If I pissed anybody off these past two weeks with my tales of pristine beaches and hotel sex, I apologize. It will most likely never happen again. And in case you missed it, while we were away, Mazzy said "Mama" over Skype which was AWESOME. Until we came home and she replaced "Mama" with her new favorite word—"iPad". Well, maybe not replaced, but definitely saying it just as often. And no, I'm not joking. Guess you guys weren't the only ones mad about my vacation.
What else happened besides the complete abandonment of my child in favor of a lounge chair by the pool?
• Mazzy exposed my pasty legs for your viewing pleasure
• My husband enlightened us with his hotel breakfast buffet strategies (and made you all jealous that I get to be married to a man with such a wealth of knowledge)
• I launched a campaign to "SAVE SURI'S FEET"
• Which are without a doubt much prettier than MINE
• My husband's feet didn't fare well either thanks to an encounter with "The Porcupine of the Sea"
• Dr. B kept our kids in bed right before preparing them for their eventual replacements
• I said "hmmm" one to many times (OR did I not say it enough???)
• And most importantly, I gave you LIFE-ALTERING fashion advice
If anybody tries the Men's Skinny Jeans thing and it works out for them, please let me know. And if you want to fully support my efforts to SAVE SURI'S FEET— grab the button below for your blog.

Have a good weekend!

you are so funny! nothing like having an “off” week in the comments department to really send one’s self into a spiral of self doubt. the thing that gets me is that I see people are reading, but the lack of commments kills me! ANYWAY, I’m glad you went on vacation! And that pic is gorgeous! As soon as it stops snowing, we all must organize an NYC gathering of bloggers…if only to prop each other up during the commenting dry season.
Oh sweetie. Not “pissed”. Jealous, but not “pissed”. I guess in the “motherhood” land, we want to feel more like “Holly crap, you haven’t slept, shaved, had sex in a year? ME TOO!”. Which is why our single friends, you know the ones that vacation and dine and shower don’t feel as close to us anymore. You crossed into “single people” land and for that you must be punished by shot period of awkward reader’s silence. Welcome back thou!
I would LOVE to get together. I will even trek through the snow to do it.
Awkward silence noted. Fun over. Grooming neglect re-commenced.
