Sorry I am so lagging at this thing lately. I guess there has been nothing too exciting happening in my life. It is still hot out here, which limits activity for us. My husband built a sandbox for Julia over the weekend. It is huge (10x10) that I can sit in my beach car while she buries my feet in the sand. The only drawback is that now there is sand all over my house- even in our bed!! It is great though!

We are going to celebrate my in-laws 45th wedding anniversary this weekend. I get to see my sister in law, who I adore! We also get to have fancy brunch at the Hotel Casa Del Mar in Santa Monica. I just can not imagine being married for that long! Not that I don't want too, but I have only been married for almost 4 years and even that seems like a long time. I guess you really get to know someone after all that time. I think that it is wonderful and they are still so in love!

Well I am off to get stuff for dinner! Thanks for reading!

Wow it is been a while since I have posted! I know everyone is eagerly waiting for me to post! Anyway, it is so hot out here that it feels like summer in the middle of winter. I love my house and the people I have met out here, but I could so do without the desert heat! And this is only a taste of what it is going to be like this summer!

So Julia has dance class today so we will see what happens. There is now another girl in her class and I have finally met a stage mom. Hello- she is only 2! Most of the moms I enjoy, but this one I could do with out. I will have to write about that later!


Well I hope everyone has a good day! Thanks for reading!

God- I feel like all I ever talk about is my kid being sick! I promise that I will not ever again after this! But she is sick AGAIN! Luckily it is just a cold. I love her doctor 1) because he is hot! 2) because he always gives me medicine that aids in Julia sleeping at night. I am not sure if those are good reasons, but he is a good doctor! So there is my rant and rave about Julia being sick- AGAIN!

Okay so I am addicted to the show "America's Next Top Model". It is on my TiVo season pass manager so I get it taped every Tuesday night. Why do I like this show? Well, I think because it is interesting to see the steps that one must take to be a model. (like I will ever need to know that information) And I do enjoy drama and this show has it! Nest week one of them does the dirty deed with someone other than her boyfriend- oh boy I can not wait! Oh yeah and by the way- TiVo rocks! I think that it should be a standard thing in everyone's household. I use mine everyday! It is really worth the money.

Well I am house bound so I am sure there are other things that will come to my mind. Thanks for reading!

Wow- I have not updated in a while. Was I busy? Doesn't feel like I was! Anyway, my husband and I made a headboard this weekend for our bed. I wish I could show you a picture! It is massive- maybe a little too big (36 inches from the top of the bed!!). It looks like a bed that you would find in a penthouse suite. It grows on me everyday so I will get used to it!

So most of Julia's little play friends are sick so we have been staying in the last two days! My friend Leila told me that there are 16 different virus kids are supposed to get before they are 2!! Poor babies! Let the "Circle of Sick" continue!!! Just please stay away from my house for the time being- I am over my kid being sick!

Glad to say that my best friend Summer will be moving to CA in the next couple of months! She has been to Oregon and the rain too long! I am excited because that mean maybe our kids will be able to hang out together more often! So Summer- we are happy and it is time you came home!

Well have a good Tuesday!

Thanks!
