I've noticed that my adorable little son is an eating machine lately! I think he eats more than I do (and still gets comments on how small he is...**sigh**). Anyway, I went and bought groceries today. That is my absolute least favorite chore. When I got home to unpack them, it seems that 75% of them are for him! Since when do kids eat this much?
I try to feed him healthy foods, so that's even more expensive. On the way home, I realized that things I would never even THINK of putting into his body, I gladly devour and then go on looking for the next thing to graze on. Why is it that as mommies, we always put our health and well-being last? I don't always particularly want the things I scarf down, but I eat them because they are easy and allow me to do whatever it is that the prince wants me to do next.
On another note, did I mention how totally psyched I am about the Desperate Housewives finale tonight? I am so praying that all of our questions are unanswered, but somehow I doubt it. The show came dangerously close to having so many underdeveloped plots going on at one time that I was annoyed, but after the hiatus, they came back with more wonderfully developed plotlines, and reeled me in a little further.
I guess I should go and make something to eat for my husband who should be home from work in about 30 minutes. Tonight is easy night (so I can have everything done in time for Desperate Housewives) and we are having muffalettas. Yummy. Also a bonus that Garrison can eat them too and loves them. I'll be serving his with a side order of Cheetos Puffs. Mine will be served with the wonderfully yummy Ranch flavored Wavy Lays....yum! My mouth is watering right now.
For all of you that have to go back into the working world tomorrow, I hope the rest of your weekend is great. For those of you who never stop working....I hope your day is a little more relaxed than normal.
Have a great night and tune in to Desperate Housewives tonight so we'll have something to talk about tomorrow! Oh, yeah, and Grey's Anatomy is after that. A wonderful show for anyone who hasn't caught it (and a little easier to come in on than DH).
Until tomorrow~
Melissa (and the little prince, Garrison)

Melissa
Melissa-Mom to LittleMan (4/04); wife to LuckyHusband; full-time toxicologist; full-time housekeeper; full-time domestic laundromat manager (washes all the clothes); full-time domestic finance manager (pays all the bills and yells at husband for spending too much money on fishing stuff); and Keeper of the Cheerios. Lives in a tiny town; spends tons of time with family; reads; enjoys crafts. Can change a diaper, fill a sippy cup, and put on a toddler's shoes in 15.4 seconds flat, all while calculating the impact of petroleum hydrocarbons to a nearby surface water body (watch for me in the Toddler Olympics on CBS this fall). Addicted to Dr. Pepper; Kit Kats; and pasta. To spot me in a crowd: I'm the one with frizzy messed-up hair, smeared graham crackers on my shirt; huge purse with a diaper peeking out, toddler on her hip, and camera in hand at all times.
