Little Treasures That Make Life Fun

Over the past few weeks I've discovered some things that make life easier or just more fun. Enjoy the findings:

*Nutella - It may be my new favorite food group. If only it was healthy enough to replace Natural Peanutbutter. Try it if you haven't!

*Mike can trim my hair. I haven't had a haircut since March. Yikes! Sunday morning, I just decided that it was time. I handed Mike the scissors and said, "Trim away". He did a great job. Better that some $20 haircuts I've had in the past.

*There is a fun resale shop less than one mile from my house that sells cheap maternity clothes. I got a brand new pair of 'mommy jeans' for about a tenth of full price. And a cute top. What a hidden treasure! Helps me live by the "never pay full price" rule.

*Starbucks Holiday Espresso Truffle beverage. Liquid Yummy Goodness! I usually don't go for the "fru-fru" coffee drinks at Starbucks. I'm a purist when it comes to coffee. I like it strong with a splash of cream. But this drink is just perfect to satisfy that spontaneous chocolate craving.

*We only have 9 1/2 weeks to go before Baby M's due date! Unbelievable. We just can't wait to meet him/her!
