beach break

The beach has always been a quick cure for the crankies...which we have plenty of these days...


Bristel is such a poser!



but when you're this cute I suppose it's okay to flaunt it?

I am SO lovin' the monkey leash!





The Amazing Seaweed Girl!



she's cute AND edible! Right Trevy?



When all was said and done...

the beach was definately what we needed...



for a cranky break!

How can you sit there and let that wild monkey attack your baby? tee hee

We have one too, only ours is a bear. It will be Kaylee's turn to use it soon. We still have Javi's wrist leash. He was a wonderer. I haven't needed it for almost two years now. He's gotten pretty good about staying close by. I am a firm believer in them. I'm glad they came out with a cute version with the animals. I always got dirty looks with Javi's plain one. Hey, it's better than loosing your kid!

Wow, your beach is beautiful! I agree that no one can have the crankies when you are at the beach...it's absolutely impossible. You are going to have to watch out for Bristel as she gets older!! With those big eyes....and dimples...that is trouble!!! :ha ha ha: It's so funny that you have a monkey leash...we saw a kid at the aquarium this summer flipping out in one, and we are so mean...we just stood there laughing about the leash. Although I may end up eating my words b/c my little monkey may be getting one too! Glad that you all had such a great day!

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

I sure hope...

they grow back curly! Saw the "unknown" flashing on the face of my cell phone and knew who it was. Who it had to be. Dr. Fellow. My eyes met Grams' and I nodded. Grams has a pool, see. For super hot days like today. We're also having a septic installed. Which meant no water or facilities at my place. But those weren't really the reasons I was there. Close to mom. The purple ringing thing in my hand was. Only I wasn't prepared for it to be ringing SO darn soon. Shortly after lunch instead of dinner! I swallowed. Took a deep breath. And clicked connect. Dr. Fellow has a very nice phone tone. Clear. Hint of compassion. If only a stitch of humor were added...it'd be heavenly. But there was no humor. Just business. He's very direct. I'm learning that about him. Which explains his short hello. Followed by immediately pushing into the news. Being that it was a unanimous consensus. The entire surgical committee feels Trevor is a good candidate. And then p...

it ain't sexy livin' on an island...

Especially when you have to cross bridges to get ANYWHERE. Very LARGE bridges. The crests of which I inevitably get stuck at. Speaking of...why is it that at the tippity tops of our bridges...the railings always open up? To reveal an eagle's eye view of the white capped depths below? I HATE that. And sure enough...in route to Dr. Pedi yesterday...they must have seen me coming cause traffic ground to a halt at the top of the Mt. Hope Bridge. Where I felt less than Hope-ish. My palms gushing my nerves onto the steering wheel for a good 15 (felt like forever) minutes. Not just things medical bring out my cowardly lion. Heights do too! Anyway... Grabbed an iced coffee and chocolate cream filled to settle my nerves on the way. And we arrived on time...in one piece. Of course. Dr. Sick-Visit-Pedi breezed in chart in hand. Glanced down. Then at Trevy. Then said... "He has a history of Infantile Spasms?" Surprise and speculation in her voice. We get that a lot. It...
