ONE.  A girlfriend of mine signed me up for Blissmo Box and I have started receiving monthly boxes filled with "mommy and baby" samples and products.  This month's has a new mama tush-soothing mist, all natural laundry soap, and My True Nature baby soap.  I still need to try a couple products - but I love the idea of trying new things! They have a TON of different themed boxes you can sign up for - it's not just for new moms!

TWO. I love the blogging community - there are so many amazing women, including Caley (Ellie Love) who I adore.  She sent this sweet package to me all the way from South Africa.  It was so exciting to see it on the door step with the SA stamps all over the front.  She is really thoughtful and now I am going to have some fun trying to figure out what to send to her from Cali!  Any ideas?  Thank you, Caley - your brightened by day - so sweet of you to send these thoughtful gifts to us!

THREE.  With the cooler weather yesterday, I busted out my mom's famous taco soup recipe and made it for dinner for Tim and I.  It was delicious (as usual) and perfect to chow down on while we watched Thursday night football. :)

FOUR.  I love this quote and it's something I try to remind myself of everyday!

FIVE.  Abbey, mama of 3 adorable triplet girls, is also a creative headband maker and Etsy shop owner.  I LOVE her stuff.  She sent over a few headbands for Andie to try out and I love them.  They don't leave marks on her head - and she does custom sports team bows - she made her a gold 49er one that is so cute.  She has a ton of stuff at her Etsy shop (The Pleated Polka Dot) and does a lot of specials on her facebook page!  We are doing a giveaway starting today and ending next Thursday - it's easy to enter, all you have to do is "like" her facebook page.  There are a few extra things you can do to better your chances of winning.  Good luck!
