~It’s back to school for L today (he was off all last week for winter break) and while B’s off today, it will be nice to get back into a routine this week! I am hoping with B home today I will be able to get some things done that haven’t been getting done, but we’ll probably end up running errands and at lunch instead (which would be okay too ;)).

L and the Weinermobile!
L and the Weinermobile!

~I am not expecting a ton of boxes this week, but I know for sure I will be getting bluum, Mantry, GLOSSYBOX, Bespoke PostSilly Rhino and maybe one or two more?  But I do have tons of reviews to get posted though including The Bride Box, Kiwi Crate, Project DIY, Appleseed Lane, Carefree Crafts, The Frisque Box, Adventure Trunk and Bike Loot.

~Poor WB is still not feeling well.  His trip to Urgent Care last week fixed his croupy cough up (have I mentioned I love the people at our Urgent Care?), but he’s teething like crazy and is SO mad about it.   I don’t know how, but that guy champed it out in the car and up-north on Saturday.  I think even L feels bad for him.

~I shouldn’t be excited about this because I have enough MUK LUK slippers to last a lifetime, but I am pumped that they are back on HauteLook today (11am EST)!!!  I am hoping to scoop up a few new pairs because, umm, I am obsessed.

I have my eye on those middle ones...
I have my eye on the ones the third from the right.

~FabFitFun released their second spoiler for the Spring 2014 Box and it’s the Kai Perfume Oil with a retail value of $48.  We received this back in a PopSugar box once and I liked it, so I am cool with getting more of it!

~I caught up on last week’s Teen Mom last night and every week, I wonder is anyone ever going to discuss Kailyn’s tattoos?  I feel like all of a sudden they just appeared no?  And Jenelle and Nathan, oh my goodness.  I mean I know you are so OMG in love, but that doesn’t mean you need to have a baby together???  And I am way too excited to watch the the Catching Up with Farrah, Catelynn and Amber episodes that were on last night.  Honestly please let these show up somewhere on my tv ASAP.

~I am thinking of trying a new box for March and want some opinions!  I am deciding between Hazel Lane, Besh Box, A Kitchen Box, Hammock Pack and Quarterly Co.  Thoughts?  Whatever the winner is, I’ll review one for March!
Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.

That’s it for now, but what’s up for your Monday?

    So I’ve at least heard of these but never really looked at them. Quartlery sounds like Fancy with its guest curators but you totally need to get the Coco one. That one looks right up your ally 😉 The food ones really sound more like they are for B then you but still fun.

    1. Jennifer

      I think I would have trouble picking a Quarterly Co. one! You think Coco??

      1. Jenny

        I like the idea of the book riot but I have so much trouble even reading what I have so to get more is hard. Coco just sounds swanky and fun. Food52 looks like another TF type box. Poketo sounds fun too. Oh maybe I need the unclutterer box I could really use that. LOL oh and I love Bill Nye too. Grr so hard to pick. I would have to do some investigation to see what kindof stuff is in the boxes.

        1. Jennifer

          I know, there are just so many!

  2. Laura

    Teen mom updates are on again tues afternoon

    1. Jennifer

      I don’t get cable ;(

  3. Shelby

    I watched all the Teen Mom specials but I had to turn off Farrah’s halfway cause I wanted to slap a bitch.

    1. Jennifer

      LOL. I need to watch!

    2. Rebecca

      I had to turn hers off too. I think I was a quarter of a way through it. Ugh!!!

    The two I liked the most have the least votes!! I like hazel lane and besh box. I voted for besh box…. I thought the besh box was like a peach dish box… but I don’t think you get the ingredients to make a meal? But I still want to see what you’d get in it… similar to the Tyler Florencebox maybe?

    1. Jennifer

      I think Besh Box is more similar to TF! There are so many I want to try!

  5. Tabitha

    Looks like the Teen Mom specials will be on again tomorrow. So glad because I didn’t even know anything about them.

    1. Jennifer

      I don’t have cable!

      1. Tabitha

        Looks like the Being Amber special is available on mtv.com but I don’t see the others. Also there is a Maci special online that aired in the fall. Somehow I missed that one too!

    OMG I watched Teen Mom last night, I have all the special recorded but was to tired to watch, I will try to get them all watched this week.
    Yea Kailyn is TATTED UP!!
    I LOVE CORY’S DAD, he just seems like such and amazing supportive and loving guy!
    I can’t believe Jenelle she is INSANE and he friend is asking her how do you think Jace will feel that a new baby is living with you and he can’t and she like I think he will feel protective and like a helper!?!?!?! Umm I don’t think she even understands the question.

    1. Jennifer

      I LOVE Cory’s Dad!

    I think it’s kind of funny that Farrah is on VH1’s Couple’s Therapy by herself since her supposed other half failed to show up.

    1. Jennifer

      The pretend other half? LOL!

  8. Olivia Coleman

    Just a little fun fact? Jenelle lives (or lived, I’m not aware any longer, I truthfully have never had much interest in the show) in my area and went to my community college for her short stint in school.

    1. Jennifer

      I think she lived in Myrtle Beach now (why do I even know this)?? That is so funny! Do you know where Barbara lives??

  9. Catherine Faulkenburg

    I have a tether over here too. It’s so much of a pain that I wrote a post about it for our local moms blog. I have tried everything and he is still absolutely miserable.

    1. Jennifer

      Seriously WB is a mess. I feel so bad for him!

  10. Bethany

    I signed up for FFF with your link the other day!! I am super excited. I picked Quarterly–seems like they have lots of options! I wonder if I’d like it better than Fancy…

    1. Jennifer

      I think I Quarterly might have too many options. I can never decide so I just don’t order!

  11. Ally

    Have you received a shipping e-mail for Glossybox yet?? I have read about people not receiving their Jan or Feb boxes and usually by now I have received a shipping confirmation e-mail, so I am getting scared!!

    1. Jennifer

      Not yet! Sometimes my boxes just appear though??
