I had a caper today, my mom gave me a bunch to try because she loves them. I popped about 10 in my mouth. Ew. No. Not fun at all. I’ll stick to my olives. My lunch consisted of Angus, Swiss & Bella Mushroom Burger with a fruit salad. A bunch of olives & a large sweet tea. I also munched on my brother’s fries & various kinds of pickles on the table. Thank you very much.

Went to the park this morning with Micah, it was a good time for all.

Micah must have been our little good luck charm because WOW this was a good game with hit after hit! We got there at the 1st inning & Micah didn’t start fussing until the 5th inning. What a great little guy he is! Next time I’ll have to feed him right before the game & I think he’ll be good to go for the complete game. Oh my and the frozen strawberry lemonades are delicious. And we had some AMAZING seats thanks to my mom! 5th row, very bottom section near 3rd base. And of course I forgot my super awesome zoom lens to get close up shots of the ball players, maybe I can get these tickets again… Anyways more pictures on flickr….

Saturday mornings have been about doing a clean through of the house (instead of the daily tidy up), relaxing with the family & well just relaxing. Right now we are all in the living room watch Imagination Movers, Micah really enjoys music so we all act silly dancing and singing. But the guy with long hair seems like he’s been eating some of the funny brownies. I think the rest of today will be just staying at home, sometimes you just don’t want to do more anything else. JP cleaned up the stereo cabinet so there aren’t a tons of DVDs & games sitting around the TV bothering me.

I try to read to Micah whenever he doesn’t get too cranky before bed or just randomly during the day. I pick out usually three books each time & we’ll sually get through them all but last night we only got through 2 1/2 books, Micah just got too cranky and started flopping around. He said enough was enough, he wanted to sleep. Do any of you read to your kids? When do you do it? During the day, before bed or some ofther time?

Well I’m off to relax. Have a wonderful day!

I got these bed bug encasement products to try & review. Since I’ve actually had a bed bug scare before (thankfully didn’t have them, just an allergic reaction to something) I thought these would be AWESOME when I travel. Last time I took a trip I tried them out & they were very easy to remember to use. And simple to use. I just placed my bags inside of the plastic encasement, the plastic is too slippery for the bed bugs to crawl inside of if the hotel you are staying at has bed bugs. I read that almost every hotel has SOME level of bed bugs, which just about made me want to hurl. I have no idea what level mine was at since I didn’t see any but I didn’t get any bed bugs. After reading so much about it, it scared the heck out of me. I stayed at some not so nice places before & now I’m too scared to go anywhere without these guys. They are just so simple, I never thought a piece of plastic could give me such peace. I know not everyone is as afraid as bed bugs as myself but if you are, this will give you piece of mind!

This is just my HONEST review, I was sent the item & given a small compensation to give an honest review. If I didn’t like the product I would let you know for sure, but so far so good. The only thing is they are a tad pricey but if you are an avid traveler it would be worth the price for sure!
