Our first Citrus Lane Box

I signed up for Citrus Lane* back in March and was really bummed when I found out that we wouldn't get our first box until May. However, it was so worth the wait! 

We got the 11 month box for Fynn:
First Look: We were excited! 



 Green Toys Stacker ($14.99): I had never heard of this brand before, but when I went to their website I discovered that it's an eco-friendly brand and that this toy was made from 100% recycled plastic milk containers which is really cool. When I told Drew this, his first response was "I hope they washed those containers first". 


 Dapple Travel Size Dish Liquid ($2.12): This stuff is supposed to easily remove milk, formula and baby food from containers. This is perfect because we're going to a wedding this weekend, so this is the perfect size soap to throw into our bags. 

Ella's Kitchen Apple and Ginger Baby Cookies ($4.25): These are healthy(er) baby cookies. I thought they tasted great, but Fynn doesn't love them. Zoey likes them though. I put one on the ottoman while I picked Fynn up, Zoey snagged it as she ran by and scarfed it down. 

Bear Takes a Trip ($6.99): We love books, so this was 
perfect for us. It's a sturdy board book with bright colors. Fynn's already enjoying "reading" it.


 Deep Steep Lavender and Chamomile Moisture Stick ($5.95): This smells amazing and is supposed to be more moisturizing than lotion which is great because I get super dry skin and hate slathering on lotion all the time. I love how this is a lot cleaner than lotion.

I'm really happy with this months Citrus Lane* box. I only spent $11 on this months box (usually it's $21) and the items we got totaled $34.30. A good deal either way, but a really good deal when you have $10 off.

Thursday Thoughts

Thursday Thoughts

I'm linking up with Jennifer again for Thursday Thoughts:

  • I'm home today. After a L-O-N-G field trip with my class yesterday, I took a medical day today to make up for the fact that I had to go 10+ hours without nursing or pumping yesterday. Can you say ouch? Cause I did.
  • I also said ouch yesterday because I was stupid enough to think that climbing the Bunker Hill monument in Boston. All 294 steps of it. Brilliant move Amanda. I could barely move afterward, and my quads are killing me today.
Doesn't she looks so old?
  • Fynn suddenly seems so much older. Her face has thinned way out and she just looks like such a toddler now... she's not my bitty baby any more. It's both exciting, because she's growing and learning so much, and sad, because I miss my teeny tiny baby. 
  • How cute his Drew and his baby? I love watching the two of them together and seeing how much they love each other. Boo is obsessed with her Daddy and lights up when she sees him. I'm shocked that I'm not jealous, but their relationship just melts me so much that I can't do anything but love watching them together


  • There are 14 days left of school. 14. Where did this year go? I'm excited, because it means summer vacation will start and I get to spend a lot of time with Boo this summer... but it's also a little sad. I LOVE my class this year. Love them. They are bright, caring, and enthusiastic learners who I love working with every day... I'm really going to miss them. 
  • Fynn started swim lessons two weeks ago. Oh-my-the cuteness. It's so much fun being in the pool with her. I need to steal the pix off Drew's phone so I can do a post on it soon!
