Grocery Bags

I am excessivly excited about my new bags. I can't figure out why I love them so much. I am even laughing at myself about how excited I am about these bags. I walked by a display of bags at Babies R Us the other day. $1.50 for a bag. They had some cute styles so I bought two and then used the bag for my purchases.

The register tag on the bag states "The average person uses over 350 plastic shopping bags a year" I also googled it and in the United States alone, we use 100 billion plastic bags a year. Thats just insane to me. I don't need that many bags! I try to save my plastic bags and recycle them for trash or dirty diapers but I never need as many as I have. Right now I've probably got 50 plastic bags stuffed inside each other in various locations here.

Today I ran out to the bookstore with Emi and Natty. On my way out the door, I grabbed one of my bags and stuffed it in my purse. I used it at the checkout and saved a plastic bag! Yipee!

Aren't they cute?

My New Blog

This is my second attempt at blogging. The first time didn't go so well because I was always locked out of my account. I think I managed to post twice over 2 months and spent several hours a week trying to log in. I'm hoping this time will go better.

Right now I am trying to keep my 4 year old quiet while the 5 month old is napping. It's not very easy and requires a little more of my attention. I will return to make my blog pretty when both little ladies are down for the night.
