A little bit of this and that

Thanks to all of you who either left me comments or emailed me about my last post. After my entire day of freaking out Brian called the clinic to find out that none of their vaccines has the preservative Thimesosal in it. Yay! No more worrying! And thanks for all the chicken pox horror stories, yikes! I'm still not entirely convinced on that one, but maybe if there's a younger sibling around when Cory starts school or hanging out with a bunch of kids then I will have him get it.

And just in case we were wondering where Cory got his love of red... Grandpa Herling sent this to me:
Cory's attraction to RED has its roots in Red
Corvettes (always my favorite color), Grandpa's Red 66
Chevelle (should have never sold it!), Red 73 Ford 4x4
truck (which has a story behind it, or so I'm told), and the 05
Tacoma TRD (strickly business - but still my favorite
color)

Grandpa likes 'red'
How many more random things do I have for you today...

Oh, tons of cool contests!
Like this one at Casual Friday Everyday where you can enter to win a year's subscription to Meal Planning Central. Where you get recipes for an entire (healthy) meal and the shopping list. woo hoo! I SUCK (sorry Mom) at meal planning so this would be great! Not saying I would use every menu I'm sure, but just to have some ideas... yeah!

And for any moms out there who would like some free diapers... here's Parent Product Reviews new website where they're giving away a two month supply of size 3 Luvs diapers. That would sure come in handy around here!

A candle giveaway by Heather! I LOVE candles! My poor husband...

Finally, there's a contest about exercise at The Parent Bloggers where you can win free shoes from Ryka. The company is giving away 50 pairs of shoes PER DAY! I could stand a new pair of tennies... My exercise this week has actually been *fairly* decent. I went for a walk with Cory on Monday, then with him and Annika on Tuesday, and then to the park for a walk with our Baby Brigade yesterday. Wow, 3 times in one week, I think that must be a record! It's nice, but I don't know what we're going to do when it gets too cold. Already going to the park at 9am is COLD! Time to dress warmer and make sure Cory has on more than a onesie and a little blanket. I wasn't expecting that!
(which reminds me I need to get a picture of our Baby Brigade... 3 moms, 6 kids... 2 on tricycles... good times!)

And don't forget to check out the giveaways every day of the week by Shannon at Bloggy Giveaways!

I think that may be all the randomness for today... but here's a final thought: You know your car is in bad shape when it looks better dirty than clean! I washed mine yesterday... eeek!
