The end of a good day...

The Indochine tasted as good as ever. My spring rolls were delish so were my toasted sesame wraps. I was stressed about taking Lula with me because she's at an age where I don't really want to take her anywhere. She's a bit of a diva and she's not afraid to show it. I've been trying to leave her home more often and she's not liking it one bit. I decided to leave in the competent hands of Marissa (babysitter), with Taylor as backup I figured we be ok. We had only planned to be gone for a little over two hours but that didn't work out so well. Taylor called me just as I was taking my first yummy bite of delicious sesame wrap to tell me that Lula was hysterical and they couldn't calm her down. Apparently this had been going on for some time and they just didn't know what else to do. So I scarfed down my wrap and asked for the check and off we rushed to get the little bugger. Of course as soon as I walked in the door she was all smiles and giggles. All the way home she was just giggling away in the car saying "mama, mama, mama" this girl has serious attachment issues.
Once I got home we had cake and ice cream with the kids. They get so excited to give Alan and I presents. It's the sweetest thing. Alan took them all to the mall last week to pick presents out and they did not disappoint. I had dropped enough hints that my subliminal messages stuck and they got me exactly what I wanted. Taylor's really good about keeping the boys on track and steers them away from gifts like golf clubs or camping equipment. I'm loving my new perfume and my giraffe print purse. Alan knocked it out of the park by getting me the coveted apple green velvet sofa I'd been wanting as a studio prop. They really are to good to me!
