Aliens in Underpants Save the World: Children's Book Review

Aliens in Underpants Save the World




This currently is Monkey's favorite book. We have to read it every day before naptime and bedtime. I have tried to convince him to read something else and it's just not happening. I'm about ready to return it to the library just to stop reading it. 

Don't get me wrong...it's a great book. Really, it's super cute and is one that will help teach Monkey about imaginary things. Obviously, the fact that there are aliens flying space ships here to steal our underwear is fictitious. Then to add that they saved our world by sewing all the underwear together to stop a meteorite from destroying our planet, which would be there underwear supply, is also fictitious. 

These things are the things that make this book so fun for Monkey. At three he enjoys reading many books that are about real things that interest him such as bugs and animals. I try to always pick books from the library that he can learn from but I also go through and pick out books such as Aliens in Underpants Save the World to promote his learning the imaginary.  I find that just as important as learning about real life things. 

If you are looking for a cute story for your kids to enjoy this is one I would highly recommend. It is adorable and I loved reading it to Monkey the first 20 or so times. Now though I'm just sick of it. Hopefully we can move on to a new book soon or have another library day soon so we can return it.

Day 2 of 31 Day to Clean

So I have told you the other day that I'm going to start 31 Days to Clean by Sara Mae. (For that post go to 31 days to clean post). So I'm finally on day 2 after several days in between. This will be the way it is for me because not everyday I will be able to tackle a big task, like day number 2, but I did it today and that is what counts. So what was day 2...clean the refrigerator and freezer (at least the Martha part) so that's what I did. I cleaned the refrigerator not that long ago but I figured I would just do it again and I'm glad. Just after about 2 months (maybe 3) it really needed cleaned again and I'm really happy that it looks really nice and I can find all the stuff that is in there again. I think that I'm going to put this on my To Do list every other month. I think that would be really helpful and that way it stays clean. I'm just going to put it in my day planner and when I have some free time on day I will do it that month. Sounds like a pl...

Changing My Lifestyle!

Well not only walking but just in general changing my lifestyle. I am currently overweight according to the doctors and the horrible BMI chart by 60 pounds. I seriously don't think that I will ever loose that much weight ever again. If I do great but not my goal because I want something attainable.  I have tried some many different things to lose weight and it just never works. Before I was pregnant I was right where I am now. My body has changed since I was pregnant but the weight is still the same. The good news I didn't gain anything after the pregnancy but the bad news is I still need to do something. So I'm going through the Made to Crave book and I love it. I have decided to change many different things about my lifestyle. I want to be able to have the energy to keep up with Rex and enjoy my life and right now it just doesn't seem to be everything it should be.  So here is what I have started doing...I eat only things God created. Fruits, veggies, healthy...

Frumpy or Fabulous?

Staying at home can create a sense of comfort. Allowing to stay in PJ's all day, enjoying just lounging of the couch and eating bon bon's. However for most of us homemakers we do not have this luxury of lounging and bon bon's. We have things to do with our children, house cleaning to do, and many thing outside of the house. Sometimes getting dressed in the morning just seems pointless. Excuses like I have to clean so why would I put on my 'nice' clothes or the baby is just going to spit up on me so I should just stay in my pj's since I will have to change later anyway. These are valid reasons on some  days to stay in our pj's but most  days we should get up and get ready just like if we worked outside of the home. It shows our husbands that we care about him and we try to make sure that we look good for him. It also shows are children good habits of getting up and getting dressed and ready for the day. If you read in Proverbs 31 you will see what a wif...
