Cleanig is a Drag

Cleaning is such a drag.  You think that the stuff looks nice, but wait until you have to clean all those edges, borders and crevices.

I've been on my hands and knees in our kitchen floor scrubbing grout lines.  Something that needed to be done before we moved in or at least not this late in the moving process.  I've only been able to do small sections at a time since I can only manage to work on it while Jackson is napping.  The black grout now looks white again!  Using my little grout brush and some Zep bathroom cleaner, it's looking like new again!  Who knows when I'll need to do this again!  Hopefully it will last 6 months or more :)

Blinds are another pain in the butt!  Slowing working on those too 

Hair Falling Out

I knew that your hair falls out after pregnancy.  I wasn't sure when that was going to happen until several weeks ago.  It was finally happening.  My hair is falling out like crazy!  I guess it's making up for all those months when I lost nothing.  When my hair was getting thick from pregnancy.  It's all over now folks.  I guess around the 3 month mark is when it starts to happen.  Tons come out during shower, during combing and during blow drying.  It looks like I could make a sweater out of it and you'd think I'd be bald by now!!

Ellen Trance

Jackson's eyes are peeled to the screen.  Ellen is on!  He's laying on the floor facing the TV listening to a little boy ramble about Presidents.  Maybe he is learning about Presidents!  Should I send a picture of him watching Ellen to Ellen?  Maybe she'll phone me! :)

Recent Movie Rental Reviews

We rented 4 movies over the weekend.  Who knew you could watch so many movies and mess with a newborn at the same time!  We'd start watching them during feeding, that way he was quiet and calm after the feeding or while he was napping.  One time I sacrificed sleep to stay up with hubby and watch a movie and enjoy our time together.  Even though that night I think Jackson woke up every hour, or at least I saw every hour go by and think I got 3-4 hours of sleep that Friday night.  Oh well, it was worth it! :)

Here goes my reviews of the rentals:

Just Go With It: Good fun cast.  It was decent, typical Adam Sandler (the new-older Sandler that is) As always I'm an Aniston fan.  Was a one watch kinda movie though.

Lincoln Lawyer:  Loved this movie.  Kept me thinking and interested.  Love me some Matthew!

The Company Men:  I never heard of it, but Jason rented it since he read what it was about.  Good moral of the story. Great cast!  Slow moving, I got disinterested towards the end.

Hall Pass: Funny Funny Funny!  Been wanting to see this one since it hit theaters.  Love the golf scene the best!  I always enjoy an Owen Wilson flick. 

I'm sure there are many more movies I'd like to rent.  Wouldn't you know the Redbox upped their prices too!  Of course, they get popular and up the price :(

Sesame Street

Is it bad that I let my son watch TV?  It's not like he's watching violent shows anyway.  He loves to watch Sesame Street.  In fact he's watching it while I type this.  But once it's over he's done, he doesn't like Curious George that follows. 

I grew up on Sesame Street and I still love it, even though it's not the same as before.  It's still educational and catchy.  I hope it's still around when Jackson is a little older and they do the Sesame Street tour so that I can take him.  Man, I guess I am a Mom...I'm already looking forward to taking him to kid stuff!  :) 

He also loves to watch Golf and Baseball with his daddy.  I suppose it has a little to do with the neon green grass that is showed in high def, but he still loves to sit on your lap and watch it!
