Um, Will You Go With Me?

]]> Like to the store?

My 10 year old had her first exposure to dating, that is if you discount tripping a boy on a field trip to get your lips on his cheek, which I do. Last week, she came to me upset because I had driven her to school that morning instead of letting her ride the bus. Apparently, the boy she has had a crush on all year was planning to “ask her out” that morning but since her atrocious mother made her take alternate transportation, she missed out. Needless to say, she was more than a little excited to get on the bus the following day.

All day memories of my own 5th grade antics haunted me. I remembered how the girls and boys in my school would “go together” and break up like they changed favorite ice cream flavors. It was high drama for sure and as I recall it felt so real at the time. In addition, I remembered that we kissed those boys after school…

Was my baby about to go there? Hold me.

When I picked my daughter up I asked how it went and she just shook her head.

“What do you mean, no?”
“We talked about it and decided to just be friends.”

While this was more than fine with me, I was curious about the change in momentum.

“Was this your idea?”
“No, we both think that since we are such good friends and going to the same middle school next year that we don’t want things to be weird between us.”
“Oh, right, well, sure, yeah, that’s very mature of you both.”

Wow. I was speechless. How can my daughter as well as the boy she crushes on be so mature?

That remains a mystery however my hope for her childlike heart restored itself when she laid some news on me in the car this morning,

“Oh, I don’t like him anymore, Mom. I like a new boy not and I’m NOT telling you who it is…”

And yes, I am still scared.

Oh Yes, It Was Ladies Night

]]>
What happens when you get ten classy ladies and two sweet babies together for a dinner party?

sangria

Delicious food, wonderful conversation, beautifully wrapped gifts and LOTS of baby squeezing.

But it’s what happens after the young ones are soundly asleep that makes it memorable.

Break dancing.

Truth or Dare.

Some were too scared for dares.

Others weren’t and will be receiving an apology note from me.
(How did I know she would actually run around the house like that?)

My mother gave an extra-truthy answer.

“I haven’t done acid…yet.”

There were 10 pounds of sangria soaked fruit pieces that were devoured as the night progressed – a process that was helped by the game “You have to eat a piece of fruit every time you say someone’s name.”

Actual amount of fruit not shown here.

And the next morning, more baby pictures…and lots of coffee.

Winter Birthday Dinner Party – Now With Sangria!

]]> We had such a great time last year that tomorrow we are once again celebrating all of the winter birthdays with a Girl’s Night Dinner Party & Sleepover. This year, I have expanded the guest list to include my sweet, soon-to-be cousin in law and my mother’s twin sister, my aunt.

To read further my thoughts on the subject, click here: Having a Mom With a Twin Can Make For Awkward Birthdays .

If you’re in the neighborhood, feel free to stop by for a drink. The party is guaranteed to be a hoot.

Me, Mom & My Sisters

PS- I am probably going to wear that same top tomorrow night so if/when you see the pictures don’t be all like, “OMG, is that the only cute top she has?”
PSS- My mother is bringing homemade sangria…hold me.
