What is a wow wow you ask. Well it is a pacifier that my daughter has named wow wow. I have been on the search for a BPA Free one that was not orthodontic or flat or I had to order from another county. It took a long time trying to figure out what kind she like when she was a baby. But once we did it was pure joy. We ended up using the Gerber Round Soft Center pacifier. I just looked it up for a picture and they are being discontinued. I was wondering why they just updated the packaging if they are not going to sell them anymore. That was a waste of money.
So I was at BRU (Babies R Us) today getting some things for a trip. I went to see if they had the Gerber pacifiers (they don't) I came across these Nuby Natural Touch Pacifiers They are BPA Free and say so on the package. They were $5.49 not cheep but is anything baby related. They come two to a package and the colors are pink and purple or blue and green. They also have two sizes which I love, small (0-6 months) and medium (6+ months) The case that the pacifiers comes in is supposed to be used for storage, could use some work. I dropped it and it broke. I usually don't use the cases that pacifiers come with anyways.
My daughter loves them and she has not asked for the Gerber ones so I guess that is a good sign. Now to try and convince my husband to let me get rid of the Gerber ones completely and get the Nuby ones.

Sunny Days
I love sunny days. It reminds me that spring is here and summer is soon to come. Today it is sunny and a bit warmer that it has been the last couple of days. I would rather it been in the 70's but beggars can't be choosers.
So today after dinner or maybe after naps (which are happening right now) we'll go for a walk. Well it's more like I will walk and the kids will sit in the bike trailer. I live for the walks lately. I really should do it in the morning instead of after dinner but I think it tends to break up the day in the evening. I am pretty sure we have gotten our $169 worth out of the Bike Trailer already. I am so glad the hubby finally said yes.
Seriously I really like the trailer. I have a 3.5 yr old and 1.5 yr old and it could be a bit wider in the seating area for the kids. They are in there pretty sung but not complaining. They do have enough room for their legs though. It even has a storage pocket. Big enough for a cup or a small toy. There is plenty of storage in the back to take like a lunch or a couple of blankets with you. We put some library book in a bag back there the other day. I plan on leaving the bike helmet in the back so that way I don't have to search the house for them.The other day we took took a bike ride up to the library and while my husband had a bit of a hard time going up hills (the first time with it on his bike and first bike ride of the season) he said he really didn't notice that it was connected to the bike. Rule #1 when taking things out for the first time don't go somewhere unless it is a couple of blocks from home and not across a couple of main streets.
We went ahead and bought another connector for my bike so I can take the kids for a spin. I am looking forward to burning off some baby fat this summer. =]
So would I recommend this to a family member, friend or just some random person in the store? YES!

Not feeling it.
I am not feeling the name of the blog right now. It was fine for me the other day but now I am like "eh" So now I am looking for a new name for the blog. I want something that screams me yet when someone says the name they get what I am all about. I have been throwing around a few names and nothing has really stood out yet. Too bad I don't any fans quite yet then I could ask for help. Not that big of a deal I have a brain and I know how to use it. =]
There are some other things that I might want to mention. I am a horrible speller and I very rarely use punctuation and the grammar is probably not the greatest. Thank goodness for spell check. Too bad they don't have a grammar check on computers. I could really use it badly. I also like to use smiles but you won't have to see them all of the time. I am not smile crazy or am I? =]
So if you could careless about those things then I say Welcome to(looking for new blog name)!

Welcome!
Hi my name is Jennifer, a stay at home mommy of two. We love to play outdoors in the summer and stay cozy and warm in the winters. Boy did that sound like a looking for add. =]
I am not really sure what direction I want to take the blog to. I know I want it to be exciting, funny, informative and just down to earth. I would love to be a reviewer but I think I am just not quite ready for that yet. I will have to give that some more thought before I jump right in. So for now I will write about what I know and see where it takes me.
I welcome you My Wild Life and I hope you enjoy the ride!
