Please return to your seat

I haven't flown in a long time, mainly because I can't afford it, but ti's stories like this that make me not want to fly. What is wrong with these people? Have you ever watched that show Airline? I've seen a couple of them and that doesn't make me feel sorry for them or anything. Some of them are funny. What would you have done?

What kind of parent are you?

I was reading the latest issue of Parents and came across an article about parents, "Totally Rude Parents" and it got me to thinking, what kind of parent am I? Am I one of these parents? And if so which one? And is it right of me to decide which one I am?

I know that I'm not the 'competitive' or 'expert' or 'selfish' mom or 'oblivious' one but am I the 'lax' one or maybe 'the wimpy' one? Am I a lax mom because I don't hover over my child at the library/park/gym? I don't think I'm a wimpy mom I do punish her if she's not behaving in public. I tried to get the article to link but no such luck so check it out and get back to me, let me know "how rude are you?"

Mom's night out.....kinda

I've known about this for a couple of weeks but it took everything I had to make myself go out tonight. I should have been happy but the truth of it..... I hated it. I hate going out now. I don't know if it's because I have no friends here or what but this was just torture for me. But it was a little fun. One of the other moms, Danielle, is in a band The Green Machine, and they were playing at Hot Licks tonight. I know D can sing, she sang at my wedding, so I wanted to hear her but there were just to many people there and there was only one other mom there that i knew. I was the first one to get there so of course the room got a little quiet when I walked, the only black person in the entire bar but i put on a brave face and ordered my drink and got a place to sit. After a few minutes M showed and then another and another mom. Moms supporting moms, it's great. Well I am off to bed, it's almost midnight and I'm getting tired I'll tell you more tomorrow.

Gym & the Park

Today was Kiddie Gym and then going to the park afterwards. Savie has hit the point where when we get somewhere, even though we've been there before, she gets shy and wants to leave. She did the same thing this morning when we went to the gym even though her 'boyfriend' PJ was there. So I spent the first 5 minutes trying to get her to stay in the room and the rest of the time trying to get her away from PJ, lol. They are so funny together.

After the gym we went to Saginaw Park. I love this park. It's enclosed with only one gate so I don't have to worry about her running out of the park. A lot of the other moms that didn't come to the gym were at the park, it's a regular playgroup thing. Here's a couple of pictures.



This one is her draging one of the other moms off to help her since I'm not allowed to, lol. A few of the other moms watching their kids and Savie watching them.


Well I finished her robe, mostly, tonight and tried it on her. I still have to figure out how to do the hood for this thing but she seems to like it already.
