It's time for Friday's Letters again!
Dear Zoo Animals: Wanted to warn you that you might hear some strange, high pitch sounds tomorrow morning. Don't worry, it's just Drew's excitement to see you. Be glad there is a cage between you and him.
Dear Nutella: Hate that I didn't try to prior to this year but hate that you can't be like 50 calories. I will still devour you though.
Dear Elmo: I'm so sorry that I leave you in a hot car all day just to be attacked at 5:30 when Drew gets in the car and spots you. At least you get a big kiss and hug each time, right?
Dear Drew: I'm worried you'll be a 4 year old that's still not potty trained. I realize you're not even 2.5 yet, but you don't seem to realize you can't just read books for hours on the potty. I'm not sure how to explain that you need to actually DO some business in there before expecting a sticker or stamp.
Dear Job: As much as I love you in general, I need you to not throw so much at me in one week again. Thankthelawd that tomorrow is the weekend and I can have a break from you.
Dear Blog friends: Just noticed the other day that I have over 500 followers. Let me just say that it warms the cockles of my heart. Oh, what's that? You don't really read anything, you just enjoy the pictures of my adorable kid? I guess I'd be in the same boat if I were you.
It blows my mind that so many people have made it so long without trying Nutella. Glad you are on the bandwagon and completely agree that it should be lower calorie!
ReplyDeleteBut don't you love those commercials that has the mom serving Nutella sandwiches to her kids and it's like "a wholesome, healthy hazelnut spread" and you're like WTF DUDE IT'S 500-CALORIE PER BITE CHOCOLATE DOPE!!! ...but whatever, commercial-mom!!
ReplyDeleteCute!!!!! Haha, I love Nutella too, but then I think it's funny that people are shocked by how many calories there are . . . . it is a chocolate, hazelnut, spread. What about that sounds super healthy (no matter what the commercial says)!!!!
ReplyDeleteNutella is not that great for you and it stinks. We have found out that we cannot give our 2 year old son any if we want him to nap. That stuff is like straight sugar to him for some reason. No other sweet treat does that to him. Potty training: hang in there! Our son was fully potty trained at a little over 2.5 and he rocked it. He was ready, we knew he was ready and it took like 2 weeks. It's worth it to just wait until you know for sure they are ready rather than dragging it out over months. Good luck though!!
ReplyDeleteI started potty training my kid at 2.5. She laid in the floor and cried and said she wanted her diaper. I told her I didn't care if she was wearing a diaper as she walked down the aisle at her wedding, I quit. The next day she started going all by herself. We have a few accidents now and then but I haven't bought diapers in about six months so hang in there. It'll come.
ReplyDeleteAlso, when she did "get it" she was hilarious. She hollered at me one day "Mommma, that's a dinosaur egg." They say the best stuff while going potty.
Yay for seeing the parents! Is is selfish of me to wish you were coming to KC to see them, rather than the other way around?
ReplyDeleteI can't even wrap my head around potty training. I have a terrible feeling it's going to be on big disaster for us.
I thought I'd hate Nutella because I'm a picky eater, but that shiz is good!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a fun weekend planned! Drew is so adorable! Love the pictures of the 2 of you by the campfire. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried Nutella for this exact reason. I just know I'll love it, and I'm already in a Very Serious Relationship with peanut butter. I just don't know if there's room (in my hips) for another love so strong.
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet pictures!! :) I have never had nutella, hmm maybe it's time.
ReplyDeleteYay for upcoming blueberry picking and looks like lots of zoos in Drew's future. Woohoo.
ReplyDeleteAnd date nights. We are trying to get one lined up for 7/6. I hope it works out.
Have so much fun at the zoo! It's one of Rey's favorite places to go! And yay for 500 followers! Go YOU!

Hi! Thanks for coming by my blog...I totally looked at the pictures from past posts :) Your son is adorable!! Guilty of never trying Nutella here...maybe I'm afraid of getting addicted :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun at the zoo!! Hope you have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI have the same problem with Simon and the potty. He sits there, does nothing, and cries for a treat.
ReplyDeleteI feel like I'm responsible for your post about work :( Sorry girl.
ReplyDeleteDid you do Nutella on your smores? That is the best!
