Is there anything more tantalizing to a three year old and an eighteen month old than a bunch of brightly colored gift bags?
Natalie spotted something right away. "Oh, Mommy! Can we open 'deeze and play with them? Please?"
Seriously? What kind of sister leaves brand-new Barbie and Ken wedding dolls out in the open for a three year old Barbie enthusiast to find?! (Kidding, Alison. In your defense, they were still in a gift bag. But you know they take after their nosy mommy.)
Then I caught Michaela Byrd drooling over Alison's new bread maker, a gift from my own mother-in-law.

Then I caught Michaela Byrd drooling over Alison's new bread maker, a gift from my own mother-in-law.
"Cake, caaaaake!" she kept repeating, like a zombie.
I didn't know what to do.
So I sat down and drooled with them.
Guess who got a breadmaker for her 8th wedding anniversary on Tuesday?
That's right, Moi.
I'm not feeling so green-eyed anymore, but I can't say the same for Natalie.
Maybe a loaf of fresh baked bread will make her feel better....
Ummmmm, the new "fresh bread" home scent......nothing better......

I'd be jealous, too!! After 28 years of marriage, all my wedding gifts are a little sad....

ReplyDeleteI so love my bread machine. I hope you enjoy yours.
ReplyDeleteOoooooh Amanda!! Don't you LOVE your bread machine? I've had mine about 10 years now and I still love it! My daughter used to say "What kind of bread are we having for supper tonight?" implying that we ate nothing but bread. I have since toned it down some. A tip...don't set the timer to make fresh bread for breakfast. You will NOT sleep that last hour because the bread smells soooo good!! lol Happy anniversary!...hugs...Debbie
ReplyDeleteOooh, I want a wedding Barbie and Ken! You can bake me some bread too, if you want! Or cake...I'm easy.
