Desde California Para Argentina Con Amor...

Today my dad forwarded me an email from his best friend in Argentina and I'm so excited to hear that they actually follow my blog there, I'm officially international. So this next paragraph is basically my shout out to them!

Hola, Tíos Abuelos y primos, estamos muy contentos en saber que ustedes siguen mi blog.  Espero que nos podamos comunicar de esta forma hasta que nos veamos, y espero que sea pronto. JD les manda muchos besitos.

Massive Maclaren Stroller Recall...

After going crazy looking for a stroller last month this recall seems ironic, especially since Maclaren was my first choice.

The CPSC reports that Maclaren USA is recalling all of their single and double umbrella strollers sold from 1999 through November 2009 – about one million strollers, in all. The models affected are Volo, Triumph, Quest Sport, Quest Mod, Techno XT, TechnoXLR, Twin Triumph, Twin Techno and Easy Traveler.

Reports that the hinge mechanism in the back of the stroller can cut (or cut off) a child's fingertips has prompted the recall. If you own one of these strollers, you can contact Maclaren USA at (877) 688-2326 between 8 AM and 5 PM. ET Monday through Friday. Go to http://www.maclaren.us/recall for a repair kit.

Well I have time for one more post and as I promised, I am posting more pumpkin ideas! I some how was talked into hosting Thanksgiving (I secretly wanted to host it anyways), so I have begun my search for the perfect pumpkin decor! Here are some of my favorite ideas.

first day back...

So today was my first day back at work and I made it through the day! The hubby and JD woke up early and actually took me to work, which made it a whole lot easier. Then as I walked out at the end of the day, my boys were waiting outside my building with the biggest smiles (amazingly this is the first time I teared up today)! I really thought I would hate going back to work, but I didn't, especially because I know JD is in good hands and a paycheck surely can't hurt these days (gotta get that white picket fence soon). So here I am, a working wife and mommy, hoping that things stay mellow!
