You know, it’s really hard to write a blog post with your jaw in what seems like permanent DROP mode from watching Heidi Montag show her new cheeks, eyebrows, lips, nose, chin, breasts, butt, BACK (etc.) to her mom for the first time — in tonight’s season’s premier of The Hills (hollahhh!). Sad sad sad. Seriously, it’s really, really sad what’s happening there. I don’t know what I’d do if my little Monkey changed this beautiful face that way….
My jaw is also a little dropped right now because I’m experiencing some post-tooth-surgery infection, and I’m mildly allergic to the meds. SO, I’m cutting this post short in favour of an early-ish bedtime. In the meantime, I’ll give you a little sense of what’s going on around here — the CRAZINESS — by sharing a wee “conversation” the monkey and I had in bed the other day:
Mama, let’s talk about stuff, o’right? ….So things are good, like, you know with me! We’re getting a new dog, I’m getting my room painted, it’s gonna be pink, Rascal’s getting a new crib, we’re getting new blinds……
Oy! More on all of that, and Josh’s new job — working at home! — later.
Love!

(By the way, many thanks to Lauren from SCKC Clothing — the amazing new kids clothing store at Yonge and Eglinton (Toronto) — for gifting us with the insanely adorable outfit above. The Monkey was the TALK of her classroom in this totally sweet ensemble, not least because her slacker mom lets her go out in summer clothes all year long. Check Sweetspot.ca for my review of the store, coming soon….)

WOW! The Monkey is sooooooooo cute and that outfit is ADORABALE! Gah! I really miss Yonge and Eg (that was my subway station for a while when I lived in T.O.). *sniff* *sniff* I miss the shopping and restaurants…
P.S. You look gorgeous, btw! Sorry to hear about the post-tooth surgery infection
If it’s any consolation, you’re stunning either way!

Hope your infection clears up.

Poor you
I suffered for two weeks after I had two molars removed in January. All is well now. I hope it gets better for you soon.

Oh, no, hon, I hope you’re better soon. Be sure to take your probiotics. They’ll help. And OMG, I just want to squish Monkey! Simply adorable.
Hugs! xoxo
