What are you currently obsessed with?
I have this odd fixation on requesting free samples of pretty much any product I can get my hands on. I have no idea when or how this began but I can't stop. I stalk blogs and order them constantly.
The hubs and I are also currently obsessed with Breaking Bad. I still can't believe it's the dad from Malcom in the Middle, ha!
Re: Current Obsessions
i'm obsessed with bagels and light veggie cream cheese haha.
tv wise we just finished season four of BB. I heart Jessie Pinkman
My little nuggets
Buying cloth diapers. J will be starting daycare in February and they have agreed to use cloth diapers. So I've been buying the easier kind and the prints and colors are so cute!
I'm really itching to go on a baking and cooking spree but I just don't have the time.

Oh, and I'm always stalking new running gear. I get so excited when the new models of shoes come out. Yeah, go ahead and say it..."she is such a dork!"
Oh and I'm obsessed with yard sales too.
I usually hit up thrift stores to buy clothes for Jack but I have been scoring some amazing deals on clothes at yard sales recently.
Jack is also in the beginnings of the walking phase and I wanted to get him something to push around. Mr.D and I were driving last weekend and I pointed and yelled and made him stop at a yard sale because I saw a little push car. Scored it for $2!

Reading! I did it, I finally cancelled cable! Since breaking my addiction to that glowing box of crack, I've been reading so much more and loving it.
I did, however, get a roku box so I didn't fully break my ties to TV entertainment.

The hardest part was pulling the plug. Now that it's gone, I really don't miss it. I can get most of my shows on Hulu and the others I can watch on my computer. I want to get rabbit ears for the local channels and then I'll have access to about 90% of the TV I actually watched when I had cable.

Trader Joe's Cookie Butter
My baby's chipmunk cheeks

Is there a magical age where you suddenly start to like gold jewelry? I hated it until this year and now it seems like everything I get is gold.
OMG. Yes. Have you tried the chocolate bars with the cookie butter filling? TO DIE FOR!

Riding boots...I've came to the conclusion that every fall outfit I wear looks best when worn with riding boots. I have several pairs, but I wear the same pair like 4x a week. I wonder if people look at me funny???
Deftones White Pony. Haven't listened to it in a while, but have had it on repeat all week. I always forget how great it is. My co-workers, however, are not as impressed.
All things pumpkin. I can't get enough. In particular, pumpkin ice cream. Well, I haven't had pumpkin ice cream yet, but I'm hoping a trip to TJs will rememdy this issue. Oh, and a Pumpkin latte from Starbucks. I still hav yet to have the one full fat Pumpkin latte with whip that I allow myself each fall. It's pretty damn glorious.
ditto. The necklace I never take off is gold. All of a sudden I love it.

Oh dear god. No. I'll be hunting for those next week. Thank you/I hate you.
leopard print stuff (scarves, shoes)
smoking slippers (or that general shoe shape)
organization and decluttering --- I've been furiously cleaning out drawers, closets, etc. in our house
researching info about our baby's heart condition...I'm driving myself nuts reading blogs and websites about it. Which I'm not sure is good or bad.
