Officially Open - Baby Soft Shoes

August 30th, 2008 Filed under: Carson 2 cents by d.andorf

http://www.babysoftshoes.com

Finally after few months, I decided to create a website dedicated for the baby shoes.  Hopefully I will get more sales not only from craigslist but also from the site.

Please check it out and pass it along to your friends & family.  These shoes are so comfortable and really affordable compare to any other hand made baby shoes even at etsy.com :) hihhihih Do I make any profit? very little but I prefer to help other mommies who don’t want to waste spending 20-30 bucks shoes just to be worn for couple months only. :)

Compare Ames to Top 10 Best Places

Home of Iowa State University, Ames wears its college town moniker with pride.A trip to the Campustown neighborhood offers equal parts Café Beaudelaire and Varsity Theater. Just south of the stadium is an Iowa favorite: the 14-acre Reiman Gardens, home to exotic tropical plants and butterflies from around the world.The perks of living here are palpable: Scotch tape manufacturer 3M and pasta producer Barilla are presences here, and the local transit system, Cy-ride, makes it easy to get around.

No More No More No More

Okay, now I will TRY.. see I used the word TRY, to spend less time in front of the computer and also less time to watch TV.  Myabe 1 hr a day with carissa.  And that limit to a educational cartoon DVD. But I will try not to have TV on at all during Carissa’s awake time.

So if you don’t see me online that much or not replying your email within 5 minutes you sent me (yeah usualy I do that) you know that I’m not trying to ignore you.

Wish me luck…..

Marcus at the State Track meet

June 14th, 2008 Filed under: Carson 2 cents by d.andorf

Marcus competed at the Hersey’s State Track meet today. He qualified by winning the 50 meter dash and the 100 meter dash at the Waterloo District meet (he was also second at the long jump). He competed at the 9 and 10 year old division (he just turned 9). He finished in 13th out of 36 in the 100 meter dash (0.2 seconds from making the finals) and he finished in 9th place out of 34 in the 50 meter dash (0.01 seconds from the finals). We are so proud of him.

Blayke and Marcus both just finished the Iowa State Basketball camp on Friday. It was a week long camp. Blayke won a medal for the free-throw contest and Marcus won two medals in the hot-shot and lay-up competitions.

Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing is like clearing the driveway before it has stopped snowing.

Morgan and Timmy update

August 11th, 2007 Filed under: Carson 2 cents by d.andorf

Morgan’s first new home did not work out. I think it was just too much going with 3 kids, 2 kittens, each neighbor had dogs and being in a new environment with all strangers. After one day they decided Morgan was to much to handle.

Right now he is with a 22 year-old couple. They seem to really like him. They have a rat terrier dog that they claim is more hyper then Morgan. They say the two dogs wear each other out. The couple lives out in the country and they have a big pond - which they said Morgan wanted to swim in it all day - they said they had a tough time getting him away from the water since he liked it so much. We talked to them this morning and they said the two dogs have bonded and were sleeping together right now.

Timmy is still with us and we are waiting for the new owner to pay a deposit for a new pet. I think Timmy misses Morgan - they used to eat together so it is sad when Timmy sits by their room waiting for Morgan.
