to the end zone that is. If there is one thing I love, it’s football. I was laughing a few months ago when Toni posted about football rules because the point was to give women a cheat sheet to show her man that she knew football. I laughed simply because when I got married I [...]

After the game we ran into Gabe and he immediately pulled out the pic of his family and couldn’t [...]

quick diaper tip | double bag

At home, I only needed to use a few packs of Overnight Diapers. I have the tendency of not really remembering prices when they are necessity items.
