So, we are standing in line for dinner (I’m the take-out Queen!) and this woman on her way to the drink machine stops, says the obligatory ‘What BEAUTIFUL red HAIR!’ and then runs her hands over my childs head to… feel her hair? Admire it’s baby strands? What? The only thing I have in common […]

Ok, usually I am the one hovering behind the cook and ‘sampling’. When my Mom used to make cookies… Ok, when I was HOME to enjoy the fact that my Mom made cookies, I would beg for a beater for the raw cookie dough. YUM! So, this year… I decided that I would try a […]

Oh god, these are hysterical…I’m only on #25 and I’m in tears! Sam is very wary of men at first… so I can just imagine how she will react to Santa!
haha – Actually it’s a pretty cute face, huh? She does this ALL THE TIME now. I didn’t know where she got it from but then I found myself making it back at her and it felt familiar… Is she mimicking me??? She scrunches up her nose, squints her eyes, and smiles. I call it […]
