Hell has frozen over.
He’s pretending he doesn’t like it (nice frown!). But, oh yes, yes he does. He likes it very much.
No cat nip required!
I turned to Eric and I said….oh…my…GOD…look!
(Nice tongue!)
This photo above and the fact that he loves his bed pretty much made my week. :D What could top this?!

Yesterday turned out to be quite a productive day. Eric and I ran some errands, cleaned the kitchen top to bottom, organized our office, and cleaned the back hallway. We also worked on the online shopping cart and added the FAQ page. Check it out if you haven’t read it on the website yet!
Last night I got caught up on my lack of sleep too! I went to bed around 9:45pm and slept until about 8am. Holy moly!!!!!! I guess I was tired. I am trying to mentally prep myself for my long run today (12-13 miles) and it may be my last long run like this before my half marathon (which is just 13 days away!!!).

I received an email from a reader named Sarah this weekend. Sarah took the plunge and tried making my Vegan Peanut Butter and Jam Glo Bites.
Here are some more pictures from when I made them that I didn’t have time to share with you in my previous post:
So gooey and delicious!!!!!!!!!
Drooling yet?
Sarah wrote:
I just made the PB + J Glo Bites.. and delicious doesn’t even BEGIN to describe how good they are.
Although I’ve always been very happy with your recipes, I must admit, i was skeptical; pb and j sandwich ? mmm. pb and j in a cute little tart? ehh, cute idea, not so sure.
ALL my original worries were totally wrong. These are AMAZING and one of my new fav recipes. Plus, they’re easy, look adorable, and are easy to transport (ie work school road)
thanks for another one for my recipe file!!!!
Thanks Sarah!
Want to make these yourself but don’t have any nut butter? Well, read on for a huge giveaway!

Recently, my friend and her husband opened up their own business called Baby Enchanted.
Baby Enchanted is an upscale retail website specializing in the most luxurious and unique products for babies and toddlers.

Whether you are looking to design an entire nursery from scratch or you need that extra special baby shower gift, Baby Enchanted’s exquisite selection of items from celebrity go-to designers will enable you to find the perfect item every time."
Because Bree is such a fabulous gal, she wants to do a fun contest giveaway featuring one of the food blogosphere’s favourite treats- Barney Butter! And guess what Canadians? She is even opening it up for you as well! As you may know, Barney Butter is not sold in Canada (to my knowledge!).

I will also be doing another product review for Project Natural Glow. :)
I crave the beige bunny lamp … not to mention the ‘Baby Sleeping’ sign with that adorable ribbon. Sigh.
Fanned on Facebook and will also Tweet — 6 jars of Barney Butter is too good not to tweet about!!
Thanks Ange :-)
I love the moses baskets…adorable! I also tweeted about the contest. Yum yum barney butter!
I love the Babycakes. They’re so cute and classy. I just wish more goodies came in cake form like that!
I just tweeted about it too – @AnnaLKeller barney butter giveaway! http://bit.ly/4DtPAa
I’ve never had Barney Butter, so I really hope to win!
I am in love with those pirate high tops on the website! Super cute!
Thanks for the giveaway Angela! I have been pumped to try Barney Butter :) And the PB&J bites are the next baked good on my list to try.
Look at those cute little pettiskirts! OMG!! So goregous! My DD would love to wear those!
I’m defintiely going to be trying those PB&J bites now! Must go buy supplies!! :)
I love all the cute accessories, especially the baby legs. So Cute!!!
It’s gotta be the All Star Bench Toy Chest. Reminds me of my old toy box but way cooler.
I love your blog, it is so wonderful and very inspiring. I used your recipe for pb & j and my 2 year old at about 1/4 cup of the crust mix before I got a chance to put them in the mini-pan!
Wonderful website, babyenchanted, I love it! Right up my alley. THe best thing I saw so far is the Busy Bee Red Messenger Backpack. So many diaper bags are so cute but so impractical, this one looks like it is very cute and organized, and you can wear it comfortable while toting a two year old and while 25 weeks pregnant! :-)
Keep up the great blog, it is amazing!
i love love the belle baby carrier! so snuggly.
the little dresses are also adorable. makes me wish i had a little one to dress up!
(i tweeted)
I’m not gonna lie I am a bag person and I just love the candy stripe bangle clutch!! SO CUTE, when I have a baby the candy stripe diaper bag is pretty cute too!
Going to tweet now!
HA!! Hell yes for Sketchie loving the bed :-D
The Animal Suduku prints are so cute! I don’t have kids and I still want those. Hopefully no one thinks I am announcing anything by becoming a Facebook Fan ;)
Sketchie was getting in that bed on Sketchie’s time, no one elses.haha…that’s so cute!I love kitties:-) cc
What an awesome post!!! And yay for Sketchie using his bed! hooray:)
I love the Green by De Diaper bag from Baby Enchanted – so cute!
I just became a fan on Facebook, too! I’m definitely going to let my girlfriends who are pregnant know about this website:)
Thank you so much for going the extra mile and doing that! We really appreciate it!! :-D

I absolutely love the Allegro cradle. Also fanned on face book.
Oh my gosh YES he finally got in his bed!!!! I love Sketchie.
I have a thing for bags in general, but when I see a really cute baby bag, I fall in love. Moms need something cute to carry around too! [I’m not a mother, but I can’t wait to be one someday, and get to carry around a CUTE baby bag!] I loved the “Black Truffle Diaper Tote”
[I don’t have facebook, so I tweeted instead! – @rejazz]
I love the bamboo and silk “lovie” blankets.
And I tweeted the contest :) Can’t pass up a chance for free nut butter!
I’ll be tweeting in a little while… but I am definitely buying the 5 little monkeys gift set for my pregnant friend!!
Thank you Mara!!
