After 5 years, the Prius is finally paid off, and to celebrate I decided to buy it a new pair of shoes. Well, maybe not so much to celebrate the payoff but more because the tires were so bald that I would practice drifting on a regular basis on the way home. I was actually […]

While the Radio Flyer Red Wagon we’ve been using has served us well, it has slowly been becoming a tight fit with the boys. Not only do they almost not fit anymore, but there’s no extra room to carry the diaper bag or snacks. So, enter the new “Tractor Wagon” (this is what Andrew calls […]

As much as I love apple products, I was actually very pleased that the new iPad 2 was not enough of a change for me to want to trade in my old one. I really like the one that I have, and aside from having the cameras added I just couldn’t justify spending that kind […]

I had to run some errands in the city yesterday, so to make it a bit more fun I brought Andrew along with me. We stopped to see my good friend Sheri for a haircut first, and then took the subway to the new Apple Store (no, I didn’t get a new iPad – they […]
