1. I was telling my mom how Wellington kicked me so hard the other day, that my arm bounced right off my belly. Then I jokingly said we should name him 'Hercules'. This got us onto the topic of this terrible cartoon Adam & I used to watch when we were kids. Well, thanks to the miracle that is You Tube - I found an old clip from the show! Mom, this one is for you...
2. The following song is the latest guilty pleasure added to our iTunes library. It's always the first song we crank when we get in the car.
At the 1:03 mark, there is a male voice that kicks in that says 'She's got me, like nobody'. We think this vocal sounds a LOT like Aqua's 'Barbie Girl', so when that part of the song comes, we sing 'Come on Barbie, let's go party' and it fits perfectly! (Editor's note: embedding was disabled, so here is an old fashioned link...)
Lady Gaga 'Poker Face'
3. We recently discovered the virtues of Superstore. We did a spur of the moment grocery shop there last week, and a load of groceries that I estimated would have been around $200 at Safeway, costs $131 at Superstore. We are SOLD. Now we just have to figure out when the 'quiet times' are...
4. A HUGE THANK-YOU to Erin who brought us a car seat, 2 bases & matching stroller. This way, we don't have to worry about finding the perfect stroller before Wellington comes. We can see how we like this one, BEFORE going out and spending $600 on a new one. This makes us so happy :-)
5. Anyone seen Monsters Vs Aliens? We're thinking of going, but aren't sure if it's just a 'kids' movie.

"Herc, herc!" I didn't even have to watch it. I used to air it early Saturday mroning when I worked in Master Control at CTV. Right up there with Rocket Robinhood and Spiderman.
FYI: There are no "quiet" times at Superstore. The good news is once you have the baby, it is perfectly acceptable to shop for an hour in SS while your baby screams at the top of their lungs. ;-)
Don't you dare spend $600 on a stroller!! We got a Safety 1st Stroller/Car Booster Seat/Baby Carrier travel combo at Costco for $150, and it's lovely.
RESIST THE URGE TO SPLURGE!!
And, as terrible as the old Hercules cartoon is, it still has a place in my heart. Not like Rocket Robin Hood! Used to love that one, until I caught it on satellite one day and realized what a horrible, horrible show it was. Wicked theme song, though!
Give Wellington a hug from Frankbert :)
