Deep Thought for the Day...

Why is bathtub poo never solid enough to scoop...
but never runny enough to send down the drain?

Happy 4th!

This is the first weekend in (literally) several months we haven't gone out of town or had guests visiting. In light of this, we're hunkering down as a little family of four and enjoying each other's company. Yesterday and this morning involved massive amounts of sorting and furniture moving, while this afternoon will be swimming, barbecue ribs, corn and virgin cocktails.

I hope everyone is enjoying themselves as much as I am.

Happy 4th!

Casey hunkering. And trying to avoid cleaning duty.

This is What My 22 Week Fetus Looks Like. In Case You Were Curious.

S/he was moving and wiggling, so it's not a great face shot.
Except that it is. Because it's my little guppy.

p.p.s. Ever wondered how to make that fantastic Curry Mustard Sauce from Pollo Tropical?

Have I Mentioned That I'm Turning *cough cough* Thirty?

One month from today.

And I'm not happy about it.

At all.

Mostly because I envisioned myself in a drunken stupor on my 30th.

But, clearly, that's not going to happen.

So, instead, I'm going to celebrate with you.

And a contest.

(and probably some Sharps).

So, officially, starting now, this very minute, nay second (!) you have the opportunity to enter to win one of three (3) gift cards to probably my favorite place ever. Target. Yay! On (or about... I make no promises) August 1, 2009, I will randomly pick three winners to win one (1) $20.00 Target gift card, one (1) $10.00 Target gift card and one (1) $5.00 Target gift card. Here's how to enter:

How to Enter:
- Entries will be received in the comments section of this post.
- First entry: leave a comment telling me you want to win! (You MUST leave a valid email address with EACH entry, I will not hunt you down!)

That's a total of FOUR possible entries!!!

Four Weeks and Three Days Left.

Until I'm banned from airline travel by my crazy paranoid fantastically skilled and super nice obstetrician. SO. If you were planning to surprise me with an all expense paid vacation to somewhere fabulous, now would be the time to do it. Please.

Sally and me on the plane to New York City for my last air-travel hoorah before JJ was born.

My super awesome friend, Tricia, and me on the Brooklyn Bridge. About twenty minutes after this picture was taken, we found ourselves locked in the secret room of a really creepy shop in China Town. I may or may not have risked our lives for a little Dooney & Bourke action.
