My raging weekend
So, how is it that large, swollen, pregnant women rage all weekend long?
Domestically of course!
For those of you that follow me like a stalker (I love you my stalkers!), you all know that I never leave the house. I just don't- unless it is for school, or work, or mommy-ish type things, you know where to find me 99.99% of the time. But this weekend- I let my hair down and painted the town red!
I wish that I had pictures from the whole weekend, but I left my camera on the charger twice this weekend, which also NEVER happens, of course except for this weekend.
Friday night I went to a cooking party at my neighbor's house where we made Mexican lasagna and cookies- none of which I could eat. Buts that OK, because I went out to dinner with the fam first. Awesome.
THEN- Saturday, one of my BFF's had her baby shower. This is Jenn.
Say Hi Jenn.

Jenn and I are only three weeks apart. How awesome is that? We have known each other since the beginning of high school, I was her maid of honor, and she was in my wedding too. And now, we are knocked up together.


And we are both having boys. Jack belongs to her, while Elliott belongs to me.
Crazy.
Then I got to go have dinner with my mom. We went to a restaurant that I worked at for YEEEEAAAAARRRRS as a waitress, and that was weird. But whatever, my mom was there so I could have been eating snails for all I cared. In the dirt, but with my mom.
Then Sunday, my mom drove out here to go to my cousin's baby shower. I have no pictures from the shower, but I had so much fun. The mom-to-be looks freaking ADORABLE and I had to restrain myself from force feeding her the whole time I was there. She is too cute. Best part was that my ENTIRE family was there, all the women at least, and I love it when my family gets together. So much fun.
My mom came home with me and hung out with the boys, had dinner, I cut her hair, then she helped (made the entire thing) me with Tomas viking costume.
Cory was kind enough to watch the kids for me THE ENTIRE WEEKEND. He is a brave soul.
Thanks honey.
So thats how we roll fool, us pregos.
Top THAT.

WHOOOOOOOOOO WANTS A CLEEEEEEEEAN HOUSE?!
Yesterday I asked my husband to do one teeeeeeeeensie weeeeeensie little thing for me.
Please take down Oliver's old clothes, so that I can start sorting and washing them for Elliott.
Using my Jedi mind trick, it worked! And alas, five minutes later, I watched his car drive away and I was surrounded by three large Ziploc storage bags. Of clothes. To sort. AND wash.
I started sorting.....and they are just SO CUTE, and look at these little itty bitty teeny weeny socks! And look at this adorable little smookums t shirt. And oh! Look! I remember this blanket, this little fuzzy wuzzy...
Then- the inevitable happened. I found another bag. Way up top...
Of course I had to get it. I can't start and then only half ass it. Pfft, I can totally get that bag down, 7 and some odd months pregnant, safely.
Then, the OTHER inevitable happened. Once I got the bag down (which I had NO business moving) there was a big hole in the shelving unit. I can't leave a huge gaping hole in the shelving unit! I HAVE to reorganize the garage now! And what if there are more baby clothes in there?! I MUST SAVE THEM NOW.
So, the short end of it is, I spent the majority of five hours in the garage. Lifting, tossing, sorting, sweeping, cleaning, re-sorting, a.k.a TOTALLY FREAKING THE HELL OUT.
Today?
OUCH.
But the baby's half of Oliver's room (it is still Oliver's room, he is NOT sharing with the teeny baby because it is HIS!! because he is BIG!!!!!) is coming together. The crib is up, the changing table is being (slooooowwwwwwllllllllly) assembled, and now I have laundry to wash for the masses!
Side note- Sonic burger opened up here in our town. I have always seen those commercials, like every 2.5 seconds, and never understood the marketing behind this. Why, oh why, would you spend prime time advertising bucks to advertise for a company that does not exist in South Orange County?!
Now I know why.
Because now that it opened here, I HAD TO HAVE IT.
This is smart on their part, because I do not eat fast food. EVER. Lets face it guys, that stuff is nasty, and you KNOW it is killing you and the planet, SIMULTANEOUSLY.
But this did not stop me from devouring Sonic for dinner with the kiddos and a clumsy car hop on skates that cannot count back correct change.
You know what did stop me from going back?
Heartburn.
Ouch.
XOXO,

Hothouse Botanicals
At Hothouse Botanicals they create bath and body products that are 100% Vegan, contain simple natural ingredients, essential oils, and are housed in recyclable containers. They are totally natural and organic AND are free of harmful preservatives, contain no synthetic fragrances/perfumes and colors, and are Dirty Dozen Free.
They have four signature scents that she develops herself using only essential oils.
Bergamot/Ylang Ylang (a spicy orange floral)
Lavender/Litsea Cubeba (a lavender lemon aroma)
Vanilla/Lime
Hothouse Botanicalls sent me a fabulous little sampling of their products. I received all three of their solid fragrances, as well as her Vanilla Lime Sugar Scrub.
OH. MY. GAWD.

The sugar scrub? HEAVEN. Our youngest has been home sick the past week, and let me tell you....this sugar scrub saved me! Every night I used it in the bath, after the baby went
to bed (for all of two fitful hours at a time!) and it was such a release. And my skin just loved it! You know when you are pregnant, it's like your skin is on fire ALL DAY LONG? It's not just me, is it? This sugar scrub totally killed it for me. Loved it. And it smelled so good! Even my oblivious husband noticed it.

The organic solid perfumes are just as amazing! I loved that
they are solid because then I can put them wherever I want. I discovered that if I put them on my pressure points, then the scent would kind of rejuvenate itself during the day! It was awesome. My favorite was totally the licorice candy scent. I was hesitant to try this one, because licorice perfume?! Weird right? WRONG. It smelled so good, it made my kids hungry. I love licorice, so I loved faintly smelling it all through the day. There are two other scents too- Love's Embrace, a floral scent with jasmine and spice, and also Seductress (hubba hubba) which had violet and bergamot. I loved these two also, but the Licorice Candy won me over. Hothouse Botanicals is an awesome company, with products I can totally stand behind. Plus- they offer free shipping on all orders $40 and more. AWESOME!
Go check em out, and tell her J.Danger sent ya!
XOXO (and smelling fine!)
