She was doing mini portrait sessions as a fundraiser for a local preschool both my daughters attended. After we had our session with her went home and tried to takes some photos with our yellow lab Cooper. The kids were a little upset because they wanted to bring him to our session because he is part of the family. The only problem is he is one year old and still in his "puppy" stage. Well needless to stay we tried everything to get him to sit with the kids (even donuts LOL). We got a kick out of doing this and it was good for a few laughs. Maybe we will try again at Christmas? Here is what we got...<br />

(The best part was it was sort of unplanned and we were at the same place at the same time LOL). I love starting my day with coffee, a yummy Cinnamon Crunch bagel with Hazelnut cream cheese and some great laughs. It always amazes me how "normal" I feel once I chat with friends. The hard time I had with my girls or with their homework the night before make me realize I am not alone! It is fun to swap stories and see how similar they all are.<br />

You see, I do work in her class about once a month, but as a working parent. Today I had more interaction with the kids and we even got to play together during free time. The kids were really into playing "Doctor" and loved taking my blood pressure and giving me shots. Although some were not so gentle with me. LOL. I love be able to see my daughter play with her friends and teachers (who she adores)! She was so proud to show Mommy off as the other teacher.<br /><br />After school we made a stop at Dunkin Donuts (of course I needed a coffee after my busy morning playing) and I treated the girls to a donut. Then we made our way to Geissler's to pick up a few things for dinner. We went home and enjoyed a nice lunch together. Then came nap time-my favorite time of day! Don't get me wrong, I do love to spend time with my girls, but I need my alone time too! This is the time I spend reconnecting with friends online, while making other new connections too. I get the chance to follow up with phone calls to people interesting in working from home. It is great to able to connect with strangers who have many similar goals to me. It is very gratifying to know I can help another person achieve their dreams.<br /><br />After nap time, the girls and I played LRC together. (This is a very cool dice game they love to play). Then we all made dinner and waited for Daddy to come home. We all enjoyed a very chatty dinner together (that's what you get when you have two girls). When we are done cleaning up from dinner, I got ready to go to my first official Zumba class. I met up with my friends and we were busy shaking our butts for an hour. I came home took a quick shower and put my girls to bed.<br /><br />Now I get to relax and return a few more emails before I call it a night. All in a day's work!!!

It was an amazing story, but I think she wrote this book about me! Isn’t it funny how that works sometimes? You see, I have had this book to read for a couple of months now. I meet Elise online a few months ago. I really wanted to attend one of her book readings, but the timing just didn’t work out. I finally picked up the book a few days ago, and I couldn’t put it down! I think the main character Lizzie could be my twin. The truth is many of the qualities and thoughts Lizzie has are just like my own. Without giving away too much of the story, Elise touched on some of the conflicts I often face as a mom and wife. I have been struggling these last few weeks during this very long winter break from preschool. I feel like I was meant to read this book NOW. It spoke to me in ways I don’t think would have touched me a few weeks ago. I want to thank Elise for her wonderful writing and the great character she created in Lizzie. One thing I would love to share from the book is actually called the “Send Off” at the end of the book. This just shows the brilliant writing and humor from Elise (I hope she doesn’t mind me sharing this).<br /><br />Five Things to Expect When You Give Up “Work” to Be a Mum:<br /><br />1. Don’t expect to read a book or chat on the phone or even have a lunch hour. Goofing off simply won’t be tolerated by your new boss. Your time, every minute of it, now belongs to somebody far more exacting than Donald Trump.<br /><br />2. Don’t expect to become a better cook. The more time and energy you spend on preparing food, the more hostile will be its reception. Best to stick to scrambled eggs and macaroni.<br /><br />3. Don’t expect to be able to follow current affairs en route to becoming a more stimulating dinner party guest. You won’t want children overhearing that there’s been a bomb blast in Irag, for one thing; for another, the politics of your PTA will seem far more gripping and relevant than anything going on nationally, never mind internationally.<br /><br />4. Don’t expect to know what songs are playing on the radio. By the time you have leisure to listen to anything but the Wiggles, you’ll be saying things like, “This isn’t music; this is noise.”<br /><br />5. Don’t expect to have the time to organize all your photos into albums. Yes, you’ll be taking so many pictures that you’ll barely have a moment to view them as a digital slide show, but no, you won’t be lingering over acid-free paper in the crafts store. You’ll be buying Play-Doh.Meg Munsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16831993615353820769noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4426024123121620596.post-76199007980589297622008-12-31T15:00:00.004-05:002008-12-31T15:06:49.557-05:00Wordless Wednesday- Enjoying the First Snow Storm<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicgw82lWSc0ytfIwxNmmUSoq9-TotDqiZZu9om03Lzvm8Sz3GY2JbNDBpV38Qg32Ilbw6I6Mx0cyyWo29TzoJH6ylZNprtEIFByM8soPrgREmYfeHbTKRQhGWlwJ7PBjwVOdFzcs_mKWfL/s1600-h/IMG_1480.JPG"><img style="display:block;

Not my hair, but my daughter’s. You see, my daughter wanted to get her hair cut short like her friends, but I was just really starting to like it the length it was, especially after the lat MAJOR haircut. (For those of you that don’t know, my daughter decided to give herself a haircut last April right before her fourth birthday. She was really into having me do her hair different ways. I never thought in a million years she would cut it herself! You see, I left her alone in the kitchen cutting a project from school and I came back to 6 inch swirls of hair on the floor under her. I freaked out!!! I immediately called two friends; one to help console me and the other a hairdresser. My friend came over about an hour later and cut six to eight inches off my daughter’s hair! My daughter thought she looked so cute and showed it off all afternoon. I admit it did look cute on her, but I loved her long hair.)<br /><br />After months of finally getting used to the shoulder length hair, she wanted to go shorter. I figured she is old enough to decide what she wants. We made the appointment and someone new cut it this time (which made me even more nervous). My daughter had a huge grin on her face the whole time it was being cut! She kept asking if it was short like her friend’s hair. When it was all cut and even dried she beamed from ear to ear as she showed it to me. She LOVED it and said she looked so cute. She asked me what I thought (although I truly hated it, I couldn’t tell her). I simply told her I liked it better longer, but as long as she liked it that is all that matters. I think I was so shocked at how different she looked with short hair. She no longer looked like a baby, or even a little girl…she looked all grown up! I think I was mostly sad because I could no longer do pigtails, braids or even ponytails. Why do they have to grow up so fast?<br /><br />Well, two weeks later I think I have finally got used to her new look. She does look cute, just older and not like a little girl. She still LOVES it and that is all that matters. Besides, it will grow LOL!</span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div align="left"><span style="color:#ffffff;">Here are some pictures...</span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#ffffff;"></span></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-BI5tr-_0N4XSDGPcSOVvwMWMb0dISUIhqMIE7HXtazW6A-CtmWStl-fmp0FoT1Rs-WzN4uKjYQNsa4sG6vXd-tqS2BhgSb8Q4DbRUxetygj3YxxrJiV5FhMxKast_tvGoqLLEMQ7D68y/s1600-h/IMG_0009.JPG"><span style="color:#ffffff;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268989433755376146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-BI5tr-_0N4XSDGPcSOVvwMWMb0dISUIhqMIE7HXtazW6A-CtmWStl-fmp0FoT1Rs-WzN4uKjYQNsa4sG6vXd-tqS2BhgSb8Q4DbRUxetygj3YxxrJiV5FhMxKast_tvGoqLLEMQ7D68y/s400/IMG_0009.JPG" border="0" /></span></a><span style="color:#ffffff;"> Old hair style.</span></div><div align="center"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkdj4R7lz9SOTBSj8QknSqv5qWFqnSV3ohsxhdeFN_sLzWE0ApG0ZP5JQP4WfI34NdmX0J9ejMwKGysTtGNLC93ZNxbAJ28kowLLn36m_170tsFl_kYso0CIIqLSfc2oePwUEe6QBBsdzk/s1600-h/IMG_0906.JPG"><span style="color:#000000;"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5268989430697760050" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkdj4R7lz9SOTBSj8QknSqv5qWFqnSV3ohsxhdeFN_sLzWE0ApG0ZP5JQP4WfI34NdmX0J9ejMwKGysTtGNLC93ZNxbAJ28kowLLn36m_170tsFl_kYso0CIIqLSfc2oePwUEe6QBBsdzk/s400/IMG_0906.JPG" border="0" /></span></a><span style="color:#cc33cc;">The New Haircut!<br /></span></div>Meg Munsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16831993615353820769noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4426024123121620596.post-73373574406229662182008-11-12T20:09:00.003-05:002008-11-12T20:14:16.297-05:00Wordless Wednesday- Sisters<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil2RnyXihhN7sbOgzZoM0KNaEzIdm8KBPR4ZKqoml4ojseVmRfznSWERXJ-l4KYmhvAxeZgqF8cuQH1n48iQUvUus1wOOFnMjmxghDlBt012AV6T69xcSo3AHioM_NZSHdj70ZXrdc8zE1/s1600-h/kiss.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267943353337266930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 267px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil2RnyXihhN7sbOgzZoM0KNaEzIdm8KBPR4ZKqoml4ojseVmRfznSWERXJ-l4KYmhvAxeZgqF8cuQH1n48iQUvUus1wOOFnMjmxghDlBt012AV6T69xcSo3AHioM_NZSHdj70ZXrdc8zE1/s400/kiss.jpg" border="0" /></a> To see more Wordless Wednesday photos, visit <a href="http://www.5minutesformom.com/">5 Minutes For Mom</a>.<br /><div></div>Meg Munsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16831993615353820769noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4426024123121620596.post-50765530690662835342008-11-11T15:29:00.010-05:002008-11-11T15:52:02.697-05:00Tackle It Tuesday- My Basement<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg22p59x1Fz-LFfbKvaD0vedJCSYxnmGH5XLf_An2jNLQCv1MrsqWsSWCntquj7-NBjq_0wXFHO33tUqJaDKxGkF6Jjdzj_-_iSzd2meD6_a8Ckcs1B149G8zn0vYhetO9E3ZzXo1elti9p/s1600-h/TTBigButton.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267503067980704690" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 215px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg22p59x1Fz-LFfbKvaD0vedJCSYxnmGH5XLf_An2jNLQCv1MrsqWsSWCntquj7-NBjq_0wXFHO33tUqJaDKxGkF6Jjdzj_-_iSzd2meD6_a8Ckcs1B149G8zn0vYhetO9E3ZzXo1elti9p/s400/TTBigButton.jpg" border="0" /></a> I have been truly inspired by other "Tackle It Tuesday" projects, that I decided to work on something BIG this week...my basement. In my younger years I think I used to be a pack rat (which of course I get from my mother). I started thinking, "Do I really need those blue dishes I haven't used in four years? What about all the shot glasses I used to collect?" The answer is definitely NO!!! I spent the morning purging many items. I wish I had taken pictures of my basement before, but I was too ambitious and started before the camera was out. I have a trash pile of three lawn and leaf size bags, 3 regular garbage bags and several other items ready to go to the dump this weekend. My motto is if I haven't used it in a year-toss it! I feel like I accomplished so much today.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwKd8ZZh_AIsPkfDeDWKjc25TcnuWE3I47jRGjOoARd3s334bdN_3Dq1H4ppGWpkFvpfKVR36zhwChi3PcKNFOnPbl03SCMD4jaN5RNLHv1aoY4apBR-mNaiwUJq0vAFriyKfp0PrH71eR/s1600-h/IMG_0937.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5267503060866689554" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwKd8ZZh_AIsPkfDeDWKjc25TcnuWE3I47jRGjOoARd3s334bdN_3Dq1H4ppGWpkFvpfKVR36zhwChi3PcKNFOnPbl03SCMD4jaN5RNLHv1aoY4apBR-mNaiwUJq0vAFriyKfp0PrH71eR/s400/IMG_0937.JPG" border="0" /></a> All my candle stock is organized and easy to get to.

It started on Thursday when Shannon and I made Spider Cupcakes together for her snack at Preschool. She had such a great time baking and decorating them; she couldn't wait to show her teachers! On Halloween morning we got her dressed in her Alice in Wonderland costume we purchased online at the Disney Store. (She loves to shop online LOL and I wasn't going to the store again for an hour to look over more costumes. One trip to Target was enough!) We picked her friend up for preschool and I laughed the whole ride there listening to them sing in my car. We got to school and she showed off her costume and of course her CUPCAKES! I was one of the working moms for the day so I got to stay with her. We sang, danced in circle time and she got to be the weather person, which is her favorite job. We decorated our own paper jack-o-lanterns and played bingo. The best part was the special Halloween games they had for the kids. The moms were in charge of the donut eating game. The kids had to eat a small donut of a string, but with NO HANDS! It was so cute. Some of them were pros and ate it their first try and others took longer and their faces were covered in white powder. I was able to get pictures of all of them (which Shannon and I used to make a poster for her class we brought in today.)<br /><div><br /><br /><div>When school was over we dropped her friend off at home and picked up Rebecca. We stayed for a while where I had the best cup of coffee and held the cutest newborn for almost two hours while I chatted with my good friend. The girls played and made a big mess, but fun was had by all! So much fun that they didn't want to leave.<br /></div><br /><br /><div>After nap time, I got the girls ready in their costumes. Shannon decided she didn't want to wear her Alice in Wonderland, but instead her Jaguar costume from her dance recital last year. We put this costume on her and got Rebecca all dressed as Tinkerbell (her favorite dress up item she wears everyday), and headed outside for some photos. After some photos, Shannon decided she wanted to where something else. We tried on an Angel, Devil and FINALLY the Flower Girl! (Boy am I glad I ordered that costume online!)<br /></div><br /><br /><div>We headed over a friends house for a pizza party. This is where Shannon changed once again...I never can keep clothes on her for long and we go through LOTS of laundry. Why should Halloween be any different? I did eventually get her back in her costume and we headed to another friends house to go trick or treating. We took some more photos of the kids and made our way to the tractor they made for the kids to ride while trick or treating. The girls loved the hayride and they even learned the "Trick or treat smell my feet" song!!! We spent about an hour going from house to house and they couldn't wait to see what they got next. I ran into many friends and it was nice seeing all the kids in their costumes. This was the neighborhood to be on Halloween night! Both side of the street were lined with cars and everyone knew everyone.<br /></div><br /><br /><div>After trick or treating we headed back to the house and all the kids played for an hour. (More like ran around crazy from all the candy they ate!) We headed home and I put the girls right to bed. The best part was they slept in late the next morning! What more could a mom ask for?</div></div>Meg Munsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16831993615353820769noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4426024123121620596.post-6473461128804382332008-10-22T21:42:00.005-04:002008-10-22T21:47:40.987-04:00Wordless Wednesday- Peaceful Walk<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_TPgpQUBjLrG_AIsCgz_Wfo-0fmYLDr4GuebwC07oL4P4KHFB0kOeSWEIePZNv_OUzKustjSl9hN6KO-f4vcwh6_E5BU7PZe-sJlJBUaNKE28pegmv7lD4qmg9Uga445gtKvX7Dm70tNJ/s1600-h/DSC06878.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5260159510690550146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_TPgpQUBjLrG_AIsCgz_Wfo-0fmYLDr4GuebwC07oL4P4KHFB0kOeSWEIePZNv_OUzKustjSl9hN6KO-f4vcwh6_E5BU7PZe-sJlJBUaNKE28pegmv7lD4qmg9Uga445gtKvX7Dm70tNJ/s400/DSC06878.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />To view more Wordless Wednesday Photos, visit <a href="http://www.5minutesformom.com/">5 Minutes For Mom.</a>Meg Munsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16831993615353820769noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4426024123121620596.post-28719016033200411042008-10-17T20:59:00.007-04:002008-10-17T21:37:54.357-04:00SanDisk Point and Shoot Film Festival- Twirling FriendsSanDisk is having a video contest of videos taken using your point and shoot camera as well as <a href="http://www.5minutesformom.com">5 Minutes For Mom</a>.
