Maybe that’s why my son’s physical therapist couldn’t stop staring at me this morning.
Thank God I have a cardigan to save me from any further embarrassment.
ladyofleisuredc asked: Can I send you a picture of me to use with the fat app? I NEED the motivation! I'll stick it on my fridge, in my car, in my file folder, heck, I'll even make it my screen saver! Let me know. I'm at ladyofleiduredc at gmail dot com
Apparently this is what I would look like if I...
If this isn’t motivation to eat well, I don’t know what is.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FAVORITE SISTER!!!
Hope you have the most amazing year!
I love you!
Came home today to find my living room looking...
I know that this scene would freak out a lot of people.
But I love coming home and finding my house like this.
Because it means that my kids were playing hard. And having fun.
I could care less about the mess. (It only takes a half an hour to clean up.)
I care about the fun that was had.

How amazing is this?
This gave me chills. Do you think she knew from the second he started dancing that this was it? Also, how much do I love the Love Actually-like signage? (Enough to even overlook the grammatical error!)

What the heck did people do at work before the internet?!?!

Perhaps she’ll stop wearing those ridiculous shoes now.

She drives me freaking crazy. Put some goddamn pants on already.

Dear ESPN,
Thank you for streaming today’s game live so I can watch it at my desk instead of getting any work done.
I love you.
Sincere thanks for making today much better,

A Conversation Regarding Baby Names
Me: What do you think of Elle? It's cute, I like it.
Husband: ffffffffffffffffffffffffff.
Me: What?
Husband: fffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
Me: WHAT?!
Husband: Say it together.
Me: Elle. ffffffffffffffffffffffffff.
Husband: That's all I can think of.
Me: Oh my God. This is going to be so hard.

y’all are all excited about 30% off summer sale. yes, that’s good, but listen closely, because i’m going to tell you a tale of a magical place nestled in the mountains of western north carolina called “the j.crew clearance store.”
it is a small (but mighty) retail store attached to a distribution…

Fear
Last night at dinner my son asked what “kidnap” meant.
My husband did a really good job of explaining it in a not so scary way.
And then we used the opportunity to discuss with our son what he should do if a stranger ever tries to convince him to follow them or forces him to go with them.
I’ve got to say, my son really paid attention. I think in general he gets the concept. ...
“If you’re not behind me supporting me, then you’re just in my way.”
– The husband’s new motto
He's even funny when he's in pain
Husband: Sarah, I can't take it anymore. I am in so much pain. Every single day with this headache.
Me: I'll call a doctor on Monday. What kind of doctor do you think you should see? An allergist? A neurologist? An eye doctor?
Husband: Dr. Kevorkian.
“Daddy, want to try the pea soup? Not “pee” like you do in the...”
– the son, last night while cooking imaginary food
Fact:
I almost always have to be touching my husband.
When he’s nearby, it’s like a magnet. I need some part of my body to be in contact with his.
We almost never sit apart on the couch. We’re always right next to each other, with one of our limbs draped over the other.
We love a big bed. But in reality we really probably could make do with a twin since we sleep right next to...
A conversation with the 4 year old about not...
Husband: You don't want to call people names.
Son: Why?
Me: Well, because it can hurt people's feelings, sweetie. And it's not nice and can make people sad.
Husband: We want to be nice to everyone.
Son: And you don't want to say shit. You don't want to say that.
Currently dreaming of...
1) My couch
2) sweatpants with a drawstring waistband
3) a good book
4) a Friendly’s wattamellon roll
5) frozen yogurt
6) sushi
7) lit candles

Typical
Me (pointing at neighbor walking his dog): That guy is always walking his dog. Every time I see him he's walking the dog. And not just a quick trip outside to pee. Real legit walks. If I get reincarnated I want to come back as that guy's dog.
Husband: If I get reincarnated I want to come back as a lady's bicycle seat.

The Conversation that Took Place During the RHONY...
Husband (points to TV): She's crazy. [referring to Kelly]
Me: I know.
Husband: No, really crazy.
Me: I know.
Husband: What's the word for how crazy she is? You know, when someone legitimately has mental issues?
Me: You mean "that bitch is so nuts she needs to be on meds ASAP because she's delusional and lives in her own bizarre universe and can't articulate a single thought that makes any sense" crazy?
Husband: Not really what I was going for, but yeah.
My son has a nickname for his sister that he’s the only one who uses. (Ok, it’s really just a super short version of her name, but she has a nickname that everyone else calls her and he still uses his own version).
Every time I hear him refer to her using that name, I literally think my heart might explode out of my chest and I just want to squeeze him so hard that I know I would...
What? It's not too early to be thinking about...
I have decided that I will be getting myself my kids an iPad for Christmas this year.
Hope they like it!
My Husband thinks Bethenny looks like Quagmire.
You know what Sucks?
Spending all day thinking it’s Thursday and then realizing it’s only Wednesday.
