Whoa, who knew: Barbie’s Pregnant Friend Yanked. And she’s been married and has one kid already, but still WalMart said it gave kids the “wrong idea.” That’s so weird, considering she wears a wedding ring and everything (I checked mine, I never noticed it before, but she does have a little ring painted on). You may already know that I find WalMart to be really disgusting in almost every way so this is just icing on the cake. It’s called open sex education people and it’s good. This just leaves me so puzzled. I think people should be more upset that the husband is out flying a kite with the little kid while she gives birth. hmm. Well I’ll leave you with a sunny thought:

I don’t know how this happened. I have five barbies, and not from my childhood! But seriously I can’t help it. I mean toys are so cheap (compared to adult toys like the PSP). Oh and then I just get stuck on one and I want it so bad. And I just start thinking, hey I’m adult, I can buy what I want and I get one! Ah well, they make me happy. So from left to right. Ken, just got him today. He’s go blond movable hair (my Ken didn’t have that when I was Little), that feels like it has been hair sprayed to death. Bj says his shirt is lame and wanted me to get a Blaine, but I like this guy’s shorts. Then I have my Elle from Legally Blond 2. Bj got this one for me after I saw it online with the little dog, I was freaking out. Then there is the pregnant Midge. I was almost crying at Toys R’ Us when I first saw this doll. The very pregnant Midge is wearing platforms and as soon as her baby and stomach are removed (they are held on by magnet) she is like way too skinny. But the best part? On the back of the box it talked about how Barbie was her baby doctor, and that Ken was at the park with their three year old while she was giving birth. You can even get the Ken and son with a kite! LOL Nice things to teach boys, huh? Then we have another one from today, Lea. She is scented, I kid you not. She smells like sunscreen and the beach, it’s awesome. And her feet are not ever going to be shoved into too high of heals, even her toenails are painted! My favorite is my Malibu Barbie. This is a remake of the old school Malibu (the difference? This one comes with sunscreen). This was my varsity 4’s little sun goddess. We brought her in the boat for good weather luck (love the rain in Oregon, but not when I am laying down in the bow of a boat!). And isn’t her outfit awesome? That was in my stocking last year, a little hand knit Parisian number. You go Malibu!

Okay so I don’t know why all the Barbies but I love changing their outfits. It’s weird because when I was little I liked my American Girl Doll Kirsten the best. Even in the little doll category Ginny Dolls where my favorite. They are these adorable little chubby girl dolls and they have the best fashion. I kind of just went crazy today and put a bunch of their cute clothes on my wish list on Amazon, so you can check out how cute they are. Speaking of cute, I snapped these of Bj today, I just love that guy:

I dusted his guitar right after this 🙂

His feet, so cute, and my new Old Navy sandals, I ran a girl down in Vegas to find out where she got them, and now I have them too! Yeah!!!

Again with the camera?  Why yes, I just can’t help myself.

I called my dad earlier this week to ask him if he would help me build a rack for all the ribbon that is showing up at my office. He said, “Actually I wanted to ask you if you would help me build something.” Me: “Okay… what?” “A tractor out of cans.” Oh right, why didn’t I think of that?  Well I did help and the above is proof of our efforts (I actually did little compared to the rest of the people who were there from LCG Pence). Anyways I helped him and then he helped me with the ribbon rack. I spent the rest of the day working on this project for the Ribbon Jar. It was such an awesome idea, I’m just finding out it will take lots of work, but hey, I’m up for a challenge! Driving this morning was so gross. Yesterday on the way to Salem there were tons of wrecks, not today. Today we had what I like to think of as the hard core Oregon drivers. Now normally I don’t comment on the rain, because what’s the point, we have it all the time, boring. This morning it was pretty bad though. Surprisingly this brings out good drivers in Oregon. Especially on Saturdays when it’s mostly just people who are driving because they want to get somewhere not because they have to get somewhere (like work). These hard core drivers like to prove that they no how to drive in the rain so, no one slows down and no one looses control. I have to say everyone is very nice on the road when it rains, I do not find this to be the case in all parts of the country. I’ve been places where rain is not normal, and it’s raining, and people are acting like it’s the end of the world. I find that very annoying. On my way home it was absolutely beautiful, sunny, and green, green, green. Compare:

ew this is the morning, that cloud was like, way darker in real life

Isn’t that pretty? I think so. I don’t want you to think I don’t like the rain, because baby I do!

Okay and I came home, walked up to my room and saw this:

Look my little snowman has a tulip!  There was a whole bunch on my desk, but I thought this was just the cutest. Bj always puts my little guys like that when he makes my bed. I’ve been wanting flowers forever, thanks sweetie!
