Another pretty cool site that Colin's subscribed to for years is MyTowne.com. It's one of those sites where you register for free, then once a week they send you an email and you click on the link to see if you're one of the 100 weekly winners. There are a bunch of ads on the [...]

I found a useful tool today in Utah Diners Guide. I wonder why it's not Utah Diner's Guide (with an apostrophe), though. It seems to have a fairly comprehensive list of places to eat in Utah with reviews. I think the reviews are probably all good because of the bias of being paid by the [...]

I have a store! You can link to it here, or click on the BethanyJensen.com Stuff Store link on my blogroll. It's mostly just shirts and stuff that say www.bethanyjensen.com. There are a few things that are a little less boring, including cocoa mugs that say Not Coffee and This is Hot Chocolate. Next time we have two cars, I'm going to [...]

In November 2006, on the recommendation of a friend, we bought a parenting book called Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child by Marc Weissbluth. At the time we were a month into having a new baby and we'd been dealing with Degen's crazy sleep habits for months and were just about at our sleep-deprived wits' end. I [...]

I mentioned Magleby's in my post last week, but we went again last night and had a fun experience with our gift certficate.
I've been babysitting once a week for a lady down the street who has a son about Degen's age, and we've been debating a good compensation/trade and finally decided on her taking [...]

Now that I've been a mom for a couple of years, you might say that I'm an expert of sorts in disposable diapers. I've tried cloth diapers, but I'm not a huge fan so I haven't spent the time with cloth that I have with disposable. I think I've tried just about every disposable brand [...]
