About this blog

If you're looking for me to brag about how cute my kids are (which they are) or talk about how much weight I did or didn't lose this week, you are in the wrong place! I have a Facebook account for that. This blog is about the blunt truths of parenting, tips and tricks of the trade, some addicting mommy junk and all the other disgusting hilarity that ensues when you have kids...especially two kids only 12 months apart like myself.

Santa 2011 (and Gracey Lou Designs)

Like most people, I took the kids to see Santa. I knew Boo would be a problem when he told me he wanted to stay home.

We went to my in-laws gym to meet the old man and snap some of our own pics for free (love me some free). Both kids were very excited.

We went upstairs and Bubbi ran to give Santa the cookie we made him earlier that day (and totally tripped and ate sh*t as well as dropped the cookie smack on the floor). Santa accepted it as his helper rushed over to free his hands from the, um, delicious homemade treat. I placed her on his lap and she was beside herself like she had just met her teen idol.




THEN he sang her "Jingle Bells'. She makes me sing her that song 10 times a day...before nap, before bed and whenever else she feels the need. OMG Santa knew that was her favorite song!

Boo? OH HELL NO was he even going near that creepy Santa with beard about to fall off any second (hey, you get what you pay for). I couldn't even get him to stand close enough to take a flipping picture with Santa and him in the same frame.



Oh well. He finally managed to shout just loud enough that he wanted a rocket ship for Christmas.

And a quick shout out to the maker of the kids awesomely adorable threads...Gracey Lou Designs! Not only is her stuff adorable, but it comes out great in the washing machine!!

Wordless Wednesday: Our visit with the Bunny (no, not the scary one)

We don't do big, scary costumes too well in this house.

Bubbi screaming Christmas 2010...




And Boo's turn Christmas 2010...

Last year's visit with the bunny was just Bubbi. Super cute. Boo finally got in the frame, but we had to bribe him by allowing him to hold a pen...looked like crap. Being the best mommy EVER, I can't find the pictures.

Here's my precious little lemurs 2011 Easter pic. Too cute, I know! I'm very pleased as they are both not screaming...they are smiling and looking in the right direction...a fluke? Probably, but I'll take it. They are sporting their cute outfits from Elle Dee (I just washed them and they still look new)!



And here's the unedited version (thank you Kim) showcasing Bubbi's hardcore bruises and the picture lady's hat that she loved (K. Walker Photography).

Coupon Code & Review: Tiny Toppings!

Check out this ADORABLE hat from Tiny Toppings Bubbi's modeling! Tiny Toppings is offering my readers
twenty percent off!!! Just use the coupon code BUBBIANDBOO20 when checking out of her etsy site. Hurry as it is only good for the month of April.

These are super cute for spring and cooler summer nights by the beach or bay (I don't live by one, but I hope we are going to Monterrey in August and spending a weekend in San Francisco in July - both get cold at night year round). Plus they make great newborn gifts as those little munchkins need a hat the first few weeks no matter how warm...and they make for cute pics! Also keep your eye out for girls clippies soon.

 She can custom make the size for any you see as well, so keep that in mind when your browsing her adorable goods. Be sure to like Tiny Toppings facebook page and tell her Bubbi and Boo sent you!

I hope to post some pictures of your little ones wearing her hats for Wordless Wednesday next month so be sure and submit them to me at ramonaselman@yahoo.com and put "tiny toppings" in the subject.

These are just a few pictures taken at home, but she'll be doing a professional shoot in the next few weeks.
