Yesterday was a HELL day...

LDG was SUPER bitchy..... I mean super and just restless just like dogs before a big earthquake hits...Could have to do with the lovely back molars that are poking through her lovely gums...Ouch. She then decided to take my adult size sippy cup...yes I said sippy cup {I told you I am super clumsy and with LDG cruising all over the house I need to make sure that my liquids are covered and not in a regular glass}. LDG decided to figure out how to take the top off and proceeded to dump all 16 ounces of green tea all over the living room floor {TG for hardwood} I thought what more could happen today...before I had a minute to get that thought out of my head.....I hear what I am not hearing when you have a toddler running around the house.....were their is SILENCE their is T.R.O.U.B.L.E! AND this was the cherry on top of the sundae of crap day I had....LDG decided she was going to be play dive bomb with my 5 month new blackberry -  in the dogs water bowls {I had just replaced that blackberry when I had dropped it in the water while I was getting mani/pedi....Yep siree BOB! I basically wanted to take my SUV and drive it off the Golden Gate Bridge.  I snapped and I completely lost it with her.
*it did not help the situation that while she was dunking my phone she was laughing thinking it was soooo funny!
It was her first time out/punishment whatever you like to call it.  I needed to teach her that what she did was not cool. Of course after I had a few minutes to calm down I felt guilty and realized that she probably had no idea what she had done.  I need to understand that she is just a baby and she is still trying to figure out what is wrong and right in this big bad world. Once again that damn thing called  patience ...Man I really do need to work on that.

For now I will take each event day by day...It is all worth it in the end when you get that big ol smile and that loving hug...

RIP my lovely blackberry you will be missed

My LDG's style.....

I am going to try something different in the next few days. Maybe.... because..... YES I am that bored right now! Or I just miss the creativity and juice the fashion industry used to give me. I might be in a rutty rut....Help!

LDG is getting older and she has been napping up a storm after our morning activities so I have a few hours in the day were there is so much friggin reality TV you can watch before your brain grasps those few little brain cells left.  This is after I have played with the dogs, cleaned, laundry.... you get the drift.
When I am out and about with my little one I get comments on her clothes and over all style on a daily basis. It could be a piece of clothing, shoes or the over all "look.  Let me tell you I troll stores, websites and speciality outlets and take some time in merchandising my daughters closet and clothes. It is funny but when their born you do not know what type of "style" your going to direct them too or what type of  clothing your little one will eventually choose.  There was allot of pink in the beginning, because quite frankly their is not much else out there. And yes I have checked,  that is unless you want the following "looks".

• a casting extra for the Jerseyliciouse, RHONJ and Jersey Shore
• I am all for black but if I see one more black skull onesie, t shirt ect... I am going to scream
• Peptobismol pink fluffy things with stupid slogans "I am princess in training". Blah Blah
• Juicy Couture Ohhh so not

I want a cool laid back SF style with a little high fashion mixed in that is not based on the "typical" four season palette - is that too much to ask for????
**We live in micro climate which means everyday we have a toss up of weather - it could be warm one day and butt freezing the next. I would love to find a clothing manufacturer that caters to this weather - it is hard to dress your kid when you go out shopping for them and all we have to choose from(right now) is shorts and and sundresses!
 Mmmm....

All of the outfits that will be featured are  LDG her "out and about wardrobe" she has her play clothes for inside the casa. Those are for thrashing and riding the dogs with...lol

If you like what you see let me know and I will let you know were I bought the pieces....
Cheers!

Weeeeeerrrreeeee back.....

Hello all!!!!
I have not posted in the last few days but we were on a mini vacation in Cabo San Lucas for some fun in the sun and I truly believe when you are on vacation you are on vacation from most of the electronic devices we have allowed to take over our lives. I am totally guilty of this!
I mean a few years ago if you could not get hold of anyone via the regular ol' land line telephone you were shit out of luck! I also asked that during this trip my hubby would control the many times he checked his blackberry for work. I in turn was going to promise not to check my FB page every 1/2 hour and not blog. Vacation time is vacation time.

All in all a pretty fabu time. I would have liked to have stayed a few more days just when I was beginning to relax it was time to get up and go. Also to all mommies out there, you truly never really relax when you have a 16 month yr. old toddler walking around the pool at record speeds. My hubby and I were reminiscing to when we could just lounge around the pool for hours drinking frothy fruit drinks laced with alcohol! I could get through up teen magazines and books galore in one week trip...I am a fast reader....like super fast so I can devour a book in a day.....Now I am lucky to get through a few chapters. Ah the joys of parenthood.

The resort was beautiful and relaxing just having the ocean view from our mini villa was a relaxing start to our day. We spent most of the time hanging out by the pool chasing LDG around. LDG had a great time and it was nice just to see her laugh and play. Don't get me wrong it was not all flowers and ponies. She pulled a couple of attitudes while we were there but she is getting to that "age" were she is beginning to test us. So far we have been able to nip it in the bud, HOWEVER when she knows she is out and about she tend to pull this crap like most toddlers she just got her walking freedom so she wants to be independent...already...MAWAHHHHH!
It also took me forever to put her to sleep on the flight back but when you have a child who is so on schedule like my daughter a slight change will put her over the edge. But I will say this we have a pretty awesome little girl.

Now that we are back home it is time to get back on track. We got back on Saturday and Sunday was a hang out lazy kind of day. I did about 5 loads of laundry from the trip, got the dry cleaning ready to go, went to do a little grocery shopping since we cleared the fridge before we left, got the dogs back from my dad's house - they go through a little depression when they get back -my dad has a huge backyard that they love to run around in plus my dad has a dog and all three of them run a muck when they are together.
I know they missed us it just takes a couple of days for them to "snap out of it". But I can tell you this when they get back from my dad's doggie boot camp they are exhausted.

Got some healthy food shoved down LDG's throat, I believe she missed her veggies which were lagging on the resorts menu. Grilled some salmon for her last night and she gobbled it up with fresh green beans. Mmmmm....
Will be working out for the first time in a week tomorrow and I am looking forward to it! Planning healthy, healthy menu for the next 2 weeks. When you go on vacation,  your wall tends to be down with making healthy food choices, even though I must say we were pretty good this trip....No fruity drinks with tons of sugar on my part, I primarily stuck to white wine and it was not much compared to past trips...lol

I am truly relaxed and ready for the very busy June ahead....Hubby and I actually looked up Disney Cruise Trips last night......I know I know I am kinda anti Disney but what I am to do the kid likes it.....and it looks like it really caters to parents while the kiddies are on their own level going nutty with fun....Who knows might just work.....Off to get ready to get my hair done which is needed after the many hours spent in the pool water. 

Have a great day and super smooches!!!!
Pics to follow but I thought you would enjoy the one below.....

Looks like someone did not want the trip to end. LDG climbed in the
suitcase while I was unpacking
