Hope everyone is still feeling ok after that spring-break bout of yuck.

Aahh – Steak ‘n Shake is my most very favorite restaurant in the whole world. I love their steakburgers and yumtious shakes.

I know the kids will look sooooooo sweet in their new outfits. Save me a pic!

I totally understand about the boy dressy clothes! The selection should get better as they get older, if that’s any consolation. On the other hand, like someone said about little girl clothes…yikes. Yes, the immodestyy is appalling as the sizes get just a little bigger. But right now? Size 3T? It rocks…that beautiful ballerina-type dress we got Grace for her b’day this month was $18 at Target!!

Why are kids ALWAYS sick with something over spring break. I don’t get it, but I hate it!

Wii Fit gives me a muffin top too, you are not alone. I hate it, but it actually makes me work a little harder.

The Wii is rude!. I played Wii Fit at a friends house. My friend is about 100 pounds dripping wet. SHe played first and then when I stepped on that board thing after her, the computer groaned! IT was awful!

I think it would really be neat if y’all could get a trip to McDaddy. I’ll be praying for you!

A lot of people have been sick this spring. I’m glad your boys had some fun over the break anyway.

I hear you on the lack of options for little boys’ dress clothes. And shoes–usually there are only one pair of dress shoes versus dozens of darling shoes for girls.

I don’t have a Wii, but I’ve heard the Fit can be condescending. Adding a muffin top is just mean!

Just to let you know, the outfit options for girls get a lot slimmer as they get older! It’s ridiculous! If you’re preparing your daughter for a life of work on Summer Street, then it’s not too bad….grrrr!! Yeah, what’s up with that pink? I see pink in my sleep, why would I want my boy wearing it?!? Glad your break went! Enjoy your week!

I hear you on the boy Easter clothing choices. However, I lucked out this year as we will be at WDW and we are not doing dress-up Easter clothes, so I got each kid a cute outfit at Gymboree with sunglasses and hats!

Anyway, I am so glad that you got your little surprise in the mail and I hope you enjoy everything. And of course, you may blog about it! In fact, I was hoping you would so I could hear all about what you thought of everything.

Have a great week…we are back to the daily school grind, too!

We took the kids to Steak and Shake yesterday. Where else can you feed five people for $20 where you look down to order instead of up, and there isn’t a germ-infestated play yard? (grant it, three of the five aren’t old enough to read, but still…) Also, after having two girls, it is a TOTAL change of pace buying Easter clothes for a boy. His outfit will be adorable (I found it at Children’s Place too, though not the cute vest pictured above), but I doubt McDaddy would approve. That actually crossed my mind when I chose it, made me chuckle a little.
