I’m raising women here, OK?

friends

When I found out our first baby was a girl, I was thrilled. After almost two years of girl life, I wasn’t ready for that to be over. I silently hoped our second little bundle was a girl as well. Nothing made me happier than finding out I was going to be a girl mom again. Sure, I’ve had scary thoughts of teenage life with these two sweeties, but nothing could damper my happiness of raising girls. WRONG! O how wrong I was!

Who gives a shit about Decorative Pillows?

I just need to vent about a few things really quick. I’m sure some of you guys can relate and some of you have much bigger problems, so my apologies in advance.

-First of all, my almost 4-year-old has been in pre-school for a full month now. That means for an entire month at least one person in my house has been sick at all times. There has yet to be one day when I don’t get snot smeared on my shirt.

when I dip, you dip, we dip

OK, anyone who didn’t get my reference to “da dip” by Freak Nasty, is missing a really good play on words.

Anyways, that’s irrelevant and so is Freak Nasty.

As far appetizers or snacks go, I’m obsessed with dips! These are a few of my absolute favs. They are easy, quick and always a WIN.
