Princess and the Frog

Movie


I didn't see this movie right when it came out because it came out when I was in college and I only watched what was actually on TV. Yeah that was a long time ago. After a little while I started getting movies from Redbox a lot but that was later. I didn't see it until probably 3 years later in fact. But I loved it from first watch! It had everything that Disney princesses need but also has the fun New Orleans vibe that I desperately want to experience in real life.
Anika Noni Rose was also in Dreamgirls so you know she's one of my favorite singers. They also got TV royalty Terrance Howard, John Goodman and Oprah! I love Disney anyway but I love that this is the first American princess (at least I think it is...) Also I really appreciated that she and the prince were both supposed to learn. Most Disney movies like this expect the princess to just sit around until the prince comes to find her. It was time for a more accurate view of women.
Ne-yo sings a song for it and it also became one of my favorite songs. The soundtrack is so good!

The Hating Game

Lucy Hale is enough to sell this movie to me. But it was really good anyway. A little predictable but that's not surprising for a rom com. The fun thing about this movie is that it really has a real rivalry. And takes place in publishing. Is publishing that big of a deal? There seem to be a lot of movies and TV shows around publishing. But it's about this small, cute, sweet book publisher who merges with a bigger, stiffer, more capitalist book publisher. And then the teams war against each other. So a lot of it is about the work rivalry but it is also about Lucy and Austin Stowell and how they interact together. It's cute. I would totally watch it if I were you.

You

TV show Psychological thriller if there ever was one! Penn Badgley plays the perfect insane character! He's got this look that just scares the crap out of me! The main girl is amazing too but she's nothing compared to Penn. Shay Mitchell is also one of my favorite people from her Pretty Little Liars days. She also plays her character well and I love her. The story has enough real life to make it believable but also enough crazy to well make it crazy. This isn't going to be a long post because only season 1 is on Netflix so there is only 10 episodes but I think they're still going because IMDB has 2 seasons and they left it open. So I will wait patiently for the next installment because I like Penn anyway but this is a new level for him.

Baby is real

I think I felt the baby move. It was very trippy. But very cool as well. We also found out recently that it's a girl. I'm having a baby girl. Now that I'm showing and feeling it and can shop for it, it all seems more real. This isn't going to be a long post because there isn't a lot to say. I'm really not doing much but growing a human is enough for me I guess. So we've started shopping. We have a crib, a bassinet and some artwork for the nursery. Also we just have a bunch of cute clothes. Not anything real big although she's going to be born in winter. The next step is a carseat stroller combo. Any suggestions? Basically I want just a bunch of black or grey onsies for her easy clothes and then sweats and leggings to wear over them.
