ALL GIVEAWAYS CLOSED By now y’all know I love entering the giveaway’s and sweepstakes.  I found the greatest site that gives you a good overview at how easy (And how too) enter giveaways. Rachel’s Reviews and Giveaways. I also have her button on my sidebar because she has some great giveaways going! You should go look! One of the giveaways is for Tropical Traditions Coconut Oil.  This one sticks out in my mind because my daughter Selena has been wanting to try it.  Then the Lilla Rose clip giveaway (but you have to hurry fast for this one it ends today (3/16 HA! … sorry! I only saw it this morning and swear I thought it said today! See? Don’t feel bad… I missed it too!) Anyway… if you’ve ever wanted to know how to go about entering giveaways go see Rachel! But…. while you are here… meet the newest Gruning family member…… Look at that cute face!! 10 little fingers, 10 little toes and a………. nope…. you’ll find out on the 2nd of April! HA! (Look at me! 2 days with a secret!!) Updating My SEO Because Even the Internet Needs a Good Declutter If you’ve been poking around…

We saw the new Grandbaby today!!!!!  WOOOO HOOOO! 4D Ultrasound Experience is awesome!! We had 30 minute session. (I have pictures I will have to download tomorrow. For now you’ll have to be happy with the old ultra sound picture) We couldn’t wait around for our copies. Going places for us is an ordeal! DH still can’t drive… so our son had to come to drive us all to the 4D. (DH and I have 2 seater cars! We are 3 since my Mom moved in.  It makes it hard to go places and she won’t get in the trunk!)  (Seriously… my car is small but the trunk is huge!!! I’m just sayin’…) Zac had to get to work after dropping the 3 of us back home… so pictures will be posted tomorrow. Thank you Zachary!  Such a great son!! I have to tell you my Grandbaby is obsessed with hands! And feet!!  One or the other was always in that babies mouth! Such a cute cute face! At one point even making a ‘mean’ face for the camera. I know you’re thinking well… okay blah blah blah blah now what is it?  HA!!!!  You’ll have to wait till the ‘gender reveal’ party on April 2nd. Course my entire family believes I’ll never…

GIVEAWAY CLOSED Yes, I found another giveaway I have to mention!! Is this not right up my alley?!? A PRINCESS PARTY KIT!!!!! Nonnie and Emma could have a PRINCESS PARTY!!  See?? Is this giveaway me or what!?!? Updating My SEO Because Even the Internet Needs a Good Declutter If you’ve been poking around peanutbutterandwhine.com lately and thought, “Huh, something feels different,” congratulations. Your instincts are sharp and possibly paranormal. I’m deep in the process of updating my SEO. Not the glamorous kind of update where confetti falls and Google personally thanks me, but the gritty, behind-the-scenes kind where old posts get dusted off, links get refreshed, and keywords are gently coaxed into behaving better. Think less makeover montage, more haunted house cleanup. While revisiting early posts, I discovered something unsettling. Many of the original photos and videos have completely vanished. Not broken links. Not corrupted files. Gone. Poof. Into the digital ether. This can only confirm one thing: peanutbutterandwhine.com is haunted. There is no other explanation. Sure, it could be old hosting changes, platform migrations, or me being wildly optimistic about my organizational skills a decade ago. But let’s be honest. It’s ghosts. Internet ghosts. Possibly annoyed by my early…

Today was the day we were to find out the sex of BabyT!! We had a 10:00am appointment at the Ultra Sound Experience in San Marcos CA.  Selena was surrounded by everyone from the other set of Grandparents from Tennessee…… an Aunt & niece from L.A. we had family and friends take off work. All in all we had 14 people anxious to see this baby……. and the machine at Ultra Sound Experience is broken…. I can’t even tell you how disappointed we are.  We’ve been looking forward to this for weeks! We’re rescheduled for tomorrow morning at 9am.  Unfortunately not all of us will be in attendance tomorrow. I am so disappointed! It’s only Tuesday and it’s been a BAD week already!! I need shake off this fowl mood I’m in! You know… Wendesday is the new Monday afterall.
