Sex & The City Movie Review

One of the perks of Phoebe being at the in-laws is the ability to go out on a weeknight. We went to see "Sex and the City" last night. There were some things I liked and some things I didn't like. There are minor spoilers here, so if you haven't seen the movie yet (why the h*ll not!) don't read any further.



Things I Liked
- The final outcome for Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte
- The ways Charlotte wasn't so perfect
- The clothes!!!! The Vivienne Westwood wedding dress was to die for!!!


Things I Didn't Like So Much
- The final outcome for Samantha (and she's my favorite character, so really not happy!!!)
- How Charlotte's daughter was hanging out with the girls all the time and they had to watch what they said. Brady was in some of those hang out times, but not as much as Lily.

I almost forgot to mention my ultimate favorite part, which is when Samantha notices Miranda's hair issue "down there" when they are all sitting in their swimsuits in Mexico. Very close to her exact words are "I could be on Death Row and not have that issue you have going on there!" Leo and I discussed that coming home from the movies. Especially remembering that when I was pregnant with Phoebe, there was a point I stopped shaving because it was just too hard to reach. Well the actual day my water broke (I was only 36 weeks) I got really frustrated with what was going on "down there" and sat on the bottom of the shower stall that morning and took care of business. Funny thing is I didn't remember until a year later when I watched the video of her birth. Leo and I were watching it and all of a sudden it hit me "I was shaved completely bald and no one said a thing!" LOL. I guess that was my version of nesting. So ladies that check my blog that are pregnant, if you hit an unexplainable urge to shave parts of your body that the sun doesn't (usually) shine, you may be nesting!

Hmm, I actually never have an urge to shave down there, although I do sometimes suck it up for swimsuit season. We'll see if that changes...

That is so freaking funny, certainly brings a new level to nesting!

I really liked the movie too. I especially liked that they seemed older and they weren't out doing all the same parties and events like in the show. I thought it was also a little darker than the TV show and not as funny. And I thought they made Charlotte seem like an idiot in the movie - no substance at all. Well that's my two cents!

Oh that is so funny! I am so low maintenance that I neglect that very important area.

I didn't like the way Lily didn't say much and just sat around unlike most three years I know - just hanging?! Normally it's all-about-me at that age - not about hanging with adults. Yeah, I know - it's only a movie!

But I loved the SATC movie & would see it again. I'd share more but don't want to spoil the movie for anyone!

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...
