Sadly, every day I am reminded of why abstinence only education in our schools is NOT working

Tis the season....

Last night we took Murph to our local super duper do it all retail center. This is the same place where I get my truck serviced, the Chief gets his haircut, we buy groceries, and occasionally enjoy a filet o fish. Last night our goal was to get pictures celebrating Murph's first 6 months. He was not amused. He did all right, but our normally happy, smiley could not find the humor in 3 adults making faces and funny noises at him. He looked so darn cute, but alas.... was more interested in his feet than looking at the camera. Good thing we only paid the Low Low price of 6.99. We'll try again next week with his holiday gear on.

Speaking of our trip last night. I noticed a bit of a theme when I unloaded the shopping cart. See if you can find a pattern.

Item 1 (ok, it was really was the ingredients to make item 1 which included chocolate, peppermint extract and candy canes)







Item 2 (a four pack of my liquid obsession)


Item 3 (because sometimes you aren't thirsty)


Item 4 (because Item 2 was only a 4 pack... and let's be realistic, the way I'm guzzling those we really can't expect a 4 pack to last forever!)

Houston? I think I might have a problem. If I keep up with shopping trips like this it won't be long before I'm going to be decking the halls with pants that don't fit!

Hey pretty lady.... got a date for the prom yet?


I'm stretched out and ready to shake what my mama gave me.

I'm a terrible blogger. I knew I would be, but I have even exceeded my own low expectations. Is it possible to exceed in a negative manner?

Murph is walking now. Just up and started running around. We were so proud. Nearly as proud as the first time he said pneumonoultrascopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. (thirdworst, that is for you and the trauma an english teacher once put my sorry non spelling self through. I still don't think I spelled it correctly!)

Ok. I lied. He isn't walking quite yet. But it was my way of making some of you slackers feel bad! =)
