Green-Inhabitots

Around December I posted about a great site Inhabitat, they have all kinds of ideas a resources on how to live green. I have been searching for just the right little solar car for Grant's 5th birthday coming up (September 1st) and knew that Inhabitat would have just what I was looking for. To my happy surprise they have branched out with a site just for the tots that has got my heart all a blaze! Inhabitots is awesome, and their logo is so adorable, go check them out.


Oh! They did have the answer to my solar car question, I knew it. Meet the world's smallest solar racing car.

Baby Boy-DANG IT!!!



***Update***

Are you kidding me?
Why? I mean I kinda like it but there is no way we could get away with Zuma!
Gwen had her baby boy this morning and they released his name!
Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale...
Um....Jason would NEVER go for Zuma Anthony. 
"Hi,  meet our three sons Grant, Maxten and Zuma."
Oh great in my head it is growing on me......I think I just need to say it out loud some more.

Looks like we are headed for a Luke :)


Baby Boy-Name game...



Here he is, @ 28 weeks. It is a side by side shot so don't get confused there is just one in here!
Name game, name game who can you be.  This is really like my favorite part of having a new baby, the name game. I like to make lists and say the different names in my head over and over. Then I tell people all the choices and they all sound BAD!  Or weird.  Or contrived.  

So then I just figured I would name my baby boy whatever Angelina named her baby boy. Well she picked Knox so that is not gonna happen, I can't justify Knox by saying Jason's peepaw's middle name was Knox.  So I considered Jasper, Sailor, Digby, Maverick, Thatcher...
Jason just looks at me crazy of just doesn't respond to my text messages.

So #1 on our (Jason's) list is Luke Anthony.  It fits with our other 2 and is is a nice strong name, even though it so easily rhymes with puke and duke.  That is it, it is our #1 until Gwen gives birth today and cross your fingers that it is a boy, we will name him whatever she names hers. Sound good?
I will let you know .

Bubble and Bee- Pit Putty and more....

I know, I know what people think, safe all natural B.O. stoppers do not work. believe me I have tried some Tom's and JASON to name a few but by midday I had always had a sweaty funk going on. A little funk doesn't bug me but I think other people might not like it so much. I came across Bubble and Bee organics @ Safe Mama ( click it to read her review) and had to give it a shot.


I ordered some Pit Putty, a bar of the homemade organic Orange Peel soap and a organic Coconut & Lime lotion stick. I swear it came SUPER fast, like in 2 days. They all smelled divine, Max even helped himself to a nice big ole' bite of the soap ( still wrapped up, phew.) I was waiting to write review so I can really give the deodorant a good test over the weekend.


When I first opened it the deodorant was a bit soft, cause it was like 80ยบ that day and Stephanie warned that the deodorant is all natural and not a synthetic aluminum concoction and will change consistency with the temperatures. I kinda mushed it back flat in its tube and popped it in the fridge. There it stays for the summer cause it kinda will get soggy if left out but it is nice cause it is hard and cold and feels great. I only needed one small application to the pits and I smelled fresh ALL day! I am telling you it really works!



I even gave it the working mom of two with a third on the way lazy no shower weekend test. Okay it was only one day of no shower (or bath) AND I didn't even re-apply the Pit Putty. I didn't stink like a bad B.O. stink more like teetering on the edge of musky (only known by the famous Mary Katherine Gallagher swipe of the pits and deep inhale) maybe a little more subtle than that cause my hubby would be sicked out. I could have problably used a re-ap but I think that it passed the test, it's excellent! I love it, it makes me happy.

P.S. The soap is unbelievable and the lotion stick is fabulous. The lotion stick is more like a salve for dry spots you can't really use it on your whole body. For hands feet elbows and problem spots it is yummy. I wish I could just soak in it.
