I'm thinking about buying a support belly band. I've heard they can help prevent stretch marks (a little) and help with back support and all that good stuff.

I'm looking at the Mama Power (Spanx) and other belly support bands.

They are the opposite of sexy, I know. :)

Any thoughts?

Have you guys been watching...

How to Look Good Naked on Lifetime?

Talk about encouraging and loving your body! Good stuff. You can watch a few episodes online. I really enjoyed the last episode about a gal who was fixated on her hips and thighs--hit a little close to home for me.

I'm looking for just a nice black wedge to wear with pants...






too Mary Jane?

What do you think?

I read an interesting book this weekend - "Organic Housekeeping", lots of information, but, if you are germ-a-phobic like I am it might send you into a tailspin.

I've done a lot of cleaning this weekend. :)

I saw this dress in a catalog today and thought of Kristen. There were polka dot shoes, too.

As I was jumping over hurdles, climbing over cargo nets, and sliding down slides today I thought "Why can't working out be this much fun?". I'm sure I had to have been burning calories like crazy chasing Erin and her friend Tori around the play ground as we played our favorite game, secret agent. As we got ready to come home, I mentioned to Erin that it would be fun to include it in our morning walks. She thought so too. So, tomorrow morning at around 7:15 you'll find using playing on the play ground! Working out is so much more fun when you allow your inner child to take part!

No, really. I want to buy new spring clothes. Do you think it might hurry up some warmer weather?

I've been looking thru my closet to see what I actually "need" to add this year.

I ordered a couple of pair of shorts. I love Erika shorts from JC Penny - they fit comfortably and look nice. I got a hot pink and an aqua which I already own one pair of each but the color selection is minimum.

I will probably order a couple of tees from Eddie Bauer -their classic tee is my all time favorite.

I really need to find a shirt to wear with the blue linen pants I bought last year and never wore. I think I want a white wrap shirt, Cold Water Creek has one I like but I keep hoping I'll find something I like even more.

Other than that I don't need much, maybe a couple of sleeveless cotton shirts. They look a little dressier than a tee.

So have you guys seen anything you won't be able to live without for summer?

I want :

to have miraculously lost 50 pounds without having to diet
to have had a boob job
and to buy a new spring wardrobe

oh, well,

dream on
