Poor Posh


How many of you watched Barbara Walters Special the other night on the 10 Most Fascinating People of 2007? Well, I watched the part where she interviewed David and Victoria (aka Posh Spice) Beckham. I'm not sure why they are so fascinating, but she didn't ask me. Barbara was asking Victoria about all the comments made regarding her weight. She is very tiny. She replied that she was extremely careful about what she ate. Barbara asked her if she would ever eat a cookie or piece of chocolate cake and she said "oh no, never." Like it was the dumbest question ever. Well, that finally explains why she never smiles. The poor girl never eats chocolate. This is a girl that has obviously never had a piece of my mother-in-law's Charlotte's cake still warm from the oven. It just spoke volumes to me. At the end of my life I will be glad to be able to say I ate lots of chocolate cake and I was happy about it. From my humble opinion, it looks like the only thing fascinating about Posh is that she is married to David Beckham.

M & M's and Penguins

Well, I realized yesterday afternoon that I have lost total control of my house and my children!This sounds bad, but it is true. With our sickness and JW being in the depths of exams, it is not hard to do. I found Ryan covered head to toe in chocolate from eating so many M & M's. He was running around getting chocolate everywhere because he was having some kind of spasm from too much chocolate and/or sugar! He was very funny! I wish I had snapped a picture of him. But, I did manage to snap this picture of them in their penguin pajamas. I had been looking for some matching penguin pajamas and finally found some last weekend at the outlets.

I guess in 20 years I will look back on times like this and just laugh. Hopefully my boys will not care that they had to live in a house where you can't even find a path to walk because there are too many books and Little People in the way. Hopefully they will just remember that they had fun and had a Mom who let them eat too many red and green M & M's at Christmas.
