Thursday Thoughts

I'm linking up with Jennifer over at ROASM for Thursday Thoughts.

--First, I've been gone forever it seems.. been getting ready to move. Only to find out the Army has changed our date. Of course. That's what you get when you go & try to make plans in the Army. It is so frustrating & there is absolutely nothing we can do about it! They say it will only be a few more weeks. Yeah, they say. We will see.

--I already had all my mail forwarded to my grandmother's (where we are going to be staying for a few days until we find a house) & I know:

~Bluum, Bulu, Stork Stack, Ipsy, 2 of my Say Yes To Carrots orders, my Diapers.com order, like 2 or 3 of my Amazon orders & others that I can't think of right now, have arrived at her house.

I am dying knowing all of that is there & I can't rip into it. I'm going to be like a kid on Christmas when we finally get there. I wonder if she thinks I'm a shopaholic with all those packages?! To be fair, all.. well ok most of those orders were at a discounted price. That has to count for something, right?

--So since we will be here a little longer, I went ahead & put my daughter back in preschool. Any little bit helps. It helps both of us. She is beyond excited, she loves going to school. I know I need to enjoy it while I can because I am sure that will change someday. It also gave me an excuse to buy her a Skip Hop Lunchie & a Lunchbot!

--If my 6 month old doesn't start sleeping for more than an hour at a time I don't know how I am going to make it! The doctor told me that once they hit 6 months they can slef soothe and that I don't need to feed him during the night anymore. Well, he wakes up hungry.. so I am going to feed him. She also said to just let him cry it out, that it would be a miserable couple of weeks. That would be all fine and dandy if he slept in his own room. Which he doesn't. He sleeps right next to me in his bassinet. Speaking of his bassinet, he is growing out of it, so I am going to have to figure out some other sleeping arrangements soon.

--I bought a bunch (80 pouches) of NurturMe on a FSOT facebook group for only $30! I don't know what I was expecting but I thought the pouches would have more in them. It takes at least 3 to feed my fat baby in one sitting ;) Still, at only $30, I'm not complaining. I don't know if I would ever go and buy at full price though.

Well, that's all for now.

--Finally got my Pacifica order today that was shipped out on July 1st! I guess it got lost & they 2-day'd me another one, which was very nice! After all that time I'm wishing I would've gotten a different scent...figures. With any luck I'll eventually get the original one and have 2. I can give it to my mom or something :)

--Still waiting on my Bulu Box (which was shipped July 10th) & Bluum Box (which was shipped the 16th). It's my first time for both of these. Does it usually take forever? Or is it the good 'ole Alaska curse? (80% of items take 10x longer & cost 10x more to ship to Alaska & Hawaii) Which brings me to my next thought-

--I am so ready to leave here! I can honestly say I hate it! The end of August needs to hurry!

--Does anyone have a HTC Windows Phone? Mine keeps saying SIM card error & it's so annoying because you have to restart your phone. I looked online & it seems to be a common issue. Should've went with the iPhone5. My husband loves rubbing it in because he told me I should've gotten it before I even decided I was getting the Windows Phone.

--When I was shopping at Safeway today, I came across Cookie Chips! I had seen them in some food box review a few times, I can't remember which one, but of course I had to try them.. and Oh. My. God. Yumm!(I am on a diet but these are 1g of fat a cookie so if I just have like a couple a day...)

--Speaking of my diet, I am doing pretty good. About 15lbs to go before I weigh what I did before both of my kids! Eating good sucks but I'm loving the results. I am also taking these Ab Cuts Sleek & Lean pills. They seem to be helping a lot! Has anyone ever taken them or heard anything about them?

(I take both the Thermo Rise & Dreamweaver PM)

--I'm so upset that Bri got sent home from MasterChef. She was my favorite! SO WHAT if she was a vegetarian. Krissi & Natasha need to go. I can't stand their attitudes. I don't know who I'm rooting for now that Bri is gone. Natasha will probably win the whole thing though.

--Well I think that's it for today. Mostly negative, I know.. :)

Thursday Thoughts

Linking up with Jennifer over at Ramblings of a Suburban Mom (for the very first time) today for Thursday Thoughts!

--I'm brand new at this blogging thing. So bare with me. Any tips or advice is much appreciated!

--I don't know why my kids insist on waking before 6:00am with no intention of going back to bed anytime soon. It seems like whether they go to bed at 8:00pm or 1:00am, they will still be bright eyed & bushy tailed by 6:00am.

--Still trying to get everything in order to move. Yay move! Goodbye Alaska. Goodbye snow, goodbye -40, goodbye 24/7 daylight, goodbye Army Life. We are going to be doing it the civilian way. Very bittersweet...

--Debating on buying the Flye Baby Airplane Seat. I was reading the reviews & a few people brought up a good point.. What if it's not allowed on the plane? Does it meet the standards? I would hate to buy it & not be able to use it. Does anyone know? Has anyone used a Flye Baby Seat before?

--I'm expecting my Bulu Box, Citrus Lane & Bluum sometime very soon. My first Bluum & my first Bulu! I want to try so many others. Fancy, Wanted, PopSugar... so many boxes so little money! I won't be getting a Birchbox this month, I cancelled it. I might have just been unlucky a few times but I was underwhelmed.**

--Upset about my Pacifica order. I got a email that it shipped on July 1st. That's 17 days ago. I still haven't received it. I emailed them and they said there was a mix up in their deliveries & instead of being shipped by plane, everything was shipped by truck. Their customer service is off the charts. I also got a $10 coupon on my next order for my troubles! Can't beat that!

--I'm just now getting around to this week's episode of PLL. Does anyone else feel that this season isn't as good as the past seasons? I still enjoy watching it, don't get me wrong, but I'm not dying to watch it like I did in the past.

That's all for now :) --Jordana
