I’m happy to announce that Meredith celebrated her birthday with TWO friends at Build-a-Bear yesterday. (The dramatic set-up is here.) Long story shortened: After I gave up on Mom #2, I left a message for Mom #3. Less than 20 minutes later, Mom #2 called and we set up a plan. Shortly after we hung up, Mom #3 called, and we set up the same plan. (Let’s never speak of this again, shall we? So much completely unnecessary drama! (As most mom drama of this nature is, I suppose.))
Most importantly, both girls were absolutely delightful.
Gabby: Mrs. Pudding, I think we have a lot in common. Do you like to shop at Target?
Me: I do!
Gabby: I DO TOO!!!!!!
Josie: When I was in kindergarten we had Show and Tell every Friday. When they moved me up to first grade, I found out that we don’t have Show and Tell any more. And that’s disappointing. BUT, my dad is down at the book fair, and if he can find Where the Red Fern Grows, I won’t be disappointed any more.
Meredith: I was going to build a bunny today, but when I saw the pony, my heart melted right down into my lungs!
So, anyway. All is well. AND this week will find me attending my first PTO meeting, rushing to a dentist appointment at 7:00 in the morning, and visiting with Bossy at Bailey’s Chocolate Bar. It doesn’t get much better than that.

I just put up a new Tropicana Juicy Rewards Program. (AND I’m giving away another $50 Visa gift card!) Follow this link! ‘ ‘ ‘text/javascript’>
I’m so glad it all worked out.
P.S. I like to shop at Target too.
So glad it all worked out! (I think I would have fit in on this outing …. not only do I like to shop at Target, but MY heart melts into my lungs when I see ponies, TOO!)
Ooh, you guys are rolling the red carpet for Bossy. I planned the KC meetup and we’re going to a neighborhood pizza joint that has a good beer selection. :)
Envious of your Bossy meetup!! Have fun!
Glad that the girls had lots of birthday fun and that it all worked out in the end!! (has erased the mama drama from my memory already)
I am truly and utterly jealous of your meet-up. This is a must for me sometime! I drooled just reading the menu.
I’m so glad build-a-PONY!!!! went so well.
Gabby, I think we have a lot in common. I also love to shop at Target.
Not only do I like to shop at Target, my daughter is a manager at Target.
Glad to hear the birthday was a success.
I’m so glad the birthday went so well! and I also love to shop at Target and Where the Red Fern Grows made me cry like a child. Hysterical crying.
I love Target’s knickers. Actually, they don’t belong to Target, they belong to me. But I love that Target sells them to me. Ahem. Glad about the play date children and very glad I don’t have any (children, that is). Life is complicated enough. Well, yours certainly is!
YAY for you and Meredith and Harper! Have a great time with Bossy!
Aw, yay! I’m happy it all worked out and that people love Target as much as I do. :D
Lafayette Square is absolutely perfect.
Nicely done. Have fun!
So glad it all worked out. Now I’m going to find out what your Juicy Juice thing is and get my $50gift card and head to Target.
So glad it worked out and your girls had fun!

I just wanted to tell you…I am setting up my new computer and when I bookmarked you…I put you on Top Sites.
“my heart melted right down into my lungs”
That’s hilarious! And adorable. Things like that make me want to have kids. Though I fully realize there’s much more than free stellar quotes that comes with that.
