Can’t Tell Me Nothing -Baby Review Edition

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E58qLXBfLrs&w=560&h=315] It's funny when you become an expectant parent.* There is just so....much...shit...to choose from. Really, there is. And every company is like a drug dealer...'Hey baby...you know want this high chair. It'll make you feel real good.' So, today's post is about the hits and misses of things we had purchased or used over the past two years. If I can save you a bit of heartache (and money!), I've done

Meet the Blussians: Light Saber Battle

So last Friday, the three of us went to the Light Saber Battle in Downtown L.A. Yeah, you read that right - a Light Saber Battle. I wasn't able to get any light sabers for myself (by the time I shopped for some, the last one left was a really cool Darth Vader one that $50. Yeah. Even though we had $50, I couldn't fathom spending that much on

#TBT – Grand Park LA edition

From last year. We often go several different parks in the area, though Bear has an obvious favorite park. Here are some pictures from our adventures in Grand Park last year during the winter time. Yeah, it was that warm enough where we could take Bo to the water park. I want to say it was sometime in December, given the NYE poster behind him. [gallery ids="1527,1528,1530,1529" type="square"]

Beyond Black or White…

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdSohoIEWuQ&w=560&h=315] Recently, actor Taye Diggs made a controversial statement regarding his biracial son. In short, he said he wants his son to embrace being biracial and not choose between being Black or White. Needless to say, it got real in these internet streets! While I do applaud Mr. Diggs for being aware of the challenges his son might face, I also have to side-eye him. (And his defense didn't help matters,

I Can’t Go For That

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccenFp_3kq8&w=420&h=315] I can honestly say I do not like my in-laws. I've struggled for a while to write this post simply because I really don't want to put family drama on blast, at least not anymore. But sometimes, you have to call people out on their bullshit, even if they're related to you. Long story short, my in-laws do not fully accept Bo. Not sure if they ever did or ever

Shake Your Body To The Ground

Seriously...check out this video of Michael and his background singers brothers.

Do any other parents experience the same?
Biracial Hair Care, Meet the Blussians

Biracial Hair Care Review Part Deux

I'm starting to get the hang of this whole vlog thing. Anyhoo, I reviewed the Kinky Curly detangling cream. I actually use it for my hair and I really liked it so I tried it on Bo's hair. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mWZz5YD4No&w=560&h=315] IMHO, I think the Cantu actually worked better. Not sure because it's actually designed for kids as oppose to Kinky Curly which is designed for everyone. I also purposely kept this video instead

Nothing Even Matters

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aDIqM0n0Eg&w=560&h=315] Nothing new to update here. Today, I'm 12 DPO and I did test this morning. BFN. Honestly, I'm not that bummed about it. This past month was really shot because of the heat wave and our timing wasn't great. It wasn't like Cycle #2 where we really tried and still failed (that feeling really sucks, btw). So I'm hoping Cycle #4 is our lucky one. I've slacked on my daily walks so
