Two days...

Two days from now I will be at Paris showing the line. Our flight leaves tomorrow at 7am, so I'm guessing I probably will only sleep for a couple hours being that I'll have to be up around 4:30ish - If I sleep at all.
So, I'm nervous. Very. I have a lot on the line. Enough said.
One of the worst parts of this is that I don't get to see Jaxie for a week. He's going to come to the store today to visit for a bit, but then I won't see him until next Saturday as he's going to New Jersey to visit his grandparents for a week. I've never, ever been away from him for more than a day, so I just can't imagine not seeing him for an entire week. I'm praying that I'll be busy enough at the show that I won't think about it that much...
I need everyone's positive thoughts and prayers. Just a little positive energy from all of you that read this...

Two pieces of b&b news...

First, the wonderful Ali Kaplan wrote up a great little ditty of an article about us in today's Pioneer Press! We so much appreciate her support!



Second, Butters has found a new favorite play place - the bathroom. Specifically, the bathroom next to the toilet. This skeeves me a bit for obvious reasons. He loves to unroll the toilet paper and attempt to flush the toilet. Yesterday, he managed to pull what looked like a snotty tissue out of the garbage and put it in his mouth...

Halloween

Halloween is always interesting...kids hopped up on sugar, dressed up as either scary little goblins or pretty little princesses. We always go to my Mother's house for Halloween because she lives in a neighborhood where there are a lot of kids and all of the houses celebrate, which means lots of candy for the little ones. My oldest loves it. He's 11, and loves being as scary as possible. My nephew on the other hand (he's 3), ran and screamed as soon as the first kids came to the door and had to go home. It was Butter's first Halloween - he was a dinosaur...
