PARIS and other funny things..

So yes people I am going to PARIS! I can hardly contain my self. I mean really Bill and I in the city of lights! I am so keyed up I might pop before I get there! My sister has wanted to go there since I was about 9 years old and only wish I could wrap her up and put her in my pocket!


It should be said that I am not a good flier. Especially by myself!!! I have a few ritual I like to go through. I like to look at the kids pictures and say a little prayer then hold on for dear life. Even little bumps make me NUTS! (see how wound up I am... count the exclamation marks!). I also don't like to use the bathroom on board. I know it is like a ten hour flight but I am afraid that I might get sucked out! I know it is irrational but still I try to run like hell out of that bathroom as quickly as I can, which leads to really weird looks.

Oh the best part is that I am going to EAT! Butter, croissants, fois gras anything and everything! I am not even thinking about points!

Speaking of that I have lost 3.6 pounds. I am hoping not to gain too much of it back as hope to do a lot of walking around there. Eiffel tower here I come!


We have had some events recently which is why I haven't written.

Our dear Jean took a tumble from her front steps and dislocated her heel. This is VERY hard to do and I will of course upload pictures and the FULL details. Word to the wise you don't want to see the picture!

Also, Kelly, exs new wife, (we like her better than him!) had the girls new baby sister. Malia The girls are over the top! I mean really excited. Vallerie is talking about her all the time. Victoria wants to bring her here with her so that she can live in Vic's pink room. Last night she was wired much like her mother now.... and we talked for a while on my bed. Victoria said Oh mom I love this girl bonding. Where does she get that!

So cute!

Funny story about Malia's middle name, it is Meoko it means beautiful child. I have no clue if that is how you spell it but here is Vallerie's pronunciation:

MEKOTO
Me-Ka latte
Me ca ca ( as in poop)
Mocha latte
Moo Ka Ka
Mekono
Me koo koo

I even think I heard Yoko Ono....

I was about to pee my pants! REALLY funny! She is so cute! Then my mom asked what does that mean Val,
Now Val looks at my mother like she has just asked her the stupidest question in the world and said.

"Baby middle name!"

Au revoir!
