Introducing my little niece Raelyn.






The little pumpkin kept stretching out when I was holding her. So it barely looks like I am holding on to her. She is sound asleep!

martinis, pink penis pinata, vinyl NYPD cop uniform and toothless bouncers

In Chicago this weekend, we toasted/roasted one of my best friends in her last night out as a single girl. 25 people showered her with many wondeful gifts as we ate and drank champagne outside near the Chicago River.



Later that night we met up at a Martini Bar and the Bachelorette festivities began. Champagne and cosmos flowed...again We played the mystery panty game which we coined "panty dropper" in honor of the infamous drinks her husband-to-be created for his soon to be wife.


We had a trolley filled with penis balloons and a penis pinata. The bachelorette had to take a wack at the pinata after we roasted her on her past boy encounters.



Then what came to be the hit present of the night--a vinyl NYPD cop uniform. CA proudly put on that uniform and struted her stuff. Repeatedly.



Next on the bachelorette agenda was a country western line dancing bar. However, the country western bar wanted nothing to do with our bachelorette cuteness. We were turned away by two toothless bouncers. None of us could speak. We were in shock. However that did not stop our determination to find another location to finish out the night.

The bachelorette had a fun night--she was in rare form and took everything with class and grace. She gave us many laughs as we shared her bachelorette memories. Today she is a little hung over as she tried to recount the night festivities.

pictures to come...i promise

Eli's lunch

this is what my husband packed for his lunch tomorrow:

1) Turkey and cheese/hummus sandwich
2) Big slice of leftover lasgana
3) left over breast of grilled chicken
4) plum
5) rest of the grapes
6) carrots
7) almonds
8) bbq sunflower seeds

as he read this list to me, he said if I am still hungry..I quickly interrupted him to say "you have a tapeworm". he just looked at me and replied..."punk"

btw: this lunch is justified b/c he works a double tomorrow....

Is this happening to anyone else

For some reason blogger keeps freezing my computer and when I click to read blogs, the pages are not downloading. Is it just me?
