NA NA NA NA NA

Pretty sure I am going to win the $20 million LottoMax Jackpot on Friday....just throwing it out there.

Went for Lucas' 1 year checkup yesterday. After waiting for almost an hour (when I clearly had an appointment) we finally saw the doctor. Poor guy had to get 4, yes 4, needles. 3 of the normal 1 year immunizations and a seasonal flu shot. That is one needle per limb. After the second needle Lucas was screaming "NA NA NA NA NA NA" at the top of his lungs, which was kind of a funny cry, but I still felt so bad for him. Don't think he was traumatized by the whole ordeal. After lunch and a solid nap, good as new.

We may or may not have stopped at McDonalds when we were at Walmart that afternoon for some ice cream, just in case he was still feeling bad because of his needles. McDonalds inside Walmart is a hilarious place. I mean the people that eat there are pretty hilarious. I won't go into detail, but lets just say that I am pretty sure the people that eat there do so on a regular basis, like every time they go to Walmart to pick up a new wardrobe. Geez Amber so judgmental. Yes, yes I am. I am allowed to judge because I was looking super glam in my jeans and bunnyhug.

Speaking of looks, I look extra fab today with my quasimodo eye. My skin has been breaking out lately (must be all of the stress of staying home and trying to enjoy my last few weeks of mat leave) so I used this benzoyl peroxide lotion on my face. It has been forever since I have used something like that and I seem to have forgotten that I am allergic to benzoyl peroxide. Woke up with my right eye swollen almost shut. Yep, just the one eye. Looks hot. Every time I blink it is a struggle to open my eye again because my eyelid is all huge. Awesome.

Christmas baking I want to do:

Peppermint Chocolate Cupcakes
Gingerbread Cupcakes
Vanilla Cupcakes with Eggnog Buttercream
Snowflake Cupcakes
Gingersnaps
Biscotti (so excited to try this one, biscotti is my new favourite food)
Peppermint Brownies
Sugar Cookies
Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies (you know, the peanut butter cookies with a chocolate kiss on top? mmmmmmm)
Peppermint Marshmallows

That is a lot of baking. Two problems: 1) Going back to work is definitely going to cut into my baking time. 2) Avoiding temptation after all of the baking is done and my freezer is filled with sweets.

  1. You are hilarious! I am glad I'm not the only one who engages in the occasional "trailor trash" lunch with my kids.

    Also making lists of what to bake for Christmas!
