Home Crabby Home

Well, I have been home just long enough that I can hear Olivia's whining in my sleep, my patience or lack-there-there-of, is back to its normal level, and while Jake's quoting of Ludacris's song "Get Back" was cute the first few times, being told, "Mommy, you don't KNOW me like that!" full with attitude and hand gestures....is getting pretty old.

Au, contraire mon fraire.....my sweet, not quite seven, little white boy. I DO know you like that, and I have pictures to prove it! Don't make me show you and scar you for life.

I am already thinking back to the good times of trip....you know, before celebrities starting dropping like flies.

I loved having the king size bed all to my self! No snoring hubby next to me, no snoring golden retriever at the foot of the bed, and no children waking up in the middle of the night or at the butt crack of dawn....and I brought my own plo-plo (pillow) to complement theirs. Black out curtains and setting the air conditioner just how I liked it, and total control of the remote control, equaled Perfection.




I also got to eat absolute grown-up food. We didn't have to take into consideration one little bit whether they would have one solitary bite of food that children would like or eat. So we went hog wild. Just looking at all that sushi makes my mouth water.



Now that the hammer is home again, we all need an attitude adjustment so we can enjoy the rest of our summer! Nothing like fireworks to get everyone in a great mood.....I hope you all have a wonderful holiday weekend!

Yeah, I'm heading out of the country for awhile - solo - for business and looking forward to it for nearly all the same reasons!

I hope Peaches never snores... Hirschi barks in her sleep all the time and moves her paws like she is running. :)

I can't even begin to imagine what a grown-up trip would be like!! That's it!! I am living vicariously through you!!! ...as long as I can spell it right, that is!

Paula bishop said its really interesting....There’s no denying that we love the delicate, creamy taste of bread, pastry and other goods made with white flour. And there’s no point in even discussing our built in taste for refined sugar. But these are the types of foods that cause the massive insulin response in our bodies which leads to overeating, cardiovascular diseases and diabetics.Being a mom I use to struggle with the eating patterns of my child and then I found a resource which proved very useful. sign up for this program on http://www.habitchanger.com/retail/feedingyourkids/
