PPP-I've joined PayPerPost!

I've become one of the many bloggers who are a part of the PayPerPost blogging network. I heard about PPP from a message board that I visit frequently. I started reading some of the member's blogs and I decided that I wanted to find out more about PPP. When I found out that I could make money just by blogging,I was skeptical. After hearing some of their stories,I realized what a great opportunity this is! I'm a stay at home mom and living on one income is tight. Now I have the chance to make some money on the side and still be home with my kids. I've made money after just one post! What more could anyone ask for?

I've met a lot of interesting people and I've read some very funny blogs. I've learned a lot about my friends and they will often refer me to others and vice versa. That helps a lot when you are trying to get more visitors on your blog.

I have also enjoyed learning about the different companies that use PPP. I hope that my ads will be able to help those people who read them. I'm thankful to those who helped me sign up and I enjoy being a part of the PayPerPost team! blog reviews

Top 3 laughing baby´s

Just try not to laugh along with them..

PPP - Lap Band by Journey Lite

Have you tried losing weight, but diet and exercise alone aren't enough? Then the lap band may be the solution to your problem. This procedure reduces the size of your stomach and resticts the amount of food you can eat at any time. During the procedure the surgeon uses laparoscopic techniques which means no large incisions!
The surgeon will use special long-shafted instruments through the small incisions. Then they wrap the lap band around the upper part of the stomach. It creates a smaller pouch which holds less food. It also slows your digestion so you feel full faster and longer.

They have facilities in Los Angeles,Houston and Tampa. Give them a call and you will be on your way to a healthier you!

I'm the mother of a kindergartener! Josh had his first day of school today and he LOVED it! He was so excited to ride the bus and it makes it nice for me not to have to take him and pick him up. (yes I know...I am lazy) He had no separation anxiety at all..Brianna was a different story. She hugged Josh twice and cried a little bit. Overall there were very few tears shed even though I thought I was going to cry a lot. I'm glad he had so much fun and I got some cute pictures.

The big 3-0

Today is my 30th birthday. I was pretty disappointed that my hubby had to be out of town. All in all though,I had a nice day. I went to lunch with a SIL and then my other SIL (A.K.A. BFF) came over and made dinner and dessert since her hubby is out of town too. That helped to make my day better. I also got flowers and chocolates from my BIL (A.K.A hubby's boss) apologizing for taking my hubby away. Since he sent us to Hawaii and sent me chocolate,I guess I should forgive him. Although I may have to eat the whole box before I feel the stirrings of forgiveness in my heart.

So just for fun I decided to look up some celebs who turned 30 this year...

Orlando Bloom-my crush on him comes and goes,but I really like his smile. (yes I'm aware he's not smiling here,just go with it)


Shakira-do you know how difficlut it is to find a pic of her where she is not half dressed? Anyway I digress..I will just say my hips don't lie either,they are brutally honest.


Tom Welling-he's thinking about me here...it breaks his heart that I'm taken.


Some others are Sarah Michelle Gellar,James Van der Beek,Jon Heder,Brittany Murphy,Milo Ventimiglia,Liv Tyler and John Mayer.

Oh and apparently if you were born in 1977 and are a female you have to wear skimpy clothes. I was not aware of that fact.

Ladies Choice Music Video

So I downloaded some songs from the movie "Hairspray" today and they are very catchy! I've bene singing them all day and my kids kept requesting "You Can't Stop the Beat" on my iPod. That song and "Ladies Choice" are my faves. I watched some clips and I think it is a movie I would really enjoy. I like dancing and most musicals. My SIL and I are planning on seeing the movie within the next few weeks. Has anyone else seen it and did you like it?

Get the wiggles out!!

Today was a crazy day at church! There were only 2 of the 5 primary leaders there and all of the kids were hyped up. I got to class late and I had to stop my lesson five times to shush the kids. Then we went to sharing time and they were pretty good. Then on to singing time and all of the kids were loud. It was pandemonium! No matter what the leaders did,the kids just kept talking and talking. (Josh was one of them..his teacher had to separate him and the other 2 boys in his class). I then realized that my class has sharing time next week. Hopefully the kids will be a little more sedate.

Now on to funnier things. I have a little boy is my class who is such a funny kid! I love to hear him say prayers because he uses a lot of big words,probably because his dad is in the bishopric. So one day while he was saying the prayer he said,"and please bless us that our primary will not be paralyzed by Satan" LOL! I was trying so hard not to laugh because he was very serious,but I thought that was so dang cute! :D

I have been so ornery this week and it's rubbing off on my kids. Yesterday I went to my nephew's wedding and my kids were all terrors. It was so fun! (sarcasm dripping off my lips) Not to mention I still haven't caught up on sleep and my body is still messed up. I can't fall asleep until midnight or later and then I'm up around 7:30. Yesterday was really bad,I lost it with my kids and turned into monster mommy. I'm really trying to do better today.

Josh is in a good mood though because he is excited for Back to School night. He can't wait to meet his teacher and see his classroom. I think it will be easier for him to go if he is familiar with the school. Only time will tell I guess.

I'm back,did you miss me?

Our trip was wonderful! We had such a great time! Hawaii is so beautiful,even more so than I imagined. It was nice to relax and be alone with my hubby and just focus on each other. We went to Pearl Harbor and the Polynesian Cultural center. We tried to go to the Hawaii temple but we just missed the last bus. :-( We went to the beach a few times,once at night and it was so beautiful. Sometimes we had to pinch ourselves to prove that we weren't dreaming,we really were in Hawaii. I was sad to see our trip end,but it was great to see our kids again. We would like to go there again in a few years so we better start saving our pennies. A word of advice... if you visit Hawaii,plan on paying a lot for food. We paid $22 for three hot dogs,nachos and sodas at a snack bar. Groceries are high as well,it costs around $7-8 dollars for a gallon of milk. I highly recommend visiting Hawaii though because we had an awesome time!

I hope you are happy Dawn because I'm posting tons o'pics! :-D

Adam and I in our leis we received at the airport.
