Top Five Friday!

Five things I am currently loving....
5. Playtex Ventaire bottles.
For a period of time, Shelby refused to take a bottle. After lots of practice {I am with Shelby 99.9% of the time, which means 99.9% of the time she can just nurse and doesn't need to be able to take a bottle...we wanted to make sure she was able to take a bottle, so I could be away from her for a short time if I needed to..or ahem, wanted to be away for a bit ;) } , we finally got her taking a bottle again..but it definitely wasn't as easy/enjoyable for Shelby as nursing was. Enter the Playtex Ventaire bottle. She can take 8 ounces in 5 minutes with this bottle due to the Ventaire system. Enough said.

4. Till Debt Do Us Part.


I am not a huge TV watcher {the only shows I currently watch are American Idol & Biggest Loser...along with the news in the morning and the occasional One Tree Hill or 90210 re-run on SoapNet}, but my hubby looooves him some History Channel, Discovery Channel, Fox News, and of course financial shows on CNBC. One show that we DVR and I actually really enjoy watching with him is Till Debt Do Us Part. It's about couples who are in significant debt, and a financial guru puts them through a series of "challenges" to get them back on track. It's kind of an educational reality show, if you will. And while we are fortunate enough to not have any debt {with the exception of our mortgage in VA}, this show has a lot of valuable lessons for everyone and it's a good reminder to us for why we want to stay debt-free.

3. SoapNet. As sad as it is to admit, I could watch re-runs of One Tree Hill and 90210 all day long and be perfectly content. While I do love this channel, I do not watch any of the soaps.

2. Wubbanub.
Shelby really likes Nuk pacifiers. They work great for her b/c she can manipulate the handle of the pacifier, and she can keep the pacifier in her mouth easier b/c it conforms to her face. But the Nukoften falls out of her mouth during naps or at night and she can't find it. We always put her to sleep with the Nuk in her mouth, and then we place the Wubbanub on her chest or next to her in her crib. The Wubbanub is easy for her to find and get her in mouth when she's sleepy. And it's pretty much the cutest thing ever to see her snuggled up with her Wubbie in her crib.

1. Ghirardelli Double Chocolate Brownies.

If I am anything, I am an ice cream and brownie connoisseur. These brownies are to.die.for. And when paired with Edy's Double Vanilla ice cream (yes..Double Vanilla...regular Vanilla or French Vanilla simply does not compare), you will be in heaven. Trust me.

Do you have any Friday favorites?!
Happy Weekend to you! :)
