Stop Queasiness with a lip balm!

Nothing is worse than feeling queasy when your pregnant. Whether it's because your sense of smell is heightened, and everything from eggs to perfume to smoke are extra annoying, or it's just the mere fact that another HUMAN is now making it's home inside your body, it is SUCKY! Making sure you eat enough protein and Sea Bands are good options to keep that awful feeling at bay, and I just came across another

January Book Review~BIRDS!

I Love this book!

As you may know, I am obsessed with birds, and I came across this beauty at the Library and instantly fell in love!
Created by a husband-and-wife team, this yummy picture book bridges the space between concept books and longer narrative stories, making it perfect for little ones, and a gorgeous tribute to our avian friends.

(My favorite page)
Henkes’ words have a lyrical beauty, while Dronzek’s bright acrylic paintings, in saturated primary color and heavy black outlines, reflect the text’s plain elegance while carrying an  energy all their own.

"Once I saw seven birds on the telephone wire. They didn't move and they didn't move and the didn't move. I looked away for just one second...and they were gone."

Delicious!
