Fun in the sun!

DS is in this week's Baby Zone photo contest. It has been quite awhile since I have entered any of my pictures (or for that matter, since I have taken any fantastic pictures, ugh, I keep promising myself to get out and photograph more!) If you have the time, please check it out HERE! You can vote once a day for the entire week. Thanks in advance!

A coffee break

I still have a love affair with coffee. You would have thought pregnancy and nursing would be enough to keep me away from my daily cup of java but it doesn't. Coffee house coffee is even better but I don't always like to pay for it (for what ever reason coffee in a cardboard cup with a plastic lid always seems to taste better, why is that?).

Lucky me, I have been able to enjoy my last few trips to Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf absolutely FREE. Thanks to the below picture. I won 3rd place in the Irvine World News section of the Orange County Register & they sent me a gift card to my favorite local Coffee shop.

That would be "a Regular flavored coffee, double cup, no sleeve, please!". (a Regular would be a Grande to you Starbucks folks!)

I share, Daddy!

My DS is at the age where we are really trying to teach him about good manners. We are often reminding him about the big three (1) say please, (2) say thank you, (3) and share! He actually has been doing quite well with all 3 of them, especially for an active 22 month old boy.

Here is a picture of him sharing a cookie with Daddy at the wonderful St. Regis tree lighting ceremony after Thanksgiving (in Laguna Beach, CA).

Reader's Digest thought it was worthy of their top 10 Thanksgiving pictures and if you agree CLICK HERE to see and vote! (& boy, wouldn't a $100 come in handy during this holiday season!!!) :)

Halloween ... again!

My Darling Son (DS) is in the final November's photo contest on BabyZone.com. Please check it out and we thank you in advance for any votes (wink wink)!

Happy Friday, hope it is "GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"eat!!!

LINK HERE to vote!!! You can vote once a day, every day, for the next 3 days (until December 3rd).
