    What's up with those sneakers that are supposed to get you into shape?

    I have Avia's branded shape ups. They are comfy. I wear them at work--- I work ten hour shifts on my feet so thought why not get a workout? No major transformations have been noticed...but they are comfy. :)

    Aw Kendra! I would have loved to have read your cloth diaper comments. :( Maybe when you have more time you can re-write it? So far I don't mind it at all. This is the EZ stage though...as my girls only poop like once a week. You shake off lose poop into toliet and they get laundered. It...

    Christine~ are you still swaddling John? How do you find a blanket so big? I was going to try to swaddle one of the girls yesterday and my swaddlers were all way too small! The girls can't be much bigger than 12 lbs or so! Not sure if they'd like it anymore anyhow...but just curious. i hope...

    Jen~ just looked at your wall. Everything looks good. Thanks for posting the poem, I don't remember reading it before. This is one I have on my fridge: If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn. If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight. If a child lives with ridicule...

    I admire everyone's ability to cook here. I cook to live, but I don't really enjoy doing it. I do enjoy baking with my kids b/c it puts a smile on their faces. I enjoy baking bread b/c it turns out good & I know it's alot healthier than store bought.....but I wouldn't be sad at all if someone...

    Susan, I love things organized too. I will order the bowflex dumbbells, but was going to wait until Fall when I start CharLean Xtreme. I might order them sooner though (especially if you do). If the job is meant to be, it'll all work itself out. I've been "waiting" for a job to open up in...

    You CAN take Ambien while nursing, I was just afraid that I might not act appropriate if my babies needed me in middle night. I was afraid that I might roll over and crush them or not hear them cry. All's well though. ;) Running friend is here! I'll let you know how it goes! I got my mojo back!

    Susan, amazon has lowest price with free shipping. Okay, I'm looking at a 10 mile race with a junior-high classmate I haven't seen in years. It'll be 20 minutes from my folks house during my visit. I'll need the "mental release" during that visit anywho...
