I am sooooo sad!

A very unfortunate event happened today. Even as I write about it, my heart feels heavy. This morning Jane was acting perfectly normal when all of a sudden, she proceeded to throw up all over my iphone. Yes, you read correctly - MY IPHONE!!! Okay, before I got my iphone, I was not one to really go ga ga over a cell phone. I mean, I never bothered entering in phone numbers or trying to text (okay, so I am still not great at that one) but once I got this phone, I LOVED it. I used it all the time - it was my best friend at the gym as I could work out while listening to Pandora (best thing ever on the web). Tonight, I feel empty. How will I function without my favorite tech tool in the world?! I know, I know, I sound like a total snob but I really am going to miss it. Jane, I love you so much but honestly, I was a little sad, I mean come on, did you have to throw up all down the front of my jacket and into my pocket where my phone was? Ohhhhhh, woe is me...... (good thing she is just so irrestiably cute - I couldn't stay mad at her for long)

Can I make it in time?

So today I am packing up like a crazy woman. I am trying to get ready for our trip to Washington D.C. I am now feeling so guilty about living my two little princesses. What should I do? I can't take Audrey, it is simply too late to buy her a ticket but my question now is should I take Jane? I have asked a few people what I should do and they have said leave her - including my sister. She was so lovely and willing to watch my children for a night last week and she says Jane is totally easy and I should do it.

I still have a few hours to make my final decision so I guess we will wait and see what happens. . . (I know, riveting drama - stay tuned!)

Alert! Alert! There is a diva in the house!


So tonight as I was putting Jackson and Audrey to bed, I asked who wanted to say their prayers first. Audrey replied "Me! me! me! me! me! ... hey, I like that! I want my name to be meme now. Mom, will you call me meme?" In my head, I am thinking 'isn't that Mariah Carey's nickname?' Then I look back at Audrey and notice she has a fresh coat of shimmery lip gloss on her lips (this is a very important night time ritual and one that must not be skipped). Oh dear, DIVA alert! After her prayers, she promptly reminded me that I did not paint her fingernails red like a cherry as I had promised I would do today. Now I get to sit with that little nugget of guilt the rest of the evening.

All righty! I am really going to do this now- I am really going to try blogging! I am so bad at this. I think I have now set up three different blogs somewhere on cyberspace (do they even call it that still?) Hopefully I can follow through with this! It is now 12:45 in the morning. I have been up working on my niece's prom dress. I hope it turns out. We are trading services. I make her dress, she'll cut and color my hair. Lets just hope she likes the dress. If you see me in a few weeks and my hair is hideous, well then I guess we know how she liked the dress.

Ugg - I feel another zit coming on. I think it must be all the caffeine and chocolate I have been eating lately so I can feel energized during these late night sewing sessions. Who knew that at age 32 I would still be enjoying acne? Hey, lets look at the bright side - at least I still feel young! (If you never got zits as a teenager, well then I just have to hate you)
