Web Site of the Week #9: Happy News

I discovered happynews.com about a year ago after a Google search. It’s exactly what it sounds like- a Web site devoted to positive, upbeat, and often inspirational news. Why did I look for a Web site like this? I like being informed about what’s going on in our world, so I watch the news and check CNN.com daily. I think it’s important to know about what’s happening around our world because it’s important to be informed. That said, sometimes the news makes me a little sad. When I want to know that there are positive things going on the world, I go to happynews.com. This Web site provides a variety of national and international stories about things such as medical and scientific advances, inspirational people and heroic acts. If you ever question whether there’s any good in the world today, just visit this site and you’ll be reassured that there are many people out there working to make a difference.

Web Site of the Week #8: DownEast Basics

Downeastbasics.com is my very favorite online clothing store. Why do I love it? All of their clothes are cute, modest, and affordable. And it can be find clothes like that when you live outside of Utah. They offer basic layer tees as well as shirts, skirts and dresses that are all updated frequently. I love that their clothes are modern and fun without being revealing or pricey. If you’d like to add a few fun pieces to your wardrobe without taking a bite out of your wallet, you’ll love this site.

Web Site of the Week #7: Slickdeals

Slickdeals.net is the other deal Web site (along with dealnews.com) that I check daily. It’s different from Deal News because only a few deals are posted on the main page daily (as opposed to 100+), and they are typically all jaw dropping deals. If you’re looking for a few killer deals a day, this Web site is the way to go.

Results of the Big Ultrasound!


I had an ultrasound Thursday and our baby's gender is no longer a mystery!

So what do you think?

Scroll down to find out...































We were so excited to find out that so far, everything looks good.

And we were so excited to find out that we're having a boy!

So far we know that he likes dancing on my bladder, has a cute little button nose and loves Girl Scout Thin Mints (or maybe that's just me).

We love this little guy, all 12 ounces of him.
