We're back! Actually I came back on Monday, but we'll pretend that I just got back a second ago and I COULDN'T WAIT to update the site! So much to talk about, no idea where to start. I think I've forgotten how to type.
So much has happened lately, mostly with the baby, some with The Boy so I think bullets might be an appropriate approach here to get you filled in quickly...
- The baby said her first word on Mother's Day!! I will tell you what she says and you can guess in the comments as to what the real word is. It's not too much of a stretch. She says (with extreme enthusiasm and repeatedly all day long) IGHT! IGHT! IGHT! It's her favorite thing in the world.
- Since we are on the subject, LittleJuJu's first word came right before his first birthday when he pointed to the top of the Christmas tree and said," DAR! DAR! DAR!"
- The baby sprouted another tooth while I was away.
- She is officially sleeping through the night since right before we left...she goes down between 7:30 and 8 pm and sleeps until around 7:00 am. I thought the time would never come. Thank Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
- The Boy has been named Student of the Month, complete with a picture in the paper! He didn't get his school finesse from his mother.
- I have my 12 week checkup tomorrow...so looking forward to stepping on the scale...
- Disney World kicked my ass. I felt so bad for all of the parents lugging around babies in strollers, screaming babies, sticky, hot babies, stinky babies, hell even the cute babies. I owe my mother the world for keeping the baby for us. I would not have been able to deal with a baby in Disney.
- I have a gazillion pictures and will upload them soon.
- The baby started to "brush her hair" this morning.
- I won't tell her that she is bald if you don't.
- She is a sippy cup master.
- I like to brag about my kids.
- I'm officially three months pregnant now and all that means really is that I can finally have that cavity filled.
- My husband is hilarious when he is drunk, even though he says he wasn't drunk...because who gets drunk in Disney?
- Peter Pan was one whacked out dude, he reminded me of a lighter skinned (it's a stretch, I know) Michael Jackson. I guess it fits with the whole Never Land thing?
- My cat was amazingly alive when we returned home...how long have you left a cat alone?
- You all missed my birthday...it was April 30th....thanks alot
Next up! Pictures! I will bore you to death with my family vacation pictures! Maybe you will even get a look at the drunky Mr. JuJu!
The spelling is 'aight' and it is clear that your mother overdosed the baby on American Idol. Next she'll be saying "Listen up dawg," "You moved me" and "Bad karaoke."

Not only is my seester not aware that I am not, repeat NOT, an Idol fan, the television didn't even think about being on when BabyJuJu was here.
We had such a wonderful time, I wouldn't trade last week for ANYthing and was thrilled to have her here.
Happy Three-Month-mark :-)
We're so proud of LittleJuJu and know you are too.

Glad you are back...I was wondering what the right age is to take a child to Disney...my daughter is almost 3. Im thinking we should wait...a while!

I had forgotten about Disney and wondered where you went! I just figured the baby was still crying and your eardrums were bleeding and it was too hard to type.

Welcome home and glad you are back! My guess is what she heard her babysitter say during the week since she was off work- "Light, light, light?" She hasn't seen much of that for a while! (the sitter!)

Welcome back!!! I didn't miss your b-day you just had to go read my post to see the wishes! :-p
Congrats to Little JuJu, I didn't make it to see Baby JuJu while she was here, with the puppy who after my third attempt at typing is finally off my lap and not licking my hands and face (just got home from work).
Can't wait to see pictures!
Talk to you soon, Much Love!!!

crap....i totally was thinking Randy Jackson...but damnit...it's totally not funny when someone else beats you to it...

she's trying to say, "aight....Chris totally got robbed, dawg."
