With Christmas Eve being T minus...a few minutes...I still had a few last gifts to wrap! I finished up with no time to spare. I'm usually SOOOO NOT last minute, but apparently, when you become a mommy, that all changes. I'm wondering why I went to all the trouble of wrapping...P could have cared

I think it's pretty clear, from all my posts, that Gigi and Papa SPOIL the P Man rotten!! Papa is a retired Director of Manufacturing and Gigi is a retired (well maybe not retired yet) Domestic Goddess = as she calls herself. They are kind enough to keep the P while J and I work (could we be any

P has set his eyes on the big man in the red suit quite a few times. Like most kids his age, he doesn't seem to like him too much. There is no smiling. No laughing. No clapping. And definitely No hugging. All P had to offer to Santa...his "mean face" (if you don't remember "mean face"...click here).

I have been dying to blog about this story for a few days now, but haven't had the chance. So finally...I have a few minutes to tell you just exactly what my two mother's have been up to lately. As you know, J's ma is here from Las Vegas (she actually just left last night, but has been here for 2

Saturday night was the BIG work Christmas party! We started the night at Fusion, a local cocktail bar, where J and I met a few SIH friends. The party started at 6 pm so we didn't get too many pre-drinks in before it was time to head to the big event. In fact, I started with a caramel latte and had

Not only is my lil guy rotten...he knows how to give the "mean" face...ALREADY! I have no idea where he picked this up from, but all the sudden he started giving us these really mean looks. It is SOOO funny! And, ofcourse, now it's a game. When mommy says "give me your mean face"...this is what

If you really want something…just ask Grandma!

I think it's easy to generalize...ALL grandma's like to spoil their grandkids. Hence, why mommy's sometimes turn out to be the "bad guy". Well, having TWO grandma's in our house makes it DOUBLE-Y bad!! Here's what I found when I came in the kitchen the other night. Gigi, Gma Lilly (Ye-ye), P and

Auntie came over Sat. night to hang and chat. Ofcourse, she didn't come empty handed...she rarely ever does. Kiki sent her with an early Christmas gift for the P-man. He was so excited to open it. Christmas this year is going to be so much fun now that he's in to the unwrapping. He got the cutest

Mommy thought it would be fun to see "nap time" from P's perspective. I'm lucky I didn't break the mattress. P thought it was pretty cool that mommy was in his sleepy time place. In fact, now everytime he goes to sleep...he thinks mommy should get in too. I must admit, it was pretty cozy.

J & I are HUGE shoppers; however, we usually don't battle the BLACK FRIDAY crowds. I say "usually"...because this year we made an exception...and went to see what it was all about. I can't say we got much shopping accomplished. We purchased a few Christmas presents and called it a day. P got a

Ok, so I know I haven't really talked about my job much because I try and keep my blog stress-free...but it's time I let it out!!! Today...was "one of those days!" First, let me start by saying that even though I am about to complain...I have one of the BEST jobs on the planet and it's a good
