NaBloPoMo Day 11: Tune in for bug watch 2009

Yep, still in a tizzy about lice over here. I took down T's twists today, picked through her hair like a little monkey, applied some jojoba oil and re-twisted. So far, so good. I really am hoping that all of the moisturizers and what-not I use on her will make her hair undesirable to the little bastards.
My lovely cousin swung a magnifying glass by today so I could bring my obsession to the next level.

*sigh*

NaBloPoMo Day 10: My worst fear!

I have a serious bug issue. Ick. I'm itchy just thinking about bugs so imagine my dismay when I walked into school today and there was a letter posted. A letter stating that head lice had been found...in T's classroom.
*shudder*
I freaked.
We raced home, stopping at Target for "supplies" just in case, and I proceeded the dreaded head check. It is not easy on a kid with thick hair who won't sit still, believe me.
I found nothing but we did a good hair washing and another serious check while putting her hair in twists. Oh, and I seriously washed practically everything I own in hot water. Even Coco got a bath last night ;)
Here I am, in total flip out mode but trying not to let on to T that I'm in total flip out mode.
Not an easy task.

NaBloPoMo Day 9: Is it only day 9? Oy vey!

Got up early, was almost late for work because T has decided that she can dress herself...which she can..sort of....if she has an abundance of time and it doesn't matter if her underpants are on backwards & inside out.....

Narrowly made it on time. Spent the day with this gal again



Picked up T from school and went to the mall to grab a quick dinner at Noodles & Co-I am addicted to their buttered noodles with Parmesan crusted chicken. Yes, I know I could make those at home for like, a dollar but they woulddnt be as yummy. Also swung by Sephora to purchase a starter kit of Bare Minerals because, let's face it, I'm over 30 and should probably start wearing some makeup.
Then it was off to an open house at T's school. Ryan met us there (he doesn't know about my expensive purchase at Sephora...shhhhh, don't tell!) It was nice for him to actually see her school since he hasn't had a chance to visit yet with all of his work travels. We had fun, T had fun, it was nice to hear about what is in store for this year.
Whew!
Long day!
G'nite!

NaBloPoMo Day 8: America's Next Top Model

Well...ok, not really. We finally took T to have professional photos taken. Yeah, I know. I'm a bad mom. She's only been home for what? Just over 2 years and we are finally getting around to having photos taken? Time just seemed to slip right by so fast and before I knew it she wasn't a baby anymore.
Anyway, we went to the picture people and they did a FANTASTIC job! I love the way they turned out! I will post 'em as soon as I can.

Here she is afterwards....all hopped up on fruit snacks.
