So Titan Boy made me drag mini #3 shopping with me yesterday. He is now at the age where he will not ride in a stroller and loves to climb under clothing racks but whatever he's really cute so he can get away with it.
Anyway, we went to Sears to hit the Lands End Sales and while there he grabbed one of their GIANT rubber duckies to drag around with him. This thing is huge, like the size of a small dog or something and costs $20. Of course he begs me to buy it and I say "no" cause I am mean like that plus Christmas is coming , etc. etc.
Well, right in front of the checkout is this poster of Santa announcing when he is coming to Sears. Well, Mini #3 walks right up to the picture and says....
"santa cwaws, duckie duckie, pweez pweez pweez"
So guess what came home wrapped in tissue stapled into a bag so no one could see it?
Welcome Home Giant Sailor Duckie, Welcome Home!

Ok I fell off the deep end...
into the abyss of retail at Christmas! Ugh there are just not enough hours in the day anymore.
Since I last posted I have...worked WAY TOO Much, Read all four books in the Twilight series, seen the movie twice and watched my favorite football team from the sidelines of last weeks game!
No I cannot complain, life is good....just going by way too quickly!
Have lots of stories and adventures to catch you up on but I have to go finish (start) my December marketing calendar (I know it's the 10th already!)

I am on the Bandwagon Now!
So after all the hype I finally broke down and bought the book....yes, Twilight!
OMG! I have never read a book so fast! I ignored many things yesterday to just sit and read. It was amazing! You HAVE to get this book! I cannot wait to read the next three and see the movie!
So what it's a tween book!
I now have Edward Cullen on my mind at ALL TIMES!

I swear I am not vain!
I had the perfect day planned...
it included a 11:45am hair appt to have my hair straightened (I know Hairgirl you didn't want me to do it but I hated my curly hair). The appointment went great until the end when I asked the girl why one side was uneven. Here's how it went from there...
TG: Um, what is up with this side? Why is it so uneven looking?
Stylist: Well it is because it is so thin.
TG: Oh I know my hair has always fine but this seems different.
Stylist: No I said thin, not fine. Your hair is thinning. You need to start using hair growth shampoo etc. to get your hair to stop thinning.
TG: WTF? Seriously (point where I almost start crying)
OK, WTF? My hair is thinning? Like falling out? Now I have to use special shampoos and rub some foam on my hairline? Did I mention I am not even 35?
I am not a vain person. Today I have on NO makeup, sweats and running shoes. But I have to have HAIR! Seriously?
Of course I have made an emergency haircut appt with Hairgirl in an effort to find someway to make it look thicker but now I am all stressed! My great grandma was completely BALD! Her hair slept on the table by her bed next to her teeth. Is that next?
Oh boy! What is Titan Boy gonna think when he wakes up next to a bald girl that used to be his wife?

Here comes crazy...
So we are quickly approaching THAT TIME OF YEAR! You know the one, never enough hours in the day, too many things on the to do list, etc. etc. etc. I am ready this year....I have stocked the freezer with dinners, made the plans for the two Christmas Shop A Thons, remodeled the store....
Oh who am I kidding?
Ready? Me? Yeah that's funny!
Tahoe Girl
P.S. The freezer is stocked but if you don't take dinner out the night before you still have to order takeout!

Busted Again.....
The oldest Mini Tahoe seems to have alittle problem these days...
Trying to BUY stuff on the internet. He gets all the way to the checkout page before he realizes he doesn't have a credit card. Our fabulous nanny caught him again the other day. The first time he got caught did not end well form my check card...

Last but not least...
Ok so I hardly ever talk about the littlest tahoe. I guess he will have to get used to that in life cause there are no pictures of him anywhere, not even the thought of a baby book or anything. The mother guilt is kicking in here. I know I am not the only one here who has more kids than she knows what to do with and has forgotten some details as she gets through but I digress....
The reason I started this post this way is because...
Today my nanny was sick so I got to play "mommy" all afternoon. This started with picking up little stud (littlest tahoe's new nickname) from preschool. After the shocked look on his face wore off in the carpool lane we headed back to my office to see if I could still get some work done. Of course this included a swing thru the golden arches drive thru to grab some lunch. The whole time we were in line he kept saying "growns peeece". After the fifteenth time I finally figured out this meant playground please. Due to the fact that I had tons of work to do I said "no not today but maybe another day". Little stud thinks for a minute and says "cookie then". Umm what? "COOKIE PEEECE" comes quickly from the backseat again. "Oh you want a cookie?" Little stud says "YES!" and I am thinking, ok not too bad compromise.
That was until he insisted on eating the three pack of cookies before the chicken nuggets. And you know what is the worst part? I let him!
I am such a sucker for a cute little blond haired blue eyed boy in a madras carseat that it is embarrassing. I would have argued with Sassy Tahoe until we both were out of breath on this issue but no, Little Stud has mommy right where he wants me!
