Out of curiosity, do any of you use Kenra Volume 25 hairspray? If so, have you had any problems with it lately? I bought a can about a month ago and after two weeks it stopped spraying. Ulta was nice enough to exchange it for a new can with a different lot number, but after a couple of weeks the same thing happened. Anybody else have this problem? And can anyone recommend an alternative hairspray?

Did you have a nice three-day weekend? My father-in-law and aunt-in-law spent the weekend with us, and in addition to having a really nice time visiting, they also helped us get our crib purchased and put together. We've also purchased and put together a dresser already, so I feel like we've made a pretty good start on the nursery already.

Anyways, here are some interesting links to start of this week. (I didn't realize it at the time, but there are quite a few Star Wars-related links...guess I'm getting excited for the new movie!)
