Where Did You Get That Bracelet From?

I got it from my mama, I got it from my mama.
I am just kidding. Come on, you know that song right?
Ok anyways, so I love accessories. Love love love them.
I haven't tuned in religiously to The Bachelorette this season, but I have watched a few episodes. This girl is always dressed so cute and always has the best earrings, bracelets or whatever on. I love her accessories. Well, after doing some "RESEARCH" I found where she gets it from.
The line is called Stella & Dot Jewelry. It's chunky and amazing!! It's not super cheap, but it's not super expensive either. Go here and you can purchase it and read all about it. No I am not getting anything for this post and no I wasn't asked to promote it. I just stumbled across her blog and fell in love!! I was so excited to figure out where Jillian gets her cute stuff. Now, if I could just stumble across where she got that cute white shirt and big brown belt.

Eeeewww

I am not one to get all deep and love dovey. It's just not my style. But Father's Day is coming up and I have to acknowledge what an amazing dad the Hubster is. He loves Little Boy more than anything. I love that. I thought I would share some cute pictures of my boys.
Happy Father's Day Babe, you're the best!

Oh and p.s. Little Boy's favorite word is Dada.

Jade Amberthighs

That's my stripper name. Pretty good right?
Well I might need it, I've stumbled across a new addiction.
Pole Fitness!

Yes, that is me. I am that good!
My cousin has been going to these stripper classes (that's what I call them) and while I was visiting her she asked me to take one with her. OH.MY.GOSH.SIGN.ME.UP. It was so much fun, and a SERIOUS work out. No wonder strippers (most) have awesome bodies. 10 minutes into the workout, I was feeling the burn. Today, I can't even move, so I know it was a good workout. Even my abs are hurting. Plus the hubster thinks it's awesome that I want to learn to pole dance. Before I even took my first class, he was joking about how we could put a pole in the garage.
(he's Mexican, everything happens in the garage)
So now that I am back to Vegas, I have found a studio here that I am looking to join.
And with these bad boys, I am sure to fit right in!

Just remember, at Pole Fitness class, we take off inches, not our clothes.

Call Betty Ford, I'm Addicted

To California!!
I love this place.

I love breakfast with the Stars at Disneyland!

I love taking Little Boy to the beach!

I love seeing my boys, loving the pier.

I loved our small Ocean View! haha

I really loved the Beverly Hills 90210 beach house! I can't believe I was standing right in front of it. Right in front of the beach where David Silver wrote "I Love Don" in the sand. Ahhh, heaven. You know what would have made this moment even better????

If I had some pinkberry while I was standing in front of the 90210 Beach House.
Now that would be heaven.
Does anyone know how I can get this stuff pumped into my veins? I have gone 3 times in the past 24 hours to get my fix. This sweet, tangy, frozen goodness just makes my mouth water.
Unfortunately, I am not sure how long I will be able to feed my addiction. I will be going back home to Vegas in 5 days and sadly, there are no locations there.
(but don't worry, I plan on nagging them until they come to Vegas)
Until then, I will just have to soak up the swirly goodness while I am in California.

Where Have You Been All My Life

HOLY CRAP!!!
This stuff is heaven. I'm talking H.E.A.V.E.N.
I walked in and had no clue how this place worked. I just knew that L.A. people go crazy for this stuff, plus my girls from "The Hills" are always eating there. So, I knew I had to try it. I told my good friend Danielle that I wanted to try it and she told me her favorite is the original with Captain Crunch and fresh strawberries as her toppings. Gross right? WRONG!! HEAVEN!!
I asked to taste what the yogurt taste like and I about fell over it was so good. I asked them if they could give me a 5 gallon bucket full of this stuff, but they weren't sure how to price that out, so I settled for the medium size. Of course, I had captain crunch and fresh strawberries as my toppings, so glad I did. Every bite was amazing.
I was really really devastated when it was all gone. So devastated, that I almost walked Little Boy and I back over there, in the rain, to get another.
We are leaving Hermosa Beach in a day and Hubster and Little Boy are going home, I am going to Temecula to visit my BFF Leah. I googled the Pinkberry there, it's so close to her store. I don't think she knows it yet, but we will be making a few trips there. =)
p.s. If anyone from Pinkberry is reading this (and that is a BIG if) please call me, I think you are amazing.

Nobody Puts Baby In The Corner

I have been LAZY when it comes to blogging. My life has just been busy. I love it. The Hubster normally travels a lot but for the past two weeks he has been around, so I have been with him. My poor computer was so lonely.

Anyways. I though I would address a few things that are annoying me.



1. The fact Notre Dame had President Obama come speak. I am not against wanting the President to come speak at your graduation. I just don't get why they would have him come give a speech, then after, criticize him. Um, HELLO!! Everyone knows his opinions are the exact opposite of the Catholic Church. Why would you want him there if it was just going to cause an outrage? I am not saying I am for or against Obama, I just felt bad that they invited him to come, then just bashed him afterwards.




2. Miss California. Uggh. Aren't her 15 minutes of fame over yet? Her gay marriage comment, doesn't bother me. It's the fact that we are still paying attention to her and her nude pictures. Lets move on to real issues. Seriously, lets do it.



3. Here in Las Vegas, a man made a turn in front of an officer and killed him. The officer was doing 109mph in a 35mph zone with no lights or sirens. The guy was automatically to blame for not yielding to an emergency vehicle. Now, if the officer had his lights and sirens on, MAYBE, just maybe, the guy would have known the cop was speeding and that he needed to wait to make his turn. He was also charged with a DUI for having a blood alcohol limit of .03. The legal limit here is .08, so he was WELL UNDER the limit. One beer can put you at .03. Of course, the police department is covering their butts by saying he failed the field sobriety test. Who wouldn't fail it after that impact?!?! The guy was involved in a crash with a car going 109mph, then he gets out of his car, throws dirt on it to prevent fire, then tries to pull the officer out of his car. Pretty sure he wasn't drunk. Why do we have a legal limit if we are just going to punish people for being UNDER it? It is very very sad that this officer's life was taken, but what is even sadder, is that we are blaming this innocent guy just because it was a police officer. It was an accident, leave the innocent guy alone.


Let's see, what else is irritating me.........


Teething toddlers. This poor boy is miserable. His bottom molars are finally through, now it's time for the top ones to come in and make his life hell. He is fussy and whiny and crabby ALL.THE.TIME. Help, please.

Going Green

So there is a new love in my life.
Green cleaning supplies!!
Eco Store provides plant based household cleaning products, baby products and pet products. They are all toxin free and environmentally friendly.
I had the opportunity to try the Toilet Cleaner and the Citrus Spray Cleaner. I must say, that I love them both!! The smell the products give off is just a clean smell. No more choking on the strong chemical smell. They clean just as well, if not better, as the leading products on the shelves at all the stores. So far, Eco Store products are available online and at Meijer stores in the Midwest. If you would like to try these products for yourself, just leave a comment and I will randomly pick some one to win a $25 gift card to use at the Eco Store.
Good luck!!

Little Boy Update

I have no good stories, so I thought I would post some updated pictures of Little Boy.

Hubster got Little Boy a seat to go on the back of MY bike. I love the idea, but Little Boy is 30lbs. That's a lot of weight to carry. You can see by the look on his face, he is just as excited as I was.


Look at this face!!!!!
Once we got going though, he loved it. He was "oooing and aaahhing" the whole way.

We have also been been spending time at the pool. This is obviously our fancy shmancy blowup pool in our backyard. This pool comes in handy when I don't feel like packing us up and driving to the real pool.
This is the pose he does when I say, "Say cheese!!"


Ok, so as I am writing this blog and looking at the pictures, I am noticing that Little Boy has an attitude problem. Look at him. Sassy!!!
This is his new table that The Hubster bought for him.
He loves to read his books at his table.

He also loves to get up there and blow raspberries. Every once in awhile he will get up there and table dance, when I get that on film, you will be the first to know.

Belly, Where Are You?

I am down another 3 lbs!! Exciting right? I am loving it. Minus the fact that all my clothes that I love, are now becoming a little too big for me.

I'm Official Like A Referee With A Whistle

It's Weight Watchers Wednesday people and I am officially losing weight.

Let me just tell you, you know you were big when the Hubster is now bragging about how much weight you lost! Haha, he kills me. He loves to tell everyone how skinny I am now and how much weight I lost. I am so happy he brags, but at the same time I am thinking, "man, I must have been a HUUGGEE biatch!" (sorry for the profanity, that saying just fit.) =)

I know I didn't report on my skinniness last week, it was a crazy week. Not for weight loss, just for me. Very busy. But I am glad to say that I am down 5lbs since the last WW Wednesday. I know that may not seem like a lot, but for me, it is. I am in that "I only have 10 lbs to go" phase. So every LB that I say see ya to, makes me happy.

Now, if I could just get my butt to the gym. I have been doing the Wii Fit, but I need more.

Too bad I am just lazy!
