What's in a name?


My dear little Toria has taken upon herself quite the unique name these days. I must, I repeat must, state her name as "baby elephant" in all requests, questions, and statements. 

"Can you please put your toys away?"
"Can you say 'baby elephant, can you please put your toys away?' "
"Baby elephant, can you put your toys away?"
"Of course"

"Let's get in the car."
"Can you say' let's get in the car baby elephant?' "
"Let's get in the car baby elephant"
"ok"

Incidentally, I have now said the words "baby elephant" about 973 times in the last three days... let's hope this is a short lived phase.

To save or not to save...


So, it's almost eleven at night and I continue my bleary eyed search for added discounts for my online ordering. Why oh why do I feel like it is worth it to spend an hour to save $4 on my gap.com order? Why do I feel so much more justified in buying Toria adorable little dresses and shoes if I can get a mere 10% more off? I just am a penny pincher to the core. I don't know where this came from... before the days of wedded bliss, I would shop to my little hearts content on fab accessories, clothes, and lest we not forget shoes, without a thought of the price. (Ok, a thought, but a passing one) Now, I have completely embraced the bargain hunting mentality. Wether it is sassy heels or spaghetti sauce I must save as much as I can. If you need a discount code, a coupon idea, or the best price on that great clutch. Look no further my friends... I am only a phone call(or e-mail) away. And the happily ever after to this story is that my little plum did get the delightful red dress, but not the snazzy red pumps. I waited too long and now her size has vanished. Maybe, if I am lucky, they will have them in the store... the quest continues...
