That's really great!

I won't worry as long as you're still eating and staying healthy.

I caught the flu and that was how I shed the pregnancy weight so quickly. I do not recommend that!

Morri- I am so happy that you are doing so well, and that Amelia is finally here! I love seeing your pics on FB- they make me smile.

I came home from a surprise party for our Aunt Audrey today, only to find a surprise for me! (And Tori....) Eric, who had bowed out of attending the party under the pretense (and very predictably) that it was an 'Estrogen Fest', had arranged for the delivery of one 2001 Grand Jeep Cherokee, which we had previously discussed purchasing from my Bro-in-law and sis, but so far as I knew hadn't gone any further.....This was one of the first cars ToriBear has driven, and when Vicki and Dave said they wanted to upgrade to a new version, we threw our names in the hat, but with the tumult of the holidays we (I) hadn't given it much thought. It is in excellent condition, top of the line, low miles, has BUTT WARMERS! and is completely non- Vegan approved. (Leather seats). Awesome rig, and they even bought all new tires for it, knowing that their niece would be eventually driving it once she got her license. We are happy campers, and while I am mystified as to why Eric was so proactive in this purchase, I am choosing to not look the proverbial gift horse in the mouth. (That's his dentist's job....) It's supposed to snow tomorrow- bring it on!

I bet that Jeep is coming in handy with all this snow!

The teenager no longer has braces!! I think he ate himself silly last night with all the treats he could'nt have for the last few years.
It is perfect timing, the winter formal is coming up and he has a date, white tux and a limo! He is one happy teenager, which is rare for a teenager!!

It was ribs, corn on the cob, and popcorn for me.

We are going out for ribs and corn on the cob later in the week, when his favorite place is open. He had popcorn, bit o honey and caramel twix last night. His Ortho Doc gives you a bag with sparkling cider, Tootsie rolls, starburst, bubble gum and popcorn!

Maddie's was gum and laffy taffy. And as much popcorn as she could possibly stuff down.

Ghoulish Delight · 01-17-2012, 11:41 AM

Sparkling cider?

cirquelover · 01-17-2012, 11:55 AM

As a celebration kind of thing, can't exactly give kids champagne. He was stoked because he " finally had his own bottle of sparkling cider!". Kids are strange.

Ah, got it. I thought somehow sparking cider was on his banned foods list and couldn't figure out why.
