Notes from A Girls Weekend
1. Even though Pea Daddy was in Vegas all weekend, I saw more scantily clad women than he did. Especially when the girls and I did Pilates in our pajamas this morning. 2. Gigi did a Pilates “V” in a nightgown and put on quite the display. Lulu said, “I see London, I see France, I see Gigi’s underpants.” Gigi replied, “That’s how you know I’m working hard.” Ahh, that’s the secret. Look out gym weight room. Expect to see... Read More
My KIND of Day
Thank you all for the kind birthday wishes yesterday. I’m surprised you even knew it was my birthday! I was so touched by how many of you Tweeted, left Facebook messages, emailed, and sent me coupons for $5 footlongs at Subway (I can’t accept it, it’s too much!). I’m just now getting around to thanking you because we got home late last night from Cirque de Soleil, and then this morning the girls wanted things like “breakfast,”... Read More
The Multi-Task Master
When you are a busy, liquid eyeliner addicted, won’t get up early to workout, always got a new recipe brewing, Facebook friend conflicted mom like me, you learn to get really good at multitasking. Some of the strangest tasks I’ve ever “multied”: Breastfeeding WHILE walking around Disneyland (don’t worry, the Hooter Hider was living up to its’ name and Mickey wasn’t getting a free peek). Read the Bible while... Read More
Pretty Sucky/Still Danged Lucky
This morning I awoke and realized that for everything I could complain about, there are a million reasons to be thankful. Pretty Sucky: My back pain is back to where it was before my procedure a few weeks ago. I haven’t said anything because no one likes a complainer (unless you put “What’s the deal with ___?” in front of it and your name is Jerry). I’m going to the doctor again in the morning, but today I was painfully... Read More
Good Things Come in Daddy’s Package
I must love you all a lot. It is nearly midnight and here I am like a lunatic posting because I operate under the illusion that somehow you won’t survive your Thursday morning without a new post from me. I have my excuses, but hopefully I can reserve those for a later date. Right now, let’s just feel the love. Like the love that fills my heart when I think about what Katie of Chocolate Covered Katie is doing, donating all of her blog... Read More
Little Miss Sunshine
Someone’s got their diapers in a bunch, and for once it’s not Larry King. The day started out great! We were all up at 6:30, but well rested thanks to that extra hour yesterday. I was able to head out for a leisurely 30 minute run on the treadmill, where the Today show pointed out that Matt Lauer did not look like Ellen on Halloween, as I had said, but that he was actually Bruno. I stand corrected. After my run and getting Gigi... Read More
20 Questions
Or maybe just 10. You might be asking: 1) Sweet Lawdy, what happened to Lulu? Lulu was up multiple times during the night with her cold. Luckily, I’ve trained both girls to call “Daddy, Daddy!” in the middle of the night and sometimes I take sleep aids. Unfortunately, Daddy looked worse than Lulu this morning. 2) What are they drinking? Strawberry banana smoothies. Duh. Give me a hard one. 3) What are they watching? Due... Read More
A Day With A Peel
I can’t leave you hanging on the pumpkin situation. Despite my protest desperate excuse that it was still too early and our pumpkins would turn into blue furry mushballs before Halloween, we did in fact get a carvin’. We had a fool proof system. Lulu gutted. Gigi and I drew. Did you know that having your tongue out increases your concentration by 40%? Uh…yeah…and you are also a winner in the British National Lottery…please... Read More
