testing out our new baby carrier…

01/20/2009 by Annalise · 3 Comments

We got this wonderful BabyBjorn from some good friends of ours (thank you mike and sam!) and last night we decided to try it out… :o) Andrew had a blast tracking down our poor unsuspecting kitty as he planned to torture him. He said he felt like Alf, sneaking around the house calling out “here kitty kitty!” Once we found the kitty, we strapped him in… fully expecting a fight! But, it turns out he didn’t mind too much! :o)

At first, Silly was just trying to figure out what was going on…

then he decided that whatever it was, it wasn’t too bad…

kind of supportive and comfy, actually…

and then we decided to show Silly himself in the mirror.

He was very intrigued… It was hilarious!! :o)

Welcome to our world! ;o)

my milk craving…

01/16/2009 by Annalise · 1 Comment

…has now turned into a full-blown

Breyers Vanilla/Chocolate/Strawberry

ice cream craving!

And no, it’s not just an ice cream craving in general. It is a very specific craving for this particular brand and flavor. Weird? Of course! But less weird for me than a milk craving? Absolutely!

I really don’t know what brought this on. I knew something was coming, because I kept wanting ice cream… but as my freezer-full of barely-tasted-ice-cream-containers can attest, nothing was satisfying! Then one morning I woke up and couldn’t get the idea of this one particular flavor out of my mind. So, on my next shopping trip, I picked up a carton and yep… that was it! Now I am just trying really hard not to have ice cream for EVERY meal, and at least have some breakfast or dinner once in a while! :o)

I am, in case you were wondering, thoroughly enjoying this new craving! And am SO glad to be somewhat over the worst of my milk craving… I was getting really tired of that. So boring!!

Oh, and by the way, Andrew does not get to enjoy this Breyers Vanilla/Chocolate/Strawberry obsession with me… he does, however, get to enjoy eating all the other flavors in our freezer that did not satisfy my ‘craving’! :o)
