) People - "The Twins"....I, along with the rest of the world, had to see what the Brangelina babies looked like. They're cute.
I.) Sprite...I am just tired of drinking water so I am moving onto Sprite. And the little cans are 100 calories.
Well.....have to go run start dinner & read my magazines. Oh - and one more thing....I joined Facebook. Probably the worst decision I've made in a long time, as I am not sure my bed is going to be made all week since I am spending every free moment adding and confirming friends...but it's fun and I recommend it. Hope ya'll have a good week!
