The pictures are taken from my Blackberry. The stories are from my life. Here's my little way of remembering...
CRAZY Weekend
Check out Liam's face paint! How INSANE is that??? Usually a face painter draws a butterfly or something rather simple. THIS! This is like art!
Bill took the kids to an Oral B event (which I am writing up for INO Mommy tomorrow) at the Children's Museum of NYC and they had an artist on hand.
Natalie had an amazing look as well, but she wanted to wash it off right away. Bill didn't even get a chance to take a pic. :( Sorry I missed it.
I will write more about the 3 parties we attended (one that I almost MISSED - thank goodness my friend emailed me in the AM).
Spencer Pratt Is Following Me On Twitter

I woke up this morning and found this in my inbox. Spencer Pratt is following me on Twitter. LOL! Gotta love it. I'm so tempted to DM him... so very, very tempted.
Liam And His Trains

Once a week, Natalie has ballet which leaves Liam with a little alone time. I took him to Barnes and Nobles for the hour and he was in train heaven. No kids were up in the kid area which meant a whole lotta Thomas all to himself. Happy Happy Camper.
Finally A Press Event In Long Island

I GET why everything is always done in NYC. After all, it's MY fault my commute is so long. I'm the one who moved all the way out here.
BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT when I found out there was an event in GARDEN CITY - I almost died. I met up with a few blogger buddies and AJ Wright to talk about their store redesign and launch of a West Hempstead location and BOY did I have fun.
It took place in Novita, the same restaurant I had my son's christening! Talk about my neck of the woods. Everyone was complaining about how LONG the cab rides were. One girl was in the car for 3 hours - and I had a grin on from ear to ear. It took me about 3 minutes to get there.
Now they understand what I go through getting into the city during rush hour. Every event is usually around 5 or 5:30. The commute from where I live to NYC during rush hour is 1.5 hours at least. Not fun.
Best night ever. I have a gift card to giveaway and will do that in the coming weeks. My contest schedule is pretty booked at the moment. But stay tuned!
Off To Get An MRI

I'm not freaking out because my guess is the doctor is just being overly cautious. He was a bit concerned about the frequency of the migraines - but said not to worry just yet.
So, I've made an appt for next week for all the fun to begin. I know this will just end up with me filling out a prescription. So I truly am not scared.... well, maybe just a little.
