I’ve been spring cleaning like crazy…though, it’s technically not Spring until the 20th of next month! It’s feeling good to organize things alot better, and to give things away that we don’t need anymore. This is really great to because we should be moving somewhere…no idea where, in April since our lease will be up.

I am taking a look at my huge stack of books and I know that I could really use some book shelves from IKEA. Ikea is my favorite store ever! If we lived closer I would just go there to get some exercise but then again it would be extremely hard to not spend money! There’s even an addictive little song on Youtube by Jonathan Coulton all about Ikea. Currently, I have an Ikea computer desk, an office, chair, a kitchen table, and lots of other random useful things. See, I don’t mind spending money on things I know will be put to good use!

My husband launched his website this month over at: http://thespaceturtle.com/
You should read his latest story if you visit! It’s really good, he based it off a sermon we heard at church yesterday.  I’m waiting for him to fix his blog up with the nice space turtle graphics I created for him but he’s been to busy to work on the layout for right now.

Loads of laundry need to be folded so TTFN!

I’ m going to share some love about the Luvloo Toy Wrangler! My daughter is in that stage where she thinks it’s fun to drop her toys, cups, or whatever and have me pick them up! This can get old after awhile, especially when I am out with friends at a restaurant and I can’t get  to her things under the table without making everyone move! Any Mom out there knows how much of a hassle this can be and that’s why Kristy, the founder of Luvloo came up with the Toy Wrangler!

I tested these out when I went grocery shopping! My mind was relieved when I knew my daughter wouldn’t lose or drop her toys on the dirty floor below. I shopped with peace of mind and was relieved to know my daughter would be more distracted by the toy wrangler and whatever I had attached  to it  rather than with nibbling on the shopping cart!

The Toy Wrangler has the great little straps, they Velcro strap to strap together to whatever you’d like to fasten it to whether it be a shopping cart, high chair, stroller, baby carrier, or car seat! On the other end of the wrangler are round circle links, you can use these links to attach your child’s favorite toy, a bottle, a sippy cup,  or just leave them be because my daughter just like’s nibbling on those too since she’s been teething a lot. They are easy to keep clean too, just throw them in the wash!

I wish I had these a lot sooner! I think these would make super great baby shower gifts too! I like clothes for baby shower gifts just as much as the next mommy, but I also like practical really useful gifts like these!
