Happy Four Months E!

I am probably surprised EVERY time another month passes by since my daughter was born. Crazy stuff, I've said the same with JD...my reaction hasn't changed, even the second time around.
My baby E

My Stork Stack box came in today! Came faster than I expected which is always a plus :) I'll post a review on the box as soon as JD allows me to finally explore the box after he was done with it (he was excited for his sister since she could care less).

Remember Naruto Shipudden? Yeah, I don't either. -.-

Last night was the premier for Iron Man 3. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty tired of superhero movies. Maybe it's cause I'm not really into Marvel but more a DC girl (Justice League, anyone?) For now I get my fix from Netflix for it since Hubby stopped buying JLA and Nightwing comics for me D: And more bad news, I'm missing Comic Book Day! My heart weeps.

Tumblr Thursday

A friend of mine posted this very interesting link from Tumblr this morning. Being a mom of a very chatty 3 year old, he's said some things that make me go to a big WTF, "where did you hear that?" questionnaire. Click here to view.
I shared it with my husband and we thank our lucky stars that our children are a little on the normal side...

I was thinking a lot about JD and how we want to (finally) put him in daycare. I don't know about you, but the only reason I haven't even thought of it is because of how expensive child care is. Since I'm basically a SAHM, I see how much we save money and be able to use it for something that's even more necessary (penny pincher, etc).
Save your "what about his social skills?" lectures. His personality is one of being shy to begin with and he hangs out with other kids. Though between you and me, he's super friendly with other kids...it's the other kids that make me wanna lose my mind. They ignore him when he introduces himself and they push him around when he wants to join in the games. :( This makes me sad, kids can be so cruel sometimes. I know, I haven't even scratched the surface of children's cruelty.

I can finally catch up with SVU (I am addicted to it, even after Stabler left the show, it took some getting used to but it's great again!) since it's available on HULU and new episode of Naruto Shippudden. If this is another filler episode, I give up on life. D:

Official countdown: 24 days left to the new season of Arrested Development!

Wet Wednesday

As always in Miami, we have either death-inducing heat or become flood central in the spring. It's already May 1st, April storms should be over by now...get with the program!

There are a few things I am obsessing over this week:
1. JGL (need I say more?)
2. Daft Punk's newest single "Get Lucky"
3. "This is the End" -- Newest film with James Franco, Craig Robinson, Seth Rogen and Danny McBride and many more acting as themselves! Hubby and I will be attending the midnight premier for this and we're so excited!

Things that have left me wanting to rant:
1. Miami weather -.-
2. Cleaning and re-cleaning after hurricane JD passes by
3. The fact that I haven't seen an episode of Naruto Shippudden in like 3 weeks because they are fillers. Yes, I would read the chapters, but ain't nobody got time for that. Especially knowing that I'm the kind of person who can't just pick up where I left off. Just doesn't work that way. It's all or nothing.
