As I mentioned in my last post about Citrus Lane, my wife and I decided to sign up for six months of Citrus Lane.  In an attempt to further justify our purchase, I figured I would review the contents of each box as they come in every month.  Hopefully, I’ll help someone make a choice […]

Two Week Update – Holy Crap

Seriously…why DON’T they tell you these things?!

You know the one thing I never thought I’d say, writing this blog? “I should have listened to my wife.” Throughout the majority of MOMFC’s pregnancy, my inner-cheapskate really become one with itself when it came to buying stuff for this kid.  Did we really need another box of diapers?  Is he really going to poop […]
