My name is Mindy, and I'm a float-aholic...

So I know I should be sleeping, or at least on my way to dreamland, as I do have three (yep, count 'em, three) sleeping children... but I have to quickly note some things that have been going on, before I forget (momnesia).
I am addicted to floats... root beer, orange soda, sherbet and sprite... if it's a carbonated beverage, and ice cream, chances are I want it. Good example: lunches lately, what the girls want, I don't, but a float sounds great! I thought this craving would be one that ended once the placenta was delivered, but nope, it continues. I have 3 cans of my carbonated tasty beverages left, I will try to refrain from buying anymore drinks that would inspire me to want a float.
Why isn't "Ben & Jerry's" giving me any problems though???
Lynn: Kindergarten doctor and dentist appointments this week :( It's really happening! She is getting too smart for her own good. The other night, as I was eating a float and talking with Mer in the kitchen, she came upstairs and said, "I know what sex is... it's when you kiss and you are naked." We asked her where she learned that, she said her brain. I know she hasn't witnessed any of that kind of monkey-business at our house... not in the last... almost 6 months anyway...
Ashley: I got up 5 times with Ash in the night last night. The nocturnal visits ranged with reasoning anywhere from "my room stinks, spray it with Febreeze please" (must have inherited that nose from Lynn...), to "the laundry basket at the end of the hallway where I can't see it unless I am out of my bed, is scaring me"... I got up with Peyton only once...
Peyton: Is rolling from her tummy to her side! She is trying so hard to go from her back to... well, anywhere but her back... her little left arm and leg shake so bad, all of those muscles all tensed-up. Her face is trying to help her too...
Okay, I'll go to bed now...

I love ice cream and coke floats!!!!!

You have got to love school they learn things to early, sad. I love Febreeze. I febreezed the dogs once because they smelled so bad and a bath wasn't any time soon.
I know not good to do.

PS.I don't think I can deal with the all that snow, guess you will have to move, ha. Have a great day!!!!!

Thanks for starting me on a craving for a float! Crazy you!

School is such a wonderful thing, but it sure can be hard to realize that your kids are hearing and learning things that you don't necessarily want them to know yet!

I love floats too.. after I had Hayden I had to go to the training table at least once a week for a float and their cheese fries. Yumm.... I Still have those cravings after having Kimmy but I know it's not very healthy so I try to restrain myself. It does help that they closed the training table up here. I'm mad, but It's easier to resist.
