Baby Mama Drama Queen Has Landed in Ethiopia

I usually don't get to report baby news first and I don't have Facebook (yet), so I may not be the first, but I just got off of Skype with Robbin AND she just came back (to the hotel) from seeing LuLu.  She uploaded a video for me and can I tell you Scotland Lulako is amazingly beautiful!  

She was all smiles for her Mommy!  Robbin said she did not cry one time.  You know Robbin is not very emotional (oh, sorry Robbin...that is our little secret) and doesn't cry so one of her friends that traveled with her (two went) cried and when she called me, I cried!  Can you believe it...I cried.  What a Wuss!!!!!  Robbin laughed at us both.  

Technology is amazing and I love it!  If I hear anything else I'll let you know.

What You Do When You Don't Have Kids

One of my friends doesn't have any kids.  She says she may want to "have" one but she isn't married.  She just turned 43.  To satisfy her child urge she got a dog last year.  Now, I know that dogs are like kids, but her dog gets treated like Baby I will (ok, almost).  He goes to camp, the salon, has a dog walker, special meals, etc.  She was even considering having a nose surgery to open up his nasal passage some (deviated septum?).  He did have a few surgeries last year which set her back a cool $6k; he is still a baby not even 2.  Whew.

By the way, his daycamp fees are the same as what you would pay for your child to go to daycare.  Following are pictures of her dog from daycamp playing soccer, with the Easter Bunny and on an Easter egg hunt.  Hilarious!

On a side note: my mother is considering giving me her dog.  You better believe, as much as I love that dog, Mr. Pepper Fox will not participate in any daycamp unless it is in my backyard and it involves chasing a squirrel, cat or one of those big a@@ opossum.
