Your Villa or Mine?

is the name of the nail polish I got while on our beach vacation. I love it! It makes me feel like 'Peaches 'n Cream' Barbie, but has a touch of pink to it. Perfect summer color! Don't you think it would be such a fun job to name the nail polish for OPI? They have the neatest names.

I decided to take Hadley with me to get her toes painted too. She is such a girly girl and loved it so much. She stood in my bubbly water the whole time I got my pedicure, and then the lady painted her toes ElePhantastic Pink (seen below). It was such a great little mommy/daughter time. The little ladies painting toes started their Vietnamese chatter, and Hadley got this confused look on her face, and then started laughing. She looked at them and said "What you sayin'?" They laughed too, and told her what they were talking about. I mean, after all of these years of wondering if those ladies were talking about me, and all I had to do was ask them what they were saying?!! We learn so much from our children.

OK, and on a more serious note, Tadd had a patient a few weeks ago, that got the disease, elephantiasis (look at your own risk) from getting a pedicure. She got an infection in her foot from tools that weren't cleaned properly, and it turned into this terrible condition. That may have been my last pedicure...and Hadley's first and last!

How'd they get us with a song like this?

Today, I took Hadley and Eli to the library for story time. Afterwards, while we are doing the craft, they play music. When we finished our craft, there was an upbeat tune on, and Hadley asked me to dance with her. And how could I deny her that? So we danced. As we were leaving, the CD player belts out "Candle on the Water." I died laughing. I know all the moms in there thought I was crazy, but I couldn't help it.

Most of you may think I'm crazy too, but for you Gamma Sigmas, you'll get it. So my question is, how did AGD get such awesome girls like us, playing a song like that at rush (with me singing it no less!!)?

Ciao for now!
And remember, my love for you will always burn.

Things that make you go hmmmm...

Really? Our society is highly medicated enough. Do we really need to take a prescription to grow our lashes?

Don't even know what to say about this one...

And one I don't have a video for...I was at the beach with my family at poolside nursing my baby. I am very good about hiding my goods while nursing, but some people (just knowing there is a baby nursing under that cover) seem very grossed out by it. I had a young woman (who by the way was wearing a bikini, and had NO BUSINESS wearing it), staring at me in disgust while I was nursing. I really wanted to say something, but practiced self-control. What is wrong with people? Why is in not okay to very tastefully nurse your baby in public?

Another reason for me to NOT go to the gym...

CRAZZZEEEEE! What is this world coming too?

Speaking of gym, have ya'll read about Jessica Simpson losing 10 lbs in a week? I mean, if you can lose weight that fast, why get heavy in the first place. Not that she was heavy, but heavier than normal. Whatever...you get my point. Maybe if I eat Chicken of the Sea and cry over Romo all day, I can drop some lbs myself.
