Green Clean
Posted by: rachelclapointe on: April 10, 2010
This is the month of spring cleaning and blogs are really pushing out a ton of GREAT information on Going Green. Personally, I’m not an “environmentalist”. I think it’s important for us to be stewards of the Earth and I think it’s important to keep ourselves healthy and safe. So what does this mean for [...]
What does it cost?

Yesterday when I was picking up my nephew to babysit, I was talking with my sister. We both agreed that we could probably thouroughly clean our houses in about an hour if we put the time and effort into really getting it done. So today, the experiment starts. I’m not going to try and tackle [...]

It’s surprising to me that Chris hasn’t figured this out and used [...]
Babies make everything more.

You may think that I forgot to finish that sentance. I truly didn’t. Babies just make everything more: more exciting, more fun, more crazy, more busy, more everything! This past Saturday (early early in the morning after a long long night) we welcomed Zeke Vitale into our ever growing family! He’s quite the charmer, we [...]
