My Boys

Just hanging out at Macaroni Grill.
Now where's my food?

A Little Tape Will Do It

I was leaving work today and noticed that someone was a proud owner of a new windshield. Not sure that it should be installed with tape though.

The Luck Of The Irish

And the gaudy green outfit required to prove your Irish heritage.
Scary Cat gets into the spirit of St. Patty's Day. Nice boa...

Feet Don't Fail Me

Went out for some girl time and a good pedicure today with Shelly. It was so much fun. And nothing beats a glass of wine, a massage chair and someone rubbing your feet. I even opted for a little design on my big toes.
Now, when is it going to get warm enough to wear sandals again.

Too Important for Traffic

This jerk thought he was too good to sit in the 'traffic'. He kept weaving onto the shoulder so he could see just how long the line was in front of him.
And the worst part, one of his tires was pretty low but just wouldn't blow. Oh well, maybe next time.

What Is This?

Seriously - what is all this and what does it do?

They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To

Remember when American automakers built cars and trucks that would last more than 10 yrs? Ones that were built strong (read - don't crumble in a fender bender), could move fast (read - had big powerful engines) and didn't lose their market share to foreign cars. I saw a few today.
And this one appears to have been pimped out.

Cool Sammy

No explanation needed:

A Dunk and a Smile

I am desperately trying to get Sam hooked on the goods like his mom. I think I have turned him into an official Oreo cookie lover. Check it out....here's the dunk
and here's the proof...

Another Snow!

We actually saw snow again in Raleigh this year. Since Sam is feeling better, we decided to get out and play a little. Here is Sam's first snowman
He's Sammy sized
And here is where Sam just couldn't contain himself any longer...I call it 'The Demolition'
Who me? That's how you do it mommy.
And here is one of the cars that shouldn't have been driving in the tiny amount of snow we received.

Just Because She's A Woman...

Doesn't mean she's the best person for the job.
And this is another reason I don't put political bumper stickers on my car - you need to remove before December.

This Was Approved?

I noticed this car in the parking lot of my company this week. I'm still amazed that you can have 'ass' on your license plate.

What A Woman

I stopped by the grocery store on my way to work this morning and saw a woman with an obviously higher than normal sense of security with herself. I don't know if I would ever feel comfortable going to the store in my robe...especially when it's 40 degrees outside.
And she obviously has a pretty good sense of humor.
Goofy Krap?

Too Many SWOs

This guy seems to love those SWOs. I guess some bandwagons are hard to resist.

My Dogs

I was driving home from work today when I saw this truck. 'Protect Your Dogs' ... I agree.

Jump Around

Sam has never been a fan of the moon bounce houses. He was a little slow in even learning how to jump. But we went to a birthday party this weekend at Jumping Beans at The Factory in Wake Forest and he did fantastic. The only mishap was when mommy was in there with him - and he slipped and hit his head on mommy's knee. After a brief bout of crying, he told mommy that he was ready to go back in but that mommy had to stay out!
He likes to do the stunt man fall.
That blur on the left is Kaela. When Nana asked Sam if he had a girlfriend in his class his reply was, 'Actually, I think that would be Kaela.' He has good taste!
And here he is venturing through the inflatable towers. The big kid in the back was nice enough to help Sam up the steps so he could go down that big blue slide a few times. What a sweetheart! I'm so proud of him!

Nana Time

For Valentine's Day my wonderful husband had my mother come up and babysit Sam so we could have a real date. This was our first real date in over 3 years - it was much needed! Here is Sam and Nana playing at lunch the next day.
Now that we've gotten a taste of freedom again - we'll be bugging Nana more often!

Scary Cat - Sending Kisses

Happy Valentine's Day from Scary Cat.
Is scary cat trying to be trashy or slutty? I can't decide.

Hockey Sucks

I finally got to go on a company outing this week. Well actually, my company didn't pay for anything - the contractors we hire took us out to a Hurricanes hockey game. Our seats were great!
But the game was a real stinker. 0 goals and 0 fights. I'm still not a hockey fan.The final score was Carolina 0, Florida 5.

Bitter Feminist?

This is how Feminists get a bad rep. All of these bumper stickers were on the same dirty car.
This one I did find a bit humorous though - at least she's got a sense of humor somewhere in all there.

Stickers From Nana

Sam received a Valentine's Day card in the mail today from his Nana. It was a Spongebob card with a sheet of stickers. This is how much he liked it.

Where There's Smoke, There's Burning Books

Something funny was going down at the used bookstore in our neighborhood. We like this store and were happy to see that it wasn't serious.

More Time With My Boys

Here are my boys at the Macaroni Grill - looking cute and hungry!

License Plates

Here are a few that I've seen recently...
The Lorax? The Dr. Seuss book? Really?
And someone doesn't know how to spell 'cycle'...I know the 'e' is silent, but it's still there.

Mr Handsome

He loves the Cars movie - especially Lightning McQueen.

A Day At The NC Zoo

The weather has been really nice all week - 60s and low 70s. So instead of laying around for yet another lazy Sunday, we decided to take a trip to the NC Zoo. It's only about 1.5 hrs away and won't be crowded in February. The animals were all out since the weather was so nice and we were able to get some good exercise. Here's Sam waiting for the Tram.
And here he is goofing around with Dad at lunch. Aren't they cute?

Sharing With Daddy

Sam is getting better with sharing. He even shared his food with Daddy today.





Sharing with daddy is fun!
