Our Living, Growing Scrapbook

I’m making a commitment to keep our scrapbook updated. In that vein, I went to Snapfish to upload some of our Christmas photos. I debated about whether to upload them to Walgreens and pick them up or upload them to Snapfish and have them sent to our house. In the end, the Snapfish route was only a little more expensive (I went to retailmenot to get a coupon code), and I think I am more likely to stick to my scrabooking resolution if the prints are delivered to my house. -
Chlorine Water Filter

One of the items on my pre-conception list was to add a chlorine filter to our shower head.

I did a bit of searching, and this one seems to have several positive reviews. Plus, I couldn’t beat the $14.74 price. It looks easy to install and use.
I’m eager for it to arrive!

- makes it a habit to eat home-cooked
