This morning Leila woke up, looked in her closet and was all “OMG! I’m fat and have nothing to wear!”… oh wait… that was me. For someone who doesn’t cook much I surely like to eat. And I was not going to miss a good Thanksgiving dinner even if I had to drive an hour for it. We got really lucky this year – my friend’s mom is an excellent cook and getting invited to their place for dinner on any occasion is like winning a lottery… not to mention on the National All-You-Can-Eat Holiday! I stuffed myself into the oblivion and then had some more.
Dinners like that always make me want to rush home and get busy making babies. It’s been almost nine months and my brain is still baby crazy. I can’t even explain it. All I do all day is think, see and plan babies. Babies are everywhere and everything is baby. It’s a problem…. I need an intervention. I am in my own la-la-land where I have lots of little Leilas with their husbands and their own little Leila’s. I don’t know how many Leilas I have, but it’s definitely more than two. The pregnancies were easy and I have lost all the weight before I even left the hospital. I love to cook and my children love my cooking…. well ok… that’s going too far… how about I have a personal chef and my children love his cooking? In my la-la-land all Leilas are sleeping through the night, eating their vegetables and we are all living happily every after.
Somebody, please stop me before I call octomom and we become BFFs…..






OMG, a table full of Leila!! Every baby was showing a sweet smile with wonderful table manner
I wish I were the grandma!
Sometimes you’re a little bit creepy (insert good-humored raised eyebrow here). I can dig that.
Happy Thanksgiving, though I’m afraid my weight loss efforts have come to a screeching, blubbering stop. Just, you know, until January.
(P.S. Also, there was a message on my reader that you switched domains, and now I can’t remember what your site looked like before, and wonder how you got your feed to follow you, and am perplexed.)
My husband didn’t know how to react to that picture, either… I can’t help myself… And the blog is all the same – I just switched from blogspot to wordpress, because everybody was doing it. I have no idea how everything switched – I just pressed the “import” button and two minutes later I had new blog. But so far I like it… I think.
For a second I thought I was seeing things, but then I realized you are just wacky!
I too am weirdly baby crazy. I’m insanely over-eager to have another one even thought I know I need to wait, I’m just chomping at the bit over here. I want a table full of Bea’s!
You are too funny! I had a similar topic conversation with my sister-in-law over the weekend about more babies. I would like more than two also (three to be exact =) Being the planning expert that she is, she informed me that I should get pregnant in the next six months! My jaw dropped, I just can’t imagine it right now. btw, Congrats on Leila sleeping through the night!!
Dude, you switched. Is wordpress better? Do you like it more? I’m considering it. Maybe…
Oh, that photo is totally freaky but I like it! I think baby thoughts all the time too. I have to stop myself from taking the aspirator after my husbands nose.
That is so funny! It reminds me of an octomom halloween costume I saw where the person got eight little baby dolls and stuck them all over herself. Little heads peeking out everywhere.
But not as cute as your little smiley-girl.
Lol! That is a funy picture of the multiple Leilas.
Oh my gosh, girl. Now that someone is sleeping through the night, does SOMEONE ELSE have a liiiiiittle too much time on her hands? But you are hilarious, thanks for cracking me up.
